This book deals with flows over propellers operating behind ships,
and the hydrodynamic forces and moments which the propeller
generates on the shaft and on the ship hull. The first part of the
book is devoted to fundamentals of the flow about hydrofoil
sections and wings, propellers in uniform flow and pragmatic design
guides for analysis and performance. The second part covers the
development of unsteady section and blade forces arising from
operation in non-uniform hull wakes. The problem of a
non-cavitating, wide-bladed propeller in a wake is treated by a new
and completely developed theory. A final chapter discusses the
optimisation of efficiency of compound propulsors. The authors have
taken great care to clearly describe physical concepts and
mathematical steps. An appendix provides a concise introduction to
(or reprise of) the mathematical techniques used.
