    Contra-rotating propellers Contra-rotating propellers on the Rolls-Royce Griffon-powered P-51XR Mustang Precious Metal at the 2014 Reno Air Races. Aircraft equipped with contra-rotating propellers (CRP) [1] coaxial contra-rotating propellers, or high-speed propellers, apply the maximum power of usually a single piston engine or turboprop engine to drive a pair of coaxial propellers in contra ...

  3. Counter-rotating propellers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-rotating_propellers

    The propellers on most conventional twin-engined aircraft turn clockwise (as viewed from behind the engine). Counter-rotating propellers generally turn clockwise on the left engine and counterclockwise on the right. The advantage of such designs is that counter-rotating propellers balance the effects of torque and P-factor, meaning that such ...

    A Mark 46 Mod 5A torpedo is inspected aboard a destroyer in April 2005. Contra-rotating propellers have benefits when providing thrust for boats for the same reasons. ABB provided an azimuth thruster for ShinNihonkai Ferries in form of the CRP Azipod, [1] claiming efficiency gains from the propeller (about 10% increase [2]) and a simpler hull design.

  5. Coax-P - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coax-P

    The design has two propellers, each with two composite, ground adjustable blades and uses a 3.7:1 gear box type reduction drive. The two propellers are powered by two meshing and counter-rotating shafts, powered by helical gear wheels running in an oil bath. [1] [3] The gap between and the pitch of the two propellers must be exactly right.

    Counter-rotating propellers. Counter-rotating propellers are sometimes used on twin-engine and multi-engine aircraft with wing-mounted engines. These propellers turn in opposite directions from their counterpart on the other wing to balance out the torque and p-factor effects. They are sometimes referred to as "handed" propellers since there ...

    The eight-bladed scimitar propellers are made from a woven composite material. It is powered by four Europrop TP400-D6 engines rated at 8,250 kW (11,000 hp) each. [88] The TP400-D6 engine is the most powerful turboprop engine in the West to enter operational use. [60] A400M showing its counter-rotating propellers on each wing

    Animation of the engine as it would have been seen looking at the front of the aircraft. The Siemens-Halske Sh.III was an 11-cylinder counter rotary engine. [1] The Sh.III's propeller and cylinders were connected, these rotated anti-clockwise when viewed from the front of the aircraft (clockwise when viewed from the pilot's seat) while the crankshaft rotated clockwise.

    The PA-31 series was manufactured under licence in several countries from kits of parts supplied by Piper. [20] [21] Chincul SACAIFI in Argentina assembled most of the series as the PA-A-31, PA-A-31-325, PA-A-31P and PA-A-31-350 and Aero Industrial Colombiana SA (AICSA) in Colombia assembled PA-31, PA-31-325 and PA-31-350 aircraft.
