"Secrets
of Propeller Design" (ISBN# 0-9780586-0-7) The
(2006) publication "Secrets
of Propeller Design" The "Secrets of Propeller Design" book ("History & Design of Propellers") presents 80 pages & 75 photos/illustrations as a detailed accounting of propeller design history, how the first "screw" applications were invented, and how they led to early ship propulsion. Outlining "How a Propeller Works", parts and functions of a properly designed propeller, including material selection and "advanced propping" techniques, cupping, gearcase design and nosecone application is outlined. Speed prediction formulae and propeller selection methods. This is a "must have" book for serious boaters, designers and enthusiasts that have "a need to know".

History of the very first applications of propeller...like Archimedes' invention of the screw pump, also designed for supplying irrigation water, and the forerunner of the screw propeller. ...and like original drawings by Leonardo da Vinci containing water screws for pumping. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Screw propellers installed in the 1860 era lacked refinement, but their performance exceeded other devices of that time. The paddle wheel was gradually rendered obsolete in seagoing ships, as the screw propeller became the only type of propulsion in ships... | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Modern
day propellers and the art of "advanced propping" is outlined,
including applications of three blade, four blade and five-blade
propellers, properties of aluminum, bronze, stainless steel and even
plastic propellers. Speed prediction formulae and propeller selection methods. |

The hydrodynamic drag of the gear case can be a primary contributor to overall drag. Manufacturers have recently realized the tremendous impact of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics on hull performance. Today outboard and out-drive design has reached a point where model changes are dictated by the design of the gear case | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
