Description
Summary:The problem of reliable estimation of annual radon concentration in the new buildings by results of short-term measurements is still actual. The task is to determine the relevant real values of the coefficient of temporal variations of radon. To this end, analyzed two fundamentally different approach to research methodology and accounting regularities of variations of radon EEC in indoor buildings. Based on experimental data shows that in assessing the average radon EEC levels is the most effective and took into account the ratio of current and annual air temperature differences inside and outside the building. The proposed principle is recommended for use in the development of improved methods of radon control of buildings.
