On 02.04.2018, a seminar under the title of “Structure of Dukan Dam” was presented by Barham Hayder (Ph.D. student) who is the head of Civil Engineering in Tishk International University.

In the seminar, a general overview was explained about the different types of dam structure. A detailed information were presented about Dukan Dam such as the coffer dam construction, diversion channel location, duty of spillway and bell mouth, function of gallery and the penstocks which are embedded in the dam  to convey water for the downstream part. There are five penstocks; turbines are located at the end of each penstock. Conveyed water through the penstocks spine the turbines and generate electricity.

We would like to thank Mr. Barham Hayder for giving us his valuable times during the seminar.
