Abstract:
General extreme value distribution(GEV) is commonly used in international hydrology frequency analysis.In order to assess the feasibility of GEV in design flood, this paper summarized the relationship among distribution parameters, statistic character parameters, L-moment and dispersion coefficient of general extreme value distribution.Meanwhile, compares with P-Ш distribution in difference of statistic character parameters and design value. The results show that GEV is feasible for design flood, but the rationality for check flood calculation still need more research.
