Simulation of Multi-Purpose Multi-Reservoir System Operations by HEC-Ressim

Abstract

In the operation of multi-purpose multi-reservoir system, simulation technique that allows to examine the behavior of the system is preferred. In this study, it was aimed to optimize the annual total energy generated in Aslantaş Dam, Berke Dam and Sır Dam, which were constructed consecutively in Ceyhan Basin, by using the generalized simulation program (HEC-ResSim). Dams have been operated with a multiple reservoir system approach in line with the rules determined for the maximum energy they can generate at present. With this operation policy, it has been concluded that the system can generate 57.87% more than the annual total energy produced in the Ceyhan Master Plan.
