COIL Operation with All-Gas Chemical Generation of Atomic Iodine
Abstract
This report results from a contract tasking Institute of Physics Academy of Science as follows: 1) Experimental investigation of kinetics of atomic iodine generation via F atoms based on the chemical reaction of F2 with NO, and a sequential reaction of F with HI performed on a small-scale device will provide detailed information about feasibility and efficiency of this method for a COIL. 2) Experimental investigations of the small signal gain distribution and laser generation on the supersonic COIL device modified for injections of gaseous reactants will provide detailed results on the most efficient and advantageous location of atomic iodine injection into the singlet oxygen flow in the laser. 3) More sophisticated computational CFD model of this reaction system will be developed to optimizing the mixing conditions and interpret experimental results.
