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 impinge on a beach. Wave frequency is variable and amplitude is set by hand. It suits coastal and hydraulic engineering practicals in civil engineering degrees and diplomas. Science Lab Supplies manufactures the generator and beach model together at its Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area works in Saha, Ambala, India, and universities, contractors and distributors buy from the company without intermediaries.
Specifications
The wave set's controls and parts are given one row each in the table. In short, it combines a wave generator and a beach model for flow channels; 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 is dissipated 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 conditions affect 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, after wave reflection, refraction and diffraction are first seen on the physics Wave Tank.
- Wave dissipation and breaking on a beach.
- Effect of wave frequency and amplitude on run-up, linked to transverse and longitudinal wave motion shown by the rods of the Wave Machine.
- 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. Coastal-hydraulics enquiries can be posted on the contact page with the size of your flow channel, collected in the enquiry cart, or routed through the lab tender page when a tender applies.
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 and their dissipation compared on the beach.
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?
Wave generator and beach model alike are built by Science Lab Supplies at its factory in Saha, Ambala, India. Being the manufacturer, the company sends its quotation directly instead of through 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 Fluid Mechanics items share a flow channel with the wave set and extend it into sediment, bed roughness, pier, structure and flow visualisation studies, giving a varied hydraulics course that can be priced on one quotation.
- Bridge Piers — streamline curvature between the piers.
- Sediment Loop — control box hung on the instrument frame.
- Roughened Beds - Gravel — small grade 2–5 mm and large grade 10 mm gravel.
- Flow Visualisation Channel — stainless steel settling tank reduces turbulence.
- Spillway — energy dissipation over spillways.
- Culvert — open and orifice flow models.
- Self-Regulating Siphon — mostly constant upstream level.
