Abstract
A procedure is given for the design of propellers with large hubs. The hub is modelled by a line sink. A lifting-line propeller model with no hub far downstream is used for thrust, torque, and efficiency calculations. The circulation distribution from this wake propeller is moved up the hub streamlines to the propeller plane for the actual lifting-surface propeller blade design.
