The assessment of lining structure impact on radon behaviour inside selected underground workings under the cour d'honneur of Ksia(z) over dot castle

摘要

The results based on 2-year long measurements 01 Jan. 2016-2031 Dec. 2017 have been used for discussing the influence of tunnel lining on the size of(222)Rn activity concentration and the impact of the employed rock mass insulation on natural convective air exchange. In April, air movement started when the temperature was at least 7 degrees C lower than the mean inside. Between May and October, an increase to 9 degrees C above the underground temperature resulted in an increase of radon concentration. An unconstrained convection process did not start until November and it continued until the end of March. The reinforced concrete lining insulated the fractured and absorptive rock mass. The roof and the sidewall lining had little impact on air movement process.
