Hence, the study area covers some parts of catchments of Indrawati River in Sindhupalchowk; catchments of Rosi Khola and Sunkoshi River in Kavrepalanchowk; catchments of Marin Khola and Kamala River in Sindhuli; catchments of Khimti Khola, Likhu Khola and Tamakoshi River in Ramechhap; and catchments of Dholan Khola, Hardi Khola and Maraha Khola in Mahottari.

2. Climate

2.1 Climates of Nepal

Climate is the collected weather patterns of an area. The climate of Nepal differs drastically in different places and seasons, it has cosmopolitan climates. In general, Nepal has cold and dry winter, hot and dry summer, and heavy monsoon periods. Globally most of the regions have four seasons, however, Nepal has six, they are: Spring or Vasant (Mid-March to Mid-May), Summer or Grishma (Mid-May to Mid-July), Monsoon or Varsa (Mid-July to Mid-September), Autumn or Sharad (Mid-September to Mid-November), Hemant (Mid-November to Mid- January) and Shishir (Mid-January to Mid-March). Further, Nepal has mainly five types of climates which are determined based on altitude ranges (Fig. 1). The climates found in Nepal are as mentioned below.

Fig. 1 Climatic Types in Nepal

Tundra Climate: This climate is found in the Himalayan region which falls above 5000 m from the mean sea level (MSL). The temperature in winter is quite less than the freezing point, while in summer it is slightly less than the freezing point. No vegetation is found in this climate.

A8-1 Alpine Climate: This climate is prevailed in higher hilly region which falls in the range of 3300-5000 m from the MSL. The temperature in winter is less than the freezing point but in summer it ranges from 5-15 oC. Alpine forests are found in this climate.

Cool Temperate Climate: This climate is found in central hilly region between 2100-3300 m from the MSL. In winter, temperature is less than freezing point while in summer it ranges from 15-20 oC. Coniferous forests are found in this climate.

Warm Temperate Climate: This climate is found in lower hilly region and in the valley which ranges from 900-2100 m from MSL. In winter, temperature ranges from 0-18 oC while in summer it ranges from 17-30 oC. Deciduous forests are found in this climate.

Sub-Tropical Climate: This climate is found in the Mahabharat hills and terai which ranges below 900 m from the MSL. The temperature in winter ranges from 6-25 oC, while in summer it is 25-40 oC. Evergreen forests are found in this climate.

5. Isohyets of Design Daily Rainfalls of the Project Area

The isohyets of 50-year daily rainfall of the project area has been developed analyzing the frequency of the maximum annual daily rainfalls data of 21 stations located in and around the project area (Fig. 8). The isohyets show that two heavy rainfall pockets areas are prevailed in the project area. The first heavy rainfall pocket area is Hariharpur Gadhi which has 50-year daily rainfall of 475 mm. The second heavy rainfall pocket area is Sindhuli Gadhi which has 50-year daily rainfall of 423 mm (Table 11). Similarly, Pachuwarghat and Dolalghat are identified as the lowest rainfall pocket areas with 50-year daily rainfall of 124 mm and 134 mm, respectively. The developed isohyets of 50-year daily rainfall of the project area provide ideas on rainfall distributions in the basins of the rivers.

6. Frequency Analysis of Short Duration Rainfall

The short duration rainfall depths are necessary for peak discharge estimation in rivers. For this purpose, the design short duration rainfall depths of Airport station are used as reference. Frequency analysis of short duration rainfall depths at Kathmandu Airport station were carried out during the study of the Section II of Sindhuli Road. The frequency analyses of short duration rainfall depths of 10-min and 60-min and 24-hour rainfall of Kathmandu Airport cited in the report is presented in Table 12.

Using the ratios of short duration rainfalls to 24-hour rainfall (It/I24-hour) of Kathmandu Airport, short duration rainfall depths (it) are estimated from 24-hour rainfall (i24-hour) of Sindhuli Gadhi.

⎛ I ⎞ ⎜ t ⎟ (2) it = i24−hour .⎜ ⎟ ⎝ I 24−hour ⎠

Where,

it = Rainfall amount of ‘t’ duration at Sindhuli Gadhi (mm)

i24-hour = 24-hour rainfall amount at Sindhuli Gadhi (mm)

It = Rainfall amount of ‘t’ duration at Kathmandu Airport (mm)

I24-hour = 24-hour rainfall amount at Kathmandu Airport (mm)

Short duration rainfall depths of various return period levels of Sindhuli Gadhi station are estimated using the above equation. Based on the estimated short duration rainfalls of various return period levels, the IDF-Curves of Sindhuli Gadhi are developed. The relation used for developing the IDF-Curve is as presented below.

a I = (3) (t n + b)

Where,

I = Rainfall intensity (mm/hr) t = Duration (minute)

a,b,n = Constants

7. Estimation of Peak Discharge in the Rivers

The peak discharges in the rivers are estimated using Rational method. For this, at first, time of concentration of flow in rivers and then basin rainfall intensities are determined.

7.1 Time of Concentration of Flow

The time of concentration flow (equivalent to duration of design rainfall) is determined considering overland flow travel time and channel flow travel time of runoff.

Overland flow travel time:

The overland flow travel time of runoff is estimated using Kerby’s equation. The retardance coefficients for different ground cover are presented in Table 16.

0.467 ⎛ n.L ⎞ T1 = 1.445× ⎜ ⎟ (4) ⎝ S 0.5 ⎠

Where,

T1 = Overland flow time (minutes) n = Kerby’s coefficient of roughness

L = Overland flow length (m)

S = Slope of ground surface

Table 16 Kerby’s Retardance Coefficient

Ground Cover Kerby’s retardance coefficient (n)

A8-14 Timberland with deep forest litter or dense grass 0.8 Deciduous timberland 0.6 Pasture or average grass 0.4 Poor grass, cultivated row crops of moderately rough bare soil 0.2 Smooth, packed bare soil 0.1 Smooth, impervious surface 0.02

Channel flow travel time:

After concentrating the runoff from the overland, runoff starts to flow in the channel. The channel flow travel time of runoff is estimated by given relation.

L T = (5) 2 60×V

Where,

T2 = Channel flow time (minutes) L = Stream length (m) V = Flow velocity (m/s)

Time of concentration:

Finally, the time of concentration of runoff is estimated with summing up the overland flow travel time and channel flow travel time of the runoff.

T = T1 + T2 (6)

Where,

T = Time of concentration (minutes)

T1 = Overland flow time (minutes)

T2 = Channel flow time (minutes)

7.2 Determination of Basin Rainfall Intensity of T-min Duration

The proximity analysis of the stations to the catchment area of a particular river is performed. Based on the percentage of basin area coverage by stations weight factors (W) are fixed for the stations. Further, rainfall intensities (I) of the stations for T-min (time of concentration) duration are determined based on the relation and constants of the IDF Curve. Basin rainfall intensities are determined from the points (stations) rainfall intensities. Using the weight factors and rainfall intensities of T-min duration of stations, the basin rainfall intensity of T-min duration is determined as shown below. The estimated basin rainfall intensities are presented in Table 17.

A8-15 n I B = ∑ I i ⋅Wi (7) i=1

Where,

IB = Basin rainfall intensity of T-min duration (mm/hr)

th Ii = Rainfall intensity of i station of T-min duration (mm/hr)

th Wi = Weight factor for i station i = Index of station

n = Total number of stations considered

7.3 Determining Peak Discharges by Rational Method

The peak discharges of the rivers are estimated using Rational method. Basin area, basin rainfall intensity of T-min duration (equivalent to time of concentration of runoff) and runoff coefficient are used for estimating the peak discharges in the rivers. The relation used for peak discharges estimation in the rivers is as presented below. The estimated design discharges of rivers are presented in Table 18.

C ⋅ I ⋅ A Q = B (8) P 3.6

Where,

3 QP = Peak discharge of the river (m /s)

IB = Basin rainfall intensity of T-min duration (mm/hr) A = Basin area (km2) C = Runoff coefficient

Consideration of Runoff Coefficient:

Road Earthworks and Drainage Design Guideline of Japan Road Association recommends the values of Runoff Coefficient (C) as 0.8 for designing of cross drains and 0.4 for designing of side ditches along the roads for steep mountainous areas considering the importance of structures.

A8-18 8. Hydraulic Model

8.1 River Flow Simulation Model

The HEC-RAS, developed by Hydrologic Engineering Center, US Army Corps of Engineers, is a professional engineering software package for simulating flows in rivers. The HEC-RAS is a fully dynamic, one-dimensional modelling tool for the detailed analysis, design and management of both simple and complex river systems. The unsteady flow simulation module of HEC-RAS solves the Saint Venant equations for conservation of continuity and momentum. Therefore, one- dimensional river flows and water levels are generated using fully dynamic flow routing procedure. The continuity equation of conservation of mass is expressed as: ∂A ∂Q + = q (9) ∂t ∂x The momentum equation is: ∂Q ∂(Q 2 / A) ∂h + + gA( + S ) = 0 (10) ∂t ∂x dx f

The friction slope Sf is estimated by using Manning’s equation as given: n 2 | Q | Q S = (11) f A2 R 4 / 3 Where,

Q = River flow (m3/s)

A = Cross-sectional area of flow (m2)

q = Lateral inflow per unit distance (m3/s/m) x = Longitudinal distance (m)

t = Time elapsed (s)

Sf = Friction slope h = Water surface elevation (m)

R = Hydraulic radius (m)

n = Manning’s friction coefficient g = Acceleration due to gravity (m/s2)

The governing equations (Eqs. 9 & 10) are solved with initial and boundary conditions to estimates one-dimensional river flows and water levels in the river system.

Cross-Section Data: Field surveys were carried out for the river cross-sections data required for river flow simulations. River cross-sections surveys were performed at three sections of the rivers, they are: (1) U-U Section (River section U/S of road centerline), (2) C-C Section (River section at road centerline), and (3) D-D Section (River section D/S of road centerline).

8.2 Scenarios of River Flow Simulations

A8-19 Rivers flows are simulated considering three scenarios they are:

Scenario-1: River flow is simulated to determine high water level (HWL) when there is 25- year design flow in the river.

Scenario-2: River flow is simulated to determine high water level (HWL) when there is 50- year design flow in the river.

Scenario-3: River flow is simulated to determine high water level (HWL) considering debris flow in the river.

Peak discharge of large sized debris flow:

QDF = 4.7QP (12)

Peak discharge of normal debris flow:

QDF = (1+ β )QP (13)

Where,

3 QDF = Peak discharge for debris flow (m /s)

3 QP = Peak discharge of 50-year normal flood flow (m /s) The value of β is based on gradient of river as presented below:

Value River Gradient β = 0.3 > 1/20 β = 0.2 1/60 - 1/20

Further, nature of flow in the river is also determined by the gradient of the river as given below:

Type of Flow River Gradient Normal flood flow 1/100 – 1/60 (1o) Normal debris flow 1/60 (1o) – 1/20 (3o) Stopping section of debris flow 1/20 (3o) – 1/5 (10o) Large sized debris flow 1/5 (10o) - 1/3 (15o)

8.3 Flow Distributions in Branches of Thakur Khola

Thakur Khola is divided into 4 branches before it confluence with the Kamala River. The branches are named as: Thakur Khola-1 (5-2), Thakur Khola-2 (5-3), Thakur Khola-3 (5-4) and Thakur Khola-4 (5-5). The flow areas distribution pattern in the branches of Thakur Khola is analyzed to distribute total discharge coming from the catchment. For this, flow areas of the branches at water level 499.00 m are determined and flow distribution factors are established. The flow distribution factors of total flow coming from the catchment for branches 1, 2, 3 and 4 are 0.222, 0.321, 0.391 and 0.065, respectively (Table 19).

The 25-year flow, 50-year Flow and debris flow of each branch of Thakur Khola are estimated and presented below (Table 20).

8.4 Bridge Modeling

The bridge modeling module of HEC-RAS has been used for simulating flow through the bridge. The module uses the momentum balance method for simulation of the flow through bridge. The momentum method is based on performing a momentum balance from cross section downstream of bridge to cross section upstream of bridge. The bridge routines in HEC-RAS allow the modeler to analyze a bridge with several different methods without changing the bridge geometry. Hence, the bridge routines have ability to model different types of flows through the bridge.

A8-21 8.5 Design HWLs in Rivers

The high water levels (HWLs) are estimated at 35 bridges sites in different rivers employing HEC-RAS river flow simulation model. The estimated HWLs at bridges sites of the rivers are presented in Table 21.

9. Conclusions

A8-23 The conclusions drawn from the study are as follows:

1. The peak discharges in all rivers except Roshi Khola of the project site are estimated by employing Rational method. For securing good accuracy on the estimated peak discharges of rivers, rainfall intensity duration frequency (IDF) curves of 9 stations, time of concentration of flow in rivers and basin area of rivers at bridges sites are determined. Basin rainfall intensities for the duration of time of concentration of flow in the rivers are computed and then peak discharges in rivers are determined also using basin area and runoff coefficient.

2. Design discharge of Roshi Khola at bridges sites are determined based on the specific discharge of the river at Panauti. Because the basin area of Roshi Khola at Panauti is 87 km2, whereas basin areas of the river at proposed bridges sites 9-1, 10-1 and 11-3 are 357 km2, 392 km2 and 545 km2, respectively. Due to having the basin areas of the Roshi Khola at bridges sites larger than at Panauti, the specific discharge of the river at Panauti is used for design discharge estimation in the river. Because in this situation the estimated design discharges of the river at bridges sites will not be underestimated and are considered reasonable.

3. The low and high rainfall pocket areas are found in the project area. The high rainfall pocket areas are: Hariharpur Gadhi (50-year daily rainfall of 475 mm), Sindhuli Gadhi (50-year daily rainfall of 423 mm), and Bahuntilpung (50-year daily rainfall of 327 mm). Similarly, the low rainfall pocket areas are: Pachuwarghat (50-year daily rainfall of 124 mm) and Dolalghat (50-year daily rainfall of 134 mm). The catchments areas of the rivers which cross the road nos. 2, 3 and 5 fall in the high rainfall pocket areas, therefore, higher amount of runoff in the rivers can be expected which is reflected in the estimated discharges of the rivers.

4. Thakur Khola is bifurcated into 4-branches with covering wide area of floodplain just before mixing it with Kamala River. Therefore, it will be difficult to divide the total discharge of Thakur Khola in each branch precisely, so the estimated high water level in each branch may not be so accurate. Because of this situation, it is recommended to ask with local residents on the observed highest water level in each branch of Thakur Khola in past to verify the estimated HWL of the branches. After interviewing the local residents, do assess the reasonable values of HWL for the branches and use them.

5. River cross-sections at road centerline, u/s of road centerline and d/s of road centerline are used for river flow simulation. For maintaining high accuracy in the estimated HWLs of the rivers, flows are simulated incorporating the cross-sections of the rivers in the widely used river flow simulation model HEC-RAS. Similarly, for modeling flow through bridge, locations and dimensions of piers and abutment are incorporated in the simulation model. Therefore, estimated HWLs by the model possess good accuracy.

6. However, the sites 1-1, 2-5, 2-6, 2-7, 3-1, 3-2, 3-5, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 5-4, 5-5, 5-8 and 5-11 in rivers are lying on flat floodplains, therefore, estimated HWLs in rivers on these sites are overestimated. Because, cross-sections of the rivers are not covering enough width of floodplains and the cross-sections are also almost plain thus river overflows both banks while performing simulation of river flow. To control overflow from river bank, tall levees are considered at both ends of the cross-sections and river flow simulation is

A8-24 performed. Hence, the model is overestimating HWL in the rivers. Because of these situations, construction of continuous box-bridge at the sites will not make the HWL in the rivers further higher. Therefore, it is recommended to verify and adjust the estimated HWL of the sites by field survey and asking with local residents and assess the reasonable HWL of the sites.

7. Flow through Marin Khola Bridge (2-1) is simulated using river cross-sections presented in DOR report and incorporating the proposed design of the bridge. The bridge dimensions used for the flow simulation are: 141.96 m total bridge length and 5 piers of 1.5 m width placed at 23.6 m intervals. River bed level at bridge site is 401.8 m. The design high water levels (HWLs) of bridge are: 406.44 m (25-year flood), 406.73 m (50-year flood) and 407.22 (Mud flow).

8. The river flow simulation of Hadi Khola (13-14) is carried out using river cross-sections of 6 locations which covers the long stretch of the river. Therefore, the shifted new road centerline falls within the river stretch of which cross- sections are used for flow simulation in the river. New road centerline falls along the second cross-section location (2-2), at this section river bed level is 1195.33 m and design HWLs are 1198.26 m (25- year flood), 1198.31 m (50-year flood) and 1200.77 m (Debris flow).

9. The elevation of bench mark used in topographic survey of Bohore Khola (8-2) is found different in the data given for hydrological study and for detailed design of the bridge. In the data given for hydrological study to estimate high water level in the river, the river bed elevation (at road centerline) is 495.41 m and estimated high water levels are: 496.69 m (25-year flood), 496.76 m (50-year flood) and 497.98 m (Debris flow). For converting the HWLs into the bench mark system used in topo-data for detailed design of bridge, the difference in elevations of river bed in the data given for hydrological study and for designing bridge should be added/subtracted to/from the estimated HWLs. In the topo-data given for bridge designing, the river bed elevation at road centerline is 497.61 m, therefore, there is a difference of 2.2 m in elevations between two sets of data. Hence, while designing bridge HWL should be considered as: 498.89 m (25-year flood), 498.96 m (50-year flood) and 500.18 m (Debris flow).
