The Pyschma ( Russian Пышма ) is a 603 km long right tributary of the Tura in Siberia ( Russia , Asia ).

The Pyschma rises about 290  m above sea level on the eastern flank of the Middle Urals near Verkhnyaya Pyschma , immediately north of Yekaterinburg . The river flows through the western part of the West Siberian lowlands , first on the territory of the Sverdlovsk Oblast , later the Tyumen Oblast and finally flows into the Tura at the village of Sosonowo , about 40 kilometers east of Tyumen (at an altitude of 46  m ). The river meanders strongly in the lower reaches . It is about 50 meters wide, three meters deep, and the flow velocity is 0.2 m / s.

The catchment area of the Pyschma covers 19,700 km². The mean monthly water flow is 34 m³ / s (maximum 1300 m³ / s, minimum 2 m³ / s). The most important tributaries are Kunara and Bolschaja Kalinowka from the right and the Reft from the left .

At Saretschny , the pyschma is dammed up to the Belojarskoye reservoir , which serves to supply the Belojarsk nuclear power plant with water .

The pyschma freezes from the first half of November to the second half of April.

The Trans-Siberian Railway roughly follows the course of the Pyschma between Yekaterinburg and Tyumen and crosses it twice (at 1944 and 2166 kilometers from Moscow ).
