Abstract

Optimal planning and operation of water resources are
depend on a complex structure and process that include country economics and
life standards. Currently, sustainable use and development of water resources
to maximize possible benefits are the two big challenges to be overcome and
efficient use of hydro power forms a significant component of this. In this
study, a water resources system with multi-objectives and multiple reservoirs
is described. It is considered to three scenarios in this system. The system is
set up on the optimal operation model for the long term planning. The technique
of the dynamic programming with successive approximations is used for
the model. Objective
function in the optimization model has two stage, maximization of firm and
total energies. The model is applied to a water resources system with
multi-objective and multiple reservoirs presented successively on the main and
secondary line of the Yeşilırmak River in the Yeşilırmak River Basin.  Results obtained are evaluated to
the maximization of the energy production. Accordingly, the firm energy
obtained from the optimal operational model for long term planning is presented
approximate the value determined by empiric equations, and also the average
energy in the model is % 32 better than the value determined by empiric
equations. It is observed that the optimization process of the reservoirs with
the highest operational storage was controlled and managed.
