Engineering design study demonstrates modular irrigation and drainage systems with automated flushing for agricultural soils, indicating improved durability and clog resistance.
The purpose of the research was to develop new technical solutions for irrigation and drainage systems to regulate the water regime of soils with the possibility of washing and cleaning from chemical clogging. To substantiate and develop the proposed design solutions, a search and analysis of designs proposed by various scientists, such as Gurbanov M.F., Salakhov F.S., Kovalenko V.P., Galkovsky V.F., Golubenko M.I., Kruzhilin I.P., Shchedrin V.N. and others, was conducted. The design method was used in the process of developing technical solutions. The existing drainage systems are often in poor technical condition due to siltation and chemical clogging, which necessitates the development of drainage systems that can automatically flush and clean chemical deposits, as well as allow for modular expansion of the occupied areas. he idea behind the proposed design solutions is to increase the efficiency and durability of the system by preventing siltation and chemical clogging of the drains, as well as to increase the reclaimed area. The proposed radial irrigation and drainage systems allow for the cleaning of drains from various contaminants, and the modular principle in the modular irrigation and drainage system additionally allows for the use of this system on areas of varying sizes. The developed systems can be automatically flushed to remove silt and chemically cleaned to remove chemical deposits. In a modular system, it is possible touse it in various areas when adding a module to an active module(s) along their line of contact, when used as common external drains with shut-off devices and the outermost wells of the active module(s). At the same time, the proposed irrigation and drainage systems allow for the supply of irrigation water to circular sprinklers for automated irrigation of agricultural crops
