The novelty of the research project reported in this paper is the coupling of hydrological and hydraulic modeling which are based on the first principal of fluid mechanics for the simulation of flash floods at Wadi Elarish watershed to optimize the a new location of another dam rather than Elrawfa dam which already exist. Results show that, the optimum scenario is obtained by the construction of the west dam. As a direct result of this dam, the downstream inundated area can be reduced up to 15.7 % as function of reservoir available storage behind the dam. Furthermore, calculations showed that the reduction rate of inundated area for 50-year floods is largely more than 100-year floods, implies the high ability of west dam on flood control especially for floods with shorter return period.

Kabul River

The Kabul River, while having its origin in Afghanistan, has a primary tributary, the Konar River, which originates in Pakistan and enters Afghanistan near Barikot-Arandu. The Kabul River then re-enters Pakistan near Laalpur, Afghanistan making it a true transboundary river. The catastrophic flood events due to major snowmelt events in the Hindu Kush mountains occur every other year, inundating many major urban centers. This study investigates the flood risk under 30 climate and dam management scenarios to assess opportunities for transboundary water management strategy in the Kabul River Basin (KRB). The Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) is a watershed-scale hydraulic modeling tool that was employed to forecast peak flows to characterize flood inundation areas using the river flood routing modelling tool Hydrologic Engineering Center - River Analysis System -HEC-RAS for the Nowshera region. This study shows how integrated transboundary water management in the KRB can play a vital catalyst role with significant socio-economic benefits for both nations. The study proposes a KRB-specific agreement, where flood risk management is a significant driver that can bring both countries to work together under the Equitable Water Resource Utilization Doctrine to save lives in both Afghanistan and Pakistan. The findings show that flood mitigation relying on collaborative efforts for both upstream and downstream riparian states is highly desirable.

Design Pressure

During a core disruptive accident (CDA), the amount of primary sodium that can be released to Reactor Containment Building (RCB) in Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor (PFBR) is estimated to be 350 kg/s, by a transient fluid dynamic calculation. The pressure and temperature evolutions inside RCB, due to consequent sodium fire have been estimated by a constant burning rate model, accounting for heat absorption by RCB wall, assuming RCB isolation based on area gamma monitors. The maximum pressure developed is 7000 Pa. In case RCB isolation is delayed, then the final pressure inside RCB reduces below atmospheric pressure due to cooling of RCB air. The negative pressure that can be developed is estimated by dynamic thermal hydraulic modeling of RCB air / wall to be −3500 Pa. These investigations were useful to arrive at the RCB design pressure. Following CDA, RCB is isolated for 40 days. During this period, the heat added to RCB is dissipated to atmosphere only by natural convection. Considering all the possible routes of heat addition to RCB, evolution of RCB wall temperature has been predicted using HEATING5 code. It is established that the maximum temperature in RCB wall is less than the permissible value.
