CFD for Marine Prppeller Design
 
Dose any one know of any one or group that have done any work on Marine Proppeller design Using CFD or any books on it?

Maybe you can contact M. Peric of the Marine-Institut in Hamburg: http://www.schiffbau.uni-hamburg.de/IFS/AB/AB-3-13/ab313.html. Peric also wrote a book "Ferziger, Peric, 1996, Computational Methods for Fluid Dynamics, Springer-Verlag", which gives a good introduction into CFD. His group worked on the CFD-Code COMET.

You should have a look at

http://hydromech.fb12.tu-berlin.de

They have done CFD on flow around propellers. You can download some of their papers on that topic in postscript-format.

Good luck,

Michael

You should contact Dr. Abdel-Maksoud at Schiffsbau-Versuchsanstalt Potsdam GmbH, Germany (Ship design research institute). He did a lot of CFD work on ship propellers and hulls using CFX-TASCflow. His work includes full transient interaction between rotating ship propeller and the flow around the hull.

Michael,

Check out the US NAVY research labs web site. I can guarantee most of the stuff is classified (The stuff is mostly a secret, no matter what country you are in), but it still would be your best source.

Prof. Fred Stern & his group in Iowa Institute of Hydraulic Research is pioneer in this area (Hull Propeller) Interaction. A good reference is Proceedings of "22nd ITTC Propulsion Committee Propeller RANS/Panel Method Workshop", Grenoble, France, 5-6April, 1998, Editors-Bernard Gindroz, Tetsuji Hoshino & Jaakko V. Pylkkanen Hope this will help. Regards,

CFD cannot perform the propeller design work, it must be coupled with potential flow method.
