Abstract

The bubbled are generated in the superheated liquid neutron sensor when it exposed to the neutron dose. Acoustic signal is generated during the bubble formation. The acoustic signal is sensed by the piezo-electric transducer. The number of bubble can be correlated with incidence neutron dose. The paper presents a new bubble detection method for superheated liquid neutron sensor (SLNS) using low cost condenser microphone. The piezoelectric transducer used in earlier instrumentation for SLNS is replaced with low cost condenser microphone. The microphone has more sensitivity as compared with piezo-electric transducer for bubble detection. The paper also highlights the comparison of the response of the peizo-electric transducer with the condenser micro-phone and results are presented.
