Ouenwa Dam

The Ouenwa Dam is a fictional dam that was the setting for Yuichi Shimpo's suspense novel "Whiteout," which was also made into a movie. It is supposed to be under the jurisdiction of the Nagami Power Station of the North Japan Electric Power Co. The model in the novel is Okutadami Dam (0500-Okutadami Dam), but Kurobe Dam (0848-Kurobe Dam) was used for the film location.

weir

A weir is a structure built across a river. Under the River Act, a dam is defined as a structure that is 15 meters or longer, while a weir is generally defined as a structure that is shorter than 15 meters. Sometimes it is simply called a weir. There are two types of weirs: fixed weirs, which have no moving parts, and movable weirs, which have moving parts to control the flow of water. In addition, there are wash weirs that allow water to overflow the top of the weir.

weir association

Weir-kai is a general term for a drinking party where dam maniacs have a drinking party. Dam mania term. It was (supposedly) proposed by Kamima in a chat or bulletin board (or maybe it was an e-mail) on Saki Miyajima's site (?). (or maybe it was an e-mail). The word "weir" can also be read as "en", so it was proposed as a combination of "banquet" and "weir party". There are variants such as "Oyankai" and "Daiyankai".

damming (e.g. a pond)

Weir-bun" is a dam enthusiast term for "iron-bun," a term that indicates the passion level of railroad fans, and was established before dawn on November 29, 2009. The name "weir" is derived from the fact that it can also be read as "en. Kamima had also proposed "bone fraction," but after a Twitter exchange with Masaki Hagiwara, it was decided to use "weir fraction. Kamima also thought it was "sekibun," but since it is also hung with "shio-bun" (salt), we would like to recommend this one.

orifice gate

An orifice gate is a discharge gate installed at a depth of less than 25 m below the full water level at any given time. It is mainly used to regulate the water level of the dam lake and the amount of water flowing downstream as flood control. It is sometimes used as a permanent flood discharge. Gates are often located near the middle or slightly above the middle of the embankment when viewed from downstream of the embankment.

arch dam

The shape of the dam allows the water pressure from the dam lake to be dispersed to the bedrock on both sides of the embankment, thus making the embankment itself thinner and reducing construction costs. However, this type of dam is only suitable for construction on bedrock that can support a considerable amount of water pressure.

earth dam

A dam is made by layering soil as the material. Because it is relatively easy to construct, it is not suitable for large dams, but for small dams built in reservoirs. Most dams in Japan are of this type, but the exact number is unknown, including those with crest heights of 15 m or less. Historically, the Sayama Pond Dam in Osaka Prefecture is the oldest dam of this type in Japan.
