| Abstract/Contents: | "The distribution patterns of sprinklers are modified, under field conditions, by drift, evaporation and distortion, caused by wind and evaporative demand of the air. To evaluate experimentally spray loss (evaporation plus drift), collector evaporation must be suppressed or corrected for. Here an approximate correction, based on the measured evaporation from peripheral collectors, was applied to the data. It was further assumed that spray loss is distributed over the pattern in proportion to the local rate of water application. Based on experimental results, a set of wind distorted patterns for wind speeds of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 m/s was obtained. These can be used for simulation under conditions similar to those encountered during the experiment. The patterns can be interpolated for any desired wind-speed, rotated to the required direction and then corrected for the spray-loss appropriate to the environmental conditions." |
