Propeller of a ship - construction

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on constructing and designing a basic working propeller, with an emphasis on blade construction, angle, pitch, and thickness. The original poster seeks resources, including e-books or websites, for further information on propeller design. A reference to an article on nuclear submarine propellers is provided as a potential resource. Participants are encouraged to share insights and additional resources related to propeller construction. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding design principles for effective propeller functionality.

Hi guys I am into construction things, I have learned to construct many things now i am into propellers so can anyone tell me how to construct/ design a simple basic working propeller.
How to construct the blades, at what angle, pitch thickness, etc etc...
any e-book or site where i can i find information..

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...
I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
