Professional Learning
Providing education credit compliance. Our HYDROCourses were designed to provide clear and consistent content and to facilitate easy-to-understand delivery of typically complex topics, such as engine power curves, sea trials for prediction of performance, pushboats and ducted propellers, repitching and propeller CAD. These courses will sharpen your existing proficiencies – or even build new skills – while providing practical and insightful knowledge. Explore key subjects about hydrodynamics and propellers in a flexible on-demand format, so learning is at your own pace and convenience.
Each course takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.
This certificate course is valuable for propulsion equipment vendors and vessel designers. This course will introduce the hydrodynamics of propeller nozzles and the implications of different nozzle styles.
Propeller Repitching
$79.00
This certificate course is appropriate for propeller repair shops, propulsion equipment vendors, naval architects, and boat builders seeking repitch knowledge.
This certificate course will review the basic concepts for preparing propeller CAD models. It’s a great introduction for all marine engineers, researchers, and manufacturers working with propeller data, drawings, and CAD models.
This certificate course will review how a full engine power curve is needed to properly evaluate vessel performance in off-design and dynamic conditions.
This certificate course will review the different ways to utilize and validate historical trial data for the prediction of performance during new design.
This certificate course will review important characteristics of pushboats propellers and is vital for those involved with inland waterways transport systems.
