online_dimensionless_uh_cascade:   Dimensionless unit hydrograph by the cascade of linear reservoirs 


Formulas

C = tr/K          C1 = C/(2+C)           C2 = (2-C)/(2+C)

Qj+1n+1 = 2C1(Qaverage)j + C2Qj+1n

Reference


INPUT DATA:

Basin area A (km2):     432         Unit hydrograph duration tr (hr):     3         Storage constant K (hr):     9         Number of reservoirs N:     2


SAMPLE OUTPUT:

Please check:  Relative volume under unit hydrograph (1 cm of runoff):  Vuh = 1.00000008.     The correct value is:  Vuh =  1.
