Background High-power fiber lasers have become core devices in key fields such as industrial precision processing, advanced national defense equipment, frontier scientific research, and high-end medical equipment. However, the traditional R&D mode of high-power fiber lasers relies heavily on physical experiments, which are costly and time-consuming. Simulation technology, as an effective auxiliary tool, can significantly reduce experimental costs, shorten the development cycle, and accurately optimize key performance parameters, thus playing an irreplaceable role in promoting the practical application and technological innovation of high-power fiber lasers.Purpose This study aims to systematically sort out and summarize the research progress of typical high-power fiber laser simulation software, clarify the current research status of this field, and provide practical references for the R&D and application of related simulation software in the industry.Methods This paper focuses on investigating mainstream high-power fiber laser simulation software at home and abroad, conducts in-depth analysis and comparison of their core functional characteristics, technical advantages, and applicable scenarios, and combs the research ideas and technical routes of high-power fiber laser modeling and simulation.Results The study summarizes the main research features of high-power fiber laser modeling and simulation, discusses the key technical points in the effective verification and reliable application of simulation software, and clearly sorts out the latest research progress of typical simulation software.Conclusions This paper prospects the future development directions of high-power fiber laser simulation software, including the integration of multi-physics field simulation, high-precision model construction, artificial intelligence-enabled fiber laser design, as well as standardized interfaces and an open-source ecosystem. This study provides valuable theoretical and practical references for the R&D and upgrading of simulation software in related industries. -
