• Assume the roughness is 0 micrometers.
Pressure potential is considered.
o cavitation is in the simulation
Adiabatic wall is used.
The Figure 42 shows the simulated force result for the propeller with all three blades. The
simulation results are based on several calculation cycles. At the beginning, the
simulation has not enough calculation cycles, the results has large error, which shows as
the plot before 10 iterations. After several iterations, the results are much accurate. The
current valuc is the result after many cycles, so it well reflects the final simulation result.
The current value as shown in Figure 42 is 78.8 N.
