Sažetak
Disintegration, ventilation and deposition were considered as removal processes of the radon and its short-lived daughters in air and the respective concentration equations were applied. Calibration coefficient (KF) of the solid state nuclear track detector (SSNTD) LR-115 for radon and the equilibrium factor (F) were related to track densities of the bare detector (D) and the filtered one (Do). A useful relationship between KF, F and detector sensitivity coefficient (k) were derived. Using the calibrated value k=3.29x10^(-3) m, the exposed detectors gave the average values of the equilibrium factor, calibration coefficient and indoor radon concentration of a single house living room in Osijek 0.46, 142.3 m^(-1) and 37.8 Bq/m^3, respectively.
