-Time of Peak
Changing Unit Hydrograph Duration
-If we have a unit hydrograph obtained from a storm of duration T,
we can use the superposition principle to obtain a unit hydrograph
of duration equal to any integral multiple of T.
-The T-hour unit hydrographs are staggered by periods of T and the
simultaneously occurring ordinates are added to reproduce flood
hydrographs corresponding to n units of runoff from a storm
duration of nT hours.
-The ordinates of the hydrograph are divided by n to give the
ordinates of nT-hour unit hydrograph.
Changing Unit Hydrograph Duration
-If we require the unit hydrograph for a duration other than an
integral multiple of the given duration, we must resort to S-curve
hydrograph. This is the hydrograph of a storm runoff due to a
continuous uniform effective rainfall of unit intensity lasting
indefinitely
