Hi SBender,

if you are sure that the flow reamians in the channel and you don't have any retention area in case of a flood event, then HEC-Ras is enough for the dambreak simulation . However I don't know how diffusive the HEC dambreak algorithm is?
In othercase and for best resaults, it is better to use a 2D model (see BASEMENT in web).

good luck
Dave
