Optimization and Simulation in Design and Operation of Reservoirs

by A. Afshar,
F. Peyrovian,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: North American Water and Environment Congress & Destructive Water

Abstract:

Due to stochastic nature of rivers, their volumetric yields are random variables. Spatial and temporal redistribution of Water makes the reservoir construction a must. Therefore, water resources management depends on the management of the related storage reservoirs. In this research a mathematical model is developed to simultaneously optimize the storage capacity of a reservoir along with its operation. Reservoir design has an interaction with the assumed operation rule and its disintegration is not justified Therefore a set of optimization equations must be developed and solved simultaneously.
