Research track spray chamber application parameters used for aerial application simulations of commercial insecticides.
| Application rate (L/ha) | Spray pressure (kPa) | Output per nozzle (L/min) | Application speed (Km/h) | Droplet size distribution (μm) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DV0.1 | DV0.5 | DV0.9 | ||||
| 10.89 | 110.32 | 0.38 ± 0.003 | 27.25 | 188 ± 0.249 | 348 ± 0.358 | 528 ± 1.843 |
| 16.50 | 131.00 | 0.41 ± 0.003 | 19.68 | 178 ± 0.391 | 333 ± 0.745 | 506 ± 1.163 |
Output per nozzle and droplet size distribution data are mean values ± SE obtained from combinations of TT110015 nozzle and spray pressures that best replicated the cornfield aerial application deposition on the Middle canopy of corn.
