If the laser acts on the opaque material, the load must be applied to the surface in the case of 3-D formulation, and to the line - in 2-D formulation. Thus it is desirable to take into account the intensity distribution laser beam over cross section.
thanks for your answer,really i appreciate that and if you can answer me, i have another question, i took into account the intensity distribution over cross section but in order to get temperature distribution in material after laser ablation (plane 55), which laser parameter (energy,power,....) versus pulse duration that i must use
as 3D function, incorporated as a UDF (Ansys fluent). In ansys, you may use two method : in energy equation [W/m3] ILx abs (source of energy) or in boundary condition as IL. For example see equation 2.4 in
