Abstract

Abstract:

High-quality operation of plant protection UAV is the premise of precision operation in agricultural aviation, so it is particularly important to study the characteristics of spray system. In order to explore the factors that affect the spray quality, the comprehensive experimental platform of spray performance (developed by Jilin Agricultural Machinery Research Institute) was used to test the droplet deposition distribution and droplet diameter under different UAV rotor speed, spray height and centrifugal nozzle speed in this research, and regression analysis on the deposition characteristics and particle diameter data of 12 groups of tests was conducted. The results showed that the three repeated tests of the same set of parameters had good consistency. Droplets had obvious drift and the maximum effective deposition rate was 46.31% and minimum 31.74%, which shows that the effective deposition rate of droplets was lower than 50%. Compared with the regression analysis results of droplet diameters DV10, DV50 and DV90, the spray height P value is greater than 0.5, and the nozzle speed and rotor speed P value are less than 0.5. So it can be inferred that spray height had a very significant effect on deposition, no significant effect on droplet size. The nozzle speed and rotor speed had very significant effect on droplet size, no significant effect on deposition. The test results of this research can provide theoretical basis and data support for improving the operation quality and spraying efficiency of UAVs.

Key words: plant protection UAV, spray quality, experimental platform of droplet collection, laser particle size analyzer, centrifugal nozzle
