Title
Evaluation of droplets size distribution and velocity pattern using Computational Fluid Dynamics modelling.
Abstract
•We highlighted the significance of the horizontal distance from the nozzle on the vertical distribution of spray and droplet sizes.•The significance of horizontal distance from the nozzle on distribution of droplet velocity.•Low liquid flow rate had finer droplet size spectrum compared to high liquid flow rate.•The motion of the sprayer affects the spatial distribution of the droplets.
