2. Current meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_meter

   Mechanical current meters are mostly based on counting the rotations of a propeller and are thus rotor current meters. A mid-20th-century realization is the Ekman current meter which drops balls into a container to count the number of rotations.

3. Axial-flow pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial-flow_pump

   An axial-flow pump for industrial use. An axial-flow pump, or AFP, is a common type of pump that essentially consists of a propeller (an axial impeller) in a pipe.The propeller can be driven directly by a sealed motor in the pipe or by electric motor or petrol/diesel engines mounted to the pipe from the outside or by a right-angle drive shaft that pierces the pipe.

4. Pressure head - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_head

   The meter is "read" as a differential pressure head in centimeters or inches of water. The venturi meter and manometer is a common type of flow meter which can be used in many fluid applications to convert differential pressure heads into volumetric flow rate , linear fluid speed , or mass flow rate using Bernoulli's principle .

5. Propeller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller

   Typically in smaller (less than 10 hp or 7.5 kW) and older engines, a narrow shear pin through the drive shaft and propeller hub transmits the power of the engine at normal loads. The pin is designed to shear when the propeller is put under a load that could damage the engine. After the pin is sheared the engine is unable to provide propulsive ...

6. Marine thruster - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_thruster

   A marine thruster consists of a propeller or impeller which may be encased in some kind of tunnel or ducting that directs the flow of water to produce a resultant force intended to obtain movement in the desired direction or resist forces which would cause unwanted movement.
