A storm with a duration of about 24 hours resultsin the following hydrograph at a gaging station on a river. The flow was 52 cubic meters per second (cms) before the rain began. The drainage area above the gaging station is 1,450 square kilometers. Use the observed hydrograph to develop a 24-hour rainfall duration unit hydrograph for this watershed.

Explanation:

Given data:

Gaged flow = 52 m^3 / sec

Depth covering drainage area = 1450 km^2

Develop a 24-hour rainfall duration unit hydrograph for the watershed using observed hydorgraph

Runoff flow = gaged flow - base flows

                   = 52 - 52 = 0 m^3/sec

For 18 hours time duration

Direct runoff volume ( Vr ) = ∑ ( QΔt1 )

where Δt = 6

           ∑Q = 3666 m^3/sec

hence Vr = Δt * ∑Q  = 79185600 m^3

Next we will convert the Direct runoff volume to its equivalent depth covering the drainage area

= Vr / drainage area depth

= 79185600 / 1450000000 = 5.46 cm

Next we will find the unit hydrograph flows by applying the relation below

where 14m^3/sec =

input value back to the above relation
