In this project the same must be examined by CFD by using a relevant Navier-Stokes equations solver. The results must be compared with results of model tests. The examination must include: • wake fraction, i.e. nominal and effective wake, wake scaling (if possible) and dependence of propeller loading and load distribution. • thrust deduction fraction in model and full scale and its dependence on propeller load distribution • relative rotative efficiency (if possible) and its dependence on propeller geometry and loading. • Supervisor:Poul Andersen, Phone: 45 25 13 66, e-mail: pa@mek.dtu.dk Bachelor/Master project 06.11.2006
