    Prop series

    To the very best of my knowledge the Troost series became part of the Wageningen Series (or was a perdecessor of the former). You will find heaps of data on this matter if not exactly what you are looking for in the little green book "The Wageningen Propeller Series" by G. Kuiper (1992). ISBN 90-900 7247-0 which is MARIN publication 92-001. Check marin.nl or support@marin.nl. The book contains a nice little introduction about general propeller characteristics and tons of opern water data. To make things even better (and if you don't want to spend hours fiddeling around with the diagrams) a very simple and straigt forward software containing the diagrams is available as well.

    Cheers
