Drip Irrigation

Drip Irrigation

Description:

This Drip Irrigation working model demonstrates an efficient and sustainable water delivery system where water is directly supplied to the roots of plants through a network of valves, pipes, and drip emitters. The setup uses a small AC pump to circulate water from a reservoir through transparent tubes connected by 3mm drip connectors, L bends, and T joints to simulate the distribution of water to multiple plants.
The cut off valve is used to control the water flow manually, while the silk wire secures the tubing layout. Mounted on a foam board or sun board, this compact model highlights water conservation techniques and precision agriculture practices, making it ideal for school science exhibitions and student demonstrations.
This system promotes minimal water wastage by delivering water slowly and directly to the plant roots, encouraging healthy growth and eco-friendly farming.

Operation:

• Fill the water tank connected to the model.
• Power the AC pump using the 2-pin top connected to a power supply.
• Water flows through the system, reaching plants via the drip network.
• Water flow can be adjusted using the cut off valve.

Learning Outcome:

• Understanding sustainable irrigation techniques
• Exploring automation in agriculture
• Hands-on learning of fluid mechanics and water management
