| Summary: | Pekalongan is one of the areas located in the north of Java Island. The main problem in Pekalongan is tidal
flooding. This tidal flood worsens when there is a high discharge in the river. For this reason, the government built
a Coastal Dike and a Retention Pond to overcome these problems. The concept of this system is to create a coastal
dike that crosses the river to eliminate tidal effects. The retention pond is located along the coastal dike to
accommodate the discharge from the river, then the water will be pumped downstream of the river. This study aims
to obtain pump operating time for each pump built in this system to reduce the flood elevation of Q25 to – 0.5 m in
the retention pond. One dimensional flow modeling was used in the approach with the Hydrologic Engineering
Center-River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) 6.0 model. This research shows that the pump operating time for the
Silempeng and Sengkarang pumps is 150 hours. The addition of Mrican pumps and flap gates can reduce pump
operating time to support the success of Coastal Dike and Retention Ponds in controlling floods and tidal in
Pekalongan. |
