Year: 2000 Language: english Author: Claus D. Simonsen Publisher: Technical University of Denmark. Department of Naval Architecture and Offshore Engineering, ISH ISBN: 8789502272 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 236 Description: The flow field behind a ship in motion is disturbed by pressure and velocity fluctuations induced from the hull. Consequently, a propeller working behind the ship experiences a highly inhomogeneous inflow. This causes a varying load on the propeller blade during one revolution, resulting in a local pressure drop around the blade. Depending on the operation conditions, e.g.,submergence of the propeller shaft or rotational speed, the pressure sags below vapour pressure and cavitation, i.e.,vapour pockets in the liquid, can be observed at the propeller. When again entering high pressure regions, the cavities collapse extremely rapidly and may cause noise and vibration, transferred to the ship‟s hull, and causing erosion on the propeller or the rudder.
