摘要
A study of spray losses from three low-pressure center-pivot sprinkler irrigation systems was carried out under field operating conditions. The evaporation losses during sprinkling were determined at three different spray-nozzle heights from ground surface. The average values were 15.63, 21.19 and 35.77% for heights of 1.25, 1.75 and 2.5 m, respectively. In addition, the three center-pivot systems were evaluated. The values for the distribution uniformity, the potential application efficiency, and the uniformity coefficient were calculated.
