Three blades or four, how propeller design balances speed, power, and cavitation
Ship propellers are a constant compromise between efficiency, vibration, cavitation, and power delivery. This video explains why adding blades can solve serious mechanical problems, and why engineers ...
Naval Group manufactured a new-generation propeller via a metal 3D printing process, mounted on a tripartite minehunter.This propeller is 2.5-m in diameter, supported by five 200-kg blades. The ...
Arguably there is no more important piece of the vessel’s drive train than the propeller. If propeller geometry is out of whack, either from inaccurate design or a strike in the water, the results, if ...
Could the secret to transforming propeller design lie in the dimples of a golf ball? It might sound far-fetched, but the same aerodynamic principles that allow a golf ball to soar farther and faster ...
