Improve Ship Propeller Efficiency via Optimum Design of Propeller Boss Cap Fins

Computational Analysis of Propeller Sheet Cavitation and Propeller-ship Interaction

This paper describes a computational procedure which is being developed for the practical analysis of propeller sheet cavitation and propeller-ship interaction including hull pressure fluctuations. The computational procedure consists of three different, coupled methods: (i) a RANS method for the analysis of the viscous flow around the ship hull and the determination of the velocity field in th...

Propeller Design and Propulsion Concepts for Ship Operation in Off- Design Conditions

Ship operators are calling more often for reduced fuel consumption and economic ship operation also in offdesign. The versatile operation profile of ship types such as RoRo-vessels are then a challenge for the design of the propeller and for the propulsion concept. This paper presents aspects on the propeller design and propulsion concept of a ship as well as design methods for the propeller. L...

بکارگیری روش المان مرزی در طراحی سیستماتیک پروانه

Propeller is one of the main propulsors for marine vehicles which produces thrust to overcome the resistance of the ship. Propeller works in the place behind the ship where the flow is non-uniform and with three dimensional velocities, so it causes the fluctuating thrust. The first part of this paper employs the boundary element method (BEM) to evaluate and analyze the hydrodynamic performance ...

Parallel Processing System Design with "Propeller" Processor

This is a technical and experimental report of parallel processing, using the "Propeller" chip. Its eight 32 bits processors (cogs) can operate simultaneously, either independently or cooperatively, sharing common resources through a central hub. I introduce this unique processor and discuss about the possibility to develop interactive systems and smart interfaces in media arts, because we need...
