Table 1. Aerial ULV spray application parameters.
| Application Date | 29 October | 30 October |
|---|---|---|
| Nozzles | 2 booms, 12 SS8001 each boom oriented straight down |
2 booms, 4 SS8003 each boom oriented straight down |
| Application Rate | 0.84 fl oz/A (0.086 lb A.I./A) | 1.00 fl oz/A (0.100 lb A.I./A) |
| Spray System Flow Rate | 1.50 gal/min | 1.81 gal/min |
|
Acres treated (total volume naled applied) |
911 A (5.9 gal) | 890 A (7.0 gal) |
| Aircraft Speed | 230.2 mph (200 knots) | 230.2 mph (200 knots) |
| Swath Width | 500 ft | 500 ft |
| Offset of First Swath | 50 ft (MOUT South) | 175 ft (MOUT South) |
| 150 ft (Village) | 275 ft (Village) | |
| Release Height | 150 ft (AGL) | 150 ft (AGL) |
These parameters are from the 29–30 October 2013 experimental trials over the MOUT South, Village, and road transect sites, Camp Blanding, Florida. AGL = above ground level. Offset of First Swath indicates distance from the first upwind structure in each simulated populated area to the edge of the first of the six swaths applied to each target area.
