3(a). A catchment area has seven rain gauge stations. In a year the annual rainfall
recorded by the gauges are as follows:

Station A B c D E F G
Rainfall (cm) 141 101 115 182 108 87 98

For a 10% error in the estimation of the mean rainfall, deduce the optimum number of
additional stations required to be established in the catchment. (13)

3(b). A catchment area has seven rain gauge stations. Annual rainfall data of 2018 at
station E is missing. Annual rainfall data of 2018 and normal annual rainfall recorded by
the gauges are as follows. Compute the missing data. (12)

Station A B c D E F G

Normal rainfall (cm) 180 150 170 160 165 150 155

Part B
There are FOUR questions answer any THREE (30x3=90)

4(a). The following are the ordinates of the hydrograph of flow from a catchment area of
560 km2 due to a 4-hr rainfall. Deduce the ordinates of4-hr unit hydrograph for the basin.
Assume base flow to be uniform at 9 m3 /s. (15)

4(b). Two storms each of4-h duration and having rainfall excess values of2.4cm and
l .6cm respectively occur successively. The 1.6 cm ER rain follows the 2.4 cm rain.
The 4-h unit hydrograph for the catchment is given below. Calculate the resulting
DRH. (15)

5(b). The inflow hydro graph readings for a channel reach are given for which the
Muskingum coefficients of k=20 hour and x=0.25. Generate outflow hydrograph through
the reach and determine the attenuation and time lag of outflow. Outflow at the beginning
of the flood may be taken as the sam,e as inflow.
