Abstract
Abstract The quantitative and qualitative management of urban runoff is a very complicated, and the importance of it is added every day. Regardless of the economic and social impacts, water engineers always need to know how to respond to a city’s drainage system against different climatic conditions. In this research, the combination of ASSA and GIS models in the returns periods of 2, 5, 10, 50 years were used to determine the flooding points in the 9th district of Mashhad municipality. First, the watershed boundaries, canals and nodes maps was extracted from the GIS environment. Then, the ASSA model was simulated for a one hour design for a different return period; the outputs of the model were analyzed in the GIS software environment. The results showed that with increasing rainfall return period, 2806 nodes in underground and superficial networks of 114, 178 and 226 nodes were flooded and inundation during the return periods of 2, 5, 50, 10 years, respectively. Field surveys, existing elevation digital maps of the urban runoff network and simulations have shown that the main cause of inundation is the small size of the cross section of the duct, as well as the low slope in some parts of the network. Adaptation of the results of the simulation of rainfall-induced waterlogging in the study area with what happens every year confirms indicates the correctness of the simulations of the model. Moreover, simulation results of the model also showed that there is a good agreement between the simulated results and the measurement.
