Wind tunnel tests were conducted on a shrouded propeller | |
model in which the propeller diameter was varied for the | |
purpose of measuring the effects of tip to shroud | |
clearance. The basic model tested contained a four-bladed | |
variable pitch propeller operating within a 0.50 | |
chord/diameter ratio shroud. To assist in studying the | |
effect of annulus area on tip clearance, two models | |
having 0.30 and 0.40 hub/tip diameter ratio centerbodies | |
were tested over roughly the same range of propeller tip | |
clearances. Performance of the models was measured | |
throughout a range of advance ratios from zero to roughly | |
2.20 at several propeller blade pitch settings at zero | |
angle of attack only. Results are presented in the form | |
of force and power coefficients and efficiency varying | |
with propeller tip clearance and rotational speed for | |
forward and static flight conditions. | |
