same sub-models as employed in water spray are applied here, see Subsection 2.4.<br />
In Fig. 4.46, computed and experimental profiles of Sauter mean diameter (left) and<br />
mean droplet diameter (right) of PVP/water spray for a mass inflow rate of 112 kg/h<br />
at 0.12 m away from the nozzle exit are shown. Similar to the water spray, the spray<br />
distribution assumes a hollow-cone shape, and it is nicely predicted by DQMOM. In<br />
both the figures, a closer look reveals that across all the radial positions, the DQMOM<br />
