8.3 A small reservoir has the following storage elevation relationship. Elevation (m) Storage (10° m³) 55.00 58.00 60.00 61.00 62.00 63.00 250 650 1000 1250 1500 1800 A spillway provided with its crest at elevation 60.00 m has the discharge relationship Q=15 HP, where H=head of water over the spillway crest. When the reservoir elevation is at 58.00 m a flood as given below enters the reservoir. Route the flood and determine the maximum reservoir elevation, peak outflow and attenuation of the flood peak.
