Description

  • Content Description: Report presenting the magnitude of slipstream contraction, which provides information about the conditions of the ultimate wake. Curves and tables are given for the contraction coefficient of two-blade and four-blade propellers for various values of the advance ratio; the contraction coefficient is defined as the contraction in the diameter of the wake helix in terms of the wake diameter at infinity.
