Route the following inflow hydrograph through a linear reservoir using the
storage indication method:
Time (hr) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
Inflow (m3/s) 10 20 50 80 90 100 90 60 50 40 30 20 10
Assume baseflow is 10 m3/s, K= 4 hr, Delta t= 1 hr.

(20%) Given the following inflow hydrograph to a certain
stream channel reach, calculate the outflow by the Muskingum method.
Time (hr) 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30
33 36
Inflow (m3/s) 100 120 150 200 250 275 250 210 180 150 120 110 100
Assume baseflow is 100 m3/s, K= 2.4 hr, X= 0.1, and Delta t= 3 hr.

(20%) Use the Clark method to derive a 1-h unit hydrograph
for a catchment with the following time-area diagram:
Time (hr) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
Area (km2/s) 12 20 42 66 30 16
Use K= 2 hr, and Delta t= 1 hr.
