also move at a higher velocity as observed in the experiment and thus causing the<br />

velocity profile bimodal, which is predicted quite nicely by both models.<br />

A closer look reveals that the width of the jet is captured by the DQMOM, whereas<br />

the DDM predicts somewhat broa<strong>der</strong> profiles with a lower maximum value at the centerline.<br />

At the spray edge, a judgement of the numerical methods is difficult, since the<br />
