- Summary:
- This report is the second of a series of four on propeller design, and describes the method used to extend the data obtained from tests on a family of thirteen model propellers to include all propellers of the same form likely to be met in practice. This necessitates the development of a method of propeller analysis which when used to calculate the powers and efficiencies gives results which check the tests throughout their range. Airfoil characteristics are derived from the model propeller tests themselves and used in the single section method of analysis (given in the first of this series, N.A.C.A. Technical Note. No. 235) to calculate the powers and efficiencies for propellers outside of the test range.
