Abstract

The main objective of the paper is to investigate the effect of mesh number and different turbulent models on numerical simulation of a marine propeller. The analyzed propeller is at the following design condition: The diameter of 3,65 m; speed of 200 rpm; average pitch of 2,459 m, boss ratio of 0,1730. The first stage involves the mesh generation and refinement on domain of the designed propeller. The second stage deals with the identification of initial and boundary conditions of the mesh-equipped module. In the final stage, the authors give the hydrodynamic performance of the propeller and various results are calculated to examine effect of those factors on simulation results.
