Abstract
It is experimentally established that heating of the surface of water by continuous laser radiation at a 1.94-μm wavelength via optic fiber leads to the generation of two jets: a (i) submerged jet directed into the liquid and (ii) a counterjet directed upward into the atmosphere. The jets are generated upon coalescence of the gas cavity formed during the explosive boiling of water caused by the absorption of laser radiation immediately under the edge of the vertical optic fiber. Possible mechanisms of jet formation are discussed.
