Indoor radon measurements in areas of northern Greece with relatively high indoor radon concentrations.
Indoor radon concentrations were measured in 77 schools of the prefecture of Xanthi in northern Greece. The arithmetic mean radon concentration is 231 Bq m(-3) with a range between 45 and 958 Bq m(-3). Thirty five schools have mean radon concentration above 200 Bq m(-3) and nine schools have mean radon concentration above 400 Bq m(-3). From continuous radon gas measurements in the school with a...
متن کاملThe role of natural ventilation on reducing indoor radon concentration
Due to the increasing of closed ventilation systems used in buildings, the risk of indoor radon is increased day by day. In this study, we selected two sample rooms to calculate the radon emission coefficient from different levels, radon concentration measured when the natural ventilation was completely closed and compared with the analytical results. The results clearly show the difference in ...
متن کاملIndoor radon entry: 30 years later
The paper discusses the results of 30 years of radon indoor entry research. While some progress has been made, many discrepancies between current theories and experimental data still remain. Misconceptions of radon transport mechanisms in homes are analyzed. The role of US Environmental Protection Agency in radon indoor entry research is examined and the agency's policies are criticize...
متن کاملRadon in Indoor Spaces
Results: Exposure to indoor radon and its decay products is a major contributor to the radiation exposure of the general population. In Germany, the mean radiation exposure due to radon in living rooms and bedrooms is about 49 Bq/m. It is well documented in the scientific liter ature that indoor radon significantly increases the risk of lung cancer, probably in a linear dose-response relationsh...
متن کاملAssessment of Temperature-driven Pressure Differences with Regard to Radon Entry and Indoor Radon Concentration
A heavily instrumented and unoccupied research house is used to continuously monitor the temperature in each room, the supply and return ducts, HVAC thermostat location, attic and outdoors. Simultaneous measurements of the differential pressures have been performed across the house walls, indoorfattic zones, the house slab and the indoor zones. Indoor radon concentrations and meteorological con...
