title: Refractive-index measurements for the correction of particle sizing methods.
abstract: For many optical methods in liquid particle sizing the refractive index of the liquid must be known. There is no problem if the data are available in the literature. If the liquid is unknown or if the refractive index changes because of a heating process or chemical reactions, the refractive index must be measured to achieve accurate sizing. A method is presented to determine the real part of the refractive index of droplets using the shift in the position of the first rainbow. Results from the application of this method to burning droplet streams are presented.
