Abstract

Classification systems for irrigation water conveyance facility components which directly af Fect the operation of open channel and pipeline systems are presented. Components are initially classified into four groups depending on the water management function they are intended to satisfy: diversion; depth‐control, transfer; and storage. These groups, as presented in various tables, are further classified into thirty‐two types of diversion structures, thirty‐two types of depthcontrol structures, four types of transfer structures, and three types of storage facilities. General equations describing the hydraulics and operation of diversion, depth‐control, and water transfer structures are also provided. Multiple outlet and compound and multifunction structures are also addressed.
