OBJECTIVES:
• To impart knowledge on hydrological cycle, spatial and temporal measurement and analysis of rainfall and their applications including flood routing and ground water hydrology.
UNIT I PRECIPITATION 9
Hydrologic cycle – Types of precipitation – Forms of precipitation – Measurement of Rainfall – Spatial measurement methods – Temporal measurement methods – Frequency analysis of point rainfall – Intensity, duration, frequency relationship – Probable maximum precipitation.
UNIT II ABSTRACTION FROM PRECIPITATION 9
Losses from precipitation – Evaporation process – Reservoir evaporation – Infiltration process –
Infiltration capacity – Measurement of infiltration – Infiltration indices – Effective rainfall.
UNIT III HYDROGRAPHS 9
Factors affecting Hydrograph – Baseflow separation – Unit hydrograph – Derivation of unit hydrograph – S curve hydrograph – Unit hydrograph of different deviations - Synthetic Unit Hydrograph
UNIT IV FLOODS AND FLOOD ROUTING 9
Flood frequency studies – Recurrence interval – Gumbel‟s method – Flood routing – Reservoir flood routing – Muskingum‟s Channel Routing – Flood control
UNIT V GROUND WATER HYDROLOGY 9
Types of aquifers – Darcy‟s law – Dupuit‟s assumptions – Confined Aquifer – Unconfined Aquifer – Recuperation test – Transmissibility – Specific capacity – Pumping test – Steady flow analysis only.
OUTCOMES:
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
• The students gain the knowledge needed on hydrologic cycle, hydrometeorology and formation of precipitation.
• The students are able to apply the various methods of field measurements and empirical formulae for estimating the various losses of precipitation, stream flow, flood and flood
routing.
• The students will know the basics of groundwater and hydraulics of subsurface flows.
