Wave flumes
For an initial check on the dimensional design of a structure, under frontal wave attack.
C1M
Longitudinal section of the 1m wave flume

Dimensions: L= 41 m (22 useful) x l= 1 m x h= 2 m
Wave generator with angular displacement around a bottom axis, operated by hydraulic jack
Waves generated are random:
- 0.7 s < Tp < 3.5 s
- max. wave height: 0.26 m
- max. water depth: 1.4 m.
C1M2
Dimensions: L= 41 m (22 useful) x l= 1.2m x h= 1.5 m
Wave generator with flat displacement
Waves generated are random:
- 0.7 s < Tp < 4.0 s
- max. wave height: 0.175 m
- max. water depth: 0.6 m.
C2M4
Dimensions: L= 41 m (30m useful) x l= 2.4 m x h=1.9 m
Wave generator with angular displacement around a bottom axis, operated by hydraulic jack
Waves generated are random
- 0.7 s < Tp < 3.5 s
- max. wave height: 0.540 m
- max. water depth: 1.40 m.
