In the Francis River basin, a reservoir was built for irrigation
purposes, this reservoir will supply district X. It is common
knowledge that the basin produces many sediments- Q_Solids of 2000
Tons/year (specific weight of sediments 2.63 kg/m3) Consequently,
he has been commissioned to carry out a project where the following
is analyzed:
• The possible clogging of the reservoir (clogging refers to the
process by which the sediments dragged by the water fill the
reservoir)
• Check if a minimum irrigation flow of 0.002 m3/s is guaranteed
over a year, if not, calculate the flow that could be supplied to
the members of district X.
Within the technical documents prepared in the design of the
reservoir, it was found that it has a contributing basin area of
14 km2, that the design volume of the reservoir is 1,750,000 m3
and that the free surface of the reservoir is 0.24 km2.
Additionally, the following hydroclimatological series of a typical
year were found (Table 1)
As additional information, due to environmental legislation it
is only allowed to dam what is necessary to supply irrigation
activities. Consequently, the surplus of each period of time must
be released. According to the above, you are asked:
A. Make a diagram where the variables that intervene in your
control volume are related
B. Calculate the inlet flow to the reservoir
C. Estimate the irrigation flow in each period of time
D. Indicate if at any time the reservoir becomes clogged, justify
your answer
