DescriptionIn this PBL Challenge, you will be part of an engineering design team tasked with developing a burn-in test strategy for a high-power fiber laser.IPG PhotonicsPROBLEM STATEMENT SCRIPTDennis: Good morning. As you know, our new 2 kilowatt YLR-HP CW Ytterbium fiber laser is ready for production and we need to come up with a plan for burn-in testing. The laser beam will be delivered using our standard 100 um output fiber couplerScott: Since nobody will be supervising the test, we need to make sure that the laser beam is contained in a way that eliminates the risk of fire and will shut down the laser if a problem occursMike: We need to measure laser power and wavelength continuously over a 100-hour period. Burn-in testing is usually conducted over the weekend with little or no supervision so we need some sort of enclosure.Dennis: And remember, safety is our first concern but we also need to keep cost at a minimum.TASK:Fiber Laser Burn-in Testing –Students are tasked with developing a safe, reliable and cost-effective method for testing high powered fiber lasers. The laser must be run at full power for 100 hours unattended, while key performance parameters are measured.See discussions https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228348465_Problem-Based_Learning_in_Photonics_Technology_EducationI NEED THIS  IN 8HRS
