초록

원자력시설로부터 삼중수소 사고 누출시 시설 주변 농작물의 삼중수소 오염 평가를 위한 동적격실모델 ECOREA-H3를 개발하였다. 모델의 격실은 크게 대기, 토양, 농작물로 구성되며 농작물은 엽채류 곡물류, 근군류의 3개 소그룹으로 분류하여 각각 독립적으로 모델링하였다. 벼에 대한 삼중수소 피폭실험 해석을 통해 모델의 예측 정확도가 조사되었다. 모델링 결과 추수시 벼이삭의 TFWT 농도는 입력데이터 중 공기의 절대습도, 뿌리흡수비 강우량에 OBT 농도는 공기의 절대습도, 이삭의 성장기간, 유기물의 수소함량의 영향을 상대적으로 크게 받는 것으로 나타났다. 벼이삭 OBT 농도에 대한 모델 계산과 실험 측정값은 잘 일치하였다.

A dynamic compartment model was developed to appraise the level of the contamination of agricultural plants by accidentally released tritium from nuclear facility. The model consists of a set of inter-connected compartments representing atmosphere, soil and plant. In the model three categories of plant are considered: leafy vegetables, grain plants and tuber plants, of which each is modeled separately to account for the different transport pathways of tritium. The predictive accuracy of the model was tested through the analysis of the tritium exposure experiments for rice-plants. The predicted TFWT(tissue free water tritium) concentration of the rice ear at harvest was greatly affected by the absolute humidity of air, the ratio of root uptake, and the rate of rainfall, while its OBT(organically bound tritium) concentration the stowing period of the ear, the absolute humidity of air and the content of hydrogen in the organic phase. There was a good agreement between the model prediction and the experimental results lot the OBT concentration of the ear.
