What is Routing in Civil Engineering?

In Hydrology, Routing is a technique used to predict the changes in the shape of a hydrograph as water moves through a river channel or a reservoir. If the water flow at a particular point, A, in a stream is measured over time with a flow gauge, this information can be used to create a hydrograph.

What is Muskingum Routing?

The Muskingum routing procedure is used for systems that have Storage - Discharge relationships that are hysteretic. That is, for systems for which the outflow is not a unique function of storage.

How to Calculate Outflow given Linear Storage?

Outflow given Linear Storage calculator uses Outflow Rate = Total Storage in Channel Reach/Constant K to calculate the Outflow Rate, The Outflow given Linear Storage formula is defined as the groundwater discharge to surface water bodies, evapotranspiration, pumping, spring flow, discharge through seepage faces along hillslopes, and any other water losses from the system. Outflow Rate is denoted by Q symbol.
