Wave Generator and Beach
Product Code : LSK-FM-10446
Wave Generator and Beach (SKU LSK-FM-10446) is a wave-making unit with a model beach, designed for use with laboratory flow channels to show how waves dissipate as they run up a beach. Wave frequency is variable and amplitude is set by hand. It supports coastal and hydraulic engineering practicals in civil engineering degrees and diplomas. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the unit in its Saha, Ambala factory at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, India, and sells it directly to universities, contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The set combines a wave generator and a beach model. The generator allows variable control of wave frequency together with manual adjustment of amplitude, so students can create a range of wave conditions and watch how each one is dissipated as it impinges on the beach.

Applications and Experiments for the Wave Generator and Beach
Students set a frequency and amplitude, observe the waves travelling along the channel and record how they break and lose energy on the beach. Changing the settings shows how wave steepness affects breaking and run-up, giving a practical introduction to coastal protection and harbour design.
- B.Tech / B.E. civil engineering: introduction to coastal and ocean hydraulics.
- Wave dissipation and breaking on a sloping beach.
- Effect of wave frequency and amplitude on run-up.
- M.Tech and project work on shore protection concepts.
Standard Scope of Supply
The set is supplied as the wave generator with its frequency control and manual amplitude adjustment, plus the beach model. The flow channel in which it is used is a separate item, and any optional accessories are listed on the quotation.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotes are issued for a single wave set or for a larger order, and each lists the packing, delivery time and price for the quantity requested. Additional fluid mechanics lab experiments can be combined into that one quotation.
Holding an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies is able to ship to buyers in Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria and Kenya. Start with the contact page or the enquiry cart; if you are buying under a tender, the lab tender page explains the process.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are the waves controlled?
Wave frequency has variable control, and amplitude is adjusted manually, so a range of wave conditions can be produced in the channel.
What does the beach model demonstrate?
It shows how waves dissipate as they impinge on a beach, so students can compare breaking and energy loss at different wave settings.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
The unit is a Science Lab Supplies manufacture, built at its Saha, Ambala facility in India. Quotations are sent by the manufacturer itself, not via a reseller.
Which channel does it work with?
It is made for use with flow channels. Send your channel details through the contact page so the fit can be confirmed before you order.
Related Flow Channel Models
These four Fluid Mechanics items share the flow channel with the wave set and extend it into sediment, bed roughness, pier and flow visualisation studies for a varied hydraulics course.
- Bridge Piers — four profiled piers with sediment walls.
- Sediment Loop — pumps sediment back upstream to replenish the bed.
- Roughened Beds - Gravel — weighted 1500 mm gravel bed lengths.
- Flow Visualisation Channel — acrylic channel with dye injectors for streamlines.
