A wave generating system can include a water channel for creating a flow of water to produce a standing wave. A water return passageway can circulate the water back to the inlet of the water channel. One or more pipes can extend under the water channel for circulating the water. A water storage chamber can be positioned below the water channel. Water can be stored in the space between the one or more pipes, and the storage water can be isolated from the water being circulated in the system. The system can produce a hydraulic circuit with hydraulic continuity so that water can be efficiently circulated through the water channel and water return passageway. The system can be modular.

The invention comprises an adjustable valve system, apparatus and method using an adjustable drum assembly that can be used in conjunction with a blower or pump to drive air into and out of the drum assembly, wherein the adjustable valve system is useful in connection with operating wave generator caissons for wave pools. The present system preferably comprises an inner drum coaxially aligned and rotatably positioned within an outer drum, wherein side openings are provided on the inner and outer drums which can be aligned together to allow air to flow into and/or out of the drum assembly. That way, by adjusting the position of the inner drum relative to the outer drum, the valve system can enable the air to flow either into or out of the drum assembly and therefore the associated caisson. The system can be used to introduce positive or negative air pressure in the caisson and create waves in a wave pool.

Provided is a tank wave-current generation system with a rear-mounted outlet. The rear-mounted outlet and a rectifying device located below a tank are arranged, the rectifying device comprises a rectifying chamber and a built-in rectifying grid, one end of the rectifying chamber is communicated with a water collection tank, and the other end of the rectifying chamber is communicated with a bottom wall of a tank unit, an outlet in the bottom wall is located at a front end of a wave pushing direction of a wave generator, a current subjected to preliminary energy dissipation in the water collection tank is rectified into a smooth fluid through the rectifying grid and then a steady current is input into the tank, so that the current pushed by a wave pushing plate arranged on the wave generator is a steady current meeting a test requirement.

A wave system is disclosed herein. The wave system may include an obstacle in which water is pushed over to create a wave contoured surface for ridntoured surface for riding or maneuvering by a user.

A wave pool and wave generating mechanism are disclosed. The wave pool includes a bathymetry that includes a dynamically shapeable reef along a length or circumference of a channel that defines the wave pool. The wave generating mechanism includes a foil that has a shape for bi-directionality based on an adjustment of a yaw angle of the foil. The foil can be further controlled to increase or decrease certain surface areas or other angles of interacting with water in the wave pool.
