Abstract

Fukushima
Nükleer santral Kazasının Anadolu Yarımadası üzerindeki etkileri üç farklı
kaynak terim ile atmosferik dağılım modeli kullanılarak araştırılmıştır.. 131I parçacıklarının
haca konsantrasyon değerleri  0.1 mBqm-3 ile 0.5
mBqm-3,  137Cs değerleri 0.01 mBq m-3 ile 0.05 mBqm-3,  for 131I
gaz değerleri  1 mBqm-3 ile 10 mBqm-3arasındadır. Bulunan değerler ölçüm değerleriyle
kıyaslanmış ve bu değerler kullanılarak Anadolu Yarımadası için radyolojik doz
değerleri hesaplanmıştır. Bulunan efektif doz değerleri Fukushima Nükleer Güç
Santrali Kazasının etkilerinin Çernobil Nükleer Güç Santrali ile
kıyaslandığında oldukça sınırlı olduğunu göstermektedir.

ESTIMATION OF RADIOLOGICAL DOSES OVER TURKEY BY USING ATMOSPHERIC DISPERSION MODEL AFTER FUKUSHIMA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT ACCIDENT

Abstract

The
effects of Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant accident over Anatolian Peninsula were
investigated by using an atmospheric dispersion model with three different
source terms. Air concentration amounts for ¹³¹I particles over
Turkey were found between 0.1 mBqm^-3 and 0.5 mBqm^-3, for ¹³⁷Cs
between 0.01 mBq m^-3 and 0.05 mBqm^-3, and  for ¹³¹I gas between  1 mBqm^-3 and 10 mBqm^-3.
Results were compared with the measured values. The radiological doses were
calculated over Anatolian Peninsula by using air concentration values simulated
by atmospheric model. In addition the effective doses were found around nSv
which shows that Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant accident has limited effects
compared to Chernobyl Power Plant accident.
