HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES ENGINEERING

 LPTC

3003

OBJECTIVES:
• To introduce the student to the concept of hydrological aspects of water availability and requirements and should be able to quantify, control and regulate the water resources.

UNIT I

PRECIPITATION AND ABSTRACTIONS

10

Hydrological cycle- Meteorological measurements – Requirements, types and forms of precipitation - Rain gauges-Spatial analysis of rainfall data using Thiessen and Isohyetal methods- Interception - Evaporation. Horton‟s equation, pan evaporation measurements and evaporation suppression - Infiltration-Horton‟s equation - double ring infiltrometer, infiltration indices.

UNIT II

RUNOFF

8

Watershed, catchment and basin - Catchment characteristics - factors affecting runoff - Run off estimation using empirical - Strange‟s table and SCS methods – Stage discharge relationships- flow measurements- Hydrograph – Unit Hydrograph – IUH


UNIT III

FLOOD AND DROUGHT

9

Natural Disasters-Flood Estimation- Frequency analysis- Flood control- Definitions of droughts- Meteorological, hydrological and agricultural droughts- IMD method-NDVI analysis- Drought Prone Area Programme (DPAP)

UNIT IV

RESERVOIRS

8

Classification of reservoirs, General principles of design, site selection, spillways, elevation – area - capacity - storage estimation, sedimentation - life of reservoirs – rule curve

UNIT V

GROUNDWATER AND MANAGEMENT

10

Origin- Classification and types - properties of aquifers- governing equations – steady and unsteady flow - artificial recharge - RWH in rural and urban areas

TOTAL : 45 PERIODS

OUTCOMES: The students completing the course will have
• an understanding of the key drivers on water resources, hydrological processes and their integrated behaviour in catchments,
• ability to construct and apply a range of hydrological models to surface water and groundwater problems including Hydrograph, Flood/Drought management, artificial recharge
• ability to conduct Spatial analysis of rainfall data and design water storage reservoirs
