Fractal analysis of agricultural nozzles spray

Measuring Spray Droplet Size from Agricultural Nozzles Using Laser Diffraction

When making an application of any crop protection material such as an herbicide or pesticide, the applicator uses a variety of skills and information to make an application so that the material reaches the target site (i.e., plant). Information critical in this process is the droplet size that a particular spray nozzle, spray pressure, and spray solution combination generates, as droplet size g...

performance of selected agricultural spray nozzles using particle image velocimetry

the aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of nozzle configurations on spray drift and explain the influences using several atomization characteristics (length of spray sheet, spray angle, velocity distribution of flow field, fluctuation of velocity, and droplet size). nozzles manufactured by one company (lechler gmbh, germany) were tested by spraying local tap water in a win...

Powder Stream Characteristics in Cold Spray Nozzles

The exponential increase of industrial demand in the past two decades has led scientists to the development of alternative technologies for the fast manufacturing of engineering components, aside from standard and time consuming techniques such as casting or forging. Cold Spray (CS) is a newly developed manufacturing technique, based upon the deposition of metal powder on a substrate due to hig...

Characterization of Cryogenic Spray Nozzles with Application to Skin Cooling

* Corresponding author: Beckman Laser Institute and Medical Clinic, University of California Irvine, Irvine, CA 92612. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Cryogenic sprays are used for cooling of human skin during laser treatments of hypervascular lesions, such as Port Wine Stain birthmarks. In this work, six straight-tube nozzles, including two commercial nozzles, are characterized by obtain...
