Abstract

The choosing of dam location is a very important part of water conservancy project. Through the scientific dam location selection, the quality of water conservancy project can be improved [1]; In order to introduce the process of dam location selection. Take an example of the Kariba dam, picking 24 possible building positions. Then use Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to establish the comprehensive evaluating model of the 6 indicators of the positions such as river width, annual average precipitation, etc. The possible positions can be divided into 3 kinds according to their main function. The kinds are water resource controlling dam, water storage power generation damp and the water storage irrigation dam. After establishing the linear programing model, final decision is that the total amount of the new dam is 15.
