HEC-RAS Model,
This is not strictly a HEC-RAS question. I am investigated a dam watershed (1.6 square mile) for 100-Year 24-hour and 100-Year 48-hour rainfall duration and ½ PMP Storms.
While I am getting a peak discharge of the 100-Year 24 hour to be less than the ½ PMF peak discharge.
The peak discharge for the 100-Year 48 hour is greater than the ½ PMF peak discharge. I cannot explain it. I expected the ½ PMF peak discharge to be always greater than the 100-Year rainfall event.
Any of you have seen that before? Any explanation?
Thanks,
Kinagoto

This is not strictly a HEC-RAS question. I am investigated a dam watershed =
(1.6 square mile) for 100-Year 24-hour and 100-Year 48-hour rainfall durati=

be always greater than the 100-Year rainfall event.Any of you have seen that before? Any explanation?
Thanks,

e 6-hr local-storm PMF will always be more critical than the 24- or 72-hr g=
eneral storm PMF.If I had to guess, it seems like you are pro=
bably applying the 1/2 24-hr general storm PMP to the watershed. Sugg=
est calculating the 6-hr local storm PMP, applying it to the watershed to o=
btain the local storm PMF, and then multiplying
the ordinates of the hydrograph by 0.5.The only remaining question is the 100-yr 48=
-hr being larger than the 24-hr. Normally the 24-hr rainfall would be=
nested within the 48-hr distribution and in that case given the much short=
er time of concentration for the watershed
– they should yield essentially the same peak runoff.Mike Johnson, PhD, PEGet Outlook for iOS

Subject: 100-Year 48 hour peak discharge is greater than the =BD PMF=
peak discharge?HEC-RAS Model,This is not strictly a HEC-RAS question. I am investigated a dam watershed =
(1.6 square mile) for 100-Year 24-hour and 100-Year 48-hour rainfall durati=
on and =BD PMP Storms.While I am getting a peak discharge of the 100-Year 24 hour to be les=
s than the =BD PMF peak discharge.The peak discharge for the 100-Year 48 hour is greater than the =BD P=
MF peak discharge. I cannot explain it. I expected the =BD PMF peak dischar=
ge to be always greater than the 100-Year rainfall event.Any of you have seen that before? Any explanation?
Thanks,

Thank you very much for your comments.
Here is more information on my model.
– 100-Year 24 Hour Rainfall (inches) = 8.3
– 100-Year 48 Hour Rainfall (inches) = 9.7
– PMP 24 Hour Storm (inches) = 33.1
– PMP 48 Hour Storm (inches) = 36.5
– PMP 72 Hour Storm (inches) = 38.3Following are the options used to determine the ½ PMF from the full PMF:
– Ratio Method : Discharge
– Apply to Subbasins : Yes
– Apply to Source : No
– Ratio : 0.5Here are the summary results:
Peak Peak Peak Peak Water Depth * Freeboard
Inflow Discharge Storage Elevation Above Top of Dam
