As a possible option, zinc bromide solution viewing window can be used in the mobile hot cell. In China, there are few successful cases for zinc bromide solution to be used as viewing window, and the shielding characteristic data is not available. MCNP, one of the shielding calculation methods, is applied to simulate the shielding against 1000Ci Co ray with different concentration of zinc bromide solution and zinc bromide solution of non-uniform concentration. It is shown that the dose rate is reduced to 45 S ·h by 1500 mm thickness of zinc bromide solution which concentration is 57.2% or above.
