Wind-Tunnel Tests of Single- and Dual-Rotating Tractor Propellers at Low Blade Angles and of Two- and Three-Blade Tractor Propellers at Blade Angles up to 65 deg

Abstract

Tests were conducted to determine the characteristics at low blade angles of propellers for which data at high blade angles are already available. In addition to the low blade-angle results, there are included data on two- and three-bladed propellers of the same blade design which have not been published and which cover a range of blade angles from 20 to 65 deg.
