PHYSICAL BASES OF FILTRATION OF LIQUID THROUGH THE HEMISPHERICAL SURFACE OF THE BOTTOM OF A RESERVOIR

Abstract

The subject of the study is the physical basis of liquid filtration through the hemispherical surface of the bottom of a reservoir, which is an important task in the field of hydraulic engineering and water treatment. The purpose of the study is to optimize this process. Our article examined the process of liquid filtration through the hemispherical surface of the bottom of a reservoir.    To assess the effectiveness and specificity of this filtration method, we carried out theoretical calculations and experimental studies. To determine the amount of water permeating due to liquid filtration through the bottom of the reservoir, a model experiment was performed. The data obtained shows that through the bottom of the reservoir, due to filtration, 1.35 billion m³ of water annually penetrates into the soil of the reservoir bottom. The findings have important practical applications in the design of water treatment systems and operation of reservoirs, including hydroelectric power plants and other water infrastructure facilities.
