EAST托卡马克中子与伽马在线监测研究

On-line Monitoring of Neutron and Gamma in EAST Tokamak

  • 摘要: 为了实现对实验型先进全超导托卡马克(Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak, EAST)装置聚变产物中子与γ射线的有效监测,建立了一套核辐射在线监测系统。在装置大厅内外区域共布置13个监测点,根据装置大厅内外辐射强度的差异,分别采用探测范围广、时间响应快和探测灵敏度高、工作稳定性强相结合的BF3正比计数管和氩气电离室。脉冲信号经前置放大器、运算放大器、脉冲甄别与成形后送入单片机处理,通过双绞线与以太网的混合组网方式将数据传输到采集机,利用LabVIEW采集软件实现对中子与γ射线实时剂量率及累积剂量的采集与存储。监测数据表明,放电时大厅内中子和γ射线剂量率在短时间快速升高,且距离主机越近剂量率越大。而大厅外辐射剂量率始终处于极低水平,几乎不受脉冲放电的影响。该监测系统满足了EAST托卡马克装置辐射监测需求,确保了人员与周围环境辐射安全,保障了聚变装置安全有效运行。

     

    Abstract: In order to effectively monitor the neutron and γ-ray of the fusion product of the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak(EAST) device, an online monitoring system of nuclear radiation was established. A total of 13 monitoring points are arranged inside and outside the hall of the plant. According to the difference of radiation intensity inside and outside the hall of the plant, BF3 proportional counter tube and argon ionization chamber, which have the advantages of wide detection range, fast time response, high detection sensitivity and strong working stability, are respectively adopted. After the pulse is screened and shaped by preamplifier, operational amplifier and pulse, it is sent to the single chip microcomputer for processing. The data is transmitted to the acquisition machine through the mixed networking mode of twisted pair and Ethernet. The real-time dose rate and accumulated dose of neutron and gamma ray are collected and stored by LabVIEW acquisition software. The monitoring data show that the neutron and gamma-ray dose rate in the hall increases rapidly in a short time during discharge, and the dose rate increases with the distance from the host. However, the radiation dose rate outside the hall is always at a very low level, almost unaffected by pulse discharge. The monitoring system meets the radiation monitoring requirements of the EAST Tokamak, ensures the radiation safety of personnel and the surrounding environment, and ensures the safe and effective operation of the fusion device.
