Course Learning Objectives
The course is designed to:
- appreciate the impact of urbanization on catchment hydrology
- understand the importance of short duration rainfall runoff data for urban hydrology studies.
- learn the techniques for peak flow estimation for storm water drainage system design.
- understand the concepts in design of various components of urban drainage systems.
- learn some of the best management practices in urban drainage.
- understand the concepts of preparation master urban drainage system.
Course Outcomes
At the end of the course the student will be able to
- develop intensity duration frequency curves for urban drainage systems.
- develop design storms to size the various components of drainage systems.
- apply best management practices to manage urban flooding.
- prepare master drainage plan for an urbanized area.
SYLLABUS
UNIT I : Introduction: Urbanisation and its effect on water cycle – urban hydrologic cycle – trends in urbanisation – Effect of urbanisation on hydrology.
UNIT II : Precipitation Analysis: Importance of short duration of rainfall and runoff data, methods of estimation of time of concentration for design of urban drainage systems, Intensity-Duration -Frequency (IDF)curves, design storms for urban drainage systems.
UNIT III : Approaches to urban drainage: Time of concentration, peak flow estimation approaches , rational method, NRCS curve number approach, runoff quantity and quality, wastewater and stormwater reuse , major and minor systems.
