RELAÇÃO VAZÃO x PRESSÃO EM MICROASPERSORES DAN 2001 SOB CONDIÇÃO ADVERSA DE OPERAÇÃO  Marco Antônio Fonseca ConceiçãoEmbrapa Uva e Vinho, Estação Experimental de Jales, Jales, SP. CP 241.

Operadores de irrigação no campo, muitas vezes com baixo nível de instrução e sem orientação profissional qualificada, visando reduzir problemas de entupimento ou para diminuir o tempo de irrigação, costumam retirar as membranas autocompensantes para aumentar a vazão do emissores, o que pode comprometer o desempenho hidráulico do sistema. Para avaliar o efeito da retirada da membrana  sobre as vazões dos microaspersores, no presente trabalho determinou-se as relações entre pressão e vazão para sete bocais do microaspersor DAN 2001, operando na ausência da membrana autocompensante. As curvas pressão-vazão sem as membranas autocompensantes apresentaram comportamento potencial com expoentes variando entre 0,58 e 0,64. As vazões dos microaspersores sem as membranas aumentaram de forma inversamente proporcional aos diâmetros dos emissores, quando comparadas às vazões nominais com as membranas.  UNITERMOS: Hidráulica, irrigação, microaspersão.  CONCEIÇÃO, M.A.F.; COELHO, R.D. FLOW X PRESSURE RELATIONSHIP FOR DAN 2001 MICROSPRINKLERS UNDER ADVERSE CONDITION  2 ABSTRACT  Many types of microsprinklers have a self-compensating membrane to regulate their pressure, keeping a stable flow. Many producers usually take the membranes off to reduce clogging problems  or irrigation time. This procedure could endanger the system hydraulic performance. To evaluate the effect of taking off the self-compensating membrane from microsprinklers it was determined, in the present work, the pressure-flow relationship for seven Dan 2001 microsprinkler nozzles operating without the membrane. The pressure-flow curves presented a potential behavior with the exponents varying from 0.58 to 0.64. Microsprinkler flows without the membranes increased inversely proportional to the emitter diameters, comparing to the nominal flows using the membranes.  KEYWORDS: Hydraulic, irrigation, microsprinkler.

While there are a wide range of design recommendations for using rock vanes and bendway weirs as streambank protection measures, no comprehensive, standard approach is currently available for design engineers to evaluate their hydraulic performance before construction. This study investigates using 2D numerical modeling as an option for predicting the hydraulic performance of rock vane and bendway weir structure designs for streambank protection. We used the Sedimentation and River Hydraulics (SRH)-2D depth-averaged numerical model to simulate flows around rock vane and bendway weir installations that were previously examined as part of a physical model study and that had water surface elevation and velocity observations. Overall, SRH-2D predicted the same general flow patterns as the physical model, but over- and underpredicted the flow velocity in some areas. These over- and underpredictions could be primarily attributed to the assumption of negligible vertical velocities. Nonetheless, the point differences between the predicted and observed velocities generally ranged from 15 to 25%, with some exceptions. The results showed that 2D numerical models could provide adequate insight into the hydraulic performance of rock vanes and bendway weirs. Accordingly, design guidance and implications of the study results are presented for design engineers.
