  2. Toroidal propeller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toroidal_propeller

    A simple 3 blade toroidal propeller. A toroidal propeller is a type of propeller that is ring-shaped with each blade forming a closed loop. The propellers are significantly quieter at audible frequency ranges, between 20 Hz and 20 kHz, while generating comparable thrust to traditional propellers.

  3. Propeller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller

    The blades are shaped so that their rotational motion through the fluid causes a pressure difference between the two surfaces of the blade by Bernoulli's principle which exerts force on the fluid. [2] Most marine propellers are screw propellers with helical blades rotating on a propeller shaft with an approximately horizontal axis. [a]

    Increasing the aspect ratio of the blades reduces drag but the amount of thrust produced depends on blade area, so using high-aspect blades can result in an excessive propeller diameter. A further balance is that using a smaller number of blades reduces interference effects between the blades, but to have sufficient blade area to transmit the ...

  5. Propeller theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_theory

    Lightly loaded propellers for light aircraft and human-powered boats mostly have two blades, motor boats mostly have three blades. The blades are attached to a boss (hub), and while it can be a big boss, it should be as small as the needs of strength allow – with fixed-pitch propellers the blades and boss are usually a single casting.

    A de Havilland 3 blade propeller unit is fitted, along with a "blown" canopy and the laminated bulletproof windscreen and later aerial mast. The brass plate below the external starter plug can be seen on the side engine cowling. Starting in September 1940, IFF equipment was installed. This weighed about 40 lb (18 kg) and could be identified by ...

  7. Blade element theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_element_theory

    This is a two-bladed propeller 3 ft. in diameter, with a uniform geometrical pitch of 2.1 ft. (or a pitch-diameter ratio of 0.7). The blades have standard propeller sections based on the R.A.F-6 airfoil (Fig. 6), and the blade widths, thicknesses, and angles are as given in the first part of Table I.
