Liquid-cooled Ti:Sapphire thin disk amplifiers for high average power 100-TW systems
2017
In this work, numerical heat transfer simulations of direct water-cooled gain modules for thin disk (TD) Ti:Sapphire (Ti:Sa) power amplifiers are presented. By using the TD technique in combination with the extraction during pumping (EDP) method 100-TW class amplifiers operating around 300 W average power could be reached in the future. Single and double-sided cooling arrangements were investigated for several coolant flow velocities. Simulations which upscale the gain module for multiple kilowatts of average power were also performed for large aperture Ti:Sa disks and for multiple disks with several coolant channels.
