The Theory of Propellers. 2. Method for Calculating the Axial Interference Velocity

Abstract

A technical method is given for calculating the axial interference velocity of a propeller. The method involves the use of certain weight functions P, Q, and F. Numerical values for the weight functions are given for two-blade, three-blade, and six-blade propellers.
