Method for calculating depth of sprayed water of translational sprinkler in different working conditions

Abstract

Disclosed is a method for calculating the depth of sprayed water of a translational sprinkler in different working conditions, involving placing rain barrels () in n rows in the movement direction of a translational sprinkler (), each row having m barrels, such that the spray radius of rain droplets can completely cover the rain barrels () while ensuring that the translational sprinkler () is spraying stably; calculating the average sprinkler strength of each rain barrel (); drawing a relationship curve of the sprinkler strength and the distance from the centre; setting the movement speed s of the translational sprinkler (); establishing a function relationship between a sprinkler strength d' and time t; calculating the time tneeded for the translational sprinkler () to completely pass one of the rain barrels (); and with the condition that the movement time is t, performing mathematical integration on the sprinkler strength function to obtain the sprinkled depth of water at a certain rain barrel (). The calculation method has a simple operation, is fast and can effectively save on costs, providing a basis for optimizing the movement speed of the translational sprinkler ().
