Intake Design

This document summarizes the design of the outer intake and orifice for the Arung Khola Hydropower Project. It includes calculations for the required intake discharge, orifice dimensions and area, total loss at the intake, water levels for different flood scenarios, and notes the intake will regulate flow using gates to maintain submergence. Key parameters designed include an orifice area of 6 square meters across 2 openings, a total intake width of 5.15 meters, and an intake headwall elevation of 273.622 masl.
