Estudio de factibilidad de la etapa hidrológica para la implementación de un dique con fines turísticos ubicado en el sector El Sombrero perteneciente a la comunidad de LLangahua en el cantón Ambato, provincia de Tungurahua

Abstract

In view of the lack of appropriate areas for a trout hatchery, with the purpose of implementing a dam and thus promote tourism in this population, a hydrological feasibility study was carried out in the El Sombrero sector. In this study, information was obtained from three meteorological stations, from the year 2013 to 2021 and applying the modified rational method, the relationship of flow rates in relation to time was determined, a statistical adjustment was made using the Gumbel and Log - Pearson type III formulas to obtain the intensities; to verify the reliability of the data obtained using the formulas mentioned above, the formulas of the National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology (INAMHI) were used. The results obtained from the INAMHI intensities were suitable for modeling the 5 and 10 meter channel and reservoir using specialized software. It was concluded that the 10-meter dam is suitable for the project and therefore the pre-design plans for the dam were prepared.
