Abstract

The efficiency expected from any pesticide depends largely on the type of plant protection machine used in spraying and the operating parameters of the selected machine. Today, sprayers with different spraying wing width are widely used in field spraying. Especially with field sprayers with large working widths, it is difficult to work at high spraying speeds due to the wing width and wing weight. In this study, wingless field sprayer effectiveness was evaluated. Occasionally for spraying instead of sprayers with standard type field spraying booms, the field sprayers with commercial name Electropar, which are operated with high pressure and with oscillating nozzles are used. Since the sprayer has no wings, it can spray at high tractor speeds. optimum working width of this sprayer, pestisit distribution uniformity on a horizontal surface, etc. Its parameters are unknown. In this study, the optimum working width provided by the sprayer at different operating pressures and nozzle oscillation rates, and volumetric fluid distribution throughout the working width and optimum working parameters were determined. The three different working pressures (1, 2 and 3 MPa) and the transverse volumetric fluid distribution of the three jet nozzle units moving in opposite directions relative to each other on a horizontal ground at two oscillations (44 and 60 rpm) were determined by a portable patternator. Operation of the high-pressure cone jet nozzle unit at 1 MPa pressure and 60 rpm oscillating speeds provided a more uniform transverse distribution than other operating parameters. The increase in operating pressure caused an increase in the volume of fluid accumulated in the patternator's grooves at the same working height and sampling distance. The optimum working width, depending on the operating conditions specified by the boomless sprayer, varied between 11.20 and 12.80 m depending on the spray unit oscillating speed and spray pressure.

Abstract

Herhangi bir tarım ilacından beklenen etkinlik, büyük oranda pülverizasyonda kullanılan bitki koruma makinası çeşidine ve seçilen makinanın işletme parametrelerine bağlı olarak değişmektedir. Günümüzde tarla ilaçlamalarında yaygın olarak farklı ilaçlama kanat genişliğine sahip tarla pülverizatörleri kullanılmaktadır. Özellikle büyük iş genişliği olan geniş ve ağır kanatlara sahip tarla pülverizatörleri ile yüksek ilaçlama hızlarında çalışmak zorlaşmaktadır. Bu çalışmada kanatsız tarla pülverizatörü etkinliği değerlendirilmiştir. Zaman zaman pülverizasyon için standart tip tarla pülverizatörleri yerine, yüksek basınçlı ve salınımlı memelerle çalışan Elektropar ticari adlı tarla pülverizatörleri kullanılır. Kanadı olmadığı için yüksek traktör hızlarında püskürtme yapabilir. Bu pülverizatörün optimum çalışma genişliği, yatay bir yüzeyde yaptığı pestisit dağılımının homojenliği, vb. parametreleri bilinmemektedir. Bu çalışmada, farklı çalışma basınçlarında ve salınım hızlarında pülverizatörün sağladığı optimum çalışma genişliği ve çalışma genişliği boyunca hacimsel sıvı dağılımı ve optimum çalışma parametreleri belirlenmiştir. Yatay bir zeminde birbirine göre zıt yönlerde hareket eden üç jet meme ünitesinin iki salınımlı (44 ve 60 rpm) üç farklı çalışma basıncı (1, 2 ve 3 MPa) ve enine hacimsel sıvı dağılımı taşınabilir bir paternatör tarafından belirlenmiştir. Yüksek basınçlı konik jet meme ünitesinin 1 MPa basınçta ve 60 rpm salınım hızında çalışması, diğer çalışma parametrelerine göre daha düzgün bir enine dağılım sağlamıştır. Çalışma basıncındaki artış, aynı çalışma yüksekliği ve örnekleme mesafesinde paternatörün oluklarında sıvı birikimi hacminde artışa neden olmuştur. Kolsuz pülverizatör tarafından belirlenen çalışma koşullarına bağlı olarak optimum çalışma genişliği, püskürtme ünitesinin salınım hızı ve püskürtme basıncına bağlı olarak 11.20 ile 12.80 m arasında değişmiştir.
