“…The purpose of water allocation is to distribute water optimally between nodes in the system [9]. For that purpose, MEQAA-G was built with characteristics of: i) as a "calculating machine" of water allocation with a maxequal K-factor, after drinking water and ecosystem are fulfilled [23], dan ii) using the technique of "tracking" system scheme to create NE.…”

“…MEQAA-G is supported by Excel-VBA, because it is popular/practical for nonprofessional programmers and its code format is relative simple to run such a great program [28]. Solutions on water resources system are often using optimization [9], [23], [24] and [30], such as linear programming (LP). In [9], [15], [20] and [30], optimation/simulation model is used to attain system operation decisions.…”

“…In the beginning, this model was called MEQAA-E (Embryo), a conceptual model with a linear simulation-optimization based on mass balance equation. The optimization concepts of MEQAA-E [5] is: i) to control the utilization of local inflow [23], ii) based on node in independent system [14] and [2], and iii) refers to the principle of mass balance [30] and [9]. Based on the concepts, linear network equation (NE) can be formed according to the system configuration.…”

Abstract. In Indonesia, water is public goods so it is necessary to control water allocation. Inequity of water allocation between water users is expanding largely, including irrigation as the largest user, while the density of headworks in the river are getting higher. Considering that water is limited, the practice of irrigation water allocation needs to be refined, from the traditional equity to volumetric equity. MEQAA (Model Equalisasi Alokasi Air/Equalization Model of Water Allocation) plays a role in determining water sharing between headworks in order to meet the maximum-equal K-factor in river. MEQAA-Generic is a calculation machine with: analog-deterministic dynamic model; network equation according to mass balance and linear optimization; independent-based system; sustainability-efficiency-equity constraints; Ms. Excel-VBA. The inputs are: scheme system, local inflow, and irrigation demand. The outputs are: K-factor, release and ecosystem quote. The model performance is identified by comparing the output to the class of K-factor based on treatment of water distribution. The model test is performed in an uncontrolled and complicated system in Kukusan Tanggek watershed with 24 headworks in Lombok river basin. As long as it is adequate for water sharing, MEQAA-G can always produce maximum-equal K-factor. The output model is used to operation control.
