TRADE-OFFS IN SUB-CAVITATING PROPELLER DESIGN

A general account of the present state-of-the-art of the selection of design parameters which minimize or control the cavitation performance of marine propellers. The various trade-offs, or compromises, in the selection of the design parameters are discussed.
