This article summarizes additional experimental data collected regarding the evaporation rate of water droplets stacked on several threads, positioned downwind of one another, and strengthens previously published results regarding droplet evaporation rates inside a spray cloud. Here, the effect of evaporating water droplets upwind of other droplets is examined, along with changes in tunnel speed, temperature, and relative humidity on droplets positioned on single threads. These results further quantify the wet bulb temperature depression felt by droplets within a spray cloud, along with the effect of the Sherwood number, and are used to enhance the ability of AGDISP to make accurate model predictions for droplets released from spray nozzles.
