  The potential of the Dense Plasma Focus (DPF) for industrial applications in
many fields is well recognized, although yet to be realized in practice.
Particularly attractive is the possibility of its use as inexpensive industrial
source of nuclear reactions for diverse high value applications such as fast
pulsed neutron radiography of hydrogenous materials, non-intrusive neutron
interrogation of concealed organic contraband and rapid production of short
lived radioisotopes for medical diagnostics and therapy. Recently, it has been
suggested that it may be possible to operate the DPF efficiently in a
High-Pressure-Optimized (HPO) mode. This paper explores the design parameter
space for such HPO-DPF based on the revised Resistive Gratton-Vargas (RGV)
model with a view to identify a practicable set of system parameters and their
scaling. The current waveform predicted by the revised RGV model for the chosen
set of parameters is fitted to the Lee model to estimate the likely neutron
yield.
