Title: Study on the problems of long-term use of Three Gorges project
Abstract: This paper introduces the basic principles,influencing factors,research procedures and main research results of the long-term use of Three Gorges reservoir.This reservoir of river type has rich inflow and low sediment concentration upstream,with most of the incoming flow and sediment concentrating in the flood period.These features are beneficial to the long-term use.The operation policy of store clear and release muddy is effective in controlling sediment aggregationin the reservoir and in realizing the goal of long-term use when the aggregation and degradation balances while most of the original storage capacity remains effective.From now on the reservoir should be regulated in an optimal manner and the optimization must consider the operation of large-scale hydro powers locating upstream if full multiple uses and long-term use are insured.
