AN EXAMPLE OF THE APPLICATION OF THE CUEX METHODOLOGY— THE CALCULATED EXPOSURE RESULTING FROM ROUTINE STACK RELEASES FROM THE HADDAM NECK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT

摘要

The CUEX (Cumulative Exposure Index) relates the concentrations of various nuclides in the environment to assigned annual dose limits. A computer code has been written to calculate this index for stack releases of radioactivity. This report is written to illustrate how the code in its present form can be applied to a particular reactor. The data used here are from the Haddam Neck (Connecticut Yankee) Nuclear Power Plant, a relatively large plant that has been in operation for 6 years.
