Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of reservoir scheduling technology, specifically relating to a method for determining the scheduling mode of gradually releasing flood control capacity in stages at the end of the flood season. Background Technology

[0002] The design phase of a reservoir stipulates that reservoirs with flood control functions must reserve flood control capacity for downstream flood-protected areas. This capacity, between the flood control limit level and the flood control high level, is specifically used during the flood season to ensure the flood safety of downstream flood-protected areas. However, reservoir design regulations often prioritize flood safety, controlling the operating water level near the flood control limit level throughout the flood season. Only after the flood season has passed can the reservoir gradually release the reserved flood control capacity for downstream flood protection.

[0003] However, the flood season in the basin is relatively long, generally lasting 2-4 months. The possibility of a major flood at the end of the flood season is extremely low. If reservoirs consistently reserve sufficient flood control capacity and maintain water levels near flood control limits, it will affect the subsequent water storage process. Especially in dry years, low post-flood water levels may impact the benefits of urban water supply, power generation, and ecological water use in the following water supply year. To fully utilize the comprehensive functions of reservoirs and meet downstream water demand, it is urgent to study the hydrological changes and characteristics of the basin at the end of the flood season from a holistic perspective. Under the premise of ensuring flood control safety, it is necessary to explore the possibility of gradually releasing flood control capacity in stages at the end of the flood season to increase reservoir fullness and ensure water supply security.

[0004] Traditional technologies do not comprehensively consider the timing of releasing flood control capacity from reservoirs. They only consider the single factor of the rainy season and cannot reflect the hydrological changes in the basin, nor can they judge the evolution of the flood control situation and flood control needs in the downstream area. Furthermore, traditional technologies release flood control capacity in a one-time manner, which cannot adapt to the gradual decline of flood volume in the basin, resulting in flood control risks and low efficiency in the utilization of flood resources.

For area B, the hydrological station that directly indicates whether there is a flood control need is the water level at station CLJ. The warning water level at this station is 32.5m, the guaranteed water level is 34.4m, and the safe discharge is 60,000 m³. 3 / s.

[0040] According to step 1), long-term rainy season data for region B, long-term water level data for station CLJ, long-term inflow data between reservoir A and station CLJ, as well as flood discharge capacity curves and water level-storage capacity curves for reservoir A have been collected.

[0041] Based on step 2), the statistical analysis parameters for the rainy season in region B are shown in Table 1. The table shows that the rainy season basically ended in early August. The time-history distribution map of excess flood volume in region B is shown below. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the excess flood volume in region B began to decrease significantly starting in early August. The time-history distribution map of the average water level at station CLJ is shown below. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the floodwaters in area B began to recede in late July, and the water level at the flood control station CLJ began to drop significantly. The inflow time history distribution map between Reservoir A and station CLJ is shown below. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the inflow in the section reached its maximum in early July, and then began to recede. By early August, the flood season for the inflow in the section was basically over.

[0042] In summary, the timing for releasing the flood control capacity of Reservoir A as determined in step 2) can be early August, that is, starting from August 1st, the flood control capacity reserved by Reservoir A for flood control in area B can be gradually released.

[0043] Table 1. Statistical characteristics of the rainy season in Region B

[0044] Based on step 3), an analysis of the highest water level values ​​at the CLJ flood control station revealed that when the highest water level before the release date (August 1st) was below 31.0m, the water levels after August 1st were all below the warning level of 32.5m at the CLJ station, indicating no flood control demand in area B. Further analysis of the inflow characteristics in the region when the CLJ station water level was below 31m after August 1st is detailed below [link to analysis]. Figure 5 Statistics show that when the water level at CLJ station is below 31m, the inflow during the same period is also 15,000m. 3 The percentage is below / s and above 99%.

[0045] Based on the above analysis, the criteria for releasing reservoir flood control capacity determined in step 3) are: before August 1st, the highest water level at CLJ station should not exceed 31m, and after August 1st, the inflow between stations should not exceed 15000m. 3 At a rate of / s, Reservoir A can gradually release flood control capacity reserved for flood control in region B.

[0046] The typical flood years selected in step 4) are 1896, 1945, 1958, 1966, 1974, and 1993. Considering different starting water levels at Reservoir A (150.0m, 152.0m, 154.0m, 155.0m, 157.0m, and 158m), with time points of August 21st, September 1st, and September 11th respectively, the flood control risk maps for different time points are shown in the flood control calculations. Figures 6-8 .

[0047] Based on step 5), the final recommended method for releasing the flood control capacity reserved by Reservoir A for flood control in region B is as follows: a maximum release of 3.78 billion m³ is possible in early to mid-August. 3 The maximum release of funds could reach 5.65 billion m³ in late August. 3 The maximum release of funds in early September could reach 7.69 billion m³. 3 .

[0048] This invention provides a method for determining the phased release of flood control capacity in reservoirs at the end of the flood season, solving the scheduling problem of wasted flood resources caused by "empty reservoirs waiting" during the flood season. It improves the accuracy of judgment by comprehensively considering key factors such as rainy season characteristics, the temporal distribution of excess flood volume, the evolution of water levels at flood control stations, and the temporal distribution of inflows between regions. This method accurately captures the evolutionary patterns of floods, breaking through the limitations of traditional single-factor analysis and enabling scientific determination of the timing of reservoir flood control capacity release. This greatly improves the consistency between flood control decisions and actual flood trends, providing solid and reliable decision support for scheduling. Furthermore, it enhances the scientific nature of scheduling decisions by deeply analyzing long-term hydrological big data from flood control stations to accurately identify water level characteristic indicators closely related to downstream flood risks and determine accordingly. The system establishes indicators for judging the release of flood control storage capacity, resolving the fundamental problem of the lack of standards for flood control storage capacity release and providing a scientific basis for scheduling. It also enhances the operability of scheduling by selecting representative flood years for flood control calculations, quantifying flood risk assessments and drawing risk maps. Based on the risk analysis results, it determines the flood control risk characteristic values ​​of different starting water levels at different time points, and constructs a dynamic scheduling method for the gradual release of flood control storage capacity. This provides a scientific basis for reservoir flood control scheduling, ensuring that the scheduling method is both quantifiable and operable, effectively protecting downstream areas from flood threats.

[0049] In addition, the method of the present invention, by accurately judging the timing of the release of flood control storage capacity, gradually releases the flood control storage capacity, reduces water wastage losses, and improves power generation efficiency; at the same time, the rise in water level caused by the release of flood control storage capacity significantly improves the power output of the reservoir power station units during the flood season and improves the efficiency of water resource utilization.
