Özet

The purpose of this study is to assess Haditha Dam’s catchment area and accessible surface area in order to guarantee that these regions can hold water without being at risk of floods. Using topographic data, the study simulated the two-dimensional catchment area and flow area below the dam. The monthly increase in water storage was then computed using the water balance equation and HEC RAS software. These increments were used to determine the required flow that might be utilized to run the dam more efficiently. Significant outflows were found at the start of the operational year. These volumes will probably cause water to accumulate, water levels to increase quickly, and heights to climb. In order to make sure that these regions can store water without running the danger of flooding, the goal of this study is to assess the catchment area of a contemporary dam and its accessible surface area. The study generated a two-dimensional catchment region and flow area below the dam using topography data. The water balance equation and HEC RAS software were then used to determine the monthly increase in water storage. The necessary flow that could be utilized to run the dam as effectively as possible was calculated using these increments. This assessment provides a comprehensive analysis of the dam’s capacity to manage water storage efficiently and mitigate flood risks, contributing to sustainable water management practices.
