Abstract: A measuring device for determining average mass flux, penetration rate, and droplet size both spatially and temporarily in a spray pattern from a spray nozzle. The measuring device includes a movable mounting arrangement that securely positions a spray nozzle such that it can emit a spray pattern along a generally vertical axis. A collection means consisting of a series of collection tubes is positioned below the mounting arrangement such that the collection tubes collect a portion of the spray pattern emitted from the spray nozzle. Each collection tube includes a gas relief opening such that the spray droplets can freely enter the collection tubes. A shutter mechanism is movably positioned between the spray nozzle and the collection means. The shutter mechanism is operated in a timed relation to the pulsing of the injector, such that the shutter mechanism selectively isolates a portion of the spray pattern and the only isolated portion of the spray pattern reaches the collection tubes.
