<br />and ground cover, and defines the shape of the runoff hydrograph
<br />for one inch of direct runoff over the area. For storms where
<br />the effective precipitation depth is different from the unit
<br />depth, the actual storm hydrograph is determined by multiplying
<br />the ordinates of the unit hydrograph by the effective precipita-
<br />tion depth and adding to obtain the final storm runoff hydrograph.
<br />
<br />To facilitate accuracy and standardization in developing input
<br />for the effective precipitation, unit hydrograph and storm hydro-
<br />graph operations of the model, a HYDRO data sheet was developed,
<br />as shown in Figure III-I. The input sheet provides tho basin
<br />name and number, which is used primarily for computer identifi-
<br />cation, and also the design point of interest. The section,
<br />township and range of the particular design point was also in-
<br />cluded to assist in the determination of the storm rainfall
<br />depths. Basin parameters were determined from the mapping
<br />available. These parameters included the area, channel length,
<br />channel length closest to the basin centroid and the average
<br />channel slope through the basin. In addition, flow times along
<br />the channel through the basin were computed using a predetermined
<br />design velocity. The degree and type of development within the
<br />basin was noted. When the type of development was quite irregular,
<br />the areas of different development were noted to assist in deter-
<br />mination of various basin characteristics. Basin or hydrological
<br />characteristics included the percentage of pervious and impervious
<br />areas, a constant infiltration rate in inches per hour, pervious
<br />and impervious retention depths, the impervious loss percentage,
<br />and hydrograph time and peak coefficients reflecting the type
<br />~nd degr~e of development. At the bottom of the input sheet
<br />the storm rainfall depths were recorded for the 2, 10 and 100
<br />year frequencies and the 1 and 6 hour durations. These condi-
<br />tions encompassed the range of frequencies and duration of
<br />interest in the study. Additional comments concerning the basin

<br />The storm hydrograph coefficients, cp and Ct, which reflect the basin
<br />slope and degree of perviousness or imperviousness, and degree of
<br />sewered area, are b~sed on the valucG recommended in the Urban
<br />Storm Drainaqe Criteria Manual.
<br />
<br />An additional variable in the computation of the unit hydrograph
<br />within the HYDRO model is the unit hydrograph width relationships
<br />at the 50% and 75% peak flow points. For the Sanderson and Weir
<br />studies the most recent width relationship developed by the Urban
<br />Drainaqe and Flood Control District wer.. uS8d which r",rlect
<br />characteristic widths of unit hydrographs in developed urban
<br />areas.
