Estimation of runoff Empirical formulae
ESTIMATION OF RUNOFF & YIELD OF BASIN(1) • Englis • for ghat R= 0.85P-30.5 • for non Ghat areas R={P-17.8}*P/254 • R= Run off (cms), P= Precipitation(cms) • Khosla’formula • R= P-T/3.74 T= Temp F , R & P in cms • Barlow & Lacey • R= k P where k is constant depending on catchment and rainfall characters.
Rational Method Q= C* I * A Q = C I A Where: Q = peak flow (m3/hr) C = runoff coefficient (dimensionless) I = precipitation intensity (m/hr) A = effective drainage area (sq.m)
Rational method Example • A 4-hour rain of average of intensity of 1cm/hr falls over the catchment. Q= CIA • The time of concentration from the lines AA,BB,CC, and DD are 1,2,3,4 hours respectively to the site O. Where the discharge measurements are made. • Take value of C=0.7. Determine the discharge at site O.
