Abstract : The U.S. Soil Conservation Service revised model (TR-55) is used to obtain peak discharges of the storms produced in Wadi Tabalah. Tabular Hydrograph Method is applied to simulate the values in order to compare them with the observed flood peak records. The model is found advantageous for computing practical watershed hydrograph parameters, such as losses, detention storages, time of concentration, considering some of the basic watershed and hydrologic parameters (size of basin, curve number, travel time and 24-hr rainfall depth) as input. Computational example is presented with the tabulated input values of seven observed storms. The findings are discussed in tabular and graphical forms, and compared with the historical records. The other model studies obtained through unit hydrograph and routing procedures by the author are compared with the model TR-55 in order to draw conclusion about the practicality and applicability of the model under arid climate condition when the data is scarce and limited.
