A method for calculation of the variable forces acting on the screw propeller
Abstract
The paper describes a method for calculation of the variable forces acting on the screw propeller. A general approach to the problem and a mathematical model are presented. The method is based on the unsteady lifting surface method. To obtain the results the potential flow theory is used. The geometry of the screw propeller and the velocity field before it can be arbitrary. In the calculations the change of the wake vortex sheet geometry is taken into account. The method can be used to calculate the thrust force in the condition of ship’s motion in waves.
