The Propeller Handbook: The Complete Reference for Choosing, Installing, and Understanding Boat Propellers


Book Description

On the surface, choosing the correct propeller for a particular boat seems simple. But one factor affects another, which then affects another factor, leading many boaters to believe that propeller selection depends more on black magic than logic. All the questions are answered in this complete reference, the first of its kind. This clear, easy-to-use handbook for all small boats is written not for Ph.D.s seeking the latest wrinkle in high-tech propeller design, but as a practical aid for the average mechanic, engineer, boatbuilder, fleet operator, serious yachtsman, or naval architect.

Aircraft Propellers


Book Description

Power to. drive the airplane through the air is furnished by the engine, the brake horsepower of which is transformed into thrust by the propeller. The propeller may be described as a twisted airfoil of irregular plan form. In order to analyze the blade element, each blade is divided into 6-inch sections and each section is set at the proper angle to the relative air (fig. 1). The sections near the tip of the propeller travel at a higher peripheral speed than those near the hub, consequently the blade angles become less as the tip is approached. The sections from 12 to 18 inches from the hub are thick ill order to give strength to the propeller, and as a result, deliver little or no thrust. In general, each section is so designed and set at such an angle that when the propeller is being operated at a given rotative and forward speed, the best efficiency of each section will be obtained.
