Abstract
Summary. An automatic regulator for water distribution in open irrigation systems is proposed, which will find application in farms that need reliable accounting data, filling and maintaining specified water levels in irrigation canals.
Introduction. Rational use of water bodies is possible only if reclamation systems are equipped with modern and affordable automation means, which will allow reducing unproductive water losses at the lowest cost of production and operation. The relevance of creating new automatic water flow regulators is due to the increase in irrigated areas for the implementation of the program in the Volgograd region.
Object. The object of the study is the water level regulator in the downstream of the irrigation canal.
Materials and methods. A theoretical justification is given for calculating the capacity of the developed auto-regulator based on an analysis of fluid flow using D. Bernouli's equation and a hydraulic calculation of the regulator elements.
Results and conclusions. An automatic regulator has been developed for water distribution in open irrigation systems, which allows for initial filling in accordance with the calculated flow rate, does not allow overflow, maintains a given water level during operation, does not depend on electricity, has a simple design, resistance to external influences and the ability to be serviced by personnel without special highly qualified training and significant time investment. A theoretical justification is given for calculating the capacity of the developed auto-regulator based on an analysis of fluid flow using D. Bernouli's equation and a hydraulic calculation of the regulator elements.
