In South-Eastern Nigeria, during the dry season from November to April, vegetables are always in short supply and consequently expensive. Hence, there is a need to design, develop an affordable and simple bucket drip irrigation system that can be used to grow vegetables under limited water supply conditions. Using the estimated consumptive use of the proposed crop okra and the area occupied by the crop stands, the capacity of the bucket as a source of water was computed. The bucket filled with water was placed at a head of 1 m. The water was allowed to flow through emitters located at 30 cm intervals along the lateral lines laid at the land slope of 2%. Two lengths of PVC tubes 11 m long, 1 mm thick and internal diameters 16 mm, Micro-tubes 5 cm long and internal diameter 1.2 mm, were used. The discharge from each emitter was determined through volumetric measurements. The system was then evaluated using the Christiansen’s method and the Merriam and Keller’s method and assessed using ASAE standards 1996(a) and 1996(b) performance rating. 22 sampled emitters evaluated from the lateral line showed total energy drop of 2.5 x 10-5 m, flow variation (FV) of 8%, coefficient of variation (CV) of emitter discharge of 0.02, uniformity coefficient (UC) of 97% and emission uniformity (EU) of 73%. The results show that the system is efficient and can be used by farmers to meet the demands for vegetables in the dry season.

Background: Drip irrigation system is one of the best water application methods that have been used in the world among the other irrigation methods because of its upright and high uniformity and high-water use efficiency. Hydraulic performance evaluation is widely accepted for the evaluation of overall uniformity of a drip irrigation system. Methods: In an experimental study carried out at School of Engineering, RK University, Rajkot; hydraulic performance evaluation parameters viz., Pressure discharge relationship, Christiansen’s uniformity coefficient (CU), manufacturing coefficient of variation (CVm) and emission uniformity (EU) of non-pressure compensating emitters were calculated for 2 lph inline and 2 lph, 4 lph, 8 lph online emitter at various operating pressure of 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2 kg/cm2 as per American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASAE) standards. Result: The study concluded that rated discharge of the emitter can be obtained at the operating pressure of 1.0 kg/cm2. Pressure discharge relationship revealed that discharge of the emitter upsurges as pressure rises. CU and EU were more than 95% for all the cases and they were maximum at 1.0 kg/cm2. CVm was less than 0.0200 for all the cases and it was minimum at 1.0 kg/cm2. Study concludes that all the parameter viz., CU, EU and CVm were excellent and very good categories for all emitters as per American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASAE) standards.

Em campo, foram utilizadas 4 linhas laterais escolhidas ao acaso e com o auxílio de proveta e cronômetro, foram aferidos os volumes de água em 4 gotejadores de parede delgada, em três repetição em um tempo de 60 segundos, observando as 3 diferentes pressões de serviço (5,1; 10,2 e 15,3 mca). A média dos valores encontrados para o Coeficiente de Uniformidade de Christiansen (CUC), Coeficiente de Uniformidade de Distribuição (CUD) e o Coeficiente de Uniformidade Estatística (Us) são considerados pela literatura especializada como excelentes.  Todavia, na pressão de serviço de 5,1 mca, a uniformidade de distribuição de água tende a ser comprometida.

DOS SERVICE PRESSURES AND THEIR EFFECTS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF A DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM     2 ABSTRACT   The objective of this work was to analyze the distribution uniformity of a drip irrigation system located in field conditions under different service pressures, through the determination of the Coefficient of Uniformity of Christiansen (CUC), Coefficient of Distribution Uniformity (CUD) and Statistical Uniformity Coefficient (Us). In the field, 4 randomly selected lateral lines were used and with the aid of a beaker and stop watch, the water volumes were measured in 4 thin-walled drippers in three repetitions in a time of 60 seconds, observing the 3 different service pressures (5.1, 10.2 and 15.3 microns). The mean values found for the Christiansen Uniformity Coefficient (CUC), Uniform Distribution Coefficient (CUD) and the Statistical Uniformity Coefficient (Us) are considered by the specialized literature to be excellent. However, in the service pressure of 5.1 mca, the uniformity of water distribution tends to be compromised. It is inferred, therefore, that the irrigation system is well-sized working, thus avoiding financial damages, regardless of the pressures of services in which it is operating.   Keywords: uniformity, micro-irrigation, manometric heights.

No entanto, o efeito desses efluentes nos sistemas de irrigação ainda é pouco estudado. Assim, os objetivos desse trabalho foram caracterizar o efluente de laticínio tratado por processos biológicos, classifica-lo quanto ao potencial de entupimento de emissores e avaliar a uniformidade do sistema de irrigação por gotejamento por meio da determinação dos coeficientes de uniformidade de distribuição (CUD), de Christiansen (CUC) e estatístico (CUE). O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados, em esquema fatorial 3 x 3, com quatro repetições e avaliações dos coeficientes ao longo do tempo. Os tratamentos foram constituídos de três fontes de água: água de abastecimento (AB); efluente de laticínio tratado por sistema anaeróbio (EAN) e por sistema aeróbio (EA); e por três lâminas de irrigação, 50% (W1), 100% (W2) e 150% (W3) da evapotranspiração da cultura da beterraba. Após 40 horas de funcionamento, CUD, CUC e CUE foram classificados como “Excelente”, com valores superiores a 96%. As diferentes lâminas aplicadas não influenciaram nos coeficientes. Entretanto, ao longo do tempo, as três fontes de água utilizadas ocasionaram diminuição do CUD, CUC e CUE, sendo que a maior redução foi encontrada nas parcelas que utilizaram efluente anaeróbio. Palavras-chave: água residuária, reúso, coeficiente de uniformidade, gotejador, tratamento anaeróbio e aeróbio.  MACAN, N. P. F.; GOMES, T.

However, the effect of these effluents on the irrigation systems is still little studied. Thus, the goals of this work were to characterize the dairy effluent treated by biological processes, classify it for its potential to cause emitter clogging, and evaluate the drip irrigation system uniformity by determination of emission uniformity coefficient (EUC), Christiansen coefficient (CUC), and Statistical uniformity coefficient (SUC). The experimental design was performed in randomized blocks, with a 3 x 3 factorial design, four replications, and coefficients evaluation over the time.  The treatments consisted of three types of water: freshwater (AB), dairy effluent treated by anaerobic processes (EAN), and effluent treated by aerobic processes (EA) at three irrigation depths – 50% (W1), 100% (W2), and 150% (W3) – of the estimated table beet evapotranspiration. After 40 hours of irrigation, EUC, CUC e SUC were classified as excellent, with values greater than 96%. The different irrigation depths did not affect the uniformity coefficients. However, the use of the three water sources led to EUC, CUC and SUC reduction over time, and the largest reduction was found on plots that used anaerobic effluent. Keywords: agro-industry, uniformity coefficient, emitter, reuse, anaerobic and aerobic treatment.
