Abstract

최근 개인선량계로 사용이 증가하고 있는 수동형 선량계인 OSLD와 능동형 선량계인 EPD의 상대 반응도(relative response), 측정 불확도(uncertainty of measurement)를 계산하여 방향의존성(angular dependence)을 비교, 분석하였다. OSLD는 수평, 수직방향의 <TEX>$0^{\circ}{\sim}{\pm}90^{\circ}$</TEX> 범위에서 평균 상대 반응도는 0.97, 0.95의 작은 변화를 보였고 방향의존성에 대한 불확도는 0.65, 0.62로 전체 불확도에 미치는 영향은 미미한 것으로 판단되었다. EPD는 <TEX>$0^{\circ}{\sim}{\pm}60^{\circ}$</TEX> 범위에서 수평, 수직방향 평균 상대 반응도는 0.94, 0.97로 확인되어 IEC 61526 규정을 만족하였다. 방향의존성에 대한 불확도는 수평, 수직방향에서 0.44, 0.40로 전체 불확도에 미치는 영향은 미미하였다. 그러나 수평방향에서 <TEX>$+90^{\circ}$</TEX>, <TEX>$-90^{\circ}$</TEX> 방향의 상대 반응도는 0.60, 0.37이고 수직방향에서 <TEX>$+90^{\circ}$</TEX> 방향의 반응도는 0.06으로 반응도의 큰 변화를 관찰할 수 있었다. OSLD의 방향 의존성은 <TEX>$0^{\circ}{\sim}{\pm}90^{\circ}$</TEX> 범위까지 EPD에 비해 우수하였으며 EPD의 경우 구조적 특징으로 반응도가 급변하는 특정방향이 존재하였다. 따라서 수동형선량계와 보조선량계의 병행사용이 개인피폭선량측정의 정확도를 기할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. The angular dependence of active dosimeters, EPD, is analysed and compared with that of passive dosimeters, OSLD, after evaluating their relative response and uncertainty of measurement, where it is known that the personal use of them has been increased recently. There appeared a minor variation for average relative response of OSLD in the horizontal and vertical directions within the range <TEX>$0^{\circ}{\sim}{\pm}90^{\circ}$</TEX>, which are 0.97 and 0.95 respectively. The variations of angular dependence in the same situations with OSLD are 0.65 and 0.62, respectively, which also reveals a negligible effect on the overall uncertainty. EPDs within the interval <TEX>$0^{\circ}{\sim}{\pm}60^{\circ}$</TEX> for horizontal and vertical directions are 0.94 and 0.97, respectively. These satisfy the requirements of IEC 61526. Uncertainties about the dependence of direction from horizontal and vertical directions are 0.44, 0.40, respectively. The impact of these uncertainties on the overall uncertainty was negligible. However, we observed a significant change in reactivity: the relative reactivities for <TEX>$+90^{\circ}$</TEX> and <TEX>$-90^{\circ}$</TEX> from the horizontal direction are 0.60, 0.37, while that form vertical direction is 0.06. The direction dependence of OSLD was superior to EPD in the range of <TEX>$0^{\circ}{\sim}{\pm}90^{\circ}$</TEX>. There appeared a rapidly changing structural features in EPD response for a certain direction. Therefore, we conclude that concurrent use of passive dosimeters and auxiliary dosimeter provides accurate data for personal dose measurements.
