| Description | Journal: Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics Acoustic waves in water may be produced by the absorption of infrared energy from a pulsed laser. The temperature distribution in water for a kilowatt pulse with a duration of the order of a millisecond can be described in terms of the beam parameters and the optical absorption coefficient of water. The expression for the temperature distribution has been solved numerically. The acoustic waves were studied by the use of hydrophones in an anechoic tank filled with tap water. Cylindrical waves with exponentially decreasing amplitudes with depth were produced by the absorption of laser radiation. The velocity of these waves was in close agreement with the velocity of acoustic waves in water. |
