Abstract

The drop-size distribution in flat sprays produced by agricultural nozzles is discussed and an equation has been derived by dimensional analysis relating a mean drop diameter to operating conditions at the nozzle. The equation has been applied to experimental data for agricultural nozzles with satisfactory results. The development of the spray sheet with pressure increase is shown by high-speed photographs
