Chapter:

Reservoirs-and-Dam-Reservoirs-Planning

The lowest portion of capacity-elevation curve of a proposed irrigation reservoir draining 20 km2 of catchment is represented by following data:
i. The rate of silting for catchment = 300 m3 / km2 / year
ii. Life of reservoir = 50 years
iii. Dead storage = 30
iv. The FSD of canal at head = 80 cm
v. The crop water requirement = 250 ha.m
vi. Dependable yield of catchment = 0.29 m
Calculate gross capacity of reservoir.
