Problem #4: (a) Compute the Unit Hydrograph for the Effective rainfall-direct runoff storm as summarized below. 1.00 pm Time (Hours) 10.00 am Effective Rainfall intensity (cm/hour) 10.00 Direct Runoff Rate (cm/hour) 0.0 11:00 am 0.0 10.00 0.0 (b) For a watershed comprising of 5220 hectares in area, the rainfall and runoff data are summarized below in the Table. The maximum runoff rate was recorded as 4.82 m/s at hour 9 on the second day. Compute (a) a 6-hr Unit Hydrograph, (b) a 12-hr unit hydrograph, and (c) a runoff hydrograph for the complex rain sequence as: 6-hr rainfall with rainfall intensity of 2 mm/hr, followed by 6-hr rainfall with rainfall intensity of 7 mm/hr, and the last 6-hr rainfall with rainfall intensity of 11 mm/hr. (d) Determine the maximum runoff rate for the complex rain storm described in part-c.
