Dynamic Simulation Study on Water-Supply Volume of the Hanjiang-to-Weihe River Water Diversion Project

The calculation of water supply is affected by many factors, such as water requirements, water-supply capacity, etc., which change with time and the environment. The traditional calculation methods are generally used under several fixed operating situations. The scenarios are too few to cover the various situations encountered in actual operations and take insufficient account of boundary conditions, such as reservoir inflow, water requirements, etc. The water-supply schemes facilitated by these methods are finite and not adaptable to the ever-changing, producing environment. Therefore, based on a traditional water supply-demand balance analysis, this study established a dynamic calculation model that takes into account different variables, such as reservoir inflow, ecological flow, and water demand. This study also constructed a dynamic simulation system based on the comprehensive, integrated platform and dynamic calculation model, which shortens the calculation period from a month to a day. The results show that the water-supply assurance rates calculated under different conditions reach higher than 93.9% for domestic and production, and higher than 50.9% for agriculture, which all exceed the design assurance rates. Additionally, the dynamic calculation model can significantly improve the calculation efficiency, playing an important role in the formulation of the project-operation plan and project-benefit evaluation
