Hydrogen Fluoride Laser Technology Study (CCN)

This report presents an in-depth discussion of performance and diagnostic testing of the TRW versions of all-chemical, combustion driven hydrogen-fluorine lasers. Emphasis is placed on engineering principles of combustor/injector operation and design; performance testing; spectroscopic measurements and infrared mapping of excited and ground-state molecular concentrations in the laser cavity flow field; and fluid mechanical observations of the flow field. The exceptionally high quality of the data has permitted several distinct and significant conclusions concerning the nature of the flow field and has indicated the direction for future chemical laser research. A sufficiently in-depth discussion is presented which may serve as a point of departure for future chemical laser technology efforts.

  • "In the course of performing the work discussed in this report, the basic feasibility of Rayleigh Scattering, Raman Scattering and Holographic Interferometry as HF/DF laser cavity diagnostic techniques was investigated. A new HF/DF chemical laser system designated CL III was designed, fabricated and underwent preliminary testing to evaluate reactant mixing of parallel, fully developed H2 and F supersonic flows in the lasing cavity and scaling to higher power while maintaining good potential for pressure recovery."@en
