  2. Advance ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_ratio

    The advance ratio is critical for determining the efficiency of a propeller. At different advance ratios, the propeller may produce more or less thrust. Engineers use this ratio to optimize the design of the propeller and the engine, ensuring that the vehicle operates efficiently at its intended cruising speed, see propeller theory.

  3. Propeller theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propeller_theory

    The essence of the actuator-disc theory is that if the slip is defined as the ratio of fluid velocity increase through the disc to vehicle velocity, the Froude efficiency is equal to 1/(slip + 1). [2] Thus a lightly loaded propeller with a large swept area can have a high Froude efficiency.

    Cyclorotor before installation on small-scale cyclogyro. A cyclorotor, cycloidal rotor, cycloidal propeller or cyclogiro, is a fluid propulsion device that converts shaft power into the acceleration of a fluid using a rotating axis perpendicular to the direction of fluid motion.

    Contra-rotating propellers Contra-rotating propellers on the Rolls-Royce Griffon-powered P-51XR Mustang Precious Metal at the 2014 Reno Air Races. Aircraft equipped with contra-rotating propellers (CRP) [1] coaxial contra-rotating propellers, or high-speed propellers, apply the maximum power of usually a single piston engine or turboprop engine to drive a pair of coaxial propellers in contra ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_element_theory

    This is a two-bladed propeller 3 ft. in diameter, with a uniform geometrical pitch of 2.1 ft. (or a pitch-diameter ratio of 0.7). The blades have standard propeller sections based on the R.A.F-6 airfoil (Fig. 6), and the blade widths, thicknesses, and angles are as given in the first part of Table I.

  7. Mechanical advantage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage

    For a toothed belt drive, the number of teeth on the sprocket can be used. For friction belt drives the pitch radius of the input and output pulleys must be used. The mechanical advantage of a pair of a chain drive or toothed belt drive with an input sprocket with N A teeth and the output sprocket has N B teeth is given by
