Abstract
The tandem propeller system (TPS) for submersible propulsion and control was conceived by the author in 1961. This paper traces its theoretical and experimental development through the most recent tests conducted at Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory. Although the initial configuration was for high-speed nuclear submarines, the emphasis in recent years has been for application to the slower, more maneuverable deep-submergence vehicles. Both configurations are discussed in detail in this paper.
