Optimum irrigation reservoir operation is a significant issue for water management decision makers. In this study, we used 4 different datasets of monthly amounts of water to be released from the Eleviyan irrigation reservoir in Iran as inputs in a data mining model; "if-conditional" operating rules were determined as outputs. Operating rules derived from data mining and rules obtained from an optimization model were in high concordance, especially between the 2 datasets from the preconstruction period, with differences in only 12 of 252 instances (252 months) used to compare the 2 methods. Operating rules determined for the preconstruction period using the data mining method were also consistent with optimum operating rules determined either by optimization or Monte Carlo simulation. Thus, we concluded that the decision tree subtechnique of data mining is an appropriate method for determining meaningful operating rules for the reservoir.

Rehabilitation of water supply systems
Toğrul, Nevzat; Merzi, Nuri; Department of Civil Engineering (2015)
Management of water supply systems by an economic and efficient way is a significant issue for water authorities. Selection and operation of water supply elements appropriately to satisfy water need affects the energy consumption of the system. This study aims to constitute a long term rehabilitation plan for water supply elements (only storage tanks, pumps and transmission line pipes are in the scope of the study). A case study has been performed on N8.3 pressure zone of Ankara water distribution network. ...
Investigation of sustainable development potential for Ulubey Aquifer System, Turkey
Burcu, Unsal; Hasan, Yazicigil (2014-06-06)
This study investigates sustainable development potential for Ulubey aquifer system which serves as an important water supply for Usak province (Turkey). In recent years, growing population, accelerating industrial activities and decreasing rainfall, as well as contamination of the surface water resources, made groundwater indispensable to meet the freshwater demands of Usak province. Therefore, a sustainable groundwater development plan has to be set up by determining the sustainable yield of the system, w...
Development of water quality management strategies for the proposed Isikli reservoir
Gunduz, O; Soyupak, S; Yurteri, C (1998-01-01)
A two-dimensional laterally averaged hydrodynamic and water quality model (CE-QUAL-WS) is used to simulate the water quality behavior in the proposed Isikli Reservoir of the Ankara Water Supply System to determine appropriate strategies for the management of water quality.
Combined simulation-optimization of a coastal aquifer by using Genetic Algorithm
Demirbaş, Kerim; Altan Sakarya, Ayşe Burcu; Onder, H. (2010-06-25)
Excessive pumping in coastal aquifers results in seawater intrusion where optimal and efficient planning is essential. In this study, numerical solution of single potential solution by Strack (1976) is combined with Genetic Algorithm (GA) to optimize the maximum benefit in a coastal aquifer. Injection wells are added as an artificial recharge to prevent seawater intrusion. The objective is to optimize both pumping rates and locations of injection wells. The model is applied to a previous work by Mantoglou (...
Development of a methodology for identification and control of the chemicals of the greatest concern: Yeşilirmak River Basin case study
Küçük, Elif; Yetiş, Ükü; Department of Environmental Engineering (2018)
The EU Water Framework Directive (WFD) (2000/60/EC) aims to achieve good water status of surface water and groundwaters. For the purpose of evaluating chemical status, the Member States are required to monitor 45 priority substances in water bodies. To ensure good ecological status, the WFD requires the Member States to identify “river basin specific pollutants” and establish the environmental quality standards for these pollutants. In accordance with the WFD, main objectives of this study are to find out t...
