ADRC is a geometrical alpha radiation code designed to calculate doses from radionuclide-containing solids exposed by surrounding media. The current version is only applicable to UO2 in water (radiolysis rates are also calculated in the results). More radionuclide containing materials and surrounding media options coming soon.

**Note: All previous versions before v2 have an outdated script and any results used from simulations should be updated, reasons for this are explained in the technical release notes**

UPDATE: This project has been migrated and developed to a cloud-based web application (http://rad-dose.herokuapp.com/)

Features

  • Available in Windows (Mac and GNU/linux operating systems not currently available for the new update)
  • Alpha dose rates and distributions from UO2 surfaces
  • Planar, Crack and Spherical geometry options available
  • Fuel inventory radionuclide options or custom energy values availble
  • Can handle up to 100 isotopes or custom energy inputs per calculation
  • Radiolysis rates included in calculation
