Abstract:
Reservoirs are the most effective way of regulating streams flows. The inflow process, the reservoir storage and the outflow processes together constitute the stream flow regulation system. The three important variables in this system are reservoir storage capacity, yield of the reservoir and some reliability characteristics. They are related by the regulation regime function. One way of determining the exact shape of regulation regime function is through simulation.
In the present paper regulation regime curves have been developed for the Sabarma ti river at Dharoi . The monthly stream flows for Sabarmati river have been used for this purpose and the annual reliability is used as the reliability characteristic. The regime function is very useful in gaining insight of the regulation problem
