The Effect of Stator Parameters on Performance of Ducted Propeller with Pre-swirl Stators

Abstract

Abstract: The turbulent characteristics of ducted propeller with pre-swirl stators were simulated numerically and the hydrodynamic performance was analyzed by RNG (ReNormalisation Group) k-ε viscous model. Compared with experimental and potential data, the numerical results are accurate and efficient. Furthermore open water performance of propulsion with different setting angle, section thickness and number of stator blades were predicted numerically. The effect of geometrical parameters on hydrodynamic performance was analyzed.

Key words: ducted propeller, pre-swirl stators, setting angle of stators, efficiency
