For the case of an isothermal free jet flow the velocity and the size of the drops were measured with a Phase‐Doppler‐Anemometer. The axial velocity decay downstream from the nozzle outlet and the radial drop velocity profile are reproducible within reasonable limits, if a so‐called homogeneous flow mixture density in the nozzle outlet is introduced. In case of low mass flow qualities an adjustment of the entrainment coefficient and a virtual jet origin as well as a reduced exponent for the Gaussian function type radial velocity profile is required.
