Thanks Chris,
Sorry for delay, sifting thru 100+ emails on DIY-EFI forum, took a long time!! The answer came from yet another source, a Diesel Fuel Inj. Service place that revamps Inj. pumps.... spray is a small cone that hits the curved surface of the "pre-cup" that allows a swirling burning mixture to expand into the cylinder as the piston completes its power stroke. The injector "chirps" as usual, during the injection pulse... unknown drop size distribution although the "pop-off" pressure is usually set up from 1950psi to 2150 psi for finer atomization and easier starting, as well as lower emissions.
Thanks for your effort Moose.
