STREAMFLOW and
HYDROGRAPH ANALYSIS
Stream flow is one of the most important topics in engineering hydrology because it directly relate to water supply, flood control, reservoir design, navigation, irrigation, drainage, water quality, and others.

Stream Flow Measurements
• Serves as the basis for many water resources engineering designs
• Two approaches
– Measurement of water stage;
– Measurement of flow velocity
• Measurement of Water Stage
– Water stage: the elevation above some arbitrary datum of water surface at a station
– Types of Gages Measuring River Stage:
• Staff gage – vertical or inclined
• Suspended – weight gage
• Recording gage
• Crest – stage gage ( used to indicate high water mark)
• Misc (Table 1).

Stage-Discharge Relation
• Typical relationship: Q = a(H +b)c
• The function relationship between H & Q has to be calibrated locally for different stations

Storage Hysterisis
• In natural rivers, the H-Q relationship in general appears to be a loop, rather than single-valued.

Devices for Flow Velocity Measurement
• Current Meters
– Cups
– Propellers
V = a + bN
where V = flow velocity; a = starting velocity to overcome mechanical friction; b = equipment calibration constant; N = revolutions/sec.
• Pitot Tubes: Suitable only for clean water
• Floats: Suitable for straight channel, V = L/T

Hydraulic Structures for Discharge Measurement

Regime Theory
- W = aQb ; D = cQf ; V = kQm
Q = VWD ack = 1.0 subject to b+f+m = 1.0 Generally applicable up to mean annual discharge. For flows larger than the mean annual discharge, different relationships exist.

Extension of Rating Curve During the event of large flood, it is impossible or impractical to
measure discharge directly. More often than not, the flood stage goes beyond the range of the data range used to define the rating curve. Therefore, extrapolation of the ration curve is needed when water level is recorded below the lowest or above the highest level.
Large errors can result if the functional form of rating curve, Q = a(H+b)c, is extrapolated beyond the recorded gauge discharges without consideration of the cross-section geometry and controls
Graphical extension or by the fitted Q-H relationship is adequate only for small extension
For large extrapolation beyond the active channel cross-section, hydraulic formula can be used to estimate the stage-discharge relation.
