3.3.1 RIVER DIVERSION SYSTEM
Where
T = Re-period (Year)
If from the 3 year design time of the Asahan dam construction period, the
service age of the cofferdam is defined as N = 5 years and the risk of failure R
= 10%, then the diversion river of discharge must be planned with a T = 50
years repeat period. Therefore the channel / pipe diversion is based on the
flood discharge with a 50 year return period with a top discharge of 809 m3 / s.
Equation used for caculate diversion pipe capacity when free flow condition and
stress flow used Manning formula.
Channel duct calculations are based on the flood discharge of the 20 year
replanning plan. As for which needs to be analyzed and done calculations in
plotting the diversion channel are:
1. Based on its topography, the dock conduit at the top / upstream is the
ground channel, in the center of the enclosed square (conduit box) and
downstream is the ground channel.
2. Channel hydrolics relate to the flow patterns of existing rivers that are non
uniform flow. So in calculating the river hydroulic is calculated by using the
standard step method with the formula of Bernoulli as follows:
Where :
= Energy coefficient
= Coarse coefficient.
Loads that work in the form of dead load (due to pressure of the soil
above the box and next to the box) and live load.
Determine rigid frame with matrix methods.
Calculate the end moment
Calculate the forces acting on each part / side, is the top side, the
left and right side and the bottom side.
Based on the above calculation we plan the repeatability on duct
channel like calculation on the bridge.
After the Dam is completed, the diversion channel has to be reclosed, where the
length of our closing channel calculate with the following formula :
Where :
= Security number of sliding hazard = 4.0
