Temperature corrections are necessary to account for the varying mass of air in the cavity volume of a vented ionization chamber. The temporal response resulting from temperature changes in a cylindrical and/or Farmer-type ionization chamber, which is the standard dosimeter, has been thoroughly discussed by some researchers. The purpose of this study was to characterise and analyse the dependence of the cavity air temperature of the parallel-plate-type ionization chamber on changes in the ambient temperature. Ionization chambers NACP-02 (IBA Dosimetry, GmbH) and Advanced Markus TN34045 (PTW, Freiburg) were modelled using thermal analysis software to present the temperature equilibrium time and the entire ionization chamber temperature distribution. The temporal response of each ionization chamber was measured for comparing the calculation results of the thermal analysis. The ionization chamber cavities of NACP-02 and TN34045 reached complete equilibrium in 670 and 750 s, respectively. Heat transfer occurred faster at the centre of the front wall of TN34045 than at the outside of the centre except for the edges. Further, the non-uniformity of temperature in the cavity was in the range of 24.2-24.8°C for NACP-02 and 23.7-24.4°C for TN34045 at 200 s after the ionization chamber was installed in the water phantom. The previous proposal to wait for about 15 mins after submerging the chamber in a water phantom before the measurement is demonstrated to be appropriate for parallel-plate-type ionization chambers.
