The matchup study among the reservoir's input volume, reservoir capacity and the deployed data based on SWAT model -a case study of Zhelin reservoir

The capacity is an important parameter of the reservoir, the variety of which plays a key role in the circulation of reservoir. The two most important factors, which affect the reservoir's capacity, are the input volume and the output volume. This paper simulates the input volume with the help of SWAT model which take the basin's underlay into account, and get the real output volume data from the practical deployed management. Under such basis, the paper analyzes the month's input volume, the month's output volume, and the change of the reservoir's capacity of Zhelin reservoir. The study shows the matchup is pretty good among the reservoir's input volume, reservoir capacity and the deployed data in Zhelin reservoir. This study could help the decision-makers to forecast the right output volume under a special weather condition to deploy the reservoir' capacity to ensure it's safety and make the greatest profit at the same time.
