3. DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM OR FUNCTION

SADDE generates data files for the CCC-522/VARSKIN code from calculated beta-ray spectra, allowing users to more readily and accurately calculate beta skin dose.

[ top ]

4. METHOD OF SOLUTION

The first step in determining the scaled absorbed dose distributions for a given isotope is to calculate the emitted beta-ray spectra. This is accomplished in subroutine BETA of the SADDE program. The calculated spectrum is divided into 150 energy bins and is interpolated to 1500 values using a spline interpolation routine. These are stored in an array in subroutine COMP. The subroutine SADD then uses average energy and COMP to calculate the scaled absorbed dose function.

6. TYPICAL RUNNING TIME

SADDE is interactive. With a math coprocessor, each sample problem required about 2-3 minutes on an IBM PC/XT.

CCC-0517/01

The program has been tested on an IBM PC/AT compatible computer and executed interactively.
