UxC Fuel Quantity & Cost Calculator
Enter the known quantity into the appropriate box below. Then press the
Calculate
button to display the equivalent volumes in the various units. Clicking in any other box will cause all boxes to clear. Pressing the
Reset
button will set all values back to the defaults. To calculate Component Volumes, type a value into one of the
Componet Volumes
boxes and press
Calculate
. The calculation will be based on the first non-empty box.
Enrichment Equations
Feed to Product
= (Xp - Xt) / (Xf - Xt)
V(x)
= ((2 * x) - 100) * Ln(x / (100 - x))
SWU to Product
= (V(p) - V(t)) - FtoP * (V(f) - V(t)))
