Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mathematical model of the entire furrow-irrigation process has been developed. This model can be used to analyze and predict the performance of free-draining sloping furrow irrigation systems; capability for preduction of low with cutback was also provided. The model is based on the solution of the complete continuity and momentum conservation equations, which govern the unsteady, gradually varied flow of water in open channels. Therefore, it is a complete hydrodynamic model. In addition, it has been demonstrated that zero-inertia conditions can also be simulated by the present model. A fully implicit finite-difference scheme was used to find approximate solutions for the integrated form of the non-linear governing equations, which are simultaneously solvedby the double-sweep technique. The input to the model consists of the inflow discharge, furrow slape, cutoff (application) time, lenght, roughness (the Manning n), soil-infiltration characteristics (k and a in the Kostiaskov equation), and furrow shape (C and M in the top width equation, B = Cym, for a power-law cross section0. output information consists of advance and recession times, post-irrigation areal distribution of infiltrated water along the furrow, runoff volume, as well as water application and storage efficiencies. Dimensional analysis was applied to reduce the number of governing parameters in the equations. Model performance was evaluated by comparison with field data. The results of both the hydrodynamic and the zero-inertia approaches ...

This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overland flow modelling has been an active field of research for some years, but developments in numerical methods and computational resources have recently accelerated progress, producing models for different geometries and types of flows, such as simulations of canal and river networks. Flow in canals has traditionally been described using one-dimensional, depth-averaged, shallow water models; but a variety of simulation techniques now facilitate the management of hydrodynamic systems, providing models which incorporate complex geometry and diverse flows. Much effort has gone into elaborating canal operational rules based on decision support systems, with the dual aim of assuring water delivery and meeting flow control constraints. In natural water courses, water management problems are associated with the need to meet quality standards. Numerical modelling of advection-diffusion can be used to manage problems related to the movement of solutes in rivers and aquifers. The analysis of solute transport is used to safeguard the quality of surface and ground water and to help prevent eutrophication. Solute flow through the soil can be dynamically linked to overland flow for hydrological and agricultural applications. Advances in modelling also cast new light on sediment transport in rivers, exploring the complex dynamics of river bed erosion and deposition and assist in thee analysis of river-reservoir systems. All these issues are discussed in Numerical Modelling of Hydrodynamics for Water Resources, which will be useful to civil engineers, applied mathematicians, hydrologists, and physicists.
