In the printed contribution some basic modeling equations for the droplet behavior have not been given correctly. The authors apologize for this error. The computational model used to derive the results discussed in the paper is based on a thermal and a kinetic model for single droplet behavior in flight. The corrections are as follows.
Page 1638: Equation (4) was used to calculate the Nusselt number for the droplet heat transfer behavior, which is based on the Ranz-Marshall-Correlation:

Page 1638: Based on a force balance of gravity and drag force, the single droplet movement is described by

where v is the droplet velocity, cD is the drag coefficient and ρ and ρg are the droplet and the gas density, respectively.
