Question: You are given a post - development hydrograph for a design storm ( table on right ) , and are asked to route the hydrograph

You are given a post-development hydrograph for a design storm (table on right), and are asked to route the hydrograph through a 1.3-acre vertical-walled detention pond with a vertical riser pipe (figure below) that includes a circular orifice centered 0.5 ft above the bottom of the pond (C_(o)=0.6:}, diameter {:=1ft) and the top of the riser forms a weir/orifice 2 feet above the bottom of the pond (C_(w)=3.33,C_(o)=0.6:}, diameter =2.0ft ). Assume the pond is empty at the beginning of the storm event. Assume flow through the lower orifice is negligible for depths of less than 0.5 ft . For routing calculations, use Deltat=10min. For the SIV table, use DeltaH=0.25ft. Report the following:
a. A plot of outflow versus pond elevation (based on SIV table) for depths from zero to six feet. Also provide the beginning of your SIV table (up to a depth of 3 ft ).
b. A plot of the inflow and outflow hydrographs (on the same axes for up to 500 minutes). Also provide the beginning of your routing table (up to 50 minutes).
c. A plot of pond stage (depth) versus time.
d. The peak outflow rate and corresponding pond stage and volume.
