Micro and macro spray characterisation based on high speed camera techniques

AgrosupBAPGEAPSI; Micro and macro spray characterisation based on high speed camera techniques Presenting Author David Nuyttens - ILVO, Technology and Food Science Unit, Belgium Description Macro (spray angle, liquid sheet length, spray distribution) and micro spray characteristics (droplet size and velocity) influence the efficiency of the spray application. Consequently, more information on these spray characteristics can lead to a more efficient pesticide usage. This study focuses on measuring spray droplet characteristics using a high speed imaging technique developed by Vulgarakis et al. (2015, Trans ASABE, 58: 27-37). In the first part, the macro spray characteristics from different t…
