碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 農業工程研究所 === 83 === The irrigation in Taiwan was traditionally done for the growth of paddy rice, but the irrigation for other crops is growing tremendously in the recent years. The goverment encourage the pipe line irrigation for upland crop by subsidizing the farmer 49% of the total investment on irrigation facilities. The farm size is very small in Taiwan. As a result, the pipe line irrigation systems are not designed carefully in general because the lack of adequate basic information and man power for decent designs. This study is to develop a computer-aided program for use in the design of the pipe line irrigation systems. Basic information, such as pipe, valves, crop, soil, etc. are collected and are built into a database for the use of design engineers. The digitizer are incorporated into the system for input of geographic data. The system main line is determined manually by the design engineers and the rest are done by the program is tested by the design of a tea faem irrigation system and proved to be effectively usable. The engineers may try different design layout and see the results and impacts quickly. A better system design may be done by this computer-aided program
