Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a propeller setting a small duct includes a propeller which is mounted on a stern of a ship's hull and a duct which is provided in front of the propeller, and a ship including a propeller setting the small duct.
  • the large duct covering the propeller is called a ducted propeller, and the large duct is handled as a propulsor which is effective when the large duct is integrally formed on the propeller and a propeller loading is high. This is because that interference between the propeller and the duct is large, and it is more rational to handle, as a propulsor, performance into which this interference is taken.
  • the intermediate duct placed in front of the propeller and having a diameter slightly smaller than that of the propeller is handled as an energy-saving device and is not regarded as a propulsor. This is because that interference between the duct and the propeller is not so large, and interference between a ship's hull and the duct is larger than the former interference.
  • a resistance test is carried out in a state where the duct is mounted on the ship's hull. This is based on recognition that the duct is part of the ship's hull.
