Abstract

Object and purpose of research. This paper discusses numerical method for simulation of propeller parameters in model and full-scale conditions. The purpose is to develop a similar methods for extrapolation of propeller model test data to the full-scale. Materials and methods. Propeller parameters are simulated as per the improved numerical method of E. Papmel. The flow around cylindrical section profiles of blades and hub is simulated as per the methods of boundary integral equations and integral calculation methods for the boundary layer with consideration of laminary-to-turbulent transition. Main results. Development of the method taking into account scale effect for propellers. The method has been applied to extrapolate model test data to the full scale. Conclusion. The method is of practical value for modern propeller design.
