Abstract

An algorithm is constructed for numerical solution of the problem of nonequilibrium supersonic expansion of hot viscous gas in short plane nozzles allowing for the excitation of the molecular electron levels. The suitability of chlorine as an active medium for gas-dynamic lasers in the visible and ultraviolet regions is demonstrated.
