Synopsis
Excerpt from The Resistance and the Proportions of Screw Propellers
About four years ago the writer published a treatise on the Power and Speed of Steam Vessels, showing the method adopted for calculating the indicated horse power required for propelling vessels of different types at any desired speed; by means of Tables and Rules he had, some years previously, prepared for his own use.

The Resistance and the Proportions of Screw Propellers (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the resistance and proportions of screw propellers, explaining the complex problems involved in their calculation and design. The author, a consulting marine engineer, shares their expertise gained over many years of experience. Through a series of formulae and examples, the book demonstrates how to accurately calculate the power required by screw propellers of various proportions. The author emphasizes the importance of determining the minimum effective horsepower needed to efficiently propel a vessel and provides guidance on how to achieve this. By comparing the calculated power required for the screw propeller with that required for the vessel, one can assess the suitability of the propeller for the intended use. The book also explores the concept of relative resistance, allowing for the comparison of different screw propellers and the determination of the most efficient design. This book is a valuable resource for naval architects, engineers, and anyone interested in the design and optimization of screw propellers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332218660_0
