A two-hour duration storm event with uniform excess rainfall of 3 cm occurred on a watershed. The ordinates of streamflow hydrograph resulting from this event are given in the table.
Time (hours) | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Streamflow (m³/s) | 10 | 16 | 34 | 40 | 31 | 25 | 16 | 10 |
Considering a constant baseflow of 10 m³/s, the peak flow ordinate (in m³/s) of one-hour unit hydrograph for the watershed is ________ . (in integer)
