Abstract

An analysis method of components and isotopic compositions of low pressure gases from nuclear fuel rod using quadrupole mass spectrometer was studied. The calibration curves of each gas in pure and mixtures of He, $N_2$, $O_2$, Ar, Kr and Xe were obtained as a function of pressure and concentration, respectively. Effect of molecular leak, located between sample chamber and analyser chamber, on the sensitivites was also studied. The results suggested that samples could be analysed accurately at the same analytical condition as that of synthetic gas mixture. The difference of sensitivities among isotopes of Kr and Xe was not observed in the range of measured pressure.
