Hi,
I need to analyze flow through propeller. I am new to CFD. Also, the speed is very high about 2500 rpm.
Any help is much appreciated.
Hi,
In order to determine the best solution for your propeller, could you tell us the diameter and maximum tip speed. The free stream speed and advance ratio of the propeller would help too. If the tip speed exceeds Mach 0.3, then compressible flow should be used.
However, please note that some propellers in literature show that the tip speed can sometimes reach Mach 0.7, so you would need to take extra care if this is the case.
Hopefully this helps!
I am analyzing ship propeller. For water jet propulsion. Any help is appreciated
