Abstract

The number of uncertainties involved in the water reservoir system makes it difficult to apply any one particular technique to study it completely. Hence, a study of Uduthorehalla Reservoir in Karnataka, India is done in this context using an optimization and simulation techniques. In this paper, an optimization model is formulated and applied to the Uduthorehalla Reservoir. The annual firm yield is computed using Linear Programming and simulation techniques for 100%, 75% and 50% reliabilities. The firm yields obtained by using continuous yield model, approximate yield model and simulation techniques are 22.73 MCM, 22.67 MCM and 21.89 MCM respectively for 100% reliability level. The monthly targets achieved are close to the respective demands.
