Transcribed Image Text:Problem 1
The storage, elevation and outflow data of a reservoir are given below in Table 1. When the
spillway crest is at elevation 300.2 m, the following flood given in Table 2 was expected into
the reservoir. If the reservoir surface is at elevation 300.00 m at the commencement of the
inflow, route the flood to determine the
(a) the outflow hydrograph
