    Hi,

    I want to carry out analysis for cavitation around the propeller blade of a ship. can you please share the availability of blade geometry.
    It will be very help full to me.

    Use a Wageningen B-Series propeller, the shape data in all the textbooks.

    Hi,
    I am new to this domain.
    can you give some books name.

    If any site address is given it will be added advantage.
    Since books may or may not be available in my region.

    with regards

    Principles of Naval Architecture by SNAME has the development and I also believe Basic Ship Theory by Rawston and Tupper has it but I don't have a copy right here to check. You may be able to find it on the internet, but a quick search has nothing jump out at me. When you do do the development, you will need to come up with your own wake adapation along with rake and skew to get an optimum prop. But if you are trying to model cavitation, you're going to need to do that anyway.

    Santosh I might get one from my friends, just wait a bit.
    Or you can get a NACA section - it is what my friends used in their project.
    Doing Fluent, huh?
