The stability behavior with respect to internal modes is discussed for a class of tokamak equilibria with non-circular cross-sections and essentially flat current profiles. The stability analysis is done by computer both symbolically and numerically with the help of a normal mode code, which extremizes the Lagrangian of the system . It is found that the stability limit agrees well with that of the Mercier criterion. There are stable high-beta equilibria in this model.
