Flood Risk Map Analysis Based on Dam-Break Simulation

Xiao Ling Wang, Long Zhou, Rui Sun

Abstract

The flood risk map is useful to make a regional flood emergency plan and analyze the dam-break flood risk. A three-dimensional mathematical model is applied to simulate the floods evolution with consideration of the dam-break process and the complex boundary condition synthetically, and the finite volume method is used to get a discrete solution. The flood evolution process of Dongwushi reservoir in the instantaneous collapse conditions is taken as a case, and the flood risk map is obtained based on the results of calculation.
