For the production of salt from the sea water, to evaporate water from fogs artificially made of sea water falling though the unsaturated air is one of available methods to concentrate the salt. On adopting this method, it is necessary to determine the most effective drop size of fogs which are made by a sprayer, considering the evaporating efficiency and horizontal distance of flight by wind.
We studied its size by field observations and simple numerical calculations and conclude that the most effective drop diameter of fog is about 0.1-0, 2MM., when the height of jet of the sprayer is about 10M for the wind velocity on the coast of Seto Inland Sea.
