An interactive management system for operational control of Kirazdere reservoir(Turkey)

摘要

This article presents a prototype, user-interactive computing system for the operational management of the Kirazdere reservoir in Turkey. The aim is to make best use of the full storage capacity of the reservoir for meeting the contractual water-supply obligations as consistently as possible, having regard to the possible risk of downstream flooding. In determining the amount to be released for supply purposes in any one month, the system takes account of the current storage level and predicted inflow. In doing so, the system incorporates the prevailing situation with water- release rules previously derived using a combination of optimisation and simulation-based scenarios analyses, thereby providing a comprehensive analytical capability which is easy to manipulate.
