Analysis of the reclamation canal condition and cleaning methods

Abstract

The operating quality of reclamation drainage and irrigation systems depends on the condition of their main elements. The main elements of reclamation systems are canals with various profiles, ranging from rectangular to parabolic. The most widespread in land reclamation are canals with a trapezoidal profile. At the same time, it is possible to note that the natural production characteristics of reclamation systems are quite diverse, this issue is especially relevant for geometric parameters of the canals. In this case, the stable slopes of canals, restoring their profile and cleaning from sediments and silting can only be provided by special complexes of machines. Knowledge of defect types and causes in reclamation canals allows them to be prevented and eliminated in a timely manner. One of the main tasks in this case is to ensure the stability of canal slopes.
