Daily Rainfall = 100mm.

All channels will be designed as rectangular


DRAINAGE CHANNEL DESIGN concrete channel (n=0.015) with B=2*h and design flow velocity of the
LECTURER : UMBORO LASMINTO channel is V= 1 m/s. Calculate for each channel (see figure below):

1. to (minute)
2. tf (minute)
3. tc (minute)
4. Rainfall Intensity (mm/hour)
5. Calculate Compound Runoff Coefficient
6. Discharge (m3/s)
7. Channel Dimension (channel width (B), depth (h), Slope (S))

300 m 100 m 50 m 400 m


A B

Compact
Asphalt Road, 2%

Housing, slope 1% soil, Park/grass, Slope 1.5%


400 m
Slope 1%

F D
E C
Asphalt Road, 2% 50 m
I H G

Example Calculation

Channel A-F
1. Calculate t0

To for Housing :
L= 300 m
S= 1 %
nd = 0.02
To = 1.44*(0.02*300/0.01^0.5)^0.467= 9.74 minute

To for compact soil :

L= 100 m
S= 1 %
nd = 0.1
To = 1.44*(0.1*100/0.01^0.5)^0.467= 12.37 minute

to left = 9.74 + 12.37 = 22.11 Minute

To for Asphalt Road :

L= 25 m
S= 2 %
nd = 0.02
To = 1.44*(0.02*25/0.02^0.5)^0.467= 2.60 minute

to right = = 2.60 Minute

to max is to left = 22.11 minute

2. Calculate tf

V= 1 m/s
L Chanel = 400 m
second
tf = L/V 400 = 6.67 minute

3. Calculate tc

tc = to + tf
tc = 22.11 + 6.66666667 = 28.78 minute

tc = 0.48 hour

4. Calculate Rainfall Intensity

R24 = 100 mm
tc = 0.48 hour

Intensity I = 100/24*(24/0.48(^(2/3) = 56.57532 mm/hour

5. Calculate C comp.

LAND USE C Area (M2)


Housing 0.7 120000
Compact soil 0.17 40000
Road 0.9 10000
170000

C = 0.7*120000/170000+0.17*40000/170000+0.9*10000/170000 = 0.59

6. Calculate Q

Q = 0.278 C I A

C= 0.59
I= 56.57532 mm/hour
A
= 0.17 km2

Q = 0.278*0.59*55.58*0.17
= 1.57 m3/s

7. Channel dimension

Q= 1.57 m3/s
V= 1 m/s

A = Q/V =1.57/1 = 1.57

if Channel B = 2 h
A = B*h = 2 h*h = 1.57 m2

Water depth h= 0.89 m

Channel width b=2h= 1.77 = 1.8 m

= 1.39
Channel Depth H = h + w = 0.89+ 0.5= m= 1.4 m

Channel Slope

Q= 1.57
n= 0.015
b= 1.8 m
h= 0.89 m

A = b*h= 1.60 m2
P = b+2h 3.58 m
R =A/P 0.45 m

S = (Q*n/(R^(2/3)*A))^2 = (1.57*0.015/(0.45^(2/3)*1.6))^2=
S=0.000631

PLEASE, TRY TO CONTINUE THE CALCULATION FOR OTHER CHANNEL.
