In order to fully utilise nucleonic measurement principles and
their applications, it is important to have an understanding of the
underlying physics. "Radioisotope Gauges for Industrial Process
Measurements" combines theoretical background with practical
experience in order to present an accessible overview of the use of
radioisotopes in industry. This unique book explains the modes of
operation of installed gauges and presents nucleonic methods
relevant to measurement problems. The first part of the book deals
with radiation sources, the interaction of radiation with matter
and radiation detectors. The second part explains the different
measurement principles used for industrial gauges and the last part
of the book covers industrial applications. This book also:
Features a concise introduction to atomic and nuclear physics.
Presents a range of nucleonic measurement methods and highlights
their application to a variety of problems. Contains an overview of
electronics, measurement accuracy, safety and standards. Considers
processes and demands, design strategies and practical realisation
of measurement systems. Provides many practical engineering
examples.
Offering a comprehensive coverage of engineering applications,
this book is an essential tool for electrical, electronic and
instrument engineers in the oil and chemicals processing sectors.
It is also a valuable reference to graduate students and physicists
involved in nuclear radiation measurement, medical applications,
radiochemical research, environmental monitoring and chemical
engineering.
