We investigate the modal energy flow of the femtosecond-pulsed beam self-cleaning on LP11 mode with the influence of different factors such as the initial fraction of LP11 mode, initial peak power, distribution of high-order modes and the numerical aperture of the fiber. It is interesting that there is a critical value of the initial peak power, Pcr, which is the watershed, not only in the quantitatively dominant transverse mode converting from LP11 mode to LP01 mode, but also in the behavior of HOMs of the transition from Attractor to chaos. Our simulation results may provide a novel perspective to understanding the beam self-cleaning on LP11 mode.
