Application of Inflow Model for Weir Irrigation System without Upstream Dam

摘要

This research was conducted in the upstream watershed of the Mae Yom Irrigation Project, which was located in the Upper Yom River Basin in Phrae Province, Thailand. The most common troublesome in this area is flood and drought and leads to poor water management by difficult river flow forecasting to an existing large weir without upstream dam. The Soil And Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was applied for the simulation of the hydrological system and predicting the daily river flow to the upstream weir during flood season in 2006 and 2011 as for simulating and comparing with observed data. The results were fitted to the observed data with Nash and Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) of ?0.65, and root mean square error (RSME) of 228.0 whereas the mean inflow discharge during wet season in both years was 173.3 cubic meters per second, respectively.
