Gotvand earth fill dam is under construction in Great Karun basin on Karun River in southeast of Iran. It is located in geological formation of Gachsaran, Mishan, Aghajari and Bakhtiari. A general survey over geological formations and material of their constituent stones depicted that Gachsaran formation includes Anhydrite, Colorful Marl, Shale, Conglomerate Lenses and limited Shale and Salt. Gotvand dam reservoir have 90 km length and 4000 mcm storage. Considering Evaporates such as Gypsum (Anhydrite) and Salt in formations inside reservoir, investigating quality of reservoir water by proper qualitative methods seems necessary. In this study to investigate quality of reservoir water, a two Detailed Tasks Assigned on Reference to Prior Work/Assignments that best Illustrates Consultant’s Team of Capability to handle the Assigned Task Experts dimensional method of CE-QUAL-W2 has been used in a year on daily basis to stimulate thermal stratification and TDS. For stimulation of thermal stratification relevant reservoir data for agricultural and hydropower purposes have been used. In order to stimulate thermal stratification in Gotvand reservoir all relevant statistics and data (meteorology, discharge entry to reservoir, exit discharge, water temperature, TDS and reservoir geometry) for the year 2005 have been collected and utilized in the model. Also effect of upstream dams (Shahid Abbaspour, Karun3 and Masjed solyman) has been considered. Results of this study show that thermal stratification in Gotvand dam is sustainable and strong during the year. Annual cycle of thermal stratification starts in February. At first, temperature of beneath layers increases due to mixture of layers in mid January. Along with increase in temperature of environment in spring, beneath layers temperature decrease and upper layer temperature as the result of increase in temperature during spring and summer. In the contrary, in beneath layers temperature alteration decrease and almost stabled in these two latter seasons. At the end of fall by decrease in temperature, temperature guardian between lower and upper layers also decreased and as a result stratification weakened and destroyed in winter. *** Name of assignment or project: CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISION OF SALMAN FARSI DAM Year: 2006-2007 Phases: Construction Supervision Location: Fars Province, Iran Client: FARS REGIONAL WATER AUTHORITY
