UNIT HYDROGRAPHS – A COMPARATIVE STUDY1

ABSTRACT. Unit hydrographs derived by using two methods, linear programming and least squares, are compared. Test data comprise rainfall and runoff information from four storms over the North Branch Potomac River near Cumberland, Maryland. The mathematical bases of these methods for unit-hydrograph derivation are explained. The linear programming method minimizes the sum of absolute deviations, and the least squares method minimizes the sum of the squares of deviations. Computer subroutines are readily available for application of these methods. The unit hydrographs derived with the two methods are practically the same for storms 2 and 3, but differ somewhat for storms 1 and 4. However, the reconstituted direct surface runoff hydrographs are similar to those observed with the exception of the hydrograph for storm 4 which had a relatively more non-uniform rainfall excess of a considerably larger duration.     

DECLINING POTENTIOMETRIC LEVELS IN FORT WALTON BEACH AREA,FLORIDA1

ABSTRACT: The Fort Walton Beach area is presently faced with an excessive drawdown of the potentiometric level in the upper Floridan aquifer. Based on available data, the potentiometric level in the Floridan aquifer has dropped 162 feet since 1936. This declining potentiometric level can lead to problems and possible loss of the natural resource on a long-term basis. However, if corrective measures or programs for proper management of groundwater resources are undertaken at this time, the potential problems may be averted.     

Fitting a Gamma Distribution Over a Synthetic Unit Hydrograph1

ABSTRACT: Several methods for synthetic unit hydrographs are available in the literature. Most of these methods involve the hand fitting of a curve over a set of a few hydrograph points, which can sometimes be a subjective task. Besides, the user often finds it difficult or simply neglects to adjust the generated unit graph to a runoff volume of one unit (inch, cm, or mm). It is the purpose of this paper to present to the design hydrologist a simple method to fit a smooth gamma distribution over a single point specified by the unit hydrograph peak and the time to peak with a guaranteed unit depth of runoff.

泄漏检测与维修技术在芳烃抽提装置的应用研究

采用泄漏检测与维修（ LDAR）技术进行了全面检测和统计分析，分析泄漏的原因并通过维修减少泄漏。结果表明：芳烃抽提装置容易泄漏的元件主要为连接件和阀门，主要分布在泵区；SV≥5000μmol／mol的泄漏密封点占总密封点数的0.57％，对总泄漏量的贡献达到了82％，是造成泄漏排放的主要部分。设备管阀件泄漏造成的加工损失率为0.0009％，泄漏点停工维修修复率为83％，停工维修后整体泄漏率为0.03％；VOCs减排率为71％。     

极端梯度提升与随机森林融合的天然气露点预测方法

目的 解决目前水露点数据多为人工采用测量仪器测得,时效性低且成本高昂的问题。方法 建立一种基于极端梯度提升(XGBoost)和随机森林(RF)的天然气水露点预测方法。采用XGBoost方法对所有监测工艺参数进行分析,筛选出主要影响水露点的关键工艺特征参数,以排除无关特征参数对预测的干扰。建立RF预测模型,输入关键特征集参数,实现对水露点的实时预测。以重庆气矿某脱水监测系统监测数据与生产数据为例,对所提预测方法进行对比分析验证。结果 相较于XGBoost、SVM等预测方法,RF模型具有最佳的预测性能,且经过XGBoost特征选择后,RF预测结果的MAE值降低了0.016 9 ℃,RMSE值降低了0.014 6 ℃。结论 基于极端梯度提升与随机森林融合的水露点预测方法具有更优的预测精度与鲁棒性,对指导脱水现场生产具有积极作用。
