Résumé
The data set consists of experimental data from lab evaluation to characterize droplet-size distribution of new sprinkler and drift/transport mechanism in controlled (i.e. wind tunnel) conditions. This works aims at obtaining an optimal water distribution from a localized irrigation micro-sprinkler. Similar data have been collected on standard irrigation sprinklers, the objective of this MADFORWATER research is to control the droplet size spectrum to minimize drift (smaller droplets carried by the wind) and compaction (bigger droplets that impact on the soil and induce crusting) risks.
