AI Thread Summary
To calculate radiation doses from radioisotopes like I-131, Xe, Br, and Kr in mSv/h, it is essential to understand the radioactivity measured in Curie. The discussion emphasizes the need to consider both whole body and organ exposure when assessing gamma doses. Additionally, knowing the air volume is crucial for calculating radiation debit in air exposure. Accurate calculations require specific formulas that relate radioactivity levels to dose rates. Proper guidance on these calculations can help ensure safety and compliance with radiation exposure standards.

Hello all,

I must to calculate radiation debit gamma doses (mSv/h ) in concordance with some important radioisotopes
(i.e I-131, Xe, Br,Kr ) received at
Whole body
Some organs
Knowing radioisotopes radioactivity in Curie


Thank you for advices

I add new information about my problem:

i know air volume and and want to calculate radiation debit gamma doses in air exposure.

Thanks,
 
Hello everyone, I am currently working on a burnup calculation for a fuel assembly with repeated geometric structures using MCNP6. I have defined two materials (Material 1 and Material 2) which are actually the same material but located in different positions. However, after running the calculation with the BURN card, I am encountering an issue where all burnup information(power fraction(Initial input is 1,but output file is 0), burnup, mass, etc.) for Material 2 is zero, while Material 1...
