“…WDEL can be related to a number of meteorological and technical variables. Therefore, for given meteorological conditions, WDEL can only be modified by adjusting the irrigation system (Maroufpoor et al, 2019;Mohamed et al, 2019;Peters et al, 2016). Irrigation system factors affecting WDEL include nozzle diameter and working pressure (which determine the average drop diameter), and sprinkler type and nozzle height (which determine the trajectory from the nozzle to the soil surface).…”

“…Thus, the efficiency of the use of soil-climatic, material, technical and energy resources largely depends on the applied irrigation equipment and technologies, which, in turn, affect the processes of regulating the water regime of the soil, and, consequently, the ecological safety and productivity of agricultural crops [6]. The most common method of irrigation is sprinkling, since this method is as close as possible to the process of natural precipitation.…”

The most important factor affecting the yield of agricultural crops is the formation of an optimal water regime in the active soil layer. One of the main methods of carrying out such works is sprinkling, since it is closest to the process of natural precipitation. At the same time, existing water sprinklers do not provide watering agricultural lands that meets agro-technological requirements due to the design features and the specifics of the landscape on which they are used, forming in the process of watering zones with excessive and insufficient moisture. In this regard, a positional water sprinkler has been developed, which has the ability to water along a path close to rectangular. Obtaining this trajectory is achieved due to the design features obtained as a result of mathematical modeling. The article presents the structural diagram of the developed water sprinkler, considers the principle of its operation, presents the results of mathematical analysis and modeling of kinematic processes occurring during its operation. The above research results show that the use of the proposed water sprinkler will improve the quality of watering due to the watering trajectory closest to rectangular.
