SPRINKLER SHROUD DEVICE
20220226852 · 2022-07-21 ·

A shroud for a sprinkler head having a series of removable tabs to allow for configuring a shield-to-shield water distribution from the sprinkler head. The shield has removeable tabs of which allow for water to be sprayed past the shield. The shroud is utilized to configure the distribution of water from a sprinkler head so as, for example, to limit water distribution on unintended or undesired areas. Embodiments of the shroud can be configured to attach by a clip to a sprinkler head, by engagement with a weight threadingly engaged with the sprinkler head, by friction engagement with the sprinkler head, or by alternate attachment. The shroud can be configured in different embodiments to attach to a specific sprinkler head in the industry or configured to attach to different varieties of sprinkler head.

CLOG RESISTANT IN-LINE VORTEX ELEMENT IRRIGATION EMITTER

A clog resistant in-line vortex emitter and drip irrigation assembly and method uses a double-sided circuit and a series of vortex chambers of optimized dimensions to create a pressure drop with large dimensions and good clog resistance. The vortex chamber 100 also allows for a lower exponent than traditional circuits. This gives a pressure regulating property to the no-moving-parts circuit. The vortex emitter allows for some pressure regulation without sacrificing recyclability or requiring moving parts. The vortex circuit of the present disclosure is optimized for an emitter efficiency Ef value wherein Ef=(k/Ackt)*Amin such that k is a unitless head loss coefficient, Ackt is the area of the circuit, and Amin is the minimum cross sectional area of the circuit. A higher k per a given area with larger dimensions allows for a smaller part with a lower chance of clogging.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMAL ALLOCATION OF AGRICULTURAL WATER BASED ON WATER CONSUMPTION CONTROL

A system and method for optimal allocation of agricultural water based on water consumption control are provided. The system includes a data management module, configured to store and manage data related to water allocation; a basic data statistics module, configured to take statistics on various stored data; an agricultural evapotranspiration (ET) calculation module, configured to calculate an agricultural ET based on the stored data and statistical data; and a water resource allocation module, configured to generate a corresponding water resource allocation scheme based on an agricultural ET of each water consumption unit and corresponding data. Surface water and groundwater are jointly allocated to reduce groundwater exploitation, increase groundwater recharge, reduce invalid water loss and consumption in a carrying and allocation process, and improve an output benefit of agricultural water supply. This provides technical support for realization of agricultural target ETs in different hydrologic years and sustainable utilization of water resources.
