Abstract
Radiation dose calculations and limit radiation dose calculations have been carried out by the code CAP88-PC around the Yatağan coal-fired power plant environment by using the result of previous studies about maximum measured gross alpha activity in the flying ash samples as radioactive sources.
A modified Gaussian plume equation is used to estimate the average dispersion of radionuclides released from up to six emitting sources. The sources may be either elevated stacks or uniform area sources. Assessments are done for a circular grid of distances and directions for a radius up to 80 kilometers, 16 wind sectors and 20 mesh distances around the facility in calculations.
The limit doses obtained from the calculations and their radiological effects have been interpreted. Finally the effects of various radionuclides have been carried out and their results have been compared with each other.
