  1. TR-55Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds Tutorial Karl K. VisserHydraulic EngineerChampaign, IL

  2. Tutorial • Demonstrate Windows TR-55 • Create TR-55 Input File • Run TR-55 • View TR-55 Output TR-55 Tutorial

  3. Maximum Area 25 square miles Number of Watersheds 1-10 Tc for any sub-area 0.1 hour <Tc < 10 hours Number of reaches 0-10 Types of reaches Channel or Structure Reach Routing Muskingum-Cunge Structure Routing Storage-Indication Structure Types Pipe or Weir Structure Trial Sizes 1-3 Rainfall Depth Default or user-defined 0-50 inches (0-1,270 mm) TR-55 Capabilities & Limitations TR-55 Tutorial

  4. Rainfall Distributions NRCS Type I,IA,II,III, or user-defined Rainfall Duration 24-hour Dimensionless Unit Standard peak rate Hydrograph 484 or user-defined Antecedent Moisture Condition 2 (average) Capabilities & Limitations TR-55 Tutorial

  5. Minimum Data Requirements • Single sub-area run data • TR-55 Main Window: • Identification Data - User, State, and County • Dimensionless Unit Hydrograph • Rainfall Storm Data • Sub-area Data (Name, flows to reach/outlet, area, runoff curve number, & time of concentration) TR-55 Tutorial

  6. TR-55 Sub-area/Reach Concepts • Watershed - system of sub-areas and reaches. • Sub-areas - watersheds that generate hydrographs • Sub-areas-feed into the upstream end of a stream reach TR-55 Tutorial

  7. TR-55 Sub-area/Reach Concepts • Reaches - represent watershed stream flow paths • Reaches or Routing Elements - 2 types • Channel routing elements - Stream Reach • Storage routing elements - Reservoir/Structure Reach • “Outlet” -final reach(required for all watersheds) TR-55 Tutorial

  8. Sub-area 2 Reach 2 Outlet (ReachRouting) Reach 1(storage routing) Sub-area 3 Sub-area 1 Legend Storage Area Sub-Area Inflow Points Schematic Example TR-55 Tutorial

  9. Sub-area Data Sources • The sub-area data compiled prior to input into TR-55 include: • Drainage Area • Runoff Curve Number (RCN) Data • Time of Concentration (Tc) Data • Channel Reach Data • Structure Reach Data • Design Storm Amounts and Distribution NOTE: RCN and Tc may be directly entered on TR-55 Main Window TR-55 Tutorial

  10. Getting Started- Welcome to TR-55 Window • From Windows Explorer click on “WinTR-55.exe” • “Return to TR55” start TR-55 • “New User?” new user help • Skip welcome screen option TR-55 Tutorial

  11. TR-55 Main Window • Input basic project data • Menu • Buttons • Input boxes TR-55 Tutorial

  12. TR-55 Main Window-Help • Displays introduction • Help for the Main Window • System information • Program version number and date TR-55 Tutorial

  13. TR-55 Main Window • New project “File” “New” TR-55 Tutorial

  14. TR-55 Main Window • Set units • English or Metric • “Options” “Units” TR-55 Tutorial

  15. TR-55 Main Window • Save input file before: • Computing TR-55 results • Exiting the TR-55 program • File-Savesave with current file name • File-Save Assave with different name TR-55 Tutorial

  16. TR-55 Main Window-Data Entry • Input Project Identification Data (User, Project, etc.) • Choose area units • square mile or acres • square km or hectares • Select Dimensionless Unit Hydrograph • Input known project data in the “Sub-area Entry and Summary” portion of the window • Tc & RCN can be direct input TR-55 Tutorial

  17. TR-55 Main Window-Project Data • Project Data • Land Use Details • Time of Concentration • Structure Data • Reach Data • Project Data menu • Buttons • Double-click appropriate title blocks in grid TR-55 Tutorial

  18. Land Use Details Window • Find appropriate land use • right vertical scrollbar • select Land Use Category radio button • Enter area in correct hydrologic soil column • Maximum 15 land uses per subarea TR-55 Tutorial

  19. Land Use Details Window • Weighted CN • Accumulated sub-area area TR-55 Tutorial

  20. Land Use Summary • Convenient summary • Displays all Land Uses in current subarea • Summary toggle TR-55 Tutorial

  21. Custom Curve Number • If standard Cover Descriptions do not apply • Create a Custom CN to fit specific land cover • Pervious area curve number • % Impervious area • % Impervious area unconnected TR-55 Tutorial

  22. Time of Concentration Details Window • Enter sub-area flow path segment data • 5 flow segments: 1-sheet flow 2-shallow concentrated2-channel flow • Displays total flow path length • Displays average flow velocity TR-55 Tutorial

  23. Reach Data Window • Edit stream network • Specify channel reach or storage (structure) reach • Create channel reach rating table • Use another model (e.g. NRCS TR-20) when: • > 10 reaches • complex channel or storage routing TR-55 Tutorial

  24. Reach Data Window • Enter unique “Reach Name” (< 10 characters) • Enter downstream “Receiving Reach” • Channels - enter channel data • Structure - enter structure name, then double-click the Structure Name to display the Structure Data Window. TR-55 Tutorial

  25. Reach Data Window • Click “Plot” for graphical channel rating • Options for line width and color TR-55 Tutorial

  26. Reach Data Window • Click “Reach Flow Path” for schematic • Detail toggle All Details Overview TR-55 Tutorial

  27. Structure Data Window • Edit: structure namepond surface areaoutlet type (pipe or weir)outlet dimensions • Structure name correspond to Reach Window name • Up to three outlet sizes (trials) • More complex ratings--use another model (e.g.TR-20 or Sites) TR-55 Tutorial

  28. TR-55 Main Window-GlobalData • Storm Data-rainfall depths(how much did it rain?) • Custom Rainfall Distributions-(how was the rain distributed during the storm?) • Dimensionless Unit Hydrograph-(What shape is the hydrograph?) TR-55 Tutorial

  29. Storm Data Window • Choose NRCS-supplied rainfall depths and distributions for the US states and counties • Edit rainfall depths • Select design rainfall distribution • Click “Accept” • Changing State-County on Main Window doesn’t change Storm Data! • Set/edit Storm Data each run!
