To evaluate the applicability of inflow runoff model to reservoir operation in Korea, DAWAST model and TPHM model which are conceptual lumped daily runoff model and were developed in Korea, were selected and applied to simulate inflows to Daecheong multipurpose dam with watershed area of 4,134 km<SUP>2</SUP>, and water storages in Geryong reservoir with watershed area of 15.1 km<SUP>2</SUP> and total water storage of 3.4 M m<SUP>3</SUP>. Evaluating inflows on an yearly, monthly, ten-day, and daily basis, inflows by DAWAST model showed balanced scatters around equal value line. But inflow by TPHM model showed high in high flows. Annual mean water balance by DAWAST model was rainfall of 1,159.9 mm, evapotranspiration of 622.1 mm, and inflow of 644.6 mm, from which rainfall was 104.8 mm less than sum of evapotranspiration and inflow, and showed unbalanced result. Water balance by TPHM model showed satisfactory result. Reservoir water storages were shown to simulate on a considerable level from applying DAWAST and TPHM models to simulate inflows to Geryong reservoir. But it was concluded to be needed to improve DAWAST and TPHM model together from imbalance of water balance and low estimation in high flow.
