(20%) Route the following inflow hydrograph using the linear reservoir 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 and K = 4 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, and X = 0.1.

6. How do kinematic, diffusion, and dynamic waves differ in their attenuation properties?
7. Why does the time-area method overestimate the flood peak?
8. Would you use the method of cascade of linear reservoirs in an ungaged basin? Explain.
