TY - JOUR AU - Maherani, Mehdi AB - Abstract Three canal control systems (manual upstream control, automatic upstream control and automatic downstream control) were studied for the main canal of the Shoeibieh irrigation project in Iran. The canal and the selected control systems were modelled in a hydrodynamic modelling package. The operational performances of the canal control systems were investigated and quantified for two water delivery schedules, one with small, but frequent adjustments and the other one with big, but infrequent adjustments. Based on the results of the study, automatic upstream control with a ‘small step’ delivery schedule has been selected for the project.
