[Text] A purely experimental aenrch for the optimum opernCionnl condirions
of a GDL [gas dynamic laser] and the shape oF iCs nozzle is roo labor intensive,
and for this reason, numerical modeling of the phyeical proceases in high
power laser systems acquires considerable significance in Cheir deaign.
~ The solution of problems of the outflow of ttie relaxing mixture of gases from
a GDL nozzle is usually managed uaing one-dimeneional approximations [1J,
which most often are in qualitative agreement with experimental findinga..
The actual picture of the flow in a resonator cavity is characterized by the
presence of viscous trails and shock waves, which exert a conaiderable influ-
ence on the amplifying properties of the medium [2]. Under these conditiona,
the use af one-dimens'Lonal calculations yields a roo approxitnaCe picture of
the flow, since the parameters transverse to the flow can vary significantly.
Both experimenCs and calculations indicate this.
A two-dimensional calculation procedure was employed in [3] for the flow of
a relaxing mixture, which permits distinguishing the shock waves in Che nozzle.
For a correct comparison of this procedure with experimenCa, datu are needed
on the flow structure, since in nozzles with a point of inflection and large
initial aperture angles, which are usually employed in GDL's, the flow can be
far from one-dimensional and the appearance of shocks is possible. Such
information is usually lacking in papers dealing with the meaeurements of
ga:tr. We will also note that the divergence of the numerical results from
experimental ones can be due to the indeCerminancy in the constants for re-
laxation processes [4].
A comparison of two-dimensional cnlculations of the flow fields and the gains
in a constant cross-section channel adjacent to a nozzle is presented in this

A derniled descriprion of the setup and procedure for the measuremenCs were

the specific f.eatures of the given experiments, consisted in the fact ChaC
the beam of the sounding laser was collimated, and a diuphragm stop 1.5--2 mm
in diameter was placed ahead of the input window. Any poinC in the chaunel
could be probed. The trials were conducted aC a braking temperarure of To _

A special working section, consisring of a similar nozzle wirh a 110 mm long
channel was fabricated for the aerodynamic measurements (in cold air). The
widCh of the working section was 80 mm, and the side wal'!.s were made of opti-
cul glass. The visualization of the flow was realized using a direct shadow
method. During the measurement of the staric pressures, the glass in the
siue walls was replaced by drain inserts. There were also drain holes in the
shaped portion of the nozzle and in the center of the upper wall of the
channel.

passing Chrough a shock, the quantities k,

decreas
e in the gain is due to
the increzse in the static pressure and the
flow temperaCure, which lead to
an intensification of the relaxation processes,

the final analysis, Co a
n increase in the population of the lower lasing

the selecred crnes-secrion. Tr can be seen rhar with an increase in TO, the
influence oE shock waves increases, but it is insignificant (for the given
nozzle) up to To = 1,150� K. This is related ro the fucC that an increaseo
in the Forward temperature and 'r2 followinb a shock up to a value of x 300 K
does not lead Co a marked rise in the populaCion of the lower lasitrg 1eve1.

In this way, Che problem of determining the pressure gradient and the radia- '
Cion inCensity has been reduced to the solution of a system of lineat- alge- 4
braic equations (20) and (21), where the number of equations depends on the

AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE MIXING CONDITIONS IN A LAVAL

[Text] A large amounr of experimental research studying the influence of
gas dynamic mixing condit3ons 3n flows of working and auxiliary gases on the
inverCed population of the working gas molecules has been recently carried
out. This research has confirmed the theoretical conclusion of [1] that it
is possible to obtain greater inversion when admixing carbon dioxide into
the flow of the thermally excited auxiliary gas (nierogen) expanding in a
nozzle as compared to the expansion of a mixture prepared beforehand. In
fact, in papers [2, 3] when carbon diozide and helium were injected into
nitrogen heaCed up to a temperature of Tp Y 3,000� K, a small signal gain of
kv = 3 m-1 was achieved.
The higher efficiency in obtaining an inverted population when gas flows in
a supersonic nozzle with Che admixCure of a cold working gas Co Che auxiliary
gas is due Co Che fact that: a) the optimum value of the gain is obtained at
greaCer auxiliary gas temperatures (To = 2,000--4,000� K), i.e., with a
greater reserve of oscillatory energy in it; b) the energy expenditures for
preliminary heating of the C02 are reduced.
Maximally optimal from the viewpoinC of obtaining the max3.mum inver sion is
the injection o� the working gas inCo the supersonic flow of Che auxiliary
gas in a uniform manner over its cross-secCion. It is impossible to do Chis
in practice though, sirLca the arrangement oi a large number of fnjection
points into the supersonci flow leads to the appearance of shock waves, and
possibly, to blocking of the flow. Tt is not possible at the present time
to theoretically analyze the flow in a nozzle with the admixture of a cold
gas because of the great complexity of the system of gas dynamic equations,
which Cake into account turbulenC mixing and Che kinetics of oscillaCory
energy exchange, as well as because of the absence of rel3able data on the
turbulent mixing process under these conditions.

Because of thi.s, experimental studies have been made of the efficiency of
various configurations for the inserCion df the cold working gas in the flow
oC the auxil3ary gas in a superaonic nozzle: 'L) the mixing oE supersonic
flows of caxbon d3oxide and nitrogen traveling Cagether in A channel with a
constanC cross-section following the nozzle [4, 51; 2) the in3ection of
carbon diexide inCo Che formed supersonic flow of nitrogen perpettdiculAr to
the directinn of flow [6]; 3) the injecCion of carbon dioxide through s1nCs
in the wa11s of a f1.ar nozzle in its aubcrit:Lcal secCion wiCh subsequenC ex-
punsion of the flow [3, 71; 4) the injection of carbon dioxide in the vici-
niCy o� the cr3tical cross-secCion of the nozzle Chrough sloCs axranged in
the plane o� symmetr}r of the nozzle [2, 81,
Experiments in which the carbon dioxide wae introduced Chrough tubes w3.th r
holes, where the tubes were inserCed aC the cr3Cica1 cross-secCion of the
nozzle, were performed Co obCain uniform mixture of the working gas and the
aux3'1.iary gas aC the nozzle outler [9]. However, the question of the choice
oP the poinC of injection of the work3ng gas, and iCs nature to ebtain a
homogeneously intermixed flow at the ouCpuC from the nozzle, and the opimum
value of the gain, was nonetheless not sufficiently resolved in these ex-
perimenCs. The system of tubes, positioned in the critical cross-section of
the nozzle [9], apparently provides for rather good 3ntermixing of the gas
componenCs, but is diff 3cu1t Co realize in practice aC small values of the
height of h* of the criCical nozzle cross-section (h* u 0.5 mm) and for the
case of a large mass raCe of flow of the gas, when instead of one nozzle,
an entire assembly is used: an array of nozzles.
Moreuver, in all of the experimental works indicated here, nitrogen or air
was used as the auxiliary gas, which was heated by an electric arc or in a
shock wave, while the carbon dioxide gas was introduced in a mixture with
helium. Since the most accessible method of heating a large quaneity of
auxiliary gas is the combustion of some kind of fuel (for example, CO + H2,
kerosene, benzene) 3n air, then it is expedient to study the admixture of
the working gas (pure carbon dioxide) to the auxiliary gas, which is close
in terms of its composiCion to the combustion producCs of the fuel, i.e.,
which conrains a cerCain amount of carbon dioxide and water.
The purpose of the experiments set forth below is Co study the influence of
the locaCion and nature of the introduction of the carbon dioxide gas and the
composition of the auxiliary gas on the gain. The experiments were performed
using an array, consisting of 14 flat nozzlPS with h* = 1.2 mm and an overall
cross-sectional area of the gas flow at the output of 30 x 300 mm2. The
supersonic portion of the minimum length nozzles (with an inflection point)
was designed to obtain a Mach number of M= 4.5 at braking parameters of
p0 = 2. 106 Pa and TD = 1,400� K[10], Air served as the auxiliary gap,
in which water was added at a consider.able distance from the array, while
carbon dioxide was employed as the working gas.
The carbon dioxide was injected in only the subsonic portion of the nozzle.
It was assumed that the admixture of C02 in the supersonic section cannot

Figure 1. The configuration for the combined injecCion of C02
into the auxiliary gas f1ow.
In the general case, turbulent intermi.xing of the stream of the working gas
with the auxiliary gas is realized so that the interpenetration of the large
Curbulent moles occurs at the outset with their subsequent "breaking up"
into smaller ones. Since the transfer of the vibrational energy from Che
auxiliary gas to the working gas occtirs only during collisions at the molecu-
lar 1eve1, this transfer will bas3cally occur when there is Curbulent mixing
down to moles of a minimum size, which will already be intermixed by means of
molecular diffusion.
The least path length which the particles of the working gas will travel
from the po3nt of their injection before mixing at the level of minimum
sized moles can be roughly estimated from formula (1), if it is assumed Chat
h/2 = h, and breakaway zones are formed in the region of working gas intro-
duction, and then Z= h*, and (u'7)1/2 = u[11]. In Chis case~ Lmin = h*,
and then the greatest length will be on the order of I,m~ = 10 h*.
It follows from these qualitative considerations and rough estimates Chat if
the system for injecting the working gas is insCalled in the subsonic sec-
tion of Che nozzle at a distance of (0--10) h* from the critical cross-sec-
tion, upstream of it, then the mixirg from the minimum sized moles to the
molecular level with the transfer of vibrational energy from the auxiliary
gas to the molecules of the working gas will practically occur early in the
supersonic flow. This circumstance governed the selection of the system for

[TexC] The possibility of using molecular hydrogen in a C02 GDL [gas
dynamic laser] was danonstrated in [1, 2]. The results of ineasuring the
gain aC a wavelength of X = 10.6 um and the intensity of the spontaneous
IR rudiaeion in the 4.3 um band of the C02 molecule for the case of super-
sonic expansion of a mixture of C02 + N2 + HZ and at pp = 5--25 aCm and
PD = 800--3,000� K ahead of the nozzle are given in [3]. The vibrational
Cemperature of the Tg asymmetrical mode of carbon dioxide gas was determined
in [4] on the basis of ineasurements of the radiaCion inteneity in the 4.3Um
band wieh the assumpCion that the combined�C02 mode (symmetrical and deform-
ational modes) were in equilibrium with the progressive degrees of freedom
(T2 = T).
As was shown in [5], the simultaneous measurement of the spontaneous radi-
ation intensity of C02 in the 4.3 um band, I, and the gain in the radiation
of a probing C02 laser, Kp, allows for an experimeneal determination of the
population, and conaequently, the vibrational temperatures of both working
lasing transition levels (001-100) of the C02 molecule. Aeterminations of
the vibrational temperatures of the asymmetrical (T3) and combined (T2) modes ~
of carbon dioxide gas based on the vglues of the quantities Kp and T,
measured in [3] for the case of GDL's operating on a mixture of COZ + N2 + H20
are given in this paper.
The following reacCion occurs in the mixture of carbon dioxide with molecular
hydrogen aC high temperatures:

The CO molecules and especially the H20 molecules, formed in reaction (1)

Note: The percentage water vapor content in the studied mixtures was
deeermined for the case of t= 0.15--0.25 msec.
The ampli�icaCion and radiation characteristics of the mixtures studied in
[31 were measured in a time range of 0.15--0.25 msec following reflecCion
from the end face of the tube of the incident shock wave. For this reason,
the results of calculating the water vapor concentration are given in the
table for this period of time in the studied mixt+ures as a function of the
temperature and pressure in the volume ahead of the nozzle. The numeration
of the mixtures in the table corresponds to the deaignations of the experi-
mental curvea in Pigures 1-4 and in [3]. The results obtained for the
0.1 C02 + 0.4 N+ 0.5 He mixture (the quantity po corresponds to the ehock

adigbat wiCh nn initial value of the prssure df 0.2 atm) and for the 0.1
C02 + 0.9 N2 mi.xture (po d 6,0+ 1,5 atm) are designared in rigurea 1-4 and
i.n [3] wi.th the numbers 1 and 2 respeceively. According ro [7], the inf1u-
ence of the water molecules on the kinetics of the formaeion of invereed
popul~tiona in a C02 + N2 mixCure must conaidered when the H20 conCent in
the mixtiure exceeds 0.005. Tt can be aeen from the eable ar which values
of Tp the H20 content exceeds this value.
In accnrdance wirh the Cable dntia, a apecific composttion of the mixCure
aas employed in cglculaeing the vibrational tiemperatiures T3 and TZ from the
measuxed vgluea of Ko and T. The presence of carbon monoxide in the mix-
Cure, which is �ormed in react3on (1) when using a wideband dispersion fil-
Cer in the channel for recording the IR radiation, leade Co the necessity
of raking inro account the radiaCion of the CO moleculea in the 4.7 um
band [4).
The regulCs of ineaeuring the vibrational temperaCure of the asymmetrical
C02 mode as a funcCion of the Cemperature ahead of the nozzle for mixtures
1-5 and 8 are shown in Figure 1. Tg for the 0.1 C02 + 0.8 NZ + 0.1 H2
inixCUre is shown as a function of Cemperature in Figure 3 for various
pressures. The temperature in the criCical nozzle sect3on, T*, is shown
in Figures 1 and 2 wirh the dashed lines, and with the dashed and dotted
line for mixture 1.
A comparison of vibrational temperaCure values, obCained in this work,
with the values of T3 obrained for the same mixtures in [4], shows that
determining T3 using the approximaCe meChod of [4] leads to vnlues over-
stated by 40-120� K in a temperature range ahead of the nozzle of 800-
2,500� K. It was shown in [4] that because of the assumption of the thermal-
ization of the combined mode, the approximate method permits the obtaining
an upper estimate of T. It follows from a comparison of Figures 1 and 2
with the results of [4~ Chat the approximate method correctly reflects the
basic laws governing the change in T3 as a function of To, pp and the compo-
aieion of the mixtures. The following belong to Chese governing laws:
an increase in T3 and in the difference (T* - Tg) wiCh an increase in To,
a decrease in Tg with an increase in the initial hydrogen concentration
and an increase in the pressure from 5 to 25 atm. The greateaC values of
T3 are achieved with the expansion of the binary mixture 2(0.1 C02 + 0.9 N2);
the smallest values are obtained in mixture 1 *ith helium. It should be
noted that the value T* for mixCure 1 is substantially lower than the value
T* for mixCures 2-8.
The vibraCional temperature of the combined COZ mode as a function of the
Cemperature ahead of the nozzle for mixtures 1-5 and 8 at po = 6.0 + 1.5 atm
and for the mixture 0.1 C02 + 0.8 N2 + 0.1 H2 when the pressure varies from
5 to 25 atm are shown in Figures 3 and 4. The dashed lines in Figures 3
and 4 show the gas temperature in the working cross-secrion of the flow

dotted line is for mixCure 1. For al1
oE the mixtures studied under the con-
diCions of this work (Tp = 800--3,000� K,
PO 0 5--25 aCm), n rising curve far T2
as a function of To Is observed. We
wi1l note the high degrEe of nonequi-
librium of the combined C02 mode: the
vibraCionay. eemperature exceeda the gas
temperAture by 1.5-2.0 times. For mix-
tures 4, 5 and 8 wiCh an additional
hydrogen conCent of 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2
% = 6.0 + 1.5 atm), the values of
T2 throughouti the entire range of Tp a
= 800--2,500� K are in agreement with-
in the limitis of the meas8 rement pre-
cision. For m3xture 3Q H2 - 0.01),
elevated values of T2 are observed at
Tp ~>.1,600� K. In this same ranee of
temperatures of Tp, binary mixture 2
possesses the greatesC vibrational
temperature T2. The value of T2 for
mixture 1, which conCains helium, is
suDstantially lower than for mixtures
2-5, and 8 wiCh added amounts of hydro-
gen.
The influence of the pressure on the
vibraCional temperature of the combi-
nation C02 mode for a mixture with
~H2 = 0.1 is illustrated by curves
5-7 in Figure 4. The measured values
of T2 or pp = 7--25 atm practically
coincide (see Figure 4, 6, 7) through-
ouC the entire investigated range of
TQ = 800--3,000� K. When pp = 6.0 +
+ 1.5 atm (see Figure 4, 5), the mag-
nitude of T2 is 60--100� K higher Chan
for pressures of 7.5--25 atm.
Thus, the increase determined in [3] for
the gain and in the relative inverted
population of the C02 lasing levels
when molecular hydrogen is added to a
Dinar}r mixture of C02 + N2 in the amount
of 1--5% is due to the more significant
