This research will identify the equivalence of the serial rainfall to the design flood. The equivalence of serial rainfall data is very necessary to solve the flooding problem. A case study is in the University of Brawijaya-Malang-East Java Province-Indonesia. The methodology consists of analyzing the design flood using the Nakayasu Synthetic Unit Hydrograph and then analyzing the equivalence of cumulative serial rainfall to the design flood. The equivalence of rainfall in this research discusses two items: the rainfall equivalence to the hydraulic and hydrologic conditions. Based on the hydraulic condition, the capacity of the drainage channel can store the rainfall for 85.77 mm for the return period of 2 years; 105.86 mm for the return period of 5 years; and 119.26 mm for the return period of 10 years. However, based on the hydrologic condition, for the design flood with the return period of 2 years is 382.25 m3/s, and it has the equivalence close to the discharged recording of AWLR Gadang that is 386.76 m3/s which is due to the rainfall for 11 mm (the category of heavy rain); for the return period of 5 years, the design flood is 471.07 m3/s, and it is equivalent with the flood discharge of 463.73 m3/s that is caused by the rainfall of 12.1 mm (the category of heavy rain); for the return period of 10 years, the design flood is 589.99 m3/s, and it is caused by the rainfall of 13.4 mm (the category of heavy rain). Based on the hydraulic and hydrologic condition, the capacity of the drainage channel that is installed in the campus region of Brawijaya University, it can be concluded that for the return period of 2 years, the drainage channel is only able to reduce 41% of flood volume; for the return period of 5 years, the drainage channel is only able to reduce 26% of flood volume; however, for the return period of 10 years, the drainage channel is only able to reduce 23% of flood volume.
