Influence of Spray Volume on Spray Deposition and Coverage within Nursery Trees
Information on better utilizing airblast sprayers to achieve high pesticide spray application efficiency in nursery tree production is needed. Foliar spray deposition and coverage at different heights inside crabapple tree canopies were investigated for a conventional airblast sprayer operating at four different application rates ranging from 230 to 900 L/ha [24 to 94 gallons per acre (GPA)]. D...

but also improves the uniformity of the spray pattern. Turbulence chamber nozzles are available in a turbo flood tip and now in the turbo flat-fan design. The turbo flatfan design shows great improvements in pattern uniformity when compared to the extended range flat-fan and other drift reduction flat-fan designs. In addition, the turbo flat-fan has significantly reduced the percentage of drift...
متن کاملImage analysis of water sensitive paper as a tool for the evaluation of spray distribution of orchard sprayers
Several tests were performed on commercially used orchard sprayers with different types of air discharge systems (conventional, cross flow, directional spouts). The measurements were conducted in a hangar on an apple orchard planted in containers. Pure tab water and water with minerals (Mg, Mn, Zn) were sprayed. Water sensitive paper and blotting paper were put in and around the trees to evalua...
متن کاملEffect of Blade Design Parameters on Air Flow through an Axial Fan
The objective of this paper is the numerical study of the flow through an axial fan and examining the effects of blade design parameters on the performance of the fan. The axial fan is extensively used for cooling of the electronic devices and servers. Simulation of the three-dimensional incompressible turbulent flow was conducted by numerical solution of the (RANS) equations for a model. The S...
متن کاملImproving Growth and Performance of Young Almond Trees in Nursery by Optimizing Mineral Nutrition
Short growing season restricts production of standard-sized fruit trees in nurseries at cold regions. Enhancing plant growth by optimizing program of mineral nutrition may solve the problem. This study evaluated efficiency of fertilizers [urea, sulfur coated urea (SCU), or foliar applications of a NPK compound fertilizer] for optimizing the growth of seedling rootstocks and grafted young almond...
