Abstract
Surface water collection networks are responsible for collecting, transporting and directing runoff to the nearest acceptable outlet. In this research, simulation and evaluation of Ilam City runoff system with the ASSA mathematical model developed by the Autodesk Inc. was carried out. In the present research, the entire study area, which includes in-city and outsides, was divided into 46 sub-basins. The physical properties of each sub-basin were determined using the ArcGIS software and field investigation. Within the Ilam City there are four main channels that lead the runoff of sub-basins out of the city. The runoff from sub-basins was calculated using three methods of rational, modified rational and SWMM. The results of the study showed that the collecting system only had a flood transfer ability during the two year return period and during the return periods greater than five years the major part of the main channels in the city were waterlogged and damaged.
