Dear Maxim,

In the expression 
Dv=3mu_4/2mu_3
mu is related to the crystal RADIUS distribution, but in
<L>v=3mu_4/4mu_3
mu is related to the crystal DIAMETER distribution

As for the instrumental and strain contributions, they may be correctly allowed 
for along with the size effect using the TCH pV function from which you may get 
estimations for VWDS and AWDS.
See, for instance, EXAMPLE3 in the DDM suite where the refinement of the Ceria 
sample from the Size-Strain Round Robin is presented.

Best regards,
Leonid
