In this webinar, PropCad Senior Design Engineer, Adam Kaplan, will demonstrate the new CAD file import in PropCad Premium 2018. This new utility helps propeller designers and manufacturers…
Tunnel thrusters are an invaluable asset for maneuvering and docking. But how do they really function? Did you know that inlet and discharge geometry can be as important as the thruster propeller itself…
Did you know that the pitch of a propeller can be modified? This process – half art form, half science – provides us some flexibility for correcting performance problems or even re-using propellers…
Tugs, trawlers, and other workboats require the ability to generate thrust for more than their own transit. They need supplemental thrust – known as “towpull” – to pull nets or push other boats. More…
This is a webinar focused on the interaction between propeller hydrodynamics and shafting calculations. Many naval architects and propulsion equipment professionals know the basics of shaft…
While the primary objective of most sailing vessel designs is performance under sail, auxiliary propulsion is also an important consideration. Often, the heaviest non-structural components on a sailing…
Sea trials are how we document and validate that a vessel conforms to its expected performance. But we can also extract knowledge from a sea trial for design purposes. Do you focus on a particular vessel…
