Transcribed Image Text:A detention reservoir was found to have a linear storage discharge relationship, Q= KQ
(a) Show that the storage_routing equation of an inflow hydrograph through
this reservoir is Q, = C,I, +C,Q, where C, and C, are constants and I=(4, +1,)/
2. Determine the values of C, and C, in terms of K and the routing time step Ar.
(b) If K = 4.0 h and At = 2 h, route the following inflow hydrograph through this
reservoir. Assume the initial condition that at 1 = 0, 1, = Q, = 0.
