Assume there is an initial radiation level of 15 R/hr inside a facility. The walls of the facility are constructed with tungsten, having a 30% transmission factor, and fiberglass, with an 80% transmission factor. How much radiation reaches outside the facility?
We start with an initial radiation level inside the facility of 15 R/hr. The facility walls are made of tungsten with a 30% transmission factor and fiberglass with an 80% transmission factor.
The formula to calculate the radiation level outside the facility () is:
Substitute the values:
Therefore, 3.6 R/hr of radiation would reach outside the facility after passing through walls with tungsten (30% transmission) and fiberglass (80% transmission).
