Analysis of diversion ratio and study of sediment transport in the first canal station of an irrigation area based on Mike21 hydrodynamic model

Abstract Based on MIKE21 hydrodynamic model, the change of diversion ratio and sediment transport at the first canal station in an irrigation area are analyzed. Two-dimensional numerical simulation is carried out by using MIKE21 FM hydrodynamic module, and the split ratio is studied. In the aspect of sediment transport, the transport path and deposition distribution of different sediment particle sizes are simulated by simulating sediment transport. The results show that under the lowest daily average water level, the diversion canal flow can meet the irrigation demand; The particle size of sediment has a great influence on the deposition distribution and thickness of the approach channel at the first station of the canal, and then affects the water diversion capacity of the pumping station.
