Abstract—

A propeller is a type of fan fan that transmits power by converting rotational rotational motion into thrust thrust.. A pressure difference is produced between the forward and rear surfaces of the airfoil airfoil-shaped -shaped blade, and a fluid (such as air or water) is accelerated behind the blade. Propeller dynamics can be modelled by both Bernoulli's principle and Newton's third law law.. A marine propeller is sometimes colloquially known as a screw propeller or screw.

At the beginning of the 19th century, screw propulsion was considered a strictly second-rate means of moving a ship through the water. However, it was during this century that screw propulsion development got underway. In 1802, Colonel John Stevens built and experimented with a single-screw, and later a twin-screw, steam-driven boat. Unfortunately, due to a lack of interest, his ideas were not accepted

The credit for the invention of the screw propeller narrows down to two men, Francis Petit Smith and John Ericsson. In 1836, Smith and Ericsson obtained patents for screw propellers, marking the start of modern development. Ericsson's patent covered a contra-rotating bladed wheel, as well as twin-screw and single-screw installations. Ericsson's propeller design took advantage of many of the unique benefits of the bladed wheel. With the wheel, it was possible to obtain the increased thrust of a large number of

encountered in engineering analysis. In the FEM, a complex region defining a continuum is discretised into simple geometric shapes called elements. The properties and the governing relationships are assumed over these elements and expressed mathematically in terms of unknown values at specific points in the elements called nodes. An assembly process is used to link the individual elements to the linked system. When the effects of loads and boundary conditions are considered, a set of linear or nonlinear algebraic equations is usually obtained. Solution

SolidWorks Flow Simulation 2010 is a fluid flow analysis add-in package that is available forSolidWorks in order to obtain solutions to the full Navier-Stokes equations that govem the motion of fluids. Other packages that can be added to SolidWorks include SolidWorks Motion and SolidWorks Simulation. A fluid flow analysis using Flow Simulation involves a number of basic steps th at are shown

For the turbulence parameters you can choose between speci[ing the turbulence intensity and length or the turbulence energy and dissipation (k-e turbulence model). The boundary layer is set to either laminar or turbulent. You can also specify velocity and thermal boundary layer thickness for the inlet velocity boundary condition as well as speciry the core velocity and temperature. For the real wall boundary condition you can speciry the wall roughness together with wall temperature and heat transfer coefficient. The real wall also has an option for motion in the form of translational or angular velocity. CHOOSING GOALS:

The global goal is based on parameter values determined everywhere in the flow field whereas a point goal is related to a specific point inside the computational domain. Surface goals are determined on specific surfaces and volume goals are determined within a specific subset of the computational domain as specified by the user. Finally, equation goals are defined by mathematical expressions. Table is showing 48 different parameters that can be chosen by the different types of
