Abstract

ABSTRACT: A two‐dimensional dam‐break model was used to predict the inundated area on an alluvial fan downslope from the Orange County Reservoir. The model is based upon a diffusion form of the continuity and momentum equations for long waves in shallow water, and the governing equation is solved by an explicit numerical scheme. In a comparison with a one‐dimensional model, the two‐dimensional model predicts a wider inundated area.
