Development of a graphite probe calorimeter for absolute clinical dosimetry: numerical design optimization, prototyping and experimental proof-of-concept
In this work, the feasibility of absolute dose to water measurements using a small scale graphite probe calorimeter (GPC) in a clinical environment is established. A numerical design optimization study was conducted by simulating the heat transfer in the GPC resulting from irradiation using a finite...
