Abstract

A theoretical model of multiple light scattering is developed which predicts the light energy distribution produced by dense particle fields. The predictions are compared with experimental results obtained using dense suspensions of glass beads and excellent agreement is obtained. The effect of multiple scattering is found to depend on the distribution parameters and a set of correction equations is derived for Rosin-Rammler and log-normal distributions. Thus drop size distributions based on Fraunhofer diffraction theory can be corrected to allow for multiple scattering.
