| description abstract | CANAL is a computer model that was developed at Utah State University to perform unsteady‐flow simulations for branching canal networks. This paper describes the features of the model and discusses its strengths, weaknesses, and potential applications. Some of the features of a more recent version of the model are contrasted with the version used in this study. Compared to other similar models, CANAL was found to be very robust and user‐friendly, and more appropriate for canal‐management applications than for hydraulic‐design and emergency‐operation analyses. Several test data sets compiled by the ASCE Task Committee on Irrigation Canal System Hydraulic Modeling were used to evaluate the model, and simulation results are compared to a set of field data from the Central Arizona Project. | |
