INTRODUCTION The Aner River is the longest right bank tributary of the Tapi with a length of 46.31 kilometres. The drainage area is 1,702 sq. km. The river Aner rises at an elevation of 885.6 m above mean sea level about 2 kilometres, north of Tinshemali village in Madhya Pradesh state at north latitude of 21023' and an east longitude of 75045' from the southern slopes of the Satpura hills. It runs towards west through the forest and hilly regions for a length of 72.40 km through http://iaeme.com/Home/journal/IJCIET 1327 [email protected] Raksha Parolkar and Dr. Rajesh Bhargav Satpuda ranges forming boundary between Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh state and then enters in the Maharashtra state, turns towards south for a distance of approximately 94 km and meets the Tapi river near village Piloda. On the upstream side four major tributaries meeting this river are Kaner, Dudhakheda, Chul (Ogai) and Tori. The river has a very steep bed fall during its early course in the Madhya Pradesh region, about 366 m in the first 32 km reach. Further it flattens after the entry of the river in Maharashtra state. At the dam site the river has a bed fall of about 3 m /km. The catchment is fan shaped with very steep in the earlier reaches. The exposed strata is soil, murum with rock outcrop at some places, hence runoff gets collected easily at the dam with minimum loses due to absorption etc. A considerable quantum of monsoon rainfall is absorbed underground which ultimately flows down in the post monsoon period in a large quantity. The average of the percentages for twelve years is about 17%. However, 10% flow has been accounted for in the water planning. The command area is plain and fertile and produces excellent crops when monsoon is favourable. Command area comprises mostly of black cotton soils about 1.5 m in depth and is under laid by yellow soil with lime, kankar particles. Crops both Kharif and Rabi are grown in this tract, however kharif crops are predominant. Bajari, Groundnut, Cotton, Kharif jowar are the main crops in kharif season. The crops in rabi season are rabi jowar, wheat and gram. 1.1. Aner Dam Aner Dam is 8 km away from Hisala village, which is situated near Shirpur-Chopda state highway in Shirpur Tehsil. The dam is constructed for the purpose of irrigation. The height of the dam above lowest foundation is 45.21 m while the length is 2040 m. The volume content is 3,162 km3 and gross storage capacity is 103,270.00 km3. Free board (above M.W.L.) is 2.5 m. Other salient features are- F.R.L. ( ) 215.60 m, H.F.L. ( ) 216.75 m, Top of dam R.L. is 221.0 m The catchment area is 1238 sq.km. The dam site is located at 96.5 km length from the source. The distribution of the catchment area in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh state is 391.6 sq. kms and 846.4 sq. kms respectively. The catchment area lies between longitudes 750- 0’to 750- 15’and latitude 210-15’to 210-30’. 1.1.1. Dam Components Ogee Spillway is used for the design flood of 4318 cumecs. Length of spillway is 147 m. Non overflow section with 6 m top width with batter was provided between 200.00 m to 247.50 m. left bank and outlet located at chainage 235.00 m in this reach. A total of 10 crest gates of radial type of size 12 m x 6.50 m were adopted for spillway 120 m clear over flow length. The piers are streamlined both in the upstream hydraulics and the downstream sides to reduce contraction of the overflowing jet and to provide a smooth water surface. For the 12 m gate span, pier standard thickness of 2.75 m was provided. Calculated tail water levels for normal flood level (Inglish) was at R.L. 181.00. Hence in rock toe of ogee portion was kept at R.L. 183.85 m. on flanks the height of rock toe taken 80 cm thick course sand layer was provided behind the rock toe. Chainage of the outlet is 1880 m. Conduit type outlet is provided. Full supply discharge at the outlet is 3.59 cumecs. R.L. of outlet (sill) is 201.70 m. For the foundation, good rock was available. The rock was prophyratic basalt with verticals vans. Therefore consolidation grouting was done in two rows of holes 6 m deep at 5 m staggered. http://iaeme.com/Home/journal/IJCIET 1328 [email protected] Enhancement of Efficiency and Yield Increment of Irrigation Project of Aner Dam Through Conventional Methods: A Study The outlet is located in the earth dam on right bank at chainage 1947, where ground level was about 203.70 against the sill level 201.70 and top of dam 221.00. The conduit consists of a twin box of size 1.2 x 1.2 m at entry having the emergency and service gates with an easy splay the twin boxes joined in a single conduit of size 1.2 x 1.2 m. Total length of box and conduit was 61.28 m. over the twin box there was masonry well housing stem rods of service gates and its hoist. Four R.C.C. collars are provided in the hearting portion to increase creep path length. Number of constructed joints were provided along downstream face of well to permit differential settlement and expansion joints are provided along the conduit length. A bed slope of I in 40 was provided to the bed of the conduit downstream of the service gate to have a super critical flow through out. A stilling basin 11.5 m long with a baffle block and end sill was provided at end of the conduit. A approach bridge 16 m long and 2.5 m wide formed of steel trusses connects the operating chamber above the well with the dam top. Bed width of the approach channel to the outlet was 9.60 m and is to be excavated for a length of 130 m with a view to avoiding any curve in the alignment of the approach channel which are prone to cause silting and create difficulty in future for operation of the outlet, the approach channel was taken straight from the outlet to the lowest contour of 201.30 m. The outlet has to cater for the maximum discharge of 0.57 cumecs for kharif season. The outlet was located in non over flow section chainage 235 with sill level 205.00. The conduit structure in R.C.C. through N.O.F. section masonry. Size of conduit and box is 15.56 m with bed slope 1:60. The outlet discharge directly in the canal. Stilling basin length 11.25 m/ 1.5 m below sill and provided with baffle block end sill. 1.1.2. Canal and Distribution System The total command area of 4937 hectares irrigates Shirpur taluka of Dhule district through right bank canal having 14.2 km length. The benefited villages are Tonda, Hisala, Taradi, Babhalaj, Bhatpura, Holnanthe, Bhaver, Pilode, Manjord, Ajnad, Pimple, Ghodegaon, Japore. The canal is designed for passing 125 Cusecs discharges. The bed width is 4.20 m with a free board of 0.60 m. The side slopes and bed slopes are maintained at ½: 1 and 1:3500. The capacity calculated as 3.36 cumecs. The command area is irrigated through 13 distributaries and 4 direct outlets. The length of the canal is 5.50 km having discharge capacity head is 20 Cusecs.
