Is the Three Gorges Dam in China the largest dam in the world? Who is bigger than the dam of Dnieper Hydropower Station?

The Three Gorges Dam in China is the largest dam in the world, bigger than the Dnieper Hydropower Station.

The Three Gorges Project is located in Sandouping Town, Yichang City, Hubei Province, China, 38km away from the downstream Gezhouba Water Control Project, and it is the largest hydropower project in the world.

The Three Gorges Dam Project consists of the main powerhouse and diversion works, with a total length of about 3,335 m, crest elevation 185m, dam height 18 1m, normal water level 175m, dam length of 2,335 m and static investment1352.66 billion yuan.

The dam of Dniebohe Hydropower Station is a concrete overflow dam with a maximum height of 60m, a crest length of 760m and a non-overflow crest length of 251m.. The dam site is located in the plain valley, with low terrain and asymmetry on both sides, and the left bank is close to the hills.

Extended data:

The history of Three Gorges Dam is the highest;

1. The metal structure of the Three Gorges Project includes 386 gates of various types, 39 hoists of various types 139, and 26 penstocks for water diversion, with a total engineering quantity of 266,500 tons. Its comprehensive engineering quantity ranks first in the world.

2. The Three Gorges Hydropower Station has a total installed capacity of 65.438+0.82 million kilowatts and an average annual power generation of 84.68 billion kWh, making it the largest power station in the world.

3. The maximum flood discharge capacity of the spillway gate of the Three Gorges Project is 102500 m3/s, which is the largest flood discharge capacity in the world.

4、? The dynamic resettlement of Three Gorges Reservoir can eventually reach110.3 million people, which is the largest reservoir resettlement project in the world and the most difficult work.

5. In 2000, the concrete pouring volume of the Three Gorges Project was 54810.7 million cubic meters, and the monthly pouring volume was as high as 550,000 cubic meters, which set a world record for concrete pouring and was the most difficult water conservancy project in the world.
