Abstract

This paper presents a survey report of design of dam with de-silting. Siltation is most often causes by soil and sediment spill. Due to silting capacity of live storage of reservoir decreases rapidly as well as silt also effects on the durability of structure of dam and the usual method of river flow diversion involves construction of tunnel and cofferdams. The cost of diversion work could be as high as 10-20% of total dam construction cost. The cost of diversion works depends on factors such as the tunnel dimension and intended tunnelling support measures during and after excavation. The quality of the rock through which the tunnel should be excavated and dimension of the upstream and downstream cofferdams. The optimum diameter and the total diversion cost are directly related to the river flood discharge. According to report of hydro power plant in India, there are various renewable resources like sun, wind, water, ocean and tidal. The power generation using hydro resources offers sustainable zero energy input cost, zero greenhouse gases emission, low operation and maintenance cost. These are currently near 17% of the world total power generation is based on hydro resources and it share to renewable power generation is 70%. All the systematic process which are discuss in paper.
