Abstract

In the present study, the effect of fillet surface on the performance of the ducted propeller using Reynolds-Average Navier Stokes (RANS) method is applied. The numerical simulations compare the propeller model with fillet on the surface and without fillet. OpenFOAM is used to simulate the performances and solve the problems in the open water propeller simulation. MRF approach is applied for this simulation. Kaplan model with the 19A nozzle is investigated by comparing the results with experimental data. The effect of fillet surface on the ducted propeller are presented and discussed in this study.
