I am planning to use a gamma ray densitometer to measure the local concentration of slurry flow in a pipe loop.
Since i am using an organic solvent(flammable) to make the slurry, i am worried that gamma ray passing through it will heat it up significantly and cause hazard. I would like to know the possible temperature rise in the solvent if the gamma ray passes through it for duration of 10 minutes.
(I am predicting a possible rise of 3-4 degree celsius due to gamma ray absorption and flow friction)
Thanks
