A new method of resistance measurement was developed to measure thickness of the film. When the resistance probe on the tip of micrometer touches the surface and bottom of the film, two corresponding sudden reductions of resistance occurs, and the difference of two graduations on the micrometer displays the thickness of the film. The film thickness of eleven angles was measured in five kinds of water flows and results varies from 0.8933mm to 1.7233 mm. Mean thickness and mean heat transfer coefficient of the film out of the tube was calculated.展开更多

The thermoplastic percentage depth dose (PDD), equivalent thickness of water for the masks and surface doses were determined. The surface dose factors due to the thermoplastic mask was found to be 1.7949, 1.9456, 2.0563, 2.1967, 2.3827, 2.5459 and 2.6565 for field sizes of 5 × 5, 8 × 8, 10 × 10, 12 × 12, 15 × 15, 18 × 18 and 20 × 20 cm<sup>2</sup> respectively which shifted the percentage depth dose curve to lower values. The physical thermoplastic thickness was measured to be between 2.30 and 1.80 mm, and the equivalent thicknesses of water, d<sub>e</sub>, were determined to be between 1.2 and 1.00 mm. This meant that, as the mask thickness decreased, its water equivalent thickness also decreased. The presence of the mask material increased the skin dose to a factor of 1%. The thermoplastic mask factor was also found to be 0.99.展开更多
