Design and validation of a 2D CFD model of the airflow produced by an airblast sprayer during pesticide treatments of citrus

During plant protection treatments using airblast sprayers, part of the chemical is lost in the atmosphere (spray drift), ground, surface water, etc., causing risks to the environment. Although there is a growing interest in quantifying these losses, field measurements are extraordinarily complex an...
