Abstract: | Time-resolved force sensing and intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD) imaging techniques were applied to the study of the
effects of laser energy density on impulse coupling coefficient of laser ablation of water for propulsion. A Transversely
Excited at Atmospheric pressure (TEA) CO2 laser operated at 10.6 μm, 30 J pulse energy was used to ablate water contained in a quadrate quartz container. Net imparted
impulse and coupling coefficients were derived from the force sensor data and relevant results were presented for various
laser energy densities. ICCD imaging was used in conjunction with the dynamic force techniques to examine the dependencies
on laser energy density. Results showed that the impulse coupling coefficient could reach a maximum value when laser energy
density was about 105 J/m2, and it would increase before laser energy got to this point and would decrease after this point, and ICCD imaging supplied
important phenomenon to explain this variation, which were water ablation before laser energy density got to 105 J/m2 and laser-induced air-breakdown with water as an induction when laser energy density was higher than 105 J/m2. |
