Sprinkler Irrigation

Description:

The “Sprinkler Irrigation” is an innovative working model for students that demonstrates how automated sprinkler systems can efficiently distribute water in agriculture. This project simulates a smart irrigation system that ensures even water distribution to crops, reducing water wastage and improving efficiency in farming.

The model is built on a 40 × 50 cm Foam Board or Sun Board base, representing an agricultural field equipped with a sprinkler irrigation system. The system operates as follows:

Working Mechanism:

• Water Distribution System:
  • Water is pumped through a 12mm transparent tube, which serves as the primary water pipeline.
  • L-bends and T-connectors are used to direct water flow and distribute it evenly.
• Sprinkler Activation:
  • The AC pump powers the system, forcing water through the tubes and into the sprinklers, ensuring uniform water coverage over the field.
  • A cut-off valve controls the water flow, allowing users to manually turn the system on or off.
• Power Supply & Circuit Connections:
  • A 2-pin top connects the AC pump to the power source.
  • Silk wires ensure proper electrical connections, enabling smooth operation.

Applications & Benefits:

• Efficient Water Usage by distributing water evenly over a large area.
• Ideal for Agricultural & Garden Use to optimize water resources.
• Reduces Manual Effort and ensures proper irrigation without continuous monitoring.
• Provides Hands-on Learning in irrigation automation, fluid dynamics, and smart farming technology.
