Listing Description
The Leichtweiß-Institute of Hydraulic Engineering and Water Resources at Technische Universität Braunschweig operates the Twin Wave Flume.
The Twin Wave Flume consits of two parallel wave flumes, 1 m and 2 m wide, 90 m long, and 1.20 m deep. Two wave makers can generate regular and irregular waves with wave heights up to 0.3 m and wave periods of 1 s – 4.5 s.
