Mathematical Method for Droplet Size Distribution of Agricultural Nozzles

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...

The measurement of droplet size distribution of water-oil emulsion through NMR method

The effects of water/oil volume ratio, type and concentration of demulsifier, water salinity and mixing speed on the average water droplets size in water-oil emulsion are evaluated at different times through NMR measurements.The type and concentration of demulsifier have the greatest effects on the average droplet size with 38% and 31.5%, respectively. The water/oil volume ratio, water salinity...

Numerical simulation of monodisperse droplet generation in nozzles

In this contribution further development of our in-house FEM based parallel 3D simulation tool FeatFlow will be presented. In particular, we give an insight into the recent developments of the Level Set based multiphase module, which has been extended with high order (Q2) discretization to increase the robustness and accuracy of the arising prediction tool for the simulation of monodisperse dro...
