(ii) Topography of the watershed: - This include such factor a (a) Extent of the catchment area: - Bigger the catchment farea, greater would be the quantity of storm water. 0) Shape of be area: ~ Fan shaped areas drain away discharge more quickly than the oblong-shaped areas. {o) Slope of the area: - On a steeper slope, the rate of storm ‘water flow would be greater. (a)Nature of soil: - On a steeper slope, the rate of storm water flow would be greater. {c) Number of available ditches in the area: - If the number io large and the ditches are also large sized, part of the storm water may be retained or removed. Thus decreasing quantity fvailable for providing storm water drainage. (iii) Atmospheric temperature, wind and humidity: ~ Worm ‘emperature, high winds and greater humidity tends to reduce the storm water flow. Q.8 (a) How the storm water quantity is estimated? ‘Ans. The quantity of storm water may be calculated by using the following two methods. (i) The rational method and (ii) Empirical formulae method.

The velocity of flow is calculated by means of the hydraulic formulae. Q.13 What are self-cleansing, scouring and limiting velocities? Explain. Ans. Self-cleansing velocity :- The minimum velocity at which the sewer will kept itself clean over a wide variation in discharge is known as self-cleansing velocity. Self-cleansing velocity depends upon the size of the particles present in sewages and also on their specific gravity. Scouring velocity: - The minimum velocity to cause the scouring of the suspension of solids heavier than sewage or liquid is known as scouring velocity. ‘The self-cleansing velocity of the sewage depends ‘upon the scouring action of the flowing sewage. Limiting velocity: - The maximum permissible velocity which does not cause any wear of contact surface and not make the surface rough is known as limiting velocity. for self-cleansing velocity. Self is necessary to cause scouring and Consider a layer of sediment of unit width and unit length and of eness t deposit invert of a sewer of gradient 8.
