Reservoir Desiltation Part Ii: a Review on Models and Geomorphological Effects of Flushing
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The existing literature on resulting reservoir geomorphology after hydraulic reservoir flushings has been systematically examined and evaluated. The emphasis has been put on cross-sectional and longitudinal variations in geomorphology due to flushing, but also the available literature on physical models and analytical modeling and a short section on depositional processes are included as well.

One dimensional simulation of flushing sediment through reservoirs
Control of sedimentation in reservoirs of dams is considered to be one of the most important issues in exploitation of dams and increasing their useful life. Reservoirs act as traps for sediments and prevent transport of sediments to the river. The deposited sediments will decrease the capacity of the reservoirs so that they cannot be in use any more. Various methods are discussed in this study...
متن کاملModel study reservoir flushing
Sediment flushing of reservoirs is an operational technique, whereby previously accumulated sediments in the reservoirs are hydraulically removed by accelerated flow when the bottom desiltingoutlets of the dam are opened. In this research, the process of sediment flushing is simulated by a three dimensional numerical model in which sediment and flow interaction are reflected in the reservoirs. ...
متن کاملEffect the kind of sediments on Scour Cone in Pressure Flushing
The accumulation of sediments in reservoirs of dams has always been one of the problems of reservoir dams. Accordingly, one of the approaches to address this problem can be referred to as the method of pressure flushing. In this method, during the course of flushing, generally the bottom drainage outlets of the dam are opened for a certain period of time and the reservoir water level is kept al...
متن کاملConceptualization of Hydraulic and Sedimentary Processes in Downstream Reaches during Flushing of Reservoirs
The main focus of this paper is to describe the active hydraulic and sedimentary processes in downstream river reaches during flushing of sediments from reservoirs. During flushing extreme amounts of sediment may be released. Therefore, these processes are different than those downstream from dams and reservoirs not subjected to flushing. Hence, also the effects differ, which knowledge of may b...

This is the second of series on the impact of dust. It focuses on the physical, chemical and physiological effects of dust particles and aerosols. Plants of all types and classes (from algae to forest trees and everything in between) are adversely affected either directly through abrasion by airborne particles or through interference with plant physiology or indirectly through the impact on soi...
