Frequency Analysis for Kelkit Stream's the Daily Extreme Flows

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to determine the best suitable probability distribution for the daily extreme flows of Kelkit stream. In this study, the daily flow values measured from 1938 to 1988 in the flow station numbered 1401 which is operated by General Directorate of Electric Power Research Survey and Development Administration EIE were used. The daily extreme flows among daily flows for each month and each year were selected. Since reserving water by Kı l ı çkaya dam built on Kelkit stream had been started after 1988, the daily flows, that came after this date were not taken into account for homogeneity. To determine a suitable probability distribution for daily extreme flows, normal, log normal, three parameter log normal, two parameter gamma, Pearson type III, log Pearson type III, extreme value type I, three parameter Weibull distributions were used. The selected maximum daily flows of each month were fitted better to, Pearson type III for the second, fifth and tenth months; log Pearson type III for the first, eleventh and twelveth months; log normal for the third, seventh and eighth months; three parameters log normal for the fourth and nineth months and extreme value type I for the sixth month. The minimum daily flows of each month were fitted better to, three parameter Weibull for the first, second, nineth and tenth months; three parameter log normal for the third, fourth and eleventh months; Pearson type III for the fifth and sixth months; extreme value type 1 for the seventh month; normal for the eighth month and log normal for the twelveth month. The daily extreme flows for each year were also fitted better to Pearson type III distribution.
