Popis: Side flow on a flood plain from a side outlet of the main channel is investigated both theoretically and experimentally for supercritical main flow. The side outlet as a model simulates a failure of a river bank in a prototype. The discharge ratios of the side outflow to that of the main channel flow, the water depth, and the velocity at the side outlet are obtained. The theoretical discharge ratio is a function of the Froude number of the main channel flow. The theoretical spreading angle of the side flow and the theoretical relationship between the velocities and the distance from an upstream point of the side outlet are also compared and predicted. All the theoretical results are found to be in good agreement with the experimental data.
