206 Chapter 7 Infiltration
7.9 Tabulated below are total rainfall intensities during each hour of a frontal storm OVeFa drainage basin.
a. Plot the rainfall hyetograph (intensity versus time).
b. Determine the total storm precipitation amount in inches.
c. If the net storm rain is 2.00 in., determine the exact index (in./hr) for the drainage basin. (Note that by definition the area under the hyetograph above the index must be 2.00 in.)
d. Determine the area of the drainage basin (acres) if the net rain is 2.00 in. and the mea. sured volume of direct surface runoff is 2,015cfs-hr.
e. Using the index calculated in part c, determine the volume of direct surface runoff (acre-ft) that would result from the following:
\table[[Hour,1,2,3,4],[Intensity (in./hr),0.40,0.05,0.30,0.20]]
\table[[,Rainfall intensity (in./hr),Hour,Rainfall intensity (in./hr)],[Hour,Rat,0.15,],[1,0.41,13,0.23],[2,0.49,15,0.28],[3,0.22,16,0.26],[4,0.31,17,0.21],[5,0.22,18,0.09],[6,0.08,19,0.07],[7,0.07,20,0.06],[8,0.09,21,0.03],[9,0.08,22,0.02],[10,0.06,23,0.01],[11,0.11,24,0.01],[12,0.12,,]Use the first table
