Abstract: With the advantages of simple structure, good energy dissipation effect and so on, the sky jump energy dissipation is widely used in energy dissipation of water conservancy project. But at present, the prediction about the range of the free nappe is not complete. The studies show that the ejection angle is different at different locations of the outlet section, but the specific distribution of the outlet section velocity is still unclear. The measurement of free nappe range is mostly the direct measurement, how to accurately control is still difficult, and no systematic study has been made. Especially, the studies on the diffusion width of free nappe are few, the understanding of free nappe diffusion is not enough. In this article, the deflection degree of flow velocity at the outlet section in the lateral direction is quantified by the spread angle. Studied the distribution characteristic of spread angle through numerical simulation. The results show that the distribution characteristics and the maximum value of spread angle are affected by the change of flip bucket size and approach flow condition, and presented a set of equations for calculating the maximum angle.
