The measurements and monitoring of ²²²Rn/²²⁰Rn have been of emerging interest in occupational environments particularly in radium/thorium handling facilities and environments with monazite deposits for the inhalation dosimetry. The performance of a flow-through Lucas scintillation cell (LSC) for long run ²²⁰Rn measurements, depends upon the exact distribution pattern of ²²⁰Rn and its decay products in the LSC which can vary with the design of inlet path and flow rates. In this work, the CFD technique has been used to study the concentration profiles of ²²⁰Rn and its decay products in LSC for varying flow rates and inlet needle lengths. The variation of alpha production efficiency (η_α) is computed and analyzed for each case; aiming to select the best operating range of parameters for the optimum performance of LSC for ²²⁰Rn measurements. It is seen that LSC can be operated in the flow rate ranging from 0.6 to 1 lpm with inlet needle length varying from 22.5 to 45 mm for improved sensitivity.
