Investigation of effect weight of parameteres affecting the hydrodynamic coefficients in design of surface-piercing propellers.

High speed craft with the wide and various uses of entertainment, sporting, commercial and military, usually has a top speed of 30 knots. Due to the limitations of the design, use of propulsion system is a key issue, with regard to the desirable features surface-piercing propeller, their use in the propulsion system of the vessel, has been very useful. High efficiency, no restrictions to increase the diameter, resistance equipment supplied propeller removed, the proper functioning of cavitation, are examples of these features. To achieve the best efficiency and thrust requirements, requires accurate determination of the coefficient of hydrodynamic thrust and torque. Given the importance of determining the coefficients and their dependence on various physical parameters and geometric, it is necessary to understand the effect of these parameters on the hydrodynamic coefficients, so in this study, experimental tests and collect data using sensitivity analysis, the weight of each parameter and the interaction of parameters surface-piercing propeller to evaluate the hydrodynamic coefficients on the propeller thrust, propeller torque, and therefore performance, is desired. Based on the results obtained, the parameters of step angle, skew and compared to other parameters, have the greatest impact in changing the propeller efficiency, while changing the ratio Immersion, the change will have little impact on efficiency and propeller.
