Question: ( a ) Convert the direct runoff hydrograph shown in Figure into a 2 hr UH . Note the duration of net rainfall is 2

(a) Convert the direct runoff hydrograph shown in Figure into a 2hr UH. Note the duration of net rainfall is 2 hrs. The total rainfall hyetograph is given in figure and the -index for the storm was 0.5 in/hr. The base flow in the channel was 100 cfs (constant). What are Tp and Tb for the storm.
(b) From the above 2HR UH, Derive 3HR UH by first identifying S-
Hydrograph.
(c) From the above S-Hydrograph, Derive 5HR UH.
(d) From the above 3HR UH and 5HR UH derive S-Hydrograph and check if they are the same as earlier S-Hydrograph.
(e) From the above 2HR UH, Derive 7 HR UH and 9HR UH
(f) Derive S-Hydrographs from K Hr UH (where K =2,3,5,7,9). Multiply each S-Hydrograph with correspoding K. What do you notice? Explain in simple words.It has 2 one hour Rainfall excess. So the
UH is UH for 2 hour duration. Total RFE depth is 2 inches. So
divide the Rainfall
excess is
