Just another idea
I had to take Cheminstry twice because I sucked at it but as long as your not suffering from distrbution problems with the Meth, I would imagine the larger droplets would absorb more energy (heat) to break their bond and become a gas so it would lower AIT's better. Along the same lines as why liquid in your radiator cools better than steam. This also myay be totally wrong but I'm on a roll. :-)

Rick, I believe the science behind the smaller droplets has it's positives. Take a look at it like this, say with a 10# nozzle you have X droplets per second and their total combined surface area of there "sphere like shape" is Xsa. Then you go to two 5# nozzles and you get 2Y droplets per second and their total combined surface area is 2Ysa. I am pretty sure that up unto a point where the droplet size actually becomes TOO SMALL, you will see an increase in efficiency of evaporation rate. Basically 2Y droplets > X droplets, and 2Ysa > Xsa. There is more surface area available for the hot air charge to evaporate, thus bringing temps down more so than the larger droplets.
If I am wrong, please educate me.

That is absolutely correct, but you didn't factor time:
You are absolutely correct, because you did factor time. To simplify for those of us that aren't that new guy, crisp, you want droplets as large as they can be that will completely evaporate in the air before they hit some surface as a liquid. That way all of the heat of evaporation will come from the air, and not the engine parts.

Sweet. It's like our two little minds make one giant brain...
Alsways nice to learn something new. Thanks for clearing it up MikeGyver.

Check out Yellowbullet.com 's FI section. Some REAL turbo racers in there, lol. The guy I talked to a little says it cools at the source of the heat, where it does the most good and helps the turbo make a better seal for compressing the air making for a more efficient compressor.
