Results are presented on two-dimensional numerical simulation of a decaying laser spark after the air breakdown. Radiation loss is modeled in a finite volume framework for a finite wavelength range of the emitted rays. The redistribution of assumed absorbed energy among different parts, namely the blast wave energy, the radiative heat energy and the left-over energy is quantified. About 5% of the...
