Short abstract: The effect of propeller wake, nozzle locations, and the number of propellers on agricultural spray droplet distribution was experimentally investigated through several methods. Standard agricultural nozzles were tested at varying transverse and downstream distances from a pair of APC 17x7 propellers at different RPMs.
