An intensity-validation scheme and corresponding probe volume correction factor have been developed that reject trajectory errors and account for the rejections in calculation of the probe cross-sectional area. The intensity-validation scheme also provides a tractable method of setting the photomultiplier tube gain and laser power. Volume flux measurements in dilute sprays have shown a significant improvement over those made by standard phase-Doppler interferometry techniques at small beam waist/droplet size ratios.Read More
