Fluid Dynamic Approaches for Prediction of Spray Drift from Ground Pesticide Applications: A Review
2021
Agronomy
Preserved Fulltext
Spray drifts have been studied by mathematical models and computer simulations as an essential complement to lab and field tests, among which are fluid dynamic approaches that help to understand the transport ...
From earlier fluid mechanical models to highly computational models, scientific advancement has led to a more realistic prediction of spray drift, but the current literature lacks reviews showing the trends ...
For most arable and vegetable crops, the air-jets tend to be located above the crop producing a downward flow, while an upward flow is applied to fruit and tree crops by locating the sprayer within the ...
