Alternative Method to the Clément’s First Demand Formula for Estimating the Design Flow Rate in On-Demand Pressurized Irrigation Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It has been well documented in specialized literature that, under certain circumstances, the Clément’s first demand formula fails in estimating flow in water distribution networks. Through numerical examples, the authors ...
GoRoSo: Feedforward Control Algorithm for Irrigation Canals Based on Sequential Quadratic Programming
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The feedforward control canal problem is stated as a nonlinear optimization problem with constraints on the gate movements. It is numerically solved with the use of the sequential quadratic problem (SQP) method and the ...
Canal Monitoring Algorithm
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the main problems in the water management of irrigation canals is the control of water distribution among users’ outlets. This is because of the difficulty of measuring the removing flows correctly because they are ...

Application of the GoRoSo Feedforward Algorithm to Compute the Gate Trajectories for a Quick Canal Closing in the Case of an Emergency
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The canal delivery system in the Left Hemidelta area of the Ebro River in Spain consists of a tree-shaped net of open canals. The overall system can be quickly isolated in the case of an emergency by closing the upstream ...
