From dam safety point of view, timely thermal analysis is very important to prevent dam from cracking. Keep in view the importance of thermal analysis of dam from engineering point of view; two models were selected to complete this comparative study. Different authors already had done studies regarding thermal analysis of dams. Different methodologies and parameters were used for thermal analysis in these models. In this article, comparison of improved HST and CWSM for thermal analysis of dam is done. This study proves that CWSM is better than improved HST model. Because of the incorporation of several sensors that may collect data from various places in an environment, dam body, sun elevation, water temperature and water pressure. So CWSM can produce measurements that are more precise.
