A new R&D project of similar purpose now gives PropExpert the ability to reliably handle propellers with a pitch-to-diameter ratio as high as 2.0, expanding the applicability of PropExpert to very high-pitch propellers. One recent project improved the prediction of thrust and power for high-BAR Gawn-style propellers.
Hydrocomp propcad 2016 software#
HydroComp has an active in-house Research & Development program to advance the accuracy of HydroComp’s software products. Supporting the performance prediction of the MAU in PropExpert is the corresponding new geometric models for both the MAU and MAUw propellers in the HydroComp PropCad® geometric modeling software.
Hydrocomp propcad 2016 series#
The series supports propeller with 3 to 6 blades with a broad range of blade area and pitch ratios. Similar in character to the B Series propeller (of European origin), the MAU is generally used for commercial, workboat, and motoryacht applications. The 2016 version offers new propeller styles, an updated towing analysis, and improvements for fast high-pitch applications.Ī popular style of propeller in Asia for many years, the MAU propeller – and its MAUw variant with pressure-side “washback” – is now available in PropExpert. It is used for application sizing and performance assessment by manufacturers and distributors of marine propellers, engines and transmissions. Employed by more than 250 professionals in 40+ countries, it was developed to provide a reliable technical tool for the propeller sales process. Application engineering tools from HydroComp aid in selecting proper engine and transmission models and characteristics.HydroComp PropExpert is the industry’s most widely used propeller sizing tool for inboard-driven workboats and pleasure craft. Drive Drive equipment encompasses the engines, motors, and transmissions that provide energy for the propulsor to do its work.Our software is key for selecting and designing top-performing propulsors. They provide the thrust to move the vessel and use the power developed by the drive. Propulsor Propulsors (including propellers, waterjets, and others) are the central element of the Vessel-Propulsor-Drive system.NavCad is ideal to capture system performance for ship design and analysis – from concept through post-delivery. Vessel All vessel types share a Vessel-Propulsor-Drive system model.
Propulsion Equipment Sales Sales and marketing teams from around the world confidently use HydroComp tools to determine the proper product that fits their client’s application and requirements.Propeller Manufacturing Propeller designers, builders, and sales staff all rely on HydroComp tools for competitive advantage, superior products, and satisfied customers.Naval Architecture Our products are utilized for hydrodynamic analysis, propulsion system design, and evaluation of operational performance for a wide range of ships, boats, and other marine vehicles.
