Abstract

The subject of the present theoretical study is thermal and optical processes occurring in heating and explosion of water aerosol droplets by intense optical radiation propagating in the aerosol. A system of equations is formulated to describe the processes of radiation propagation in the aerosol and its interaction with individual droplets. The space-time distributions of parameters are obtained on the basis of a numerical solution of the formulated system of equations. The effect of the intensity and density of the 10.6 μm radiation energy, number of secondary droplets and vapour fraction formed after radiationinduced thermal explosion of droplets on the parameters of the process is considered. Comparison of some numerical results with experimental data is made.
