Analytic model of heat deposition in spallation neutron target

Description

A simple analytic model for estimating deposition of heat in a spallation neutron target is presented—a model that can readily be realised in an unambitious spreadsheet. The model is based on simple representations of the principal underlying physical processes, and is intended largely as a 'sanity check' on results from Monte Carlo codes such as FLUKA or MCNPX.
