In this study, we have proposed an analytical method for calculating the specific heat capacity of uranium nitride nuclear material. The specific heat capacity results have obtained by the use of the Debye-Einstein approximation. The thermal conductivity of nuclear material has been obtained by using the experimental data of thermal diffusivity and the calculation results of specific heat capacity. This method shows that our results are satisfactory for the wide range temperature variations. The proposed approach can be easily applied to determine the thermodynamic properties of the other nuclear materials.
