The invention discloses a dam-breaking circulating water tank, which comprises an experimental water tank, a dam-breaking gate, a water storage tank, a drainage gate, a water pump tank, a circulating water pump, a water inlet pipe, an upstream water injection pipe, a downstream water injection pipe, a drain pipe and an aqueduct; The gate is set in the experimental water tank, perpendicular to the water flow direction in the experimental water tank; the water storage tank is located directly below the experimental water tank and connected to the water outlet of the experimental water tank; the drainage gate is located in the experimental water tank, adjacent to the water outlet of the experimental water tank; the water pump tank is located in the water storage tank The side of the water tank is also connected to the water outlet of the water storage tank, and its absolute elevation is smaller than that of the water storage tank; the water inlet pipe, the upstream water injection pipe, the downstream water injection pipe and the water guide pipe are connected through a four-way connection, and the circulating water pump is connected to the water guide pipe. The device of the invention can efficiently and conveniently complete repeated dam break experiments, and can also be used for wave-making experiments and uniform water circulation experiments, and the slope adjustment function can cooperate with various hydrodynamic experiments, which greatly improves the scope of application.
