Flood routing is the process of determining the outflow hydrograph downstream based on the inflow hydrograph, essential for understanding flood wave movement through rivers or reservoirs. The document distinguishes between reservoir routing, which is simpler and widely used, and channel routing, which involves more complex calculations. The Modified Puls method is highlighted as a technique for reservoir flood routing, utilizing known inflow values and relationships between storage and outflow to compute hydrographs.

Method) (4 Marks)
Based on continuity equation:

In the Modified Puls method, we use known values
of inflow J, and relationships between storage S
and outflow O (from reservoir elevation—storage
and elevation—discharge curves) to compute the
outflow hydrograph step-by-step.
Conclusion:
Flood routing helps in predicting downstream

Reservoir routing is simpler and widely used for
