Any of the above is possible

Solution
 Documents
Rainfall simulator type infiltrometers gives lower values than flooding type infiltrometers. This is due to effect of the rainfall impact and turbidity of the surface
(../studentpanel/page.php?

In a certain alluvial basin of 60 km2 area, 110 Mm3 of ground water was pumped out in a year. It was observed that the water table in that area was dropped
by 4 m. Total rainfall in that year was 1200 mm. The specific retention of soil if porosity of the soil is 40% will be _____. {Answer upto 2 decimal places}

Solution

Change in ground water storage = 110 × 106 – 60 × 106 × 1.2 = 38 × 106 m3

Sy × 60 × 106 × 4 = 38 × 106

Sy = 0.158

Specific retention, Sr = n – Sy

= 0.4 – 0.158

= 0.242

Q.7

A catchment has an area of 30 ha. Runoff depth generated from the catchment for rainfall of 20 mm and 40 mm are 10 mm and 12.5 mm respectively. The
-index for another catchment having the same rainfall equation and 30 mm precipitation in 1 hr will be _____ mm/hr. {Assume linear relation between rainfall
and runoff}.

Solution

Assume rainfall equation as

R = aP + b

For catchment 1,

10 = 20a + b... (1)

12.5 = 40a + b... (2)

By solving (1) and (2)

a = 0.125, b = 7.5 mm

For catchment 2,

Runoff depth, R2 = 0.125 × 30 + 7.5 = 11.25 mm

Q.8

An urban catchment of area 3.0 km2 consists of 52% of paved areas, 20% parks, 18% multi-unit residential area and the remaining land can be classified as
light industrial area. The catchment is essentially flat and has sandy soil. If the time of concentration is 50 minutes. The peak flow due to design storm of
depth 85 mm in 50 minutes will be _____ m3/s. {Take coefficient of run-off 0.85 for paved area, 0.075 for parks, 0.7 for residential areas and 0.65 for industrial
area}

Solution

Weighted coefficient of runoff, Cc = 0.85 × 0.52 + 0.075 × 0.2 + 0.7 × 0.18 + 0.65 × 0.1

Cc = 0.648

Assuming the initial infiltration rate of 10 mm/hr, final infiltration rate of 5 mm/hr and the horton constant value (describing the rate of decay of the difference
between the initial and final infiltration rates) as 0.95 h–1. The total infiltration depth for a storm lasting 6 hr will be _____ mm.

Solution

Horton’s equation :

f = fc + (fo – fc )e–kt

where f = infiltration capacity at time ‘t’

fc = final infiltration rate = 5 mm/hr

fo = initial infiltration rate = 10 mm/hr

k = 0.95 hr–1

then, f = 5 + (10 – 5)e–0.95t
