Group III

Flood Control Measures

Names and nations

• Student from Poland: Zawistowski Aleksy, Wiecheć Bartlomiej, Dziadek Michal, Chrapek

Pawel

• Student from Austria: Auer Theresa, Schlager David, Taschl Ines

• Student from Czech Republic: Formánková Andrea, Háva Lukáš, Ištok Tomáš, Poborská Anna, Sokolík Jakub, Šimánková Eva, Urbanová Zuzana, Krebsová Lenka, Hruška Martin, Nováková Tereza, Novotná Dagmar, Novotná Tereza

• Student from Hungary: Nagy Alex, Mészáros Richárd, Nagy Gábor, Kóder Kinga

Task

• Measuring the flow rate of different rivers

• The Lužnice River

• The Nežárka River

• The Blatský Brook

Floods

Flood control measures • As a prevention against floods are used

river channel reconstruction and the environs.

• Two alternative methods exist: mobile and fixed barrier.

• Dry polder Krkavec• Polder is dry reservoir , which retains high

water. • Two variants of the construction of dry

polder are decided.

Variant 1• Culmination flow Decreasing

of the effect

• Twenty years floodQ20 = 189 m3/s → 51 %

• Fifty years floodQ50 = 253 m3/s → 55%

• One hundred years floodQ100 = 315 m3/s → 55%

Variant 2• Culmination flow Decreasing

of the effect• Twenty years flood

Q20 = 189 m3/s → 24 %

• Fifty years flood

Q50 = 253 m3/s → 14%

• One hundred years floodQ100 = 315 m3/s → 9%

• Calculation of revolutions in time

• Calculation of the speed of the water flow

• Making profiles of the rivers

Calculation of data

How we measured

• Special instrument: current meter

• Method: measure width of the river Allocation Measure flow rate Calculation

Comparison: our results with the results from CHMI (= Czech Hydrometeorogical Institute)

Location of measurement Flow rate (m3 .s-1) Data of CHMI

the Lužnice River 0,562 0,984

the Nežárka River 2,73 2,84

the Blatský Brook 0,103 x

Summary• Our results are coresponding with average

rates meassured by CHMI.• In 2002, the high water striked also Veselí nad

Lužnicí and this flood was the most severe flood recorded in the history. During the floods 415 houses were flooded (that is, 40 % of the area of this city was flooded). In Veselí nad Lužnicí the floods repeated in 2006.

Flood control measures

• In Veselí nad Lužnicí flood control measures will be implemented in 2009 and this project will be finished in 2011.

• As a prevention against floods are used river channel reconstruction and the environs. Two alternative methods exist:mobile and fixed barrier.

• The mobile barriers are installed just before the flood starts. The mobile barriers are constructed from sand-bags and mobile dikes.

• The fixed barriers are firmly connected to bedrock.
