Multi-Purpose, Multi-Reservoir Simulation on a PC

Abstract

The methodology and difficulties in converting a large, general purpose, mainframe, batch oriented computer program (for reservoir simulation) to work effectively in the PC environment are described in this paper. A brief overview of the present capabilities of the general purpose reservoir simulation program (HEC-5), that works on mainframe and MS DOS compatible computers, is also presented. Keywords: Simulation, Personal computer, Reservior system, Flood control, Hydropower, Water supply, Computer programs, Multi-purpose, Multi-reservoir, FORTRAN.
