In ts resear, ts ator was evaluated onsderng varable dsarge or outlets loated along te laterals. For ts purpose, two geoetral progressons were establsed between te outlets dsarges. Te rst progresson was apponted between te dsarge o te rst outlet and te outlet w s assued to possess te average pressure. Te next progresson was developed between te dsarge o ts outlet and te ost downstrea outlet w s assued to operate at least dsarge. Te proposed F-ator s a unton o nuber o outlets, te pertted varaton o pressure between te rst and te last outlet, and also te orula beng used to alulate rton ead loss along te lateral. Te results sowed tat Crstansen s etod aurately estates total rton ead loss along te laterals su tat axu relatve error aused by assung equal dsarges n outlets does not exeed 3%.

INTRODUCTION In a pressured rrgaton syste or any oter ydraul syste nludng ultple outlets along te ppes, estaton o te total rton ead loss along a lateral requres a stepwse analyss startng ro te lowest outlet, workng upward and oputng te ead loss aused by rton n ea segent. Nowadays, te nreasng progress n oputer tenology as led to te developent o nueral etods [- 4] w allow easy evaluaton o ead losses along te lateral.

In oter words, we ntend to dsss te onventonal assupton n w total low at te nlet s equal to N q ( q s dsarge o te outlet w possesses te average ead, and N s total nuber o outlets. Ts goal s ollowed by assung two logal geoetral progressons along te lateral. It s to be noted tat n a ppelne wt ultple outlets, tere wll be energy losses aused by te ouplngs and te struture o te outlet usually alled loal losses. owever, tere s also a gradual reduton n te veloty ead as low passes te outlets and ts wll ause an nrease n pressure, w wll balane losses aused by turbulene at outlet ouplngs []. ene, an exat proedure to alulate pressure losses n ppelnes wt ultple outlets annot be usted [0].

Fabratng a test rg n order to evaluate te Crstansen s F ator n anolds, Moaed et al.

It s wort notng tat tese errors wll sgnantly derease te nuber o outlets along te ppe nreases. A reent study by Yldr [8] also testes to ts stateent. Solvng an exaple or te ydraul desgn o a sprnkler rrgaton syste, Yldr [8] reports tat te Crstansen oeent or unequal dsarges o te outlets and.85, l, q 0.35 L/s and N 33 was alulated as 0.367, wle Crstansen [9] gave F 0.3689 or N 33. Our etod also gves F 0.36, w sows tat te assupton o onsderng equal dsarge n te outlets beoes logal wen te total nuber o outlets s large. 4. CONCLUSION In ost sprnkler rrgaton systes, te outlets are unorly spaed along te lateral ppelne. Beause o te portane o estatng te total rton ead loss along te lateral, Crstansen [9] proposed te rton oeent ator F and subtted a table or s results. In te present resear, ts etod was evaluated by onsderng varable dsarge n outlets n order to quanty te relatve error aused by assung equal dsarge n outlets. For ts purpose, two geoetral progressons were assued to exst between te outlets dsarges. Results sowed tat te value o te F ator anges as te total pressure ead varaton along te lateral anges, and altoug Crstansen s etod and our proposed equatons gve approxately slar values or F ator, Crstansen [9] slgtly overestates te total rton ead loss along te lateral, partularly wen N 0 and P 0.. owever, ts overestaton an be negleted sne te axu relatve error between te two etods does not exeed 3%.
