Qt is base flow in t period, and Qo is initial discharge (in t=0).

Based on the observation

hydrograph in SPAS Empang during the observation period, average k value is obtained, i.e.
0,72. Threshold flow is the flow in the beginning of recession curve in declining side of a
hydrograph. In HEC-HMS, threshold flow is determined as a ratio to peak. The ratio to peak
of observation hydrograph, in Empang ranges from 0.25 0.5; or 0.42 in average.

The calculation of river flow routing in HEC-HMS is shown in routing model (channel flow
model). The research employs Lag method. The parameter needed is flow travel time from
inlet to outlet, determined by correlation between the flowrate and the river length. Based on
the configuration of Upstream Cisadane Watershed, routing process is divided into 9 elements
or reach, i.e.: R-30, R-70, R- 110, R-120, R-150, R-160, R-130, R-210, and R-220. Based on
the calculation, k parameter for 30, R-70, R-110, R-120, R-150, R-160, R-130, R 210, and R-
220 are 60, 60, 60, 60, 30, 30, 60, 30 and 30 minutes respectively
