Guo, PhD, P.E., Profssor Cvl Engnrng, U. of Colorao at Dnvr, Jams.Guo@cunvr.u Inflcton pont on th rcsson hyrograph has bn rcognz as on of th mportant tm paramtrs whn analyzng th watrsh rspons to ranfall. Convntonally, th nflcton pont on a rcsson hyrograph s fn by th cay of flow rat (Ponc 989). hs papr prsnts a rvaton to locat th nflcton pont by th normalz flow rat on th knmatc wavr unt hyrograph (KWGH). PARAMEERS A INFLECION POIN Ovrlan flow prouc by a slopng mprvous plan unr a unform ranfall xcss s knmatc n natur. h watr flow pth can b scrb as: y () t whr y flow pth, ranfall xcss, an ttm. At t0, th slopng plan s assum to b ry or y(t0)0 vrywhr. Unr ths ry b conton, Eq s ntgrat as: y t () h knmatc wav assocat wth Eq s propagat at th wav sp as: x t V αy α t w (3) α k (4) S 0 whr x stanc along watrway or slopng plan, V w knmatc wav sp, k roughnss of watrway, S o plan slop along watrway, α coffcnt trmn by plan slop an roughnss, an xponnt on ratng curv.

Fgur Propagaton of Rcng Wav A rcsson hyrograph s fn by th varaton of ts curvatur. h pont of nflcton s locat whr th curvatur vanshs. Mathmatcally, such a locaton on th rcsson hyrograph can b trmn by sttng th scon rvatv of Eq qual to zro.

Substtutng Eq 7 nto Eq 6 yls Y Y ( ) () Y E whr Y mnsonlss flow pth at nflcton pont. As scuss n th orgnal papr, th ranfall uraton for th KWUH s st to b th tm of qulbrum. Wth, th valus of ths mnsonlss varabls at th nflcton pont s summarz n abl usng ffrnt formulas: CLOSURE Formula Q Y Mannng s 5/ Chzy s 3/ abl Valus of Dmnsonlss Varabls at Inflcton Pont. As ncat n abl, th rcsson lmb of th KWUH cays fastr usng Mannng s formula than that usng Chzy s formula. Convrsly, Mannng s formula gvs a longr rcsson hyrograph..
