Abstract
Investigation of Water Distribution Characteristics for Large Cannon Irrigation Sprinkler under different Spacing and Layouts
Highlights
Sprinkler irrigation is being widely used due to the operational simplicity that it offers
The application rate was lower near the sprinkler, and the highest value occurred under the radius of throw from 4 to 6 m for each water distribution pattern
The flow rate of the large cannon sprinkler increased with operating pressure and nozzle diameter
Summary
Sprinkler irrigation is being widely used due to the operational simplicity that it offers. This method of irrigation provides a good water distribution uniformity, precise control of the depth of application, high water application, efficiency and potential use in different types of soil and topography conditions (Bernardo et al, 2006; Frizzone et al, 2011). In order to understand what to expect from any sprinkler that designer plan to use, some general characteristics need to be understood. These include sprinkler discharge, radius of throw, water distribution pattern and precipitation rate. There are three basic choices in sprinkler layout; triangular, rectangular and square layouts
