ABSTRACT
Wind tunnel measurements of drop size distributions from Micronair AU4000 and AU5000 rotary atomizers, operating with varying tank mix, flow rate, air speed, and blade angle conditions, generate a rotary atomizer database and recovery of a highly correlated multiple regression (average R2 = 0.995 and 0.988, respectively) that represents all collected data and forms the basis for a model library containing these distributions for forestry applications.
