Abstract
In this study to estimate suitable size of rain tank in Suwon district, monthly rainfall, daily rainfall duration curve and daily rainy days have been analyzed. Annual rainwater consumption and daily average amount of storage with respect to size of rain tank have been calculated by applying continuity equations that take account of daily rainfall, daily consumptive use, storage of rain tank, It has been shown that above 50 mm of rainfall in the ordinance related to reclamation water may be inappropriate regulation if annual amount of rainfall captured, efficiency of utilized rainwater, number of days for utilized rain tank, daily average amount of storage and daily consumptive use have been considered. Thus, it has been shown that suitable size of rain tank should be determined considering reasonable daily consumptive use with respect to district, constructed cost of rain tank and benefit of rain tank constructed.
