Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of screw propeller propulsion, a technology that revolutionized marine travel. The author, an expert in the field, traces the evolution of the screw propeller from its ancient origins to its widespread adoption in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He unpacks the complexities of screw propeller design, emphasizing the interplay of key factors like hull form, power, and propeller geometry, all of which contribute to propulsive efficiency. The book explores the critical concepts of thrust deduction and wake gain, two forces that either hinder or enhance the efficiency of the propeller's operation. The author, drawing upon his extensive experience and meticulous research, provides practical methods for designing and optimizing screw propellers, aiming to maximize their performance and efficiency. This book offers a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this vital technology and its role in naval engineering.
