Dynamic Hull and Propeller Interaction Factors for FF-1052 Predicted from Quasi-Steady Model Experiments.

Abstract

This report presents the dynamic hull and propeller interaction factors for the FF-1052 Class fitted with a controllable pitch propeller. These factors are to be used in a digital-computer propulsion dynamics-simulation program. The results in this report were obtained from quasi-steady model experiments performed in September 1975. A systematic series of curves were generated from the experimental data showing the behavior of wake and thrust deduction factors as a function of pitch ratio. Such data have not previously been published. (Author)
