Click the plus signs to the left of the Simulation Runs menus and select Global Summary for the run completed in Step View the summary table of results for the watershed. 4. Select Sink I. 5. Select Graph to view the discharge for the watershed and compare the curve of the computation to the curve of the measured discharge data. Note that the curve of the Sink I Result: Outflow peaks slightly earlier and at a greater value than the measured outflow data. Calibration of the Muskingum variables can be performed to more closely replicate the actual watershed in the model. 25
26 18. Calibrate Model Using trial-and-error, slightly revise the values for X and K (reaches) and curve number (subbasins) within reasonable margins. In general: As X increases, As K increases, As curve number increases, While it is unlikely that the curve for Sink I Outflow will exactly match the measured discharge curve, the curves should be made as close as possible. The sample to the right was achieved by slightly decreasing X values and slightly increasing K values. 26
27 Part 2: Use an SCS Type 2 design storm to design for a peak flow representing a 100 year design storm for 24 hours. 19. Supporting Data SCS Type 2 Design Storm The next objective is to simulate the effect of a 100-year design storm on the Basin. The reference IDF graph is shown to the right. 27
