    2. B1.2 Reservoirs Topics Why store? Raise head, smooth flow, conflicts and trade offs Determination of reservoir volume/height Mass curve approach, simulation approach Dam design Forces on a dam, Types of dam, Seepage, Spillways Technical problems with dams Silting, failure Social impact of dams Seminars (Monday W6)

    3. B1.2 Reservoirs Seminars: Monday 17/1, 16:00

    4. B1.2 Reservoirs Seminar groups

    5. B1.2.1 Reservoirs Why store Raise head Hydro power Allow greater flow to irrigation Smooth flow Reliable Hydro power Off season irrigation Flood control Domestic Water supply Other reasons Fishing Leisure

    6. B1.2.1 Reservoirs Why store: Conflicts Maximising head vs. Maximising storage If the storage is used, the head is reduced Water use vs. flood control Water use prefers a full reservoir (for use later) Flood control the reservoir should be empty (so floodwater can fill it)

    7. B1.2.1 Reservoirs Why store: The anatomy of a reservoir

    47. B1.2 Reservoirs Summary Storage needs may conflict Mass balance and the mass curve are useful ways to size reservoirs Seepage is an issue with earth dams but can be dealt with by zoning There are several varieties of spillway, including side channel, chute, shaft, syphon, and ogee Hydraulic jump is a useful technique to reduce spillwater levels Dams can fail by silting, overtopping, foundation failure wave action, erosion and lack of maintenance Dams can have social and environmental impacts
