A rectangular detention basin will be connected to outlet of the above drainage system to reduce the peak flow rate to 5m³/s. Determine the dimensions of the basin if the length of the basin is 3 times of the width. An orifice will be used as the outlet of the basin and the depth of water above the center of the orifice should be less than 2m. What is the size of the orifice?

Water flows from a large 4m detention basin (100m by 50m) along a 200mm diameter pipe for a distance of 100m at a slope of 1:200. The pipe centerline is 300mm above the base of the basin and it drains freely to a nearby channel. Calculate the steady flow rate if: (a) the flow is assumed ideal, (b) the pipe is considered smooth for the purposes of the Moody Diagram. (c) the pipe has a relative roughness of 0.006. (d)...

Consider a 2-acre detention basin with vertical walls. The triangular inflow hydrograph increases linearly from zero to a peak of 60 cfs at 60 min and then decreases linearly to a zero discharge at 180 min. Route the inflow hydrograph through the detention basin using the head discharge curve for the 5-ft pipe spillway in table below. The pipe is located at the bottom of the basin. Assuming the basin is initially empty, use the level pool routing procedure with...
