Water and Sediment Movement in Irrigation Furrows
Water movement in an irrigation furrow is simulated by numerically solving the governing equations of continuity and momentum for unsteady, spacially varied flow in a pervious bed open...
Adjustable Speed Pumping for Irrigation Networks
Adjustable speed technology can be an economically viable method of accommodating the significant fluctuations in flow and pressure produced by certain irrigation networks. Combinations...
Hydraulics and Hydrology of Border Irrigation
Proper description of the hydraulics of irrigation of farmland is necessary in management. Many descriptions of furrow or border irrigation are not adequate to describe truly physically...
Assessing Irrigation Impact on Instream Flow
A hydrologic model to help river system managers determines the demand for irrigation water in a two mile wide strip of land along the river using information which is generally available...
Hydropower Plant on an Irrigation Pipeline
A 940-kW hydroelectric plant was installed on a renovated irrigation pipeline at a Bishop, California ranch. On its way to the ranch, the falling water now generates an average of 4. 2...
Economics and Groundwater
The increasing use of groundwater has resulted in greater lifts, and coupled with increased energy costs is focusing more attention on the economics of groundwater use. The proceedings...
