A two-dimensional video disdrometer ( 2DVD) was used to measure drop size,drop velocity
and drop angle from Nelson D3000 spray-plate sprinklers with a 4. 78 mm nozzle and operating pressure of
50,100,150,200 kPa. The relationship among drop sizes,drop velocity and drop angle were analyzed.
Results indicated that the relationship between drop diameter and distances along the sprinkler met
exponential function. The volumetric mean diameter increased with the distance along the sprinkler
increased,and at the same location from the sprinkler the average droplet diameter decreased with the
increase of working pressure. The relationship between drop velocity and drop diameter met logarithmic
function. Drop velocity increased with the drop diameter increased,and the effect of operating pressure
on the relationship between drop diameter and velocity was not obvious. Drop angle decreased with the
increase of drop diameter. When drop diameter was smaller than 1. 0mm and operating pressure was at
50,100,150,200 kPa,90. 46%,84. 46%,89. 91% and 89. 15% of the droplets descended
perpendicularly to the ground,respectively. The rest of the droplets descended to the ground with angle
between 30° ~ 89°. When drop diameter was between 1. 0 mm and 2. 25 mm,the drop angle decreased
rapidly with the drop diameter increased. And when drop diameter was greater than 2. 25 mm,the
decrease trend became slower. The relationship between drop angle and drop diameter met a good linear
function,and the effect of operating pressure on the relationship between drop angle and diameter was not
obvious.
