چکیده

Leclerc, M.Y., Thurtell, G.W. and Gillespie, T.J., 1985. Laboratory simulation of evaporation of water droplets on artificial soybean leaves. Agric. For. Meteorol., 36: 105-111. The evaporation from water droplets on artificial soybean leaves was modelled using an energy balance. Observations showed that while droplets were hemispherical initially, they then flattened keeping the base area virtually constant. These observations led to modelling the process as evaporation from a vertical right-circular cylinder which gave excellent agreement with indoor data.

Evaporation Time and Spread Area of Adjuvant-amended Droplets on Waxy and Hairy Leaves

Understanding the evaporation of pesticide droplets and wetting of leaf surfaces can increase foliar application efficiency and reduce pesticide use. Evaporation time and wetted area of single pesticide droplets on hairy and waxy geranium leaf surfaces were measured under the controlled conditions for five droplet sizes and three relative humidity levels. Stereoscopic sequential images of the d...

An Investigation of Applicability of Transporting Water Mist for Cooling Turbine Vanes

This paper presents a numerical study to investigate the feasibility of transporting mist through the internal cooling channel in high-pressure turbine vanes for film cooling over the vane's surface. The idea of using mist film cooling to enhance conventional air cooling has been proven to be a feasible technique in the laboratory conditions and by computational simulations. However, there is a...

Volume nucleation rates for homogeneous freezing in supercooled water microdroplets: results from a combined experimental and modelling approach

Temperature-dependent volume nucleation rate coefficients for supercooled water droplets, JV (T ), are derived from infrared extinction measurements in a cryogenic laminar aerosol flow tube using a microphysical model. The model inverts water and ice aerosol size distributions retrieved from experimental extinction spectra by considering the evolution of a measured initial droplet distribution ...

Daily Pan Evaporation Estimation Using Artificial Neural Network-based Models

Accurate estimation of evaporation is important for design, planning and operation of water systems. In arid zones where water resources are scarce, the estimation of this loss becomes more interesting in the planning and management of irrigation practices. This paper investigates the ability of artificial neural networks (ANNs) technique to improve the accuracy of daily evaporation estimation....
