Abstract
A mathematical optimization model was constructed in order to determine the optimal monthly operation of a multipurpose water resource system composed by a single reservoir and a set of wells. The system is responsible for the water supply of Matsuyama City in Ehime Prefecture. The objectives are to find the optimal monthly allocation of water for city supply and irrigation and to maintain the reservoir storage as close as possible to a given target. The model was solved by Quadratic Programming and its characteristics and implementation are presented. Simulations for different conditions are carried out and the results show that optimization models can serve as good supporting tools for the reservoir operators.
