Popis: | The small-scale tank irrigation system is an effective option for sustainable agricultural water development. The management strategy for water release in such a system is considered in the framework of variational calculus. A minimum principle is deduced to characterize an optimal strategy minimizing a performance index that evaluates water content deviation in the command area and the time when the irrigation tank dries up. The optimal strategies are demonstrated in two practical example systems. |
