Abstract

The hourly critical rainfall of short diachronic strong precipitation for urban waterlogging was calculated by inverse operation of SCS-CN model, which could simulate the runoff process of city rainfall combining with the runoff curve number and drainage ability in Shanghai. In the simulation, the downtown of Shanghai was divided to 284 drain units; the suburb was divided to 114 drain units. Also, the submergence depth of 5 cm was set as a critical value to judge whether the rainfall caused urban waterlogging. For a certain unit, when it appears strong rainfall in an hour, one certain point in the unit is submerged, and its depth is 5 cm, this precipitation is called the critical value causing urban waterlogging for this unit. Based on the conservation of water volume, this precipitation could be calculated by inverse operation of SCS-CN model. Besides, four typical examples of short diachronic strong precipitation was chosen, which led to serious disaster with more 110 urban waterlogging alarms. According to the relationship between hourly precipitation and 110 urban waterlogging alarms of four typical example, the result calculated by SCS-CN model could be verified. The results of inversion calculation of SCS-CN model and verification of four typical examples indicated that it may appear the waterlogging area and 110 alarms in downtown and most parts of suburb when the hourly rainfall is 30~40 mm·h-1 (appearing disasters). The waterlogging area will expand to new-built town of suburb and 110 alarms will increase obviously when the rainfall is more than or equal to 50 mm·h-1 (worse disasters). The waterlogging area will also appear in regions which are in higher ground of downtown and with stronger drainage ability in new-built town near the downtown, the 110 alarm was intensive and waterlogging area will appear in any regions of Shanghai when the rainfall is more than or equal to 70 mm·h-1 (appearing heavy disasters). Rainstorm is the main meteorological disaster of Shanghai in summer half year. Rainstorm of Shanghai had turned to strong, local, extremely short-time change trend and the short diachronic strong precipitation had been one of the most destructive meteorological disasters from May to September of Shanghai since 1995, it was an important reason of water disasters and the serious water disasters was caused by it in Shanghai. Thus, research fruit on the critical value of short diachronic strong precipitation causing urban waterlogging could provide reliable scientific basis to draw up measure for effective prevention of urban waterlogging in Shanghai but the research reports with respect to the critical value of short diachronic strong precipitation were less.
