1 Engineering Hydrology Chapter 2 Precipitation

2 Adequacy of Rain gauge Stations N Cv 2 C P V m P 1 m Pi m 1 m 1 m 1 ( P i m 1 P) 2 N = optimal number of stations ε = allowable degree of error in the estimate of the mean rainfall Cv = coefficient of variation of the rainfall values at the existing m stations (in percent) m 1 = standard deviation, P = mean precipitation P i = precipitation magnitude in the i 4th station

3 Question_1 A catchment area has seven rain gauge stations. In a year the annual rainfall recorded by the gauge are as follows: Station P Q R S T U V Rainfall (cm) For a 5% error in the estimation of the mean rainfall, calculate the minimum number of additional stations required to be established in the catchment?

4 Question_1 Solution Station P Q R S T U V Rainfall (cm) o P= = cm o σ = o C v = 100 σ P m (Pi P) 2 1 m 1 = = (Pi ) = = 22.5 o N = ( C v ε )2 = ( ) 2 = 12 5 o 5 additional stations are required

6 Estimation of Missing Data

7 Estimation of Missing Data القراءات للمحطات بعد الخطأ : Pm P1, P2 القراءات للمحطات قبل الخطأ N1, N2.. Nm عدد المحطات بدون المحطة الخطأ : M قيمة المطر عند المحطة التي حدث فيها الخطأ : Nx قيمة المطر المفقودة عند المحطة التي حدث فيها الخطأ : Px % error = {(Nx Navg)/Nx} * 100%

8 Question_3 The normal annual precipitation of five rain gauge stations P,Q,R,S and T are respectively 125, 102, 76, 113 and 137 cm. During a particular storm the precipitation recorded by stations P,Q,R and S are 13.2, 9.2, 6.8 and 10.2 cm respectively. The instrument at station T was inoperative during that storm. Estimate the rainfall at station T during that storm?

9 Question_3 Solution Navg = ( ) / 5 = % error = {( )/137}*100% = 19.27% > 10% P x cm

10 Test for Consistency of Record

11 Test for Consistency of Record Solution steps (من الجديد للقديم ( of: 1. Arrange in reverse order the data 1. The annual rainfall of station X (P x ) 2. The average rainfall of the group of base stations (P avg ) 2. Calculate the accumulated precipitation of station X ( P x ) and the accumulated values of average of the selected base group ( P avg ). 3. Plot P x againest P avg for various consecutive time periods { Double mass curve } 4. Locate the break in the slope of the resulting plot (which is the change in precipitation regime of station X) 5. Correct the precipitation values at station X beyond the period of regime change by:
