Theoretical analysis of HF chemical laser models are performed through chemical reaction kinetics, gain process and stimulated emission process. A chemical laser of F + H2 nonchain reaction is investigated through V-R transitions of excited HF for vibrational levels up to v = 3 and rate equations including nonchain pumping and deactivation. On this analysis, harmonic and anharmonic vibrational levels are considered separately and the results of the corresponding power calculations are showed very small difference between the two. Output powers are calculated with variation of temperature and initial concentrations of H2. A HF chemical laser of H2 + F2 chain reaction is also simulated with a premixed initial condition. Results of present model calculations are satisfactory through comparison with detailed calculations reported by others.
