Improving the method of calculating the water balance of the Khan canal

Abstract In this article, the Morgunenkov (Khan) canal in the Chirchik-Ohangaron Basin Management for Irrigation Systems area was selected. This canal is one of the more important canal in Tashkent region because it supplies water to irrigation fields in the Urta Chirchik, Buka and Akkurgan districts of the region. In this paper the technical condition of the canal and its hydrotechnical facilities was studied. The received data was entered into the database of the processed program and the efficiency of the canal was determined. The program helps to quickly and easily identify defects that cause water wastage. This is the reason for increasing the hydraulic efficiency of the canal. In addition, the developed computer program allows for the correct distribution of water resources of the Morgunenkov (Khan) canal, taking into account the demand for water in the entire system, to prevent water shortages in the downstream areas of the canal. The benefit from the practical application of the program will be at the expense of improving the efficiency of water resources management.
