37Ar detection efficiency for large volume gas proportional counter by using the spectrum analysis method was studied. The paper focused on factors affecting mostly efficiency of the counter
i.e. threshold correction
end-effect and wall-effect. The results show that the threshold correction coefficient is relative to method of peak calculation for 37Ar and wall-effect coefficient is less than 1% and can be ignored when counter’s pressure is larger than 200kPa. At last the formula of efficiency for counter is given.
