Abstract
Two approximate calculation models for a cosmic radiation shielding in satellite are compared with detailed 3-dimensional calculation results. One is a sectoring method and the other is a chord-length distribution method. Shielding caltulation is performed for KITSAT-1 under the assumed environment at SAA (South Atlantic Anomaly) location with AP-8 radiation spectrum model. When both approximate models are applied, calculation error is expected compared with 3-D detailed geometry calculation because of straight knock-on assumption neglecting the deflection of incident proton. However, both approximate models showed good agreements with 3-dimensional detailed Monte Carlo calculation in two dose detector locations.
