Numerical simulation of the effects of sandy water on regulator labyrinth channel in micro-sprinkler systems [PDF]
Water Supply, 2021 Abstract The effects of sandy water on the W-shaped labyrinth channel of micro-sprinkler irrigation systems with large flowrate were investigated using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Using ANSYS FLUENT software and different inflow conditions (e.g., pressure, velocity, sediment concentration, and sand particle diameter), internal ...

IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF MICRO SPRINKLERS IRRIGATION BY REDUCING ITS RANDOM MOTION [PDF]
Misr Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2015 Limited fresh water resources become a serious issue worldwide particularly arid and semi-arid conditions. Therefore more efficient irrigation systems are fundamentally required to increase water productivity. Micro sprinklers are among these new systems to maximize irrigation efficiency. Random motion of micro sprinklers head reduces the uniformity of

Hydraulic performance of new and used self-compensating micro-sprinklers
Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2015 From the technical and economic perspectives, it is imperative that irrigation systems have extensive durability and high uniformity of application. The objective of this study was to compare the hydraulic performance of new and used (9 years of use with 4265 h of operation) self-compensating micro-sprinklers of the SuperNet LR model.
