Using Design expert analysis software and Fluent to obtain simulated flow data, a four-factor three-level response surface experiment based on open channel flow was built to screen out the first-order terms, interaction terms and quadratic terms that have a significant impact on open channel flow. Combined with variance analysis, the model correlation coefficient R was obtained. 2 =0.9905, indicating that the constructed model has good reproducibility; S2-4. Combined with response surface analysis, the water level H before the gate, the flow velocity V0 before the gate, the gate opening e and the weir height H are obtained based on the sluice-weir series regulation method. t quadratic multinomial regression model for the moderating variables; S3. Analyze the influencing factors of the preliminary open channel flow calculation model based on the sluice-weir series regulation built in step S1, fit the flow calculation model built in step S2 according to the measured data, obtain the open channel flow fitting model based on the sluice-weir series regulation mode, and bring the flow parameters in the measured data into the following flow formula to obtain the gate flow Q S : Among them, H, V0, e, H t measured by a real-time data acquisition device (101); S4. When irrigation is carried out, the real-time data acquisition device (101) obtains water flow information, the pull-wire sensor (1013) on the adjustable gate (2) collects gate opening information, and the angle sensor (1014) on the flip weir (3) collects weir height information and transmits it to the flow calculation device (2041); the flow calculation device (2041) calculates the current open channel flow Q1 according to steps S1-S3; S5. The irrigation time is obtained based on the amount of water required for farmland irrigation and the open channel flow Q1 obtained in step S4. If the irrigation time does not meet the irrigation demand, the opening of the gate and the reversing weir is adjusted to obtain the gate flow Q2 that meets the operation demand.

7. The open channel flow regulation method according to claim 6, characterized in that: The specific method of adjusting the opening of the gate and the reversing weir in step S5 includes: Adjusting the gate opening: The main control module (204) controls the motor and the motor driving device (206) of the adjustable gate (2) by using the RS485 communication method, and the motor and the motor driving device (206) drive the worm gear hoist (205), which in turn drives the screw rod (203) to drive the gate plate (201) to adjust the gate opening. Combined with the gate opening information fed back by the pull-wire sensor (1013), the gate opening information is obtained in real time, and the gate opening is adjusted until the opening requirement is met; Adjust the opening of the flip weir: the main control module (204) sends the adjusted weir height information according to the irrigation time and the irrigation water demand, and controls the hydraulic cylinder (304) to adjust the feed amount of the cylinder to complete the adjustment of the flip weir height. Combined with the information feedback of the angle sensor (1014), the weir height H is obtained in real time. t , control the hydraulic cylinder (304) to adjust the weir height until the weir height requirement is met. t Carry out secondary confirmation of irrigation flow and irrigation time to complete the main flow control process.
