Technology for Water Economy Monitoring of Technical State of Closed Drainage on Irrigation Systems

Abstract

Technical state of closed drainage on irrigation systems owing to well-established, conditions for the country's economy development was without due attention beginning since the 90s of the 20th century and this was negatively reflected of their operational capability nowadays. Current survey procedures of closed drainage on irrigation systems are directed at evaluating, as a whole, serviceability of structure system elements for the further operation. When conducting survey a number of questions to the methods and ways to detect faults and defects as well as to forecast remaining life operational capability for the given period of time have been arisen. The objective to develop an automation technology for multifactor survey of closed drainage of irrigation systems is evaluating actual technical state of structural elements and the main equipment by the methods of non-destroying instrumental control, determination of remaining life operational capability of their elements as well as determination of safety deficit to evaluate possibilities of continuing operation above the fixed service life. The positive results of the above evaluation are the basis to prepare a structure for prolongation of its service life.
