Abstract

Hourly rainfall is one of the most important hydrological variables. In hydrological engineering, we are often more interested in maximum 60 minutes rainfall rather than hourly rainfall recorded at an interval of one hour or 10 minutes. This paper describes the method to estimate maximum 60 minutes rainfall from hourly rainfall. Maximum 60 minutes rainfall is estimated by multiplying the bigger value of two consecutive hourly rainfalls recorded at an interval of one hour by 1.092, or the average of them by 1.587. Maximum 60 minutes rainfall is estimated by multiplying the bigger of two consecutive hourly rainfalls recorded at an interval of 10 minutes by 1.025, or the average ofthem by 1.102.
