Banias River Basin is located in the middle of the Syrian coast between the Joubar and
Merqiah River Basins. Its catchment area is ) 97 ( km2, and its length is ( 24,5) km.
The research aims to get the optimal management of the available and non-ex
ploited water
resources of Banias Spring, using water evaluation and planning system WEAP. Research
methodology based on collecting data and proposing two scenarios, first: storing of Banias spring
water to provide the water requirement of Banias city, Second: replacing Sin Spring in order to
provide Banias Refinery water. The percentage of coverage is about 88% requirement in scenario
of water supply to Banias city, while differentiated during the year in scenario meet the water
requirement of Banias Refinery, which has reached 84% in the first six months and fallen in
October to 52%. Existing wells in the confined aquifer are used to cover the shortfall in the
requirement.
Information Technology and systems theory with its powerful
mathematical techniques, such as modeling, simulation and optimization,
are very useful tools in the planning, development and management of
water resources. These techniques are even mor
e important in areas
suffering from limited water resources. Their application may contribute
efficiently to the optimal use of the available water resources. The author
has carried out, in cooperation with other researchers, pioneering
experiments of these techniques in Syria, mainly applied to Barada and
Fijeh springs in Damascus area. The present paper aims at presenting
parts of these experiments, study and analysis of the results, beside
revealing the advantage of expanding their application to similar
resources.
During the flow of water in closed drains at high speeds, the pressure can drop to the value that causes the phenomenon of cold boiling and the subsequent formation of dangerous cavitational pockets. High speeds also lead to the attraction of the sur
rounding air and thus the occurrence of the phenomenon of spontaneous ventilation, which plays an opposite role to the phenomenon of cavitation within the structure of the stream, and a role Negatively in the creation of cavernous pockets above the surface of the water.
