INTRODUCTION The main method of providing high-energy bremsstrahlung (HEB) (or X-ray) sources of high inten- sity (>1kW/cm2) for photonuclear technologies lies in the generation and conversion of an accelerated electron beam having an energy ≥ 40 MeV and an energy flux density ≥ 10 kW/cm2. Taking into account a high level of absorbed radiation power in the converter, it is vital to keep an adequate heat resistance of the latter. This can be provided by creating an efficient cooling scheme. Besides, the converter gets activated under the action of a mixed γ,n-radiation generated in it. Therefore, in de- ciding on a particular material of the converter one must also take into account the activation reactions (prefera- bly with production of radionuclides that have the min- imum half-life period). A water-cooled tantalum plate converter is one of the traditional devices for providing powerful HEB sources (e.g., see [1]). Its major drawback is the produc- tion of Ta-182 isotope with the half-life period T1/2=115 days in the radiative capture reaction 181Ta(n,γ)182Ta. In view of the mentioned things, we propose a radi- cally new type of the converter in the form of a metallic shot, which is cooled with pressurized water (referred to as a distributed converter) [2]. As an example, the paper presents a detailed study on a variant of a lead shot- based converter. 2. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE DISTRIBUTED Pb CONVERTER AND THE Ta PLATE CONVERTER Simulation of bremsstrahlung sources that use con- verters in the form of a set of tantalum plates and also as leaden shot was carried out for the electron linac KUT- 30 conditions [3]. The simulation was performed with the program system PENELOPE/2006 as the basis [4]. 2.1. SIMULATION CONDITIONS In simulation, the energy spectrum of accelerated electrons and their density distribution in the transverse plane were most closely approximated to those meas- ured in experiments. The computations were made for the electron energy at the maximum of the spectrum E0=40 MeV. The geometry of output devices for repro- duction of the simulated HEB source also corresponded to real conditions of the KUT-30 accelerator (Fig.1). The exit window of the accelerator consists of the input 1 and output 2 titanium foils, 50 μm in thickness. The 4 mm spacing between the foils is filled with cool- ing water. e- 1 2 3 4567 8 9 Fig.1. Configuration of accelerator KUT-30 output de- vices under conditions of HEB radiation The converter unit includes the input foil 3, four plates 4, 5, 6, 7 and the output foil 8. The spacings be- tween the foils and plates are filled with water. The tantalum-based converter consists of four plates, each being 1 mm thick. The plates are separated by wa- ter-filled spacings, 1.75, 1.5, 1.5, 2.75 mm in width (in the direction from the input foil to the output foil). So, the distance between the foils is 13 mm. The lead-based converter consists of four plates, each being 1.82 mm thick. The water spacings in this case measure to be 1.363, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.363, respec- tively. The total thickness of the plate assembly makes 8.26 g/cm2. This corresponds to the use of the leaden shot with a bulk density of 6.88 g/cm3 at a shot layer thickness of 1.2 cm. The test target unit presents a water-cooled cylinder 9, 2 cm in diameter and in height. In the computations, natural zinc was considered as a target material for pro- duction of 67Cu isotope by the reaction 68Zn(γ,n)67Cu. The target is separated from the converter by foil 8. The distance from the cylinder to the output foil of the con- verter is 2 mm. ____________________________________________________________ PROBLEMS OF ATOMIC SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. 2010. № 3.

DESCRIPTION OF e,X-RADIATION As the initially “pure” electron beam of energy E0 goes deep into the converter, it gets transformed into a flux of mixed e,X-radiation. The composition of the flux along the path of radiation formation depends on the E0 value, the braking medium and the detection plane posi- tion. The e,X-radiation state can be described by the characteristics such as the conversion ratio (Ega/Ebeam) and the secondary emission factor (Ega/Eel), where Ebeam is the total energy of accelerated electrons; Eel, Ega are, respectively, the integrated energies of electrons and photons that cross the detection plane on the radiation axis. In this case, it is advisable to measure the distance from the onset of beam slowing down to the plane of detection in the so-called stopping thickness units. Simi- larly to the well-known mass thickness unit, which is determined as a product of the layer thickness by the layer material density, stopping thickness unit (stu) of any material layer is determined as a ratio of layer thickness to the average total range r0 of the electron of specified energy in the given material in the continuous slowing-down approximation. In stu terms, the behavior of radiation characteristics for substances in a wide atomic number and energy E0 range becomes substan- tially unified [5]. 2.3. SIMULATION RESULTS The computational results for the performance of the radiation field generated in the converter of each type are presented in Figs.2 to 5.

THERMOPHYSICAL ANALYSIS OF THE DISTRIBUTED CONVERTER The optimization in the geometry of the braking me- dium of the converter has been aimed at improving the efficiency of its cooling by increasing the heat exchange surface. Generally speaking, the converter in the form of a set of plates can also be related to the category of dis- tributed ones. However, in this case, the heat exchange surface can be increased only in two coordinates. The advantage of a three-dimensional uniform distribution of spherical pellets consists not only in an additional surface extend, but also in a substantial enhancement of heat transfer rate. This effect occurs in the fillings and in porous media owing to cooling flow turbulization [6]. 3.1. HEAT EVOLUTION AND BOUNDARY CONDITIONS The coordinate system used in the solution of the heat problem is shown in Fig.6. w at er beam Fig.6. Heat model of the leaden converter. 1 – peak density of the electron beam; 2 – effective radius of heating 136 The thermal power density is satisfactorily approxi- mated by the relationship 2.4 20.0034( , ) 1 exp 0.009 0.0044 R Zf R Z a ⎡ −⎛ ⎞ ⎛ ⎞= ⋅ − −⎢ ⎜ ⎟ ⎜ ⎟ ⎝ ⎠ ⎝ ⎠⎢⎣ ⎤ ⎥ ⎥⎦ , (1) where R2=X2 + Y2 is measured in m. At an average cur- rent of 220 μA the parameter a1 makes 2.5·109 W/m3. Taking into account a high thermal conductivity of filling materials, the thermal conductivity of water can be neglected, considering that the heat exchange be- tween the shots occurs only due to heat transfer of water downstream. As it follows from (1), f(R,Z) has its maximum at Z=0.0034 m shown by a dashed line in Fig.6. Neglect- ing the heat transfer by liquid along the Z-axis, it can be considered that the maximum temperature distribution also occurs in this plane. The heat transfer coefficient on the surface of each pellet is derived from α=Nu·k/de, where k is the water thermal conductivity, de is the hydraulic pore diameter. At the shot diameter d we have П Пdde − ⋅⋅= 13 2 , (2) where Π is the coefficient of porosity. A close packing of pellets with Π = 0.26 was assumed to be most probable. For the Nusselt number Nu, we have used the expression, which is little dependent on the pellet shape [7] Nu = 4 + K⋅(A1⋅Ree 2 + A2⋅Ree 3)1/4⋅Pr1/3, (3) where K = 0.17, Pr is the Prandtl number, Ree is the Reynolds number, Ree=Vede/v, v being the kinematic viscosity of water, A1 =133, A2 = 2.33. The water flow velocity in pores Ve is calculated from the filtration rate Vf as Ve = Vf/Π, Vf = N/s, where N is volumetric water discharge, s is the cross section of the filling. Using the thermophysical parameters of water at a temperature of 40°C we find α= 8.63·104 W/(m2·K) at N = 10 l/min. To attain these heat transfer coefficient values in narrow straight channels, the water flow rate should be ap- proximately 6 times greater (see ref. [1]). The water temperature in the filling necessary for determining the boundary conditions on the pellet sur- face was found from the expression ( )( )1/ 22 2 0 0.026 1( , , ) , Y w f w w t X Y Z t f X Y Z dy V Cρ − = + +∫ , (4) where ρw and Cw are, respectively, the density and heat capacity of water; t0=30°C is the converter inlet tempera- ture of water. The water heating by radiation was ne- glected. The temperature distribution (4) under KUT-30 beam parameters is represented by the lower curve in Fig.7. 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 -0.015 -0.01 -0.005 0 0.005 0.01 0.015 0.02 Y, m t,o C shot water Fig.7. Temperature distribution in the converter It follows from expression (4) that the water tem- perature is dependent on Y. This fact as well as the vio- lation of axial symmetry of the f(R,Z) function for off- axis pellets calls for a three-dimensional code in solving the heat problem. If the water temperature and the power density are taken to be constant within the pellet volume and equal to their values at the pellet center, then it becomes possible to use two-dimensional pro- grams. The error made in this case can be estimated by making use of the linearity of the heat problem as well as the data of Fig.7 and expression (4). Thus, the error associated with neglecting the tem- perature gradient in water will be equal to the water temperature difference at the points corresponding to the center of the pellet and its surface, this being ±1.3ºC (see Fig.7). If the power density in the field of one pellet is assumed to be uniform, then the relative error in the temperature distribution would be ΔT/T<(f(Ys,Z) – f(Yc,Z))/f(Yc,Z), where Ys, Yc are the ordinates of the pellet surface and its center, respectively. Using relation (1) it can be demonstrated that ΔT/T < ± 3.6%. Taking into consideration the insignificance of the given errors for estimative calculations, the two-dimensional ap- proximation was used for solving the heat problem. 3.2. THE CONVERTER TEMPERATURE The time-averaged temperature of the pellet center, de- pending on their position on the Y-axis for Z=0.0034 m, is shown in Fig.7. The shift of the temperature peak away from the center of filling is the result of heat trans- fer by the water flow. The maximum temperature makes 65.09ºC. The spherical symmetry of the calculated tempera- ture distribution inside the pellet (Fig.8) is a conse- quence of two-dimensionality of the adopted model. The calculation was performed for the pellet located at the point Y = 0.004 m. In this case, the temperature of this pellet center is maximal in the filling (Fig.7). The pulsed temperature variation was determined by solving numerically the nonstationary heat problem for the electron beam with a pulse length of 3.5 μs and a pulse repetition rate of 150 Hz. The highest pulsed tem- perature of the center of the pellet and of its surface was 80.5ºC and 68.8ºC, respectively. Fig.8. Temperature distribution in the pellet Using the technique of ref. [7], it can be demon- strated that the calculated α value is in agreement with the value of water pressure in the converter inlet fitting P= 3.76·105 Pa. 137 The pellet surface temperature 68.8°C provides a sufficient reliability of thermal conditions with regard to boiling of water initiated by instabilities in the beam parameters and the water flow. Assuming a stable op- eration of both the accelerator and the cooling system, as well as a possible overvaluation of Nu from formula (3) by δ =25% [6], it appears possible to estimate a permissible increase in the power of the converted elec- tron beam. If relation (1) is written down as f(R,Z) = a1·φ(R,Z), and expression (4) is written as tw(R,Z)=a1·D(R,Z), then the maximum average thermal power density al(ts) that corresponds to the pellet sur- face temperature ts can be found from the expression 1 0 ( , ) ( , )1( ) ( ) . 6(1 ) e s s f w w dd R Z D R Za t t t kNu V C ϕλ δ ρ − ⎡ ⎤ = − +⎢ ⎥−⎢ ⎥⎣ ⎦ (5) Here the parameter λ=0.63 takes into account the rise in the surface temperature during the pulse and, as numerical calculations show, depends only slightly on the pellet diameter in the 0.8 mm ≤ d≤ 2 mm range. The relationship (5) obtained in the approximation of heat generation uniformity in the pellet volume is well confirmed by numerical calculations and shows that: 1. the rise in the pellet temperature up to water boiling ts=100°C permits a 1.6 times increase in the a1 value, i.e., bringing the average beam power up to 12 kW; 2. the reduction in the pellet diameter to d=0.82 mm at ts=100°C enables one to increase the beam power by a factor of 2.2; 3. a 1.6 times increase in the water flow rate at d = 2 mm and ts = 100°C permits a 2.4 times in- crease in the beam power and in the bremsstrahlung power respectively. Cases 2 and 3 call for an increase in the water pres- sure P up to 106 Pa. So, if this pressure value is pre- sumed attainable, then the average beam power 18.5 kW can be considered as the maximum power for that con- verter under the accelerator KUT-30 conditions. 4. EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE CONVERTER To perform experimental studies, a prototype dis- tributed-type converter was manufactured. It includes an aluminum casing with a rectangular cavity. The narrow side of the casing has a charge hole to bulk the shot. In its top and bottom parts there are cooling water inlet and outlet pipes. The cavity was filled with lead shots, 2 mm in diameter. The composition of the shot also included antimony and arsenic as attached foreign materials. The HEB source based on a new-type converter was investigated experimentally at the electron accelerator KUT-30. Directly behind the converter, there were ar- ranged Ni and Sn foils to determine the HEB flux pro- file by the photonuclear converter technique [8]. The electron energy was measured to be 32 MeV. First, the converter and the foils were activated for 2 hours at a beam current of 8.6 μA. Figure 9 shows the HEB flux profile reconstructed by scanning the surface activity of the Sn foil with a gamma-scanner. Then the accelerator was switched to the mode of operation with an average current of 260 μA, at which the converter was irradiated for 10 minutes. This time is sufficient for the shot to reach the heat equilibrium. Thirty minutes after the exposure the shot was extracted from the cas- ing, was examined externally and dosimeter measure- ments were made over the course of 66 hours. Fig.9. HEB flux density distribution For this time the contact dose rate decreased from 2 down to 0.4 mSv/h. The external appearance of the shot after irradiation remained practically the same. The undertaken gamma-spectrometry analysis of in- dividual pellets has revealed that their activity varies within three orders of magnitude depending on the pel- let location in relation to the beam. The main contribu- tion to the activity is given by the Pb-203 isotope, which is produced in the 204Pb(γ,n)203Pb reaction. This is also confirmed by the time of radiation “cooling” of the shot, which has appeared to be close to the half-life period of Pb-203 (51.8 h). The appearance of Sb and As isotopes in the spectrum is due to impurities. On the 9th day after the exposure, the spectrometer studies have shown that the peak heights of both lead and impurities became approximately the same. This encourages us to state that beginning with this period the shot activity level is determined by the impurities, which are absent in pure lead. CONCLUSIONS Numerical simulation has shown insignificant dif- ferences between the characteristics of photon beams produced with the use of a distributed lead shot-based converter and a traditional Ta-plate converter. At the same time, compared to the Ta plate-based converter, the distributed Pb shot-based converter calls for a mod- erate water discharge, has a low level of induced activ- ity and provides at least a 1.6 times increase in the bremsstrahlung intensity through increasing the permis- sible electron flux density.

Показана возможность существенного увеличения допустимой плотности пучка электронов, а также снижения наведенной активности и расхода охлаждающей воды по сравнению с пластинчатым конвертером из тантала.
Розроблено і досліджено принципово новий тип конвертера щільного пучка електронів у гальмівне випромінення. Для підвищення теплової стійкості конвертера шляхом збільшення ефективності теплообміну в області генерації випромінення гальмуюче середовище виконане у вигляді дробу, рівномірно розподіленого у воді, що охолоджує. Приведені результати комп'ютерного моделювання, теплофізичного аналізу і експериментальних досліджень варіанту конвертера на основі свинцевого дробу. Показана можливість істотного збільшення допустимої щільності пучка електронів, а також зниження наведеної активності і витрати води, що охолоджує, в порівнянні з пластинчастим конвертером з танталу.
