Q for pond design
Q for pond design
(OP)
What shall I use as criterion for sizing a pond for develpoment project?
1/Is it Q=CIA/360 (for metric)?
2/If yes, which I? 10min 60min, 120min 1440min?
3/ Or shall I use Rain Hydrograph?
I tried both and results are far apart (20/50%)Generally Rain Hydrograph gives much smaller quantities.
4/ Is the choice dependent of the development area size?
Thank you and have a nice day.

I was thinking of Q=CIA/360 and than multiplied by Tc time (say 10min*60s/min) (or may be 2hour with 2hour intensity )for the total quantity, but as I said, it comes far apart with Rain hydrograph.
