The ordinates of a 6h-UH of a watershed having a drainage area of 393 km^2 are given below. For a storm over the watershed having excess rainfall of 5 cm for the first six hours and 15 cm for the second six hours, compute the direct runoff hydrograph ordinates and plot the hydrograph. Compute the depth of direct runoff in cm. Assuming constant baseflow of 100 m^3/s, compute the storm hydrograph ordinates and plot the hydrograph. (List all the DRH ordinates in order, separated by a single space.)
(a) A flood drainage channel has to be designed to carry runoff from 200 km² area. If the flow per square kilometer is 0.5 m³/s/km², determine the flood drainage channel size using (i) the permissible velocity method, and (ii) tractive force method. The material size is 2 mm and S,=0.00002. Provide sufficient justification for assumptions and/or judgement used in your procedure. State clearly the design steps used in the design process. (b) The reservoir level upstream of a 30-m-wide spillway for a flow of 800 m³/s is at El. 250 m and downstream river level channel for this design flow is at El. 150 m. If the stilling basin width is the same as that of the spillway, compute the floor level of the stilling basin so that the jump is formed in the basin. Assume the losses in the spillway are negligible. What would be the basin invert level if one can use an end sill or one row of baffle blocks and an end sill?

The following table gives values of measured discharges at a stream gauging site in a year. Upstream of the gauging site, a weir built across the stream diverts 3.0 Mm³ and 0.50 Mm³ of water per month for irrigation and for use in an industry respectively. The return flows from the irrigation is estimated as 0.8 Mm³ and from the industry at 0.30 Mm³ reaching the stream upstream of the gauging site. Estimate the natural flow. If the catchment area is 180 km² and the average annual rainfall is 185 cm, determine the runoff-rainfall ratio.

You are designing a drainage system for a residential site in Atlanta using a 10-year return period. The site has an area of 1 ha, a flow length of 100 m, an average slop of 1%, a Manning's number of 0.25 and Type B soil. Drainage regulations require that the kinematic wave equation be used to calculate the time of concentration. You are allowed to use either the rational method or TR-55 to calculate the peak runoff rate. It is suggested you used a runoff coefficient of 0.4, which is typical for residential sites. What curve number would be required for both the rational method and the TR-55 method to provide the same peak runoff rate?
