We simulate correlation measurements of entangled photons numerically. The model employed is strictly local. In our model correlations arise from a phase, connecting the electromagnetic fields of the two photons at their separate points of measurement. We sum up coincidences for each pair individually and model the operation of a polarizer beam splitter numerically. The results thus obtained differ substantially from the classical results. In addition, we analyze the effects of decoherence and non-ideal beam splitters. It is shown that under realistic experimental conditions the Bell inequalities are violated by more than 30 standard deviations.
