Final project by Ibrahim M.M. Aly focusing on pond and culvert design, water pollution study using computer models. Methods include HEC-1 and L-THIA NPS pollution modeling. Rainfall data and runoff calculations were used to determine volumes and discharge rates. The design features a spillway configuration with specified elevations and coefficients to manage peak flow and detention time. The project also includes culvert design using L-THIA NPS for annual runoff estimation. Contaminant amounts for various substances were analyzed in the watershed.

ABE 527 Computer Models in Environmental and Natural Resources Engineering Final Project Presented by Ibrahim M M Aly
Project Objectives:- Design of a retention pond for the Middle fork Wild cat Creek watershed, design of culvert and study of the water polution in that watershed. Methods :- * Using HEC_1 * Design of Culvert * L-THIA NPS pollution
CN(av) = 340910.80/4347.181 = 78.42 S = 1000/CN – 10 = 2.75 inch
http://danpatch.ecn.purdue.edu/~sprawl/Tools/Runoff/rain.htm Rainfall Depth The rainfall depth for Carroll County, Indiana, with a return period of 25 years and a duration of 2 hour is 2.84 inches. Data is from Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the Midwest, F.A. Huff and J.R. Angel, Midwestern Climate Center and the Illinois State Water Survey, Champaign, IL, 1992. Rainfall Depth The rainfall depth for Clinton County, Indiana, with a return period of 25 years and a duration of 2 hour is 2.99 inches. Data is from Rainfall Frequency Atlas of the Midwest, F.A. Huff and J.R. Angel, Midwestern Climate Center and the Illinois State Water Survey, Champaign, IL, 1992. The average Rainfall Depth (P) = (2.84+2.99)/2 = 2.915 inch The Runoff Depth (Q) = (P-.2*S)^2/(P+.8*S) = (2.915-.2*2.75)^2/(2.915+.8*2.75) = 1.0935 inch = 2.78 cm
Total Runoff Volume = 1.0935*2.54/100*4347*10000 = 1,207,400 cubic meters If we consider this volume will accumulate in 2 hours, Discharge Volume = 168 cubic meter/ second
Assume a pond of 15 acre area Area elevation 15 670 15 692 For the outlet we use Centerline elevation of 670 ft. Discharge coefficient = 0.6 Exponent = .5 Spillway configuration Crest Elevation = 690 ft Exponent = 1.5, Length = 20 ft, discharge coefficient = 4.03. I also used 6 pipes of 24”each for the outlet The pond peak flow is 811 cfs and the detention time is 11.20 hr That is reduced from 2400 cfs
Using L-THIA NPS for avg. annual estimation CN(avg.) = 78.2946 (78.42 previous calculation) Avg. annual runoff volume = 1,428,038 cubic meters Avg. annual runoff depth = 3.29 cm
