Response of phase Doppler anemometer systems to nonspherical droplets.
TL;DR: The response of standard and planar PDA systems is examined experimentally in more detail by passing nonspherical droplets of known shape through the measurement volume, and the effectiveness of nonsphericity detection schemes can be evaluated.
