<br />The ratio of volume (V) to height (H) is defined as storage intensity (see <br />figure 4) and is used to establish boundary limits for K2. <br /> <br />LOW STORAGE INTENSITY <br /> <br />~~~L/?f.'~'~ <br /> <br />HIGH <br />STORAGE <br />INTENSITY <br /> <br />----\.

'u" <br />/: .':'i:.::.:. <br /> <br />Figure 4: Storage Intensity <br /> <br />Dams with high storage intensity develop failure hydrographs with very long <br />base times (Tp), so the lower limit of K2 is adjusted downward. However. <br />for Log Lake Dam the ratio of VIH is 27. so K2 boundary limits <br />0.5 ~ K2 ~ 1.5 apply. <br /> <br />The computed dam failurehydrograph for Log Lake is illustrated graphically in <br />figure 5. <br /> <br />CFS <br /> <br />Qp = 13728 <br /> <br /> <br />V= 650 AC-FT <br /> <br />HRS <br /> <br />Tp = 1.15 <br /> <br />Figure 5: Dam Failure Hydrograph.
