Abstract

Using the most recent mechanisms and rate constants for the chemistry of the H2/F2/O2 molecular system, we have performed detailed modeling studies of the stability data of Levy and Copland and have shown that these data are explainable with reasonable accuracy. This same chemistry model has also been used to explain the variation in performance of a H2/F2 pulsed chemical laser with added O2. The results show that although there is some gain in laser performance by operating at low O2 concentrations, the inverse linear dependence on O2 concentration rules out any dramatic increase in performance.
