MATHEMATICAL-MODELING OF RADIOLYSIS OF LIQUID WATER AT HIGH-TEMPERATURES

The results of a calculation experiment to define the parameters that determine the level of steady-state concentrations of hydrogen, oxygen , and hydrogen peroxide in gamma-radiolysis of water at 298-523 K in a closed system are reported. It was shown that the yields of primary p roducts of radiolysis of water as a function of the temperature have a weak effect on the steady-state concentration at high temperatures. T he activation energy of diffusion-controlled reactions as a function o f the temperature has a very pronounced effect.
