Analysis of Chemical Lasers. Volume 3: One-Dimensional Laser and Mixing Program Guide

Abstract : The One-Dimensional Laser and Mixing Program (ODLAMP) is described for analyzing multi-species lasing in a chemically reacting one-dimensional stream with mass addition. Mass is assumed to be injected (at a predescribed rate) from each of two separate streams, into a primary lasing stream. Lasing due to P-transitions (i.e., transitions proceeding from (v+l,J-l) to (v,J)) is treated. Both the analysis and computer programs are presented, including an input guide, sample calculation and flow chart.
