Abstract

The impounding stage of the reservoir is a stage after the implementation of dam construction is finished. The process of reservoir impounding is started by closing the tunnel diversion gate and the elevation of the water level will be moving up slowly. The speed of the increasing reservoir water level elevation is affected by the dry season or rainy season, so it is arranged in such a way for obtaining the daily increase is not more than 1.0 m/day, due to dam safety. This research intends to build this modeling, at first by studying which variables are affecting in order to get the safe period of impounding. The methodology consists of a correlation analysis of inflow, outflow, and the ratio between storage volume and inflow volume to the optimal impounding equation. The statistical hydrology approach is used in this modeling that will assess the 7 observed reservoir impounding which is started from base elevation until Full Supply Level (FSL). This modeling will help in decision-making about the selection of the safe and optimal period of reservoir impounding. At the end of impounding, the reservoir will be full and it starts to be allocated regarding the utilization that has been designed.
