Study on Automatic Operation of Large Water Transfer Canal System
The middle route of the South-to-North water transfer project is the longest open channel of China. It has a flat slope and a large design discharge, but lacks necessary in-channel water storage. For the purpose of supplying accurate amounts of water on demand at the right time, automatic operation techniques are necessary. The controlled volume operation method and a new style of water level plus discharge controller for large water transfer project were studied and a simulation model including siphons, aqueducts, and off-takes was constituted. As an example, the simulation of automatic operation of the emergency section of South-to-North water transfer project was carried out and the results showed that the controlled volume method of operation can optimize the water storage of the canal system which is particularly suitable for large water transfer canal systems with complex operation conditions. The results and conclusions provide a technical foundation for the automatic control and management of large scale water transfer canal system especially the South-to-North water transfer project.
