The $\phi$ meson productions in $Au+Au$ and/or $Pb+Pb$ collisions at AGS, SPS, RHIC, and LHC energies have been studied systematically with a hadron and string cascade model LUCIAE. After considering the energy dependence of the model parameter $\alpha$ in string fragmentation function and adjusting it to the experimental data of charged multiplicity to a certain extent, the model predictions for $\phi$ meson yield, rapidity, and/or transverse mass distributions are compatible with the experimental data at AGS, SPS and RHIC energies. A calculation for $Pb+Pb$ collisions at LHC energy is given as well. The obtained fractional variable in string fragmentation function shows a saturation in energy dependence. It is discussed that the saturation of fractional variable in string fragmentation function might be a qualitative representation of the energy dependence of nuclear transparency.
