Preliminary Report on Supersonic Jet Modeling
The report figures show the problem setup and radiation temperature (Tr) results for a simulation of a solid gold half-hohlraum irradiated with the 12 specified Omega laser beams using the incident pulse shape for shot 18080. The experimental package is not included in this modeling; the hohlraum has a solid gold wall at the experimental package position. Figure-1 shows the initial zoning and focusing of the two sets of laser beams. Figure 2 identifies the 4 regions over which we track the Tr as the simulation proceeds. Figures 3a-3d are plots of Tr in keV versus time in ns for the regions specified in Figure 2. Figure 4 is a plot of Tr in keV versus time in ns. This Tr is computed from the emitted radiation flux using the original size of the laser entrance hole.
