Experimental dataset on water levels in the investigation of silted-up dam break flood wave for dry- and wet-bed downstream conditions while 50 to 80% of the dam reservoir is filled-up with sediment

Experimental data collection

In this file, all water level data associated with 20 different silted-up dam break scenarios were extracted from high-quality experimental video images. The dataset are collected, classified and presented a total of 20 distinct tables in 5 categories based on initial upstream sediment depth; 15 cm, 17.5 cm, 20 cm, 22 cm and 24 cm. Tables 1-4, present the free surface water level data at 20 different locations along the flume and 15 snap times after the dam break, while the initial upstream sediment depth is 15 cm (50% of the reservoir height). Dry- and wet-bed initial downstream condition with 2 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm standing water depth are detailed in Table 1-4, respectively. Table 5-8 provide the free surface water level data at all abovementioned sections and snap times while the initial upstream sediment depth is 17.5 cm (58% of the reservoir height), and dry- or wet-bed downstream with 2 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm standing water depth were considered as initial downstream conditions, respectively. Table 9-12 show the free surface water level data at all sections and snap times while the initial upstream sediment depth is 20 cm (67% of the reservoir height), and dry- or wet-bed downstream with 2 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm standing water depth were considered as initial downstream conditions, respectively. Table 13-16 provide the free surface water level data at all sections and snap times while the initial upstream sediment depth is 22 cm (73% of the reservoir height), and dry- or wet-bed downstream with 2 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm standing water depth were considered as initial downstream conditions, respectively. Table 17-20 show the free surface water level data at all sections and snap times while the initial upstream sediment depth is 24 cm (80% of the reservoir height), and dry- or wet-bed downstream with 2 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm standing water depth were considered as initial downstream conditions, respectively.

实验数据采集
本文件中，所有与20种不同淤堵溃坝场景相关的水位数据，均从高质量实验视频影像中提取得到。本数据集经采集、分类并整理呈现，共包含20个独立表格，按照上游初始淤积泥沙深度划分为5大类，对应深度分别为15 cm、17.5 cm、20 cm、22 cm及24 cm。

表格1至4展示了当上游初始淤积泥沙深度为15 cm（为库高的50%）时，沿水槽布设的20个不同测点在溃坝后15个抓拍时刻的自由表面水位数据；其中下游初始工况分别为干床、湿床且存在2 cm、4 cm、5 cm积水的情况，详见表格1至4。

表格5至8展示了当上游初始淤积泥沙深度为17.5 cm（为库高的58%）时，上述所有测点在对应抓拍时刻的自由表面水位数据，且下游初始工况分别为干床、湿床且存在2 cm、4 cm、5 cm积水的情况。

表格9至12展示了当上游初始淤积泥沙深度为20 cm（为库高的67%）时，上述所有测点在对应抓拍时刻的自由表面水位数据，且下游初始工况分别为干床、湿床且存在2 cm、4 cm、5 cm积水的情况。

表格13至16展示了当上游初始淤积泥沙深度为22 cm（为库高的73%）时，上述所有测点在对应抓拍时刻的自由表面水位数据，且下游初始工况分别为干床、湿床且存在2 cm、4 cm、5 cm积水的情况。

表格17至20展示了当上游初始淤积泥沙深度为24 cm（为库高的80%）时，上述所有测点在对应抓拍时刻的自由表面水位数据，且下游初始工况分别为干床、湿床且存在2 cm、4 cm、5 cm积水的情况。
