EXTRAPOLATION OF RATING CURVE. WHY: GAUGING DOES NOT COVER FULL RANGE OF FLOW CALIBRATION AT HIGH FLOW IS DIFFICULT: OCCURS INFREQUENTLY SHORT DURATION AT HIGH STAGES A DIFFERENT CONTROL MAY EXIST (FLOODPLAIN, DIFFERENT ROUGHNESS) WHERE: EXTRAPOLATION AT STATE DATA PROCESSING CENTRE.

EXTRAPOLATION OF RATING CURVE • WHY: • GAUGING DOES NOT COVER FULL RANGE OF FLOW • CALIBRATION AT HIGH FLOW IS DIFFICULT: • OCCURS INFREQUENTLY • SHORT DURATION • AT HIGH STAGES A DIFFERENT CONTROL MAY EXIST (FLOODPLAIN, DIFFERENT ROUGHNESS) • WHERE: • EXTRAPOLATION AT STATE DATA PROCESSING CENTRE OHS - 1
HIGH FLOW EXTRAPOLATION • METHODS: • DOUBLE LOG PLOT METHOD • STAGE-AREA/STAGE-VELOCITY METHOD • THE MANNING’S EQUATION APPROACH • THE CONVEYANCE SLOPE METHOD OHS - 2
DOUBLE LOG PLOT METHOD • CONDITIONS: • HYDRAULIC AND GEOMETRIC CHARACTERISTICS DO NOT CHANGE BEYOND MEASURED RANGE • IMPLICATION: • POWER TYPE RATING CURVE FITTED TO THE LAST (HIGHEST) SEGMENT WILL BE CONSIDERED APPLICABLE TO EXTRAPOLATED RANGE AS WELL OHS - 3
X-SECTION KHAMGAON, 1997 OHS - 4
STAGE-AREA/STAGE-VELOCITY METHOD • USE: • TO EXTRAPOLATE RATING CURVE BEYOND MEASURED RANGE BASED ON: • MEASURED STAGE-X-SECTIONAL AREA RELATION • EXTRAPOLATED STAGE-VELOCITY PLOT • NOTE: • ASSUMPTION IS THAT STAGE-VELOCITY PLOT CAN EASILY BE EXTRAPOLATED SINCE RATE OF INCREASE OF VELOCITY AT HIGHER STAGES DIMINISHES RAPIDLY • FROM A HYDRAULIC POINT OF VIEW ASSUMPTION DOUBTFULL SINCE U::R^2/3 OHS - 6
