Abstract: A pool wave generator having a pool area and a plurality of chambers for generating a wave in the pool area. Exemplary embodiments include using exhaust valves in each chamber to control the performance of fans. Measuring the power consumed by the fans in real time allows determination of the amount of air to be evacuated from the pneumatic system (and thus an opening angle of the exhaust valves) so that the fans operate at maximum efficiency and with less instability. In an exemplary embodiment, a valve mounted on the fan inlet allows the incoming air flow to be controlled, thereby allow the motors to continue rotating at a given speed with little or no energy consumption when the valve is partially or fully closed.

Abstract: A pool wave generator having a pool area and a plurality of chambers for generating a wave in the pool area. Exemplary embodiments described herein may be used to control the fluid flow within the pool area. For example, exemplary embodiments may include a control system for selecting the position of one or more valves of the chamber in order to control the ingress and egress of water from the chamber. Exemplary embodiments may be used to control the wave generated from the chambers, reduced unwanted turbulence, and/or generated a designed wave based on the individual control of the respective chambers.
