Assignment # 4 (Deadline 09 February 2021) : Late Submission Will Not Be Entertained

This document provides instructions for Assignment #4 in hydrology, which is due on February 9th and will not accept late submissions. It includes 4 problems involving analyzing hydrograph data and deriving unit hydrographs. Problem 1 involves separating base flow from direct runoff using a hydrograph table. Problem 2 calculates a 6-hour unit hydrograph using base flow and hydrograph data. Problem 3 derives S-curve ordinates and 2-hour and 6-hour unit hydrographs from a given unit hydrograph table. Problem 4 derives a unit hydrograph using hydrograph data from a 3-hour rainfall event.

Assignment # 4

(Deadline 09 February 2021)


Late submission will not be entertained

Problem 1

Table shows the ordinates at 14 hour intervals for a hydrograph. Separate the base flow from the
direct runoff. Compute the volume of DRO.

Hydrograph Data

Time (days) Flow (m³/s) Time (days) Flow (m³/s)


1 2 8 3
2 28 9 2
3 20 10 2
4 11 11 2
5 7 12 1
6 5 13 1
7 3 14 1

Problem 2

The hydrograph tabulated below in Table resulted from a 6-hour period of rainfall. Considering
the base flow as 11 m³/s, find the 6-hour unit hydrograph for the basin having 148 sq. km
drainage area.

18 120
Problem 3

Given below in Table is the data for the unit hydrograph resulting from a 4-hours duration
rainfall, for a certain basin. Derive the S-curve ordinates. Hence derive the ordinates for unit
hydrographs of 2-hours and 6-hours durations.

Problem 4

Table shows the data for the hydrograph resulting from a 3-hours duration rainfall for a
catchment having area of 3,200 km². Derive the unit hydrograph.
