Abstract: Results from both analytical and experimental validation of Simulasoft, a software that simulates spatial distribution of water applied by traveler irrigation machines, are presented. For the analytical validation, values of applied water depth and irrigation uniformity were input considering a sprinkler which presented radial water application profile and had triangular shape, moving along a straight line at constant speed and operating with wetted sectors of 270º and 360º. Comparisons among analytically input values and simulated ones have demonstrated that the two procedures are equivalent. When water depth values determined at four field tests of a traveler irrigation machine, set with a SIME® sprinkler, Big-River model, were compared to simulated values considering the operational conditions observed at field tests, a 91.3% determination coefficient was found. Comparisons among field observed and simulated Christiansen uniformity coefficient values showed that the relative error has a 3.6% average value.
