Numerical simulation of the effects of downwash airflow and crosswinds on the spray performance of quad-rotor agricultural UAVs

To elucidate the influence of rotor downwash airflow on droplet dynamics during agricultural UAV spraying, this study established a three-dimensional gas-liquid coupling numerical model. The synergistic effects of flight speed (1–5 m/s), operation altitude (2–4 m), and crosswinds (0–2 m/s) on drople...
