Diagnóstico del funcionamiento hidráulico del sistema de riego porlón - el socorro - reservorio 67 y propuestas para su adecuada operación : Diagnóstico del funcionamiento en flujo permanente de la red de riego porlón - el socorro - reservorio 67 y propuesta de soluciones.

Abstract

This project aims to diagnose the hydraulic operation of the Porlón - El Socorro - Reservoir 67 irrigation system in permanent flow using EPANET 2.2 software to simulate their current situation, analyze the causes that generate the poor flow distribution for the different areas and also study different solutions for their case, that help improve the operation of the irrigation network, so that they help the residents who benefit from this system. The diagnosis of the system Porlón - El Socorro - Reservorio 67 started from the analysis of the irrigation schedules, the flow required for each area and the combinations of opening and closing the 22 distribution valves of the system. With this information, a previous simulation of each combination was developed, and the flow values of the valves were obtained, then a statistical analysis was done considering maximum, minimum and average flows to propose simulation scenarios. Scenarios with and without flow control in the system were proposed. For the scenarios without control, it was considered that Reservoir 67 feeds the system according to its requirements, while for the scenarios with control, only the concessioned flow of 30 [L/s] is distributed to the open valves. Finally, with the results obtained from the simulations, five solutions are detailed that allow the correct operation of the irrigation system and their respective budget for its implementation.
