Abstract
Neutron doses often come dominant in mazes of electron accelerator facilities in which X-rays of energies more than 10 MV are produced. A simple analytical method to calculate neutron doses in such a facility is developed. In the calculation procedure, it is assumed that the irradiation room is spherical in shape and the maze is cylindrical. Multipile reflection of neutrons is also considered using the albedo concept in the calculation. The procedure allows to exist a hanging wall over the entrance of the irradiation room and also multiple legs in the maze. All the parameters used in the calculation are given definitely in the procedure, and any experiment is unnecessary to determine value of the parameters. Comparison of the calculated results with experimental ones will be described in the following report.
