An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of pressure loss, combined spacing, and.coefficients of uniformity on the dynamic fluidic sprinkler. Spline interpolation was used to convert the radial water volume into grid-type data and various pressure conditions were used to simulate the three-dimensional water distribution under square and triangular combinations of sprinklers. For each of the combinations of the sprinklers, experiments were performed at operating pressures of 0.15, 0.2, 0.25, and 0.3 MPa, respectively. To find the optimum spatial distribution of sprinklers, three different sprinkler intervals, 1R, 1.2R, and 1.4R, were performed for the square and triangular combinations. The droplet size distributions were also measured along a radial transect from the sprinkler for each operational pressure using the Thies Clima Laser Precipitation Monitor. The results demonstrated that the average values of the inclination angles of the water droplet trajectory curves were 60.78° and 68.85° as the pressure rose from 0.15 MPa to 0.3 MPa. When the pressure exceeds 0.2 MPa, the square combination's distribution uniformity coefficients of 25% low and high values were higher than those of the triangle combination. Triangular combination coefficients of uniformity (CU) values initially decreased and then increased as sprinkler spacing increased, with the CU value under 1.4R spacing reaching 73.85%. At a 1.2R interval, the CU value of a triangular combination was 8.49% lower than that of a square combination, which is a significant difference. Peak irrigation values for the square combination, when the pressure was changed from 0.1 to 0.3 MPa, were 29.97, 22.9, 19.8, 19.91, and 19.21 mm h−1, respectively. The CU values at 0.2, 0.25, and 0.3 MPa decreased at rates of 0.07%, 1.36%, and 0.8%, respectively, when the pressure was reduced by 10%. |
