(a) Explain 'design flood. Is this the same as 'maximum probable flood' ? (b) What are the methods of estimating maximum flood discharge? Give three formulae for maxi- mum flood estimation in India indicating for which part of the country they are applicable. (c) Find the value of the constants C and n in the empirical formula Q = CA"*, where Q is the flood discharge in cumec and A is the catchment area in km² from the following data: А (кm?): Q (ситес): 4 10 50 100 200 100 158 354 500 706 (Hint Plot Q vs. A on log-log paper; C = 50-intercept; n = 0.5 slope of straight line; Q = 50 JĀ)

A detention basin with dimensions of width, 20 m, length, 85 m and maximum height, 4 m, receives water from an inflow hydrograph of total volume 14000 m3. The volume of water in it when the water depth is 2.5 m is 4250 m3 O 14000 m3 (the value of the inflow hydrograph) 6800 m3, because the volume of the inflow hydrograph exceeds the maximum volume of the basin O 2550 m3 [= 85 x 20 x (4 - 2.5)]

Design a water treatment plant for a town with a 2020 population of 25000 persons, average population growth rate of 1.5% annually and average PCWC of 120 liters per day. The treatment plant will have a design life of 20 years and expected to start operation in 2024 and will be designed to treat 1.3 times the average water requirement. The source of water supply is a river and the water treatment plant must adequately remove very fine suspended solids and microorganspisms.
