Introduction Hydrological forecasting is important to
estimate and manage all event related to flood.
Flood forecasting is the use of real time precipitation and streamflow data in rainfall-runoff and streamflow routing models to forecast flow rates and water levels for periods ranging from a few hours to days ahead, depending on the size of the watershed or river basin.
Its can forecast the effects of urbanization on runoff from undeveloped watershed.
![Page 4: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Effects of Urbanization
The urbanization effects are increased total runoff volume and peak flow rates.
![Page 5: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The major changes in flow rates in urban watersheds are due to the followings;1. The volume of water available for runoff
increases because of the increased impervious cover provided by parking lots, streets and roofs cover which reduce the amount of the infiltration.
2. Changes in hydraulics efficiency associated with artificial channels, curbing, gutters and storm drainage collection systems increase the velocity of the flow and the magnitude of flood peaks.

Flood Control Structural Methods
– Flood Control Reservoir• Detention/Retention Pond• Dam
– Channel Modification & Environmental Impacts• Swales
– Diversion Channels, Levees & By Pass Channels– Increased Infiltration
• To increase the amount of previous area wherever possible
• Example; Porous parking lots through the use of concrete block or similar shapes laid such as water can infiltrate trough the soil-filled center.

Flood Control Structure •Placing control structures in a river system is a management technique used to mitigate flooding associated with periods of heavy rainfall. •While this approach helps to reduce flooding in urban and agricultural areas, flow patterns in the vicinity of a control structure can jeopardize its stability. •In the example to the right, local flow patterns have caused scour to occur in the channel used to convey flood flows.

Methods
There are several methods to estimate
flood or flow rate such as; Empirical Formula Rational Method Frequency Analysis
– Normal Distribution– Extreme Gumbel– Log Pearson Type III
![Page 13: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Empirical Formula
Q = CAn
Q = Flood discharge (m3/s)A = Area of catchment (km2)n = Index (0.5 – 1.25)C = Coefficient (wheather and catchment)
log Q = log C + n log Aneed many catchment

Rational MethodCalculate Peak Flow
Qp = CIA
Qp = the peak runoff rate
C = the runoff coefficient (assumed to dimensionless) I = The average rainfall intensity for a storm with a duration equal to a critical period
of the time tc
A = the size of the drainage area t
c = the time of concentration

Rational Method
Useful for small, usually urban, watersheds (<10acres, but DOT says <200acres)
Q = CIA (english) or Q = 0.0028CIA (metric)Q = runoff (ft3/sec) or (m3/sec)C = coefficient representing ratio or runoff to
rainfallI = intensity of rainfall (in/hour or mm/hour)A = drainage area (acres or hectares)

Average Recurrence Interval, ARI
(Design Event)● 2 ARI -- Design of intakes and spread of
water on pavement for primary highways and city streets
● 10 ARI -- Design of intakes and spread of water on pavement for freeways and interstate highways
● 50 ARI -- Design of subways (underpasses) and sag vertical curves where storm sewer pipe is the only outlet
● 100 ARI -- Major storm check on all projects

Time of Concentration (tc)
● Time for water to flow from hydraulically most distance point on the watershed to the point of interest
tc = to + td (MASMA)
to = time of overland flowtd = time of flow in drain
![Page 23: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Time of Concentration (tc)
Depends on:– Size and shape of drainage area– Type of surface– Slope of drainage area– Rainfall intensity– Whether flow is entirely overland or
whether some is channelized
![Page 24: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Rational Method using MASMA
One of the most frequently used urban hydrology methods in Malaysia (simplicity)
It gives satisfactory results for small catchment (up to 80 hectares)
Qy = C yIt A
360 Q
y= y year ARI peak flow (m3/s)
C = dimensionless runoff coefficient yI
t = y year ARI average rainfall intensity over time
of concentration, tc (mm/hr)
A = drainage area (ha)
![Page 25: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Assumption
1. The peak flow occurs when the entire catchment is contributing to the flow
2. The rainfall intensity is the same over the entire catchment area3. The rainfall intensity is uniform over a time
duration equal to the time of concentration, tc 4. The ARI of the computed peak flow is the same as that of the
rainfall intensity i.e. A 5 year ARI rainfall intensity will produce a 5 year ARI peak flow
![Page 26: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Not recommended
the catchment area is greater than 80 hectares
ponding of stormwater in the catchment might affect peak discharge
the design and operation of large (and hence more costly) drainage facilities is to be undertaken, particularly if they involve storage
![Page 27: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Procedure for Estimating Peak Flow using the Rational Method
1. Select design ARI
- select design ARI for both minor and major drainage systems
- Table 4.1 Design Storm ARIs for Urban Stormwater Systems
- ARI, Average Recurrences Interval (Return Period)
- the average length of time between events that have the same magnitude or volume and duration
2. Discretise sub catchment
- divide sub catchment into segments of homogeneous land use or surface slope
- determine the surface slope and land use of the catchment
![Page 28: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
3. Estimate time of concentration tc
- estimate overland flow
- estimate flow times for all other flow components within the sub catchments such as pipe, kerb gutter and channel etc
- tc =
the flow travel time from the most hydraulically
remote point in the contributing catchments area to the point under study
- Refer Design Chart 14.1

4. Determine average rainfall intensity,yIt
- calculate yIt for design ARI of y years and
duration t equal to the time of concentration,
from IDF data for area of interest
- Refer equation 13.1and 13.3, Table 13.A1and
13.3, Figure 13.3
5. Estimate runoff coefficients
- estimate C values for each segment if there are
different land covers
- Design Chart 14.3 and 14.4

Propose dimension
Q = AV
Most effective cross section From the Manning and Chezy equation, it is
clear that the conveyance of a channel increases as the hydraulic radius increases or as the wetted perimeter decreases.
Thus, from the viewpoint of hydraulics, there is among all channel cross sections of a specified geometric shape and area an optimum set of dimensions for that shape.
![Page 38: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Most effective cross section The one that will have the greatest
capacity for a given slope, area and roughness.
If these parameter constant, velocity will be greatest when the wetted perimeter is smallest.
The most efficient (effective) is the most economical.
Semicircular – smallest wetted perimeter
![Page 39: MASMA : Flood Flow Estimation](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061109/54516c42af795911308b4737/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Most effective cross section The most efficient cross section happened
when:– Flow rate (Q) is maximum– Slope (S) constant so hydraulics radius (R) is
maximum and wetted perimeter (P) is minimum
