Simplified propeller analysis and design including effects of stall

ABSTRACT A simplified method to analyse propellers based on vortex theory is presented. Small-angle approximations are implemented to eliminate the need for iteration in the determination of the induced angle-of-attack. A stall model is developed and combined with analytic relations describing the blade aerofoil characteristics, eliminating the need for look-up tables of aerofoil behaviour. The method is also extended to serve as an optimal propeller design tool. Comparisons of the approach with experiment are presented for validation as an analysis tool. Use of the theory as a design tool is also demonstrated through contrast with an existing blade design methodology.
