Definitions

  • the invention relates to a propeller arrangement, in particular for a propulsion system of a watercraft, for example a ship, comprising a propeller, which is rotatable about a propeller axis.
  • Most marine vehicles include a propulsion system that includes a propeller rotatable about a propeller axis.
  • a propulsion system that includes a propeller rotatable about a propeller axis.
  • Object of the present invention is now to provide a propeller assembly, with which the hub vortex further reduced and the efficiency can thus be further improved.
  • a propeller arrangement in particular for a drive system of a watercraft, comprising a propeller, which is rotatable about a propeller axis, further provided at least one rotor fin is.
  • the rotor fin is expediently designed like a wing and freely rotatable about the propeller axis. Accordingly, the rotor fin is free-rotating or unpowered, that is, it has no separate drive for rotation about the propeller axis, but is optionally driven by the respective prevailing environmental conditions, in particular by the prevailing water flow, for rotation about the propeller axis.
  • the at least one rotor Fin propellerabstrom solution, ie in the outflow of (propeller), arranged.
  • the at least one rotor fin is located in the direction of the ship behind the propeller. This ensures that the outflow of the propeller meets the at least one rotor fin and this is expediently designed such that it is thereby set in rotation.
  • the rotor fin is designed such that it influences the propeller effluent in such a way that the vortex formation in the region of the hub, ie the so-called hub vortex, is reduced.
  • This can be achieved, for example, by the fact that the rotor fin produces a counter-rotation with respect to the twisting in the flow from the propeller in the region of the hub, which then leads to an overall homogenization of the flow of the propeller in the hub region and thus to a more laminar flow.
  • This effect is achieved in particular by the freely rotatable design of the rotor-fin.
  • the invention freely rotatable rotor fin compared to the known from the prior art, fixedly mounted on the hub cap and forcibly mitfitenden with the propeller fins on a variable speed on the configuration of the storage and the flow, for example, the velocity of the flow, Degree of twisting, etc., depends.
  • This results in an improved flow pattern of the propeller exhaust flow in the region of the hub and thus an overall better efficiency.
  • the overall drive power of the propeller is thereby sustainably improved.
  • the rotational speed of the free-rotating at least one rotor-Fins will be lower than that of the propeller. However, this does not necessarily have to be the case in every operating state.

  • the diameter of the circular path of the at least one rotor fin is less than 75%, particularly less than 55% and in particular less than 35% of the diameter of the propeller. If the diameter of the rotor fin were larger and thus the individual rotor fin blades viewed in the radial direction longer, could possibly be a negative effect on the propeller flow and there might be strength problems at least one rotor fin.
  • the rotor fin can basically be made of any suitable material. Preferably, stainless steel or other suitable metal is used to make the rotor fin.
  • any flow guide body which is designed to actively influence the flow to a non-insignificant extent can be used as a rotor fin.
  • the rotor fin may be formed in the form of a fin.
  • the rotor fin may be formed with or without airfoil profile. In training with airfoil, the fin has a pressure and a suction side, wherein then in particular the suction side arcuately arched outward and the pressure side can be formed substantially flat.
  • the profile of the rotor-Fins over the length considered uniform or different.
  • the profile of the rotor-fin may be turned, ie twisted, in itself.
  • the at least one rotor fin has a free end.
