River Routing with HEC-1 and HEC-2

Abstract

This document describes how computer programs HEC-1 Flood Hydrograph Package and HEC-2 Water Surface Profiles can be used to model the flood-wave movement through a river. By analyzing the existing conditions and the proposed modifications for the river reach, the impact of the lost storage can be estimated. Keywords: Reservoirs/storage; Channels waterways; Channel flow; Flood plains; Hydrography; Water waves/routing; Rivers/water flow; Computer programs; Flooding/peak values.
