The reservoirs are water management works that modify watercourses flow regime by retaining a part from their stock and sending it towards the downstream at lower flows. In this paper a front lake has been considered and its effect on the maximum flow in the riverbeds has been numerically simulated. Numerical simulation was performed using the NEPERM software. This software is based on the Saint-Venant equations, knowing that the water discharge from the reservoir is performed by a bottom discharge and a spillway. Boundary conditions of simulation were represented by tributary flood characteristics in the reservoir and wasteways operating characteristics. The results of the software are hydrographs of flows and levels in cross sections.
