More than one million hectares have undergone irrigation modernization in Spain during this century. Irrigation modernization to pressurized systems is currently facing challenges derived from increasing electricity prices and decreasing public subsidies. The economic viability of such projects is compromised, and the number of projects is decreasing. Pressurized collective networks are commonly designed and managed using hydraulic simulation tools and probabilistic hypotheses on hydrant use. In this paper, a simulation tool is presented that widens the scope of the analysis by combining hydraulics with agronomy, agrometeorology, solid-set sprinkler irrigation and economics. The CINTEGRAL software simulates the net benefit of the seasonal operation of a collective pressurized irrigation network. The software incorporates an optimization module for the electricity contract associated to the pumping station. CINTEGRAL runs on a time step of a half-hour, and simulates the irrigation season of a variety of crops.The software was applied to analyze the economic benefit of a Water User Association (WUA) under different design and management scenarios (ondemand, network sectoring and dividing the irrigated area in separate networks).

Um modelo de computador foi desenvolvido para combinar curvas de bombas em série e em paralelo e para determinar o desempenho da estação de bombeamento e das bombas que a compõem. Polinômios são ajustados aos dados das curvas de cada bomba e aos dados combinados da estação de bombeamento. A interpolação "spline" cúbica é utilizada para combinar curvas de bomba de capacidade diferente. Indicadores de desempenho da estação e de cada bomba, individualmente, são calculados para toda a faixa de vazão de operação do sistema. Uma interface gráfica permite ao usuário desenhar o croqui da estação de bombeamento e visualizar os dados de cada bomba e as equações ajustadas. Dados, gráficos e coeficientes de equações ajustadas podem ser impressos. Os cálculos do modelo foram verificados com planilha eletrônica.
