    on Stage-Discharge relationship(Rating curve)


    1. Stage discharge data at site are given below. Find the stage (Ho)
    corresponding to zero discharge.
    i. Develop Rating Curve Equation for this river at the given site and
    check the adequacy of the equation by calculating R2.
    ii. Using the rating curve equation that you developed , find the
    discharge in the river when the stage is at: H= 29m and H=37m

    39.55 690
    Solution

    Step1. Draw Stage (H) Versus Discharge (Q) relationship on the Arithmetic paper.

    Assume the initial stage (Ho) at discharge equal to zero (Q=0m3/s).


    This can be done by extend the graph to y-axis at Q =0m3/s, take reading
    for initial stage (Ho) approximation.

    Thus, Ho = 24.6m at Q =0m3/s from rating curve below, Then proceed the
    work until R2 is nearest to 1.0(best global minima estimation).

    R2 should be found between0.6 to 1.0.

    Step2. Determine rating curve constant (n & C)

    The discharge through stream can be determined by


    stage-discharge relationship which given by rating curve
    equation, Q = C(H Ho)n
    So, that Rating constant (C and n) should be determined using linear
    regression methods. The result would be analyzed in tabular form
    below.

    Recap the result: Number of sample data: N=12

    X = 10.046 (X)2 = 100.917 X2 = 9.758

    Y = 26.485 (y)2 = 701.433 y2 = 63.257 X Y = 24.692

    Computation of (n)
    ...
    n= = = .
    ( )^ ..

    Computation of (C)
    ...
    b= = = .

    Now, from relation of linear regression, b = logC

    b = 0.642 = logC , C = antilog(0.642) = 4.385

    Therefore, rating constant to develop Rating curve equation are:

    n =1.87 and C = 4.385.

    Check for adequacy of the rating equation by computing correlation


    coefficient (R2)
    ...
    = =
    [ ( )^][ ( )^] [..[..]

    .
    R2 = =0.99049 >0.6 or 99.049% which is more nearest to 1 or 100%.
    .
    Therefore, good correlation and the linear relationship is appropriate for the
    above data. So, the rating curve equation developed so preferable.

    Step3. Summary:

    i. Stage corresponding to zero discharge. Ho = 24.6m


    Rating constant: n = 1.87 and C = 4.385, check for R2 = 0.99045
    Rating curve equation: Q = 4.385(H-24.6)1.87
    ii. Discharge at H= 29m, Q = 4.385*(29 -24.6)1.87 = 70.021m3/s
    Discharge at H=37m, Q= 4.385*(37-24.6)1.87 = 486.036m3/s

    river is given as V=0.62N+0.032 m/s, where N is the rev/sec. The depth of
    flow is measured above the river bed and the velocity is measured at the mid
    of the sections.Use mid section method
