ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method of calibrating a fuel nozzle patternation system. The method includes testing a master nozzle having desired spray characteristics in the system to determine a virtual origin of the system and then using the virtual origin to replace a fixed spatial origin of the system for testing other nozzles of the same nozzle family.
