Abstract
In the case study reported herein 36 yr of stream flow records at a multireservoir system in Sri Lanka were analyzed statistically and 700 traces for each reservoir were generated stochastically and maximum releases for each month were determined knowing the reservoir capacities. Fitting an extreme value distribution to these releases, a reliability curve was obtained. These releases were then used to compute the hydroelectric power that can be generated from the reservoir system.
