Following a presentation of the operational challenges faced by the canal managers, the use of a simulation model to improve the manual operation procedures of an irrigation canal is detailed. The pilot field site for this IIMI-CEMAGREF collaboration is the Kirindi Oya Right Bank Main Canal (Sri Lanka). The simulation model RBMC is a fully interfaced hydrodynamic model solving complete Saint-Venant equations. Its first applications provided detailed information on canal behavior and a diagnosis on the present manual operation procedures. Its integration in a broader Management Information System provided canal managers with a decision- support package helping them to improve operational procedures. These improvements contributed to increase the water use efficiency.

The management of a manually operated irrigation canal with a number of control structures presents a special set of challenges to the system manager, who is often confronted with the problem of identifying and implementing a coordinated operational strategy to meet water delivery targets in the absence of adequate and reliable information on how the system is functioning. The development of a microcomputer-based mathematical flow simulation model of the Kirindi Oya Right Bank Main Canal is the first phase in IIMI's efforts to provide canal managers with an innovative decision-support tool to help them meet these challenges. This research project was also the beginning of a fruitful, mutually rewarding and lasting relationship between the International Irrigation Management Institute (11MI) and the Centre National du Machinisme Agricole, du Genie Rural, des Eaux et. des Forets (CEMAGREF). This research paper, co-authored by staff members of both institutions, is yet another outcome of this excellent, collaborative relationship.
