In this paper, the photodarkening effect, as an additional loss factor in the high-power Fiber Laser s, was added in the rate equations, and the pump power variation relation was rewritten under the new conditions. By considering the complete form of the heat transfer function, including conductive and radiative heat transfer, the generated heat in the double clad Fiber Laser with the bidirectional pump scheme for different cavity geometry was determined. In this paper, the photodarkening loss is added to the rate equations as power decreasing factor, which is suggested as a stretched exponential function. The effects of core radius, the first clad size, input power, output reflectors coefficient, and laser cavity length in the heat generation were calculated. The contribution of each heat production factor including Quantum Defect, photodarkening, and propagation loss were also determined in heat generation. It was shown that the share of photodarkening heat caused from pump power and propagation loss affected from pump power in heat generation in the Double clad Fiber Laser is negligible. However, the photodarkening heat affected from signal power is the main factor in heat generation at the central points of Fiber Laser.
