THE INFLUENCE OF AXIAL LOCATION OF PROPELLERS IN A TANDEM CO-ROTATING PROPELLER SET ON THEIR HYDRODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTIC

Investigations showed that the hydrodynamic characteristics of the front and rear propellers in a tandem co-rotating propeller set are closely related to the velocity field induced by these propellers. Cavitation patterns as affected by the axial distance between the propellers were also studied.
