2012)

* J.C.Solanki **B. K.P.Sthar ***C. Prof.A.T.Motiai

Keywords : maximum water release , maximum irrigation benefit, Minimum water loss

In the present study a LP based is applied to a case study of Bisalpur project, Rajasthan, India. The objective of Linear programming planning model is to determine Maximum water release and suitable cropping pattern which yields maximum net benefits. Ten different strategies (variations) of LP are analyzed with various population sizes, crossover constants and weighting factors. . Minimum and maximum CPU time that was elapsed is also analyzed. It is concluded that LP is the best strategy for the planning problem with maximum net benefits of 95.1903 crores of rupees taking minimum CPU time of 2.844 seconds. The present study can be extended to similar situations with suitable modifications.This technique is applied to Watrak reservoir project near At-Pahadia, Ta-Malpur, Dist-Sabarkantha, Gujarat. The Watrak reservoir project is a single purpose irrigation project. The major purpose of the scheme is irrigation and water supply. The water from reservoir is being released to meet the irrigation demands. The data for irrigation demands in command area covering cropping pattern with irrigation intensity and its blockwise distribution are available.

ABSTRACT

I. Introduction

Water is essential basic resource, which is necessary for the existence of human being. It is needed in abundance to meet irrigation, power generation, industrial supplied, low water augmentation and navigation etc. Its availability is restricted in terms of quality, quantity, time and space or combination of all these factors.

Need for efficient integrated management of an irrigation sys-tem is keenly felt due to growing demand for agricultural prod-ucts, the escalating costs of supplying water to farmer’s fields and stochastic nature of water resources (Raju and Kumar, 2003). Due to dwindling supply of water the profit conscious irrigators wish to so allocate the water as to maximize the net benefits with competing alternative crops.

· WATER RESOURCES OF GUJARAT STATE

Gujarat state is situated on the west coast of India between Latitude 20°2’ and 24°41’ N and Longitude 58°8’ and 74°23’ E. The geographical area of the state is 1, 95,000 km2 (5% of total area of India) on the basis of geographical features. Gujarat State comprises three regions:

1. Gujarat regions, the main land covering the central and eastern area of the state

2. Saurashtra peninsular region

3. Kachh region

The main source of water in the state is predominantly sur-face water. There are 17 river basins in Gujarat region, 71 river basins in Saurashtra region and 97 river basins in kachh region, considering the actual allocation of water from the interstate rivers, like the Narmada, the tapi, the mahi and the sabarmati the available surface water resources of the state have been estimated at 40,700 Mcum including 11,100 Mcu.m. of the Narmada river. The countries total surface wa-ter resources are estimated at 1801000 M cu. m. Therefore, the state’s total water resources work out of 2.25 percent of the water resources of India. The lack of the reservoir sites

due to flat terrain a no availability of suitable foundations in the state, further restrict the scope of utilizing the entire available surface water Fe-sources. As against the countries utilizable surface water resources are only 314001 Mcu. m. inclusive of Narmada water. This works out to 4.51 percent of the .country’s utilizable surface water resources.

· SYSTEM ANALYSIS IN WATER RESOURCES PLANNING

Since it is the role of the planner to select the best of all pos-sible alternatives, the various methods of optimization collec-tively called systems analysis are obvious tools for this use. Optimization problems are encountered at three levels in wa-ter planning. The first level deals with individual features of the project. For example, given the cost diameter and head loss diameter function for a penstock, it is possible to use the methods of engineering economy to accurately determine the optimum solution.

The second level involves the single project. Usually, how-ever there are issues of project scale, which must be sepa-rately resolved, the aspects of project scope, which are not quantitatively measurable environmental and ecological con-sequences value of human life, public preference and other, cannot be included in the solution, despite the constrains, mathematical solutions are valuable in defining one possible optimum point, which provides a point of departure for judging adjustments required to satisfy the non quantifiable factors.

The third level of planning involves systems of projects, mul-tiple reservoirs, canals etc. Solutions based on simplifying assumption may indicate a first approximation to the best configuration of the system, but the only method demonstrat-ed successfully involves simulation. A simulation (Operation study) can be programmed for computer solution and many alternative combinations tested to determine, which alterna-tive offers the maximum net benefits.

Multiple uses of project facilities may increase benefits with-out a proportional increase in costs and thus enhance the economic justification for the project. A project designed for single purpose that produces incidental benefits for other pur-pose should not, however, be considered a multiple purpose

project. Only those projects designed and operated to serve two or more purposes should be described as multiple purpos-es. The first real multiple-purpose was the Sacandaga reser-voir in Hudson River basin, New York in United States, which combined flood mitigation with storage of water for power and industrial use down streams.

Since many major multiple purpose projects have been build in the United States, the basic factor in multipurpose design in compromise. A working plan must be devised which per-mits reasonably efficient operation for each purpose although maximum efficiency is not necessarily attained for any single purpose. The physical elements of a multiple purpose project (dam, spillway, sluiceways, gates, power plant etc.) do not dif-fer from those for a single purpose project. The unique feature in multiple purpose design is the selection of physical works and an operation plan that is an effective compromise among the various uses.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

· The aim of the present research study is to determine op-timal operation of Watrak dam located on the main stream of the river Watrak using linear programming teqnique.Using the linear programming maximum water release from reservoir and produce maximum net benefit from crops.

SCOPE OF THE STUDY

· LP technique is applied in Watrak reservoir project to de-termine suitable cropping pattern which yield maximum net benefit in futures..

Linear programming is probably the most flexible and most widely used technique for optimizing the planning and opera-tion of water resource systems. Problems such as, determin-ing the system

yield, finding the size of the reservoir, determining optimum operating procedures are being handled frequently through LP application. Here a mixed integer LP model is used for optimal

operation of the irrigation reservoir. The objective function considered is to maximize the irrigation releases. The objec-tive function and constraints of the model can be mathemati-cally presented as follows.

It is given in Tabular form as below

ConclusionBased on the reconnaissance survey, and detailed study of the available data and using on linear programming tech-niques method are applied to reservoir operation and get maximum water release from the reservoir in watrak dam res-ervoir at Bhampoda village Taluka Malpur, Dist. Sabarkantha
