Hello sir,
I am new to this forum i am looking for thermophysical properties of heavy water for my computer simulation. following properties i found in the wed. can anyone suggest me that these considered properties are correct
(ref temp 40 C and 6.549 kPa)
density = 1099.99 Kg/m3
specific heat at constant pressure = 153.36 KJ/Kg or 2230.8 Kj/kg (which one is correct)
dynamic viscosity = 7.848e4 Pa s
Thermal conductivity = 610.2e3 W/m K
Kinematic viscosity = 0.7135e6 m2/s
Pr = 5.443

Thank you
Sunil

Hello sir,
Thank you for your quick reply.
 
Hello, I am designing an X-ray irradiator with MCNP simulation. But I am still in confusion, whether my X-ray housing will be a box or a cylinder. If the box (macrobody identifier of MCNP) is required, I am trying to match the dimension as that of the cylinder, i,e, the height will be that of the cylinder height, and the other two dimensions will be that of the radius of the cylinder (surface 52 and 53). Can anybody please help me define the surfaces? Below is my attached text file. Forgot...
