Question
PROBLEM #3 ONLY!!!
Problem 1: A storm drain system is shown in Figure P16.11. For the flow conditions indicated, determine the time of concentration from Point A to Point C using the Kirpich, Kerby, Bransby-Williams, and Federal Aviation Administration Methods.
Problem 2: Using the Kirpich time of concentration you calculated in Problem 1 and assuming the watershed is located in Seattle, WA, determine the intensity for the 50-year storm.
Problem 3: For the watershed in Problems 1 and 2, determine the peak flowrate(in ft3/s )for the 50-year storm event at Point Cusing the Rational Method.

- Can you help me solve this homework problemarrow_forwardWATER RESOURCES ENGINEERING A 6-hour storm event occured in the study basin. You were able to measure precipitiation and infiltration data, but not streamflow. Using the precipitation and and infiltration data and the unit hydrograph, estimate the total streamflow during and after this storm event. Calculate stream flow for each time step until the total streamflow is equal to the baseflow of 35 m3/s. Please refer to attached images of data tables:arrow_forward3. A 55.0 ML/d wastewater treatment plant discharges to a river system with a maximum spring flow of 149.5 m3/min and a minimum summer flow of 98.2 m3/min (upstream of the outfall from the plant). What total allowable BOD (mg/L) could be discharged by the plant if the BOD in the river after dilution must not exceed provincial standards, and there is already 1.1 mg/L of pollution in the river upstream?arrow_forward
- i need the answer quicklyarrow_forwardYou are responsible for calculating the peak discharge for a culvert design in a smallwatershed in Washington, DC. The watershed area is 4 acres and currently has 30 % of its area ofindustrial (heavy areas) and 70 % of residential (single –family areas). The design manual suggestsyou design your culvert for a 10 return period. The watershed has a concentration time of2 hours. Calculate:a) What is the design peak flow?b) What is the impact of the runoff coefficient (C) range on your design?c) After you implemented your project, the residential area was entirely converted toindustrial areas. Would that affect you design? If yes, by how much?arrow_forwardThe Orange County Water District (OCWD) requires that the flow velocity in a water pipe cannot exceed 7 ft/s. Given a discharge of 3200 GPM, which of the following pipes is the BEST option? O NPS 8, schedule 80 O NPS 6, schedule 60 O NPS 4, schedule 40 O NPS 10, schedule 100arrow_forward
