In this paper,a theoretical model to analyze the mode coupling induced by heat,when the fiber amplifier works at high power configuration,is proposed.The model mainly takes into consideration the mode field change due to the thermally induced refractive index change and the coupling between modes.A method to predict the largest average output power of fiber is also proposed according to the mode coupling theory.The largest average output power of a large pitch fiber with a core diameter of 190 μm and an available pulse energy of 100 mJ is predicted to be 540 W,which is the highest in large mode field fibers.
