Re: Germany renounces nuclear power - historic agreement

Jesus:

I do not know what ICRP Publication you may be bound to follow in your
country.  But in the United States under ICRP 26/30 methodology, the
breathing rate for Reference Man is generally used as stated in ICRP 23
(Reference Man).  The breathing rate typically used in internal dose
assessments is 20 liters/min (0.020 m^3/minute).  Such breathing
rates for Reference Woman and degree of activity (sleeping, "light
activity", "nonoccupational activity) may be found on page 346
or ICRP 23.  Best regards  David
