(xi) Outflow ordinates are plotted so as to obtain the outflow hydrograph. The point
at which it crosses the inflow hydrograph gives the peak outflow rate. From this time,
the rate of outflow begins to fall due to decrease in the inflow rate.
(xii) The time lag between the two peaks is evaluated as to give the time lag.

Solution. The elevation storage curve and the elevation outflow curve are plotted
with the help of Tables 18.23 and 18.24, as shown in Fig. 18.20 and 18.21 respectively.
The hydrograph of the given flood is plotted in Fig. 18.22. Flood routing is carried out
by hit and trial method as shown in Table 18.25 and as explained earlier. This table is
otherwise self-explanatory.
