The Koshi Barrage is a sluice across the Koshi river in the Nepalese Mithila region that carries vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic between Madhesh Province and Koshi Province of Nepal. It is near the International border with India. It was …

The Kosi or Koshi is a transboundary river which flows through China, Nepal and India. It drains the northern slopes of the Himalayas in Tibet and the southern slopes in Nepal. From a major confluence of tributaries north of the Chatra Gorge onwards, the Kosi River is also known as the Saptakoshi ( Nepali : सप्तकोशी ...

Saptakosi High Dam, also called Koshi High Dam, is a multipurpose project proposed to be constructed on the Saptakoshi River of Nepal. The project is primarily aimed to control floods in south-eastern Nepal and northern Bihar of India, and to generate hydro power. [1]

Sapta Kosi High Dam is a multipurpose project proposed to be constructed on the Saptakoshi River of Nepal (Known as Kosi River in India). The project is primarily aimed to control floods in south-east Nepal and northern Bihar and to generate hydropower. The project will provide irrigation, control floods and generate 3,000 MW of electricity.

2019年3月1日 · The Kosi basin is considered to have significant hydropower potential and at least three multipurpose projects – the Kosi High Dam at Barahkshetra, the Tamor-I, and the Sun Kosi-Kamla Diversion project – have been under discussion (Thapa, 1993, Chinnaswamy et al., 2015). These projects have been conceived for flood and sediment control and ...

2024年5月2日 · British engineers initiated efforts to control the changing course and flooding of the Kosi River in the early decades of the 19th century. They contemplated two options: one proposal involved the construction of embankments on both sides of the river, and the other suggested building a high dam in the Barahachhetra gorge in Nepal to store water.

The Saptakoshi High Dam Multipurpose Project, which was identified as a priority project in the Koshi Basin Master Plan and the same project had been earlier studied by the Government of India (GOI, 1981), is now being studied in detail as a multipurpose project covering the domains of hydro power, irrigation, flood control and inland navigation.

2022年5月2日 · The dam is a 269 meter high (883 feet) concrete dam with a capacity of 3,300 MW at a 50 percent load factor. When completed, it is expected to irrigate 300,000 hectares of farm land both in Nepal and the Indian State of Bihar.

2025年1月21日 · In this paper, an attempt has to made to study the dam break analysis of Kosi Barrage using a 1D hydraulic model known as Hydraulic Engineering Centres River Analysis (HEC-RAS). The River Geometry data and inundation map are extracted from the RAS mapper with the help of the project file and digital elevation model.

2022年4月14日 · Driving the East-West Highway westward from Itahari, Nepal to the barrage, travelers will cross the Indian border briefly, but no visa is required as there is no checkpoint. This structure, built...
