Temporal investigation of acoustic wave pressure spectrum of high repetition rate TEA-CO2 lasers by using a three-dimensional mathematical model

The production of acoustic wave is one of the most important factors on the action of High Repetition Rate TEA-CO₂ lasers. In this paper a three-dimensional mathematical modeling has been considered for investigation of temporal and spatial variations of acoustic waves in the laser cavity and its effect on the output of HRR lasers. By calculation of equations obtained from this model and plotting the pressure spectrum in different states, the effect of electrodes dimensions, cavity dimensions, gas flow velocity and repetition rate of laser in different times have been acquired. At last, optimum conditions for performance of laser action and having a good output have been arrived.
