Modeling of liquid tin target deformation by laser pulse
Abstract:
The method of gradual simulation of liquid tin droplet deformation by laser pulse is considered. The first stage is laser impact on droplet. It was simulated using RALEF-2D code, based on radiative gas dynamic model. The next stage is free target evolution from a droplet to a disk. This part of simulation was carried out using OpenFOAM code where surface tension is taken into account. Good agreement with experimental results was obtained.
