Flood route the given input hydrograph through a linear reservoir (S = KQ), given K = 2.5 hr and Δt = 1 hr. Solve one step beyond the peak outflow by developing a simple relation for computing outflow Q2, as a function of Q1, and inflows I1 and I2. Assume that storage and outflow are initially zero. Use the fact that S = K(xI + (1 − x)Q) and I − Q = ΔS/Δf. (Hint: Use the fact that the reservoir is linear to determine x).
