Jörg 29 Report post Posted August 2, 2016 We recently created a parametric model of a surface-piercing propeller for optimizing the blade shape with CFD, see the attachment. I am now curious whether there are any other users that have been modeling such a propeller in CAESES or CAESES Free? It would be great to exchange some ideas and information about this interesting application. What is your experience with these types of propellers?What are the challenges in the initial design stage?Which quantities do you typically optimize when designing such a propeller? Thanks for sharing some thoughts on it. CheersJoerg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
