A Mathematical Model for Pressure Compensating Emitters

A Mathematical Model for Pressure Compensating Emitters

This paper presents a mathematical model investigating the physics behind pressure-compensating (PC) drip irrigation emitters. A network of PC emitters, commonly known as drip irrigation, is an efficient way to deliver water to crops while increasing yield. Irrigation can provide a means for farmer...
