Description
Summary:This report provides the rough estimates of the actual coefficients of filtration, since some of the parameters of fissuring were assigned arbitrarily in the computations. The only method of predicting the permeability of the thawed state of the massif is calculating the filtration coefficient from the geometry of the fissures. This makes it possible incidently, to calculate the filtration coefficient of the massif in the frozen state. The granite foundation of the Kolyma Hydroelectric Power Station is broken up by fissures of considerable width suggesting that the rock is highly permeable.
