Assignment Help:
Ft. Loudoun and Watts Bar are two large hydroelectric dams, the former
upstream of the latter. The level of Watts Bar Lake must be kept within limits for recreational
purposes, and the problem is to plan releases from Ft. Loudoun to do so. In reality this problem
is solved simultaneously for numerous dams covering an entire watershed, but we focus on a single
reservoir. There are also sophisticated models for predicting runo into the reservoirs, but we
will suppose that runo is negligible. Thus any water entering Watts Bar Lake must be released
through Ft. Loudoun Dam.
The planning period is 20 months. During month t, let xt be the average water level of Watts
Bar Lake before augmentation by water from Ft. Loudoun; x1 = 25. Let yt be the number of
feet added to the average level in month t from Ft. Loudoun. Lt and Ut are the lower and upper
bounds on the lake level in month t (more restrictive in summer). To model seepage, evaporation
and hydroelectric release through Watts Bar Dam we suppose that Watts Bar Lake begins month
t+1 at a level equal to .75 times the average level of the previous month (including the augmentation
from Ft. Loudoun). The cost of water from Ft. Loudoun Lake is ct for every foot added to the
level of Watts Bar. Formulate the appropriate LP model. (In reality the model is a huge nonlinear
program.)
