| Abstract | Reservoir operation incorporating inflow forecasting models with a monthly basis is developed
in this study. The scheme was applied to Hoabinh reservoir with the biggest hydropower station
of Vietnam, in the North of the country. Different operation scenarios with respect to reservoir
target levels, and inflow inputs (namely real-data, mean-data, Thomas-Fiering, Box-Jenkins, and
Backpropagation inputs) are analysed, then compared. Among the forecasting models
considered, the Thomas-Fiering model, which is also the simplest one, was found to perform
very well. More over, it was also found that in terms of high energy production, low surplus and
low shortage of water supply, the reservoir should be regulated at a high target level. It was felt
that in order to see the real advantage of incorporating forecast inflows, a daily basis should be
considered. |
