    How to create customized/personal defined rainfall event with 11 hours' precipitation

    Thank you, Peter. Now if I know the storm duration is 11 hours, and the total depth for these 11 hours is 1.29 inches. Do you think it is accurate to do it in the following way (as shown in the snapshot)? Or I have to use the "Sample F" rainfall file to define a rainfall distribution with...

    Hi Peter, Thank you for your reply and guidance. I just want to clarify the following sentence: "The duration will be set automatically based on your data." Does this mean I should leave the duration field blank, and HydroCAD will automatically set it to 11 hours based on the 11 "timeincr"...

    How to create customized/personal defined rainfall event with 11 hours' precipitation

    Thank you, Peter. Sample F is a 24-hour rainfall, but I want to simulate 11-hour rainfall, may I ask how does it work? Can I just change 24 to 11, like follows? name=Sample F 11-hr comment=Incremental rainfall w/arbitrary time step smoothing=false timeunits=hours depthunits=inches // The...

    How to create customized/personal defined rainfall event with 11 hours' precipitation

    Hi guys, I have precipitation depth for 11 hours and I want to use this storm data to create a rainfall event to do the analysis, does anyone know how to do that? I attached my HydroCAD model and the last thing to do is to create the rainfall event. Besides, what is the P2(2yr-24hr Rain) I...
