Rainfall Runoff Modelling

This document summarizes a seminar presentation on rainfall-runoff modeling. It discusses different types of runoff including direct runoff and baseflow. It also covers rainfall-runoff modeling concepts and methods like the rational formula, unit hydrograph method, and the rainfall-runoff modeling process. The document presents different types of rainfall-runoff models and applications of models. It includes a case study on distributed rainfall-runoff modeling of the Ranganadi river basin in North-eastern India using HEC-HMS software. The case study compares lumped and distributed modeling approaches and evaluates model performance using graphical indicators.

Runoff

TYPES OF RUNOFF

Total streamflow hydrographs are usually conceptualized as being composed of:

Direct Runoff, which is composed of contributions from surface runoff and quick interflow.
Baseflow, which is composed of contributions from delayed interflow and groundwater runoff.

RATIONAL FORMULA

Qp = CIA
where, Qp = peak discharge (m3/s); C = coefficient of runnoff I = rainfall intensity (mm/hr) A = drainage area (km2)

Note: i = average intensity of rainfall corresponding to the duration of time-to-concentration.

UNIT HYDROGRAPH METHOD

Hydrograph of direct runoff resulting from one unit of effective rainfall which is uniformly distributed over the basin at a uniform rate during the specified period of time The unit duration may be 1 hour, 2 hour, 3 hours

UNIT HYDROGRAPHS

1.

2.

2 key assumptions for the development. Linearity - Given a UHG, a hydrograph for a runoff depth other than unity can be obtained by multiplying the UHG ordinates by the indicated runoff depth. Therefore, the time base of the hydrograph is the same as the time base of the UHG. Superposition - summation of corresponding hydrograph or UHG ordinates

RAINFALL RUNOFF MODELS

Definition Classification of rainfall-runoff models

1) Event and Continuous Simulation Models, 2) Conceptual and Hydrodynamic Models, 3) Lumped and Distributed Parameter Models, and 4) Models with Fitted, Physically Determined, or Empirically Derived Parameters. 5) Channel flow routing models

APPLICATION OF RAINFALL-RUNOFF MODELS

Frequency analysis,
Continuous modelling with historical precipitation, and Design storm modelling

THE ROLE OF REMOTE SENSING (RS) AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS) IN RAINFALL RUNOFF MODELLING
Remote sensing and GIS technology can be used to overcome the problem of conventional method for estimating runoff caused due to rainfall. The ability to generate information in spatial and temporal domain, which is very crucial for successful model analysis, prediction and validation

CASE STUDY - DISTRIBUTED RAINFALL RUNOFF MODELING

Spatially distributed catchment characteristics have been obtained from the 90 m resolution SRTM digital elevation data A lump model is developed using average rainfall of the catchment An inverse model is formulated and solved for estimating the curve numbers for the lump and distributed models.

CASE STUDY - DISTRIBUTED RAINFALL RUNOFF MODELING

The data used in this study were

(a) daily rainfall data of the five raingage stations (Yazali, Pingrove, Did, Mangio, and Peprong.) for the 3-year period (2006-2008)
(b) daily discharge data of the watershed at main outlet for the 3- year period (2006- 2008)

(c) digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the Ranganadi River basin was acquired from the SRTM Site.

CONCLUSIONS OF CASE STUDY


HEC-HMS Distributed approach simulated daily stream flow is better than the Lumped simulated stream flow Although there is a reasonably good matching between observed and simulated stream flow hydrographs for both HEC-HMS Distributed and HEC-HMS Lumped modelling approach, the hydrographs do not match well for lean period of rainfall season.
