description In order to realize the goal of ice-free water conveyance in the winter for water conveyance projects in cold regions, the operation principle of ice-free water conveyance through channels is described based on the two ice-melting measures of a solar heating gallery and heated storage tank. Based on the multi-year meteorological data and the theory of a product probability event, the concept of a “comprehensive satisfaction rate” was proposed, and then the joint optimal regulating model under two ice-melting measures was established, and the genetic algorithm was used to solve the problem, which solved the important limitations of the economic and efficiency optimization of different ice-melting measures. This paper applies this model to the Zhanghe control gate–Mangniuhe control gate section of the middle route of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project. According to the optimization analysis of a large number of operating conditions, the operating costs of the ice-melting measures have also increased with the increase in the comprehensive satisfy rate. In the operation process, the water temperature along the lines presents a “ladder-like” shape. The average hourly flow and average hourly water temperature of the heated water storage tank have the characteristics of overall unity and local complementarity. With the increase in the water flow and downstream depth before the gate, its operating cost also increases. The increase in the flow velocity at the same time can increase the heat transfer efficiency, reducing the operating costs. In addition, the water temperature of the channel with a solar heating gallery decreased more slowly than that without a solar heating gallery due to its good thermal insulation effect.
