Download or read book Propeller Aerodynamics written by Frank Hitchens and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical aerodynamics is a compulsory study subject for pilots at all levels of experience. Propeller Aerodynamics is a subset of this fascinating subject. Propellers have their unique aerodynamic terminology, forces and handling requirements, knowledge of which all pilots must be aware of to safely handle the aircraft they are flying. Incorrect propeller handling can cause damage to the aircraft and reduce performance efficiency. Most aerodynamic text books only give a brief view of propeller aerodynamics; however this book Propeller Aerodynamics delves more deeply into this subject. The book covers the history and operation of aircraft propellers, prop pitch, thrust, efficiency, aircraft stability, prop forces, constant-speed units and more. This is all essential reading for the pilot progressing to more advanced high-performance aircraft.

Download or read book Investigation of the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Model Wing propeller Combination and of the Wing and Propeller Separately at Angles of Attack Up to 90 written by John W. Draper and published by . This book was released on 1954 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results of an investigation conducted in the Langley 300 mph 7- 10-foot wind tunnel for the purpose of determining the aerodynamic characteristics of a model wing-propeller combination, and of the wing and propeller separately at angles of attack up to 90 degrees. The tests covered thrust coefficients corresponding to free-stream velocities from zero forward speed to the normal range of cruising speeds. The results indicate that increasing the thrust coefficient increases the angle of attack for maximum lift and greatly diminishes the usual reduction in lift above the angle of attack for maximum lift.

Book excerpt: Summary: A technical method is given for calculating the axial interference velocity of a propeller. The method involves the use of certain weight functions P, Q, and F. Numerical values for the weight functions are given for two-blade, three-blade, and six-blade propellers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author: Makes minimum use of nondimensional coefficients, and takes great care to define them, and to show their function, their use in the industry and their physical meaning. Contrast this with a typical exposition of the "momentum method," in which the reader is lost in C sub this and C sub that after the first page. Uses the technique of dimensional analysis in explaining the operation of propellers. Explains all the theoretical treatments relevant to the task at hand, shows their relation to one another and gives examples contrasting the procedure and the solutions obtainable with each theory. Each chapter has relevant references listed at the end.In the helicopter section, makes use of propeller theory and gives a clear exposition of the special problems of helicopters. Here again, instead of spending pages expounding the details of theory, he states the results, explains their limitations, and again offers examples. And if that were not enough, he covers numerical procedures for solving problems, which means that this sixty-year-old book is a good basis for digital computer programs or MathCAD worksheets solving the relevant problems. In fact, the computation forms published in the book can easily be converted to spreadsheets.It is true that the book is not a comprehensive or encyclopedic treatment of helicopters. The problem of vibration is not covered, for example. Thus, this text will be useful in preliminary design, but a more detailed text will be needed for more advanced work.
