This paper extends the velocity dependent Krook (VDK) model, developed at NRL over the last 4 years, to two dimensions and presents a variety of calculations. One dimensional spherical calculations presented here investigate shock ignition. Comparing VDK calculations to a flux limit calculation shows that the laser profile has to be retuned and some gain is sacrificed due to preheat of the fuel. However, preheat is by no means a show stopper for laser fusion. The recent foil acceleration experiments at the University of Rochester Laboratory for Laser Energetics are modeled with two-dimensional simulations. The radial loss is very important to consider in modeling the foil acceleration. Once this is done, the VDK model gives the best agreement with the experiment.
