Call for Papers Call for Papers Proceeding of the Institution of Mechanical Engineering, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science Impact Factor: 1.015 / pic.sagepub.com Special Issue: “Hydrodynamics of Marine Propulsion” Guest Editors: Wei-Xi Huang, Tsinghua University, China Yihong Chen, China Ship Scientific Research Center, China Sangbong Lee, DongA University, Korea Yin Lu Young, University of Michigan, USA Moustafa Abdel-Maksoud, Hamburg University of Technology, Germany From a single paddle used in sculling to the Archimedes’ screw to modern propellers, marine propul- sion has experienced a long evolution. The world's first seagoing steamship with a screw propeller, SS Archimedes, and the world's first screw-propelled steamship to cross the Atlantic Ocean, SS Great Britain, were built in the first half of the 19th century. The screw propeller then gradually over- whelmed the paddle steamer and remains the main propulsion method for ship and underwater vehicles today. Various propeller theories were developed to guide design, e.g. momentum theory and blade element theory, as pioneered by W.J.M. Rankine, W. Froude and others. In recent dec- ades, due to the development of computational and experimental technologies, hydrodynamic performance and the associated acoustic properties of the marine propulsion are considered in detail to optimise design and explore new concepts for marine propulsion. This Special Issue aims to highlight recent advances in theoretical, numerical and experimental methods for modelling marine propulsion, understanding of the underlying flow physics and noise generation mechanism, and the optimization approaches for improving hydrodynamic performance suppressing the noise. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following studies re- lated to the marine propulsion: Theoretical models for force and noise predictions Turbulence modelling, including RANS, LES and RANS/LES hybrid approaches Experimental technologies for flow field visualization and force measurement Characteristics and dynamics of flow structures Cavitation and erosion Hydrodynamic performance Fluid-structure interaction Propeller/rudder/hull interaction Noise/vibration generation and control Optimization approaches New concept designs Authors interested in contributing to this special issue are advised to submit their papers via the dedicated submission site: https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/jmes.

  • Propeller Operation and Malfunctions Basic Familiarization for Flight Crews
    PROPELLER OPERATION AND MALFUNCTIONS BASIC FAMILIARIZATION FOR FLIGHT CREWS INTRODUCTION The following is basic material to help pilots understand how the propellers on turbine engines work, and how they sometimes fail. Some of these failures and malfunctions cannot be duplicated well in the simulator, which can cause recognition difficulties when they happen in actual operation. This text is not meant to replace other instructional texts. However, completion of the material can provide pilots with additional understanding of turbopropeller operation and the handling of malfunctions. GENERAL PROPELLER PRINCIPLES Propeller and engine system designs vary widely. They range from wood propellers on reciprocating engines to fully reversing and feathering constant- speed propellers on turbine engines. Each of these propulsion systems has the similar basic function of producing thrust to propel the airplane, but with different control and operational requirements. Since the full range of combinations is too broad to cover fully in this summary, it will focus on a typical system for transport category airplanes - the constant speed, feathering and reversing propellers on turbine engines. Major propeller components The propeller consists of several blades held in place by a central hub. The propeller hub holds the blades in place and is connected to the engine through a propeller drive shaft and a gearbox. There is also a control system for the propeller, which will be discussed later. Modern propellers on large turboprop airplanes typically have 4 to 6 blades. Other components typically include: The spinner, which creates aerodynamic streamlining over the propeller hub. The bulkhead, which allows the spinner to be attached to the rest of the propeller.

  • The Propulsion of Sea Ships – in the Past, Present and Future –
    The Propulsion of Sea Ships – in the Past, Present and Future – (Speech by Bernd Röder on the occasion of the VHT General Meeting on 11.12.2008) To prepare for today’s topic, more specifically for the topic: ship propulsion of the future, I did what every reasonable person would have done in my situation if he should have a look into the future – I dug out our VHT crystal ball. As you know, our crystal ball is a reliable and cost-efficient resource which we have been using for a long time with great suc- cess. Among other things, we’ve been using it to provide you with the repair costs or their duration or the probable claims experience of a policy, etc. or to create short-term damage statistics, as well. So, I asked the crystal ball: What does ship propulsion of the future look like? Every future and all statistics lie in the crystal ball I must, however, admit that what I saw there was somewhat irritating, and it led me to only the one conclusion – namely, that we’re taking a look into the very distant future at a time in which humanity has not only used up all of the oil reserves but also the entire wind. This time, we’re not really going to get any further with the crystal ball. Ship propulsion of the future or 'back to the roots'? But, sometimes it helps to have a look into the past to be able to say something about the fu- ture. According to the principle, draw a line connecting the distant past to today and simply extend it into the future.

  • Marine Propellers
    2.016 Hydrodynamics Reading #10 2.016 Hydrodynamics Prof. A.H. Techet Marine Propellers Today, conventional marine propellers remain the standard propulsion mechanism for surface ships and underwater vehicles. Modifications of basic propeller geometries into water jet propulsors and alternate style thrusters on underwater vehicles has not significantly changed how we determine and analyze propeller performance. We still need propellers to generate adequate thrust to propel a vessel at some design speed with some care taken in ensuring some “reasonable” propulsive efficiency. Considerations are made to match the engine’s power and shaft speed, as well as the size of the vessel and the ship’s operating speed, with an appropriately designed propeller. Given that the above conditions are interdependent (ship speed depends on ship size, power required depends on desired speed, etc.) we must at least know a priori our desired operating speed for a given vessel. Following this we should understand the basic relationship between ship power, shaft torque and fuel consumption. Power: Power is simply force times velocity, where 1 HP (horsepower, english units) is equal to 0.7457 kW (kilowatt, metric) and 1kW = 1000 Newtons*meters/second. P = F*V (1.1) Effective Horsepower (EHP) is the power required to overcome a vessel’s total resistance at a given speed, not including the power required to turn the propeller or operate any machinery (this is close to the power required to tow a vessel). version 3.0 updated 8/30/2005 -1- ©2005 A. Techet 2.016 Hydrodynamics Reading #10 Indicated Horsepower (IHP) is the power required to drive a ship at a given speed, including the power required to turn the propeller and to overcome any additional friction inherent in the system.

  • 01 Why Did the United States Enter World War I
    DBQ Why did the United States Enter World War I? DIRECTIONS: Read all the following documents and answer the questions in full sentences on a separate sheet of paper. Label each set of questions with the title and number of the document first. Be sure that your answers include specific outside information, details, and analysis. You may consult your class notes, homework, or textbook for help with any question. Whatever you do not finish in class you will have for homework. Document 1 The Lusitania, The Arabic Pledge, The Sussex Pledge and Unrestricted Submarine Warfare On May 7, 1915, a German U-boat sank the British ship Lusitania off the coast of Ireland. The Germans attacked the Lusitania without warning, leading to the deaths of 1,198 people, including 128 Americans. President Woodrow Wilson, outraged at Germany’s violation of the United States’ neutral rights, threatened to end diplomacy with Germany. Still, many Americans opposed war, and a large number of German-Americans favored the Central Powers. Germany continued submarine warfare. In August of 1915, another U-boat torpedoed the British passenger liner Arabic, killing approximately forty passengers and crew, including two Americans. Afraid that the U.S. might now enter the war on the side of the Allied Powers, the German government issued the Arabic Pledge in 1915. Germany promised that it would warn non-military ships thirty minutes before it sank them. This would allow passengers and crew time to escape safely on lifeboats. Germany, though, broke the Arabic Pledge in March of 1916, when a U-boat torpedoed the French ship Sussex.

  • Low and High Speed Propellers for General Aviation - Performance Potential and Recent Wind Tunnel Test Results
    NASA Technical Memorandum 8 1745 Low and High Speed Propellers for General Aviation - Performance Potential and Recent Wind Tunnel Test Results Robert J. Jeracki and Glenn A. Mitchell Lewis Research Center Cleveland, Ohio i I Prepared for the ! National Business Aircraft Meeting sponsored by the Society of Automotive Engineers Wichita, Kansas, April 7-10, 1981 LOW AND HIGH SPEED PROPELLERS FOR GENERAL AVIATION - PERFORMANCE POTENTIAL AND RECENT WIND TUNNEL TEST RESULTS by Robert J. Jeracki and Glenn A. Mitchell National Aeronautics and Space Administration Lewis Research Center Cleveland, Ohio 441 35 THE VAST MAJORlTY OF GENERAL-AVIATION AIRCRAFT manufactured in the United States are propel- ler powered. Most of these aircraft use pro- peller designs based on technology that has not changed significantlv since the 1940's and early 1950's. This older technology has been adequate; however, with the current world en- ergy shortage and the possibility of more stringent noise regulations, improved technol- ogy is needed. Studies conducted by NASA and industry indicate that there are a number of improvements in the technology of general- aviation (G.A.) propellers that could lead to significant energy savings. New concepts like blade sweep, proplets, and composite materi- als, along with advanced analysis techniques have the potential for improving the perform- ance and lowering the noise of future propel- ler-powererd aircraft that cruise at lower speeds. Current propeller-powered general- aviation aircraft are limited by propeller compressibility losses and limited power out- put of current engines to maximum cruise speeds below Mach 0.6. The technology being developed as part of NASA's Advanced Turboprop Project offers the potential of extending this limit to at least Mach 0.8.

Printed by Chalmers Reproservice Gothenburg, Sweden 2015 Marine Propeller Optimisation - Strategy and Algorithm Development Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy FLORIAN VESTING Department of Shipping and Marine Technology Division of Marine Technology Chalmers University of Technology Abstract Recent trends in the shipping industry, e.g., expanded routing in ecologically sensitive areas and emission regulations, have sharpened the perception of efficient propeller designs. Currently, propeller efficiency, estimated fuel consumption and, more often, propeller-radiated noise are parameters that steer the business Zeitgeist. However, a practical propeller design that performs reliably and sufficiently throughout the lifetime of a ship requires numerous limitations, which are typically in conflict with the objectives. This requires judgement by experienced propeller designers to make decisions during the design process. To be ahead of competitors, a propeller designer needs to present a better design for a specific purpose, in a shorter time and at lower costs than the adversary. The current challenge for propeller designers is to develop a propeller that fulfils all the requirements and expectations within a short time frame.
