Influence of temperature on the radon concentration distribution in ramp under low-speed wind field: A numerical simulation study

By introducing the parameters of radon exhalation rate and radon diffusion coefficient, the distribution of radon concentration field on ramp under the condition of superposition of temperature field and flow field is simulated. The simulation results show that the distribution of radon concentration in the ramp under the condition of low-speed ventilation is greatly affected by the temperature field and flow field, and the change of radon exhalation caused by temperature is the main factor leading to the change of radon concentration in the ramp. The change of temperature will cause the overall increase of radon concentration in the ramp. Under the condition of constant flow field, the radon concentration in the chamber is more than two times higher than the average radon concentration in the ramp. Some areas severely exceeded the limit.
