Asphalt and Paraffin Scale Deposit Measurement by Neutron Back Diffusion Using 252Cf and 241Am-Be Sources
Hydrocarbon deposits, often found in oil or polymer industries, are very difficult to detect by the usual inspection techniques of gamma radiography or x-ray radiography methods. The density and atomic number of pipe walls are much higher than that of the scale, therefore, most of the attenuation of gamma rays or x-rays, takes place in the iron, and only a negligible fraction in the scale. This...
متن کاملFlux calculation in LSNAA using an 241Am–Be source
The CITATION code based on neutron diffusion theory is used for flux calculation inside voluminous sample in prompt gamma activation analysis with an isotopic neutron source (241Am–Be). The code used the specific parameters related to energy spectrum source, irradiation system materials (shielding, reflector, etc.), geometry and elemental composition of the sample. The flux distribution (therma...
متن کاملstudy of neutron yield for the 241am9be source
beryllium chemical combination has a considerable effect on the design and fabrication of the241am9be neutron source. in this investigation the beryllium combinations were studied as a generator ofneutrons with various mass percentage, and the neutron yields were also calculated using the results of thealice and srim codes calculations per unit incident charge. the neutron yields of beryllium ...
متن کاملAn Optimum Landmine Detection System Using Polyethylene Moderator and 241Am-Be as a Neutron Source
In this paper an optimized moderating structure using an 241Am-Be neutron source for detecting landmines (using the PGNAA method) has been investigated by experiment. The experimental set up composed of a Pb cylindrical shell enclosing the neutron source, embedded in a fixed size High-density polyethylene (HDPe) cylinder with the variable thickness of the upper and lower moderator. The optimizi...
متن کاملOptimization of 241Am-Be emission direction in neutron porosity tools for improving the precision in determining the porosity in calcite formation
Investigation of Hydrocarbon reservoir is important, so it is essential to predict and explore them precisely. One of the methods is well logging, which can transfer the probe or tool in the well to measure one or more characteristics. Nuclear well logging includes radioisotope source and at least one detector. In this work, emission direction of neutrons from the 241Am-Be neutron source toward...
