Effect of Propeller-Axis Angle of Attack on Thrust Distribution Over the Propeller Disk in Relation to Wake-Survey Measurement of Thrust
Description:
"Tests were made to investigate the variation of thrust distribution over the propeller disk with angle of pitch of the propeller thrust axis and to determine the disposition and the minimum number of rakes necessary to measure the propeller thrust. The tests were made at a low Mach number for a low and a high blade angle with the propeller operating at three small angles of pitch, and some of the tests were repeated at a higher Mach number. The data obtained show that, for small angles of pitc…
