Use the Clark unit hydrograph procedure to compute and plot the 3-hr unit hydrograph for a watershed that has an area of 1,100 km^2 and a time of concentration of 5 hr. The Clark storage coefficient is estimated to be 4 hr. Use a 1-hr time interval for the computations and apply the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers synthetic time-area relationship. Extend the unit hydrograph to t = 25 hr to capture the recession limb.
A newly designed dam is to be modeled in the laboratory. The primary objective of thegeneral model study is to determine the adequacy of the spillway design and to observe the watervelocities, elevations and pressures at critical points of the structure. The reach of the river to bemodelled is 1500 m long, to width of the dam (also the maximum width of the reservoirupstream) is to be 300 m and the maximum flood discharge to be modeled is 5000 m3/s. If themaximum laboratory discharge is limited to 1.60 m3/s and the floor space available for the modelconstruction is 50 m long and 20 wide, determine the largest feasible scale ratio for such a study
An engineer makes careful measurements with a weir that monitors a rectangular unfinished concretechannel laid on a slope of 1°. She finds, perhaps with surprise,that when the water depth doubles from 2 ft 2 inchesto 4 ft 4 inches, the normal flow rate more than doubles,from 200 to 500 ft3/s. (a) Is this plausible? (b) If so, estimatethe channel width.
