    Rotax 503 gear replacement

    Hi, For my motorglider I acquired a 58x36 2 bladed propeller. According to calculations I was given with it it should produce about 756N (roughly 165lbs of thrust). The engine will easily overrew if not monitored even on the ground. I was looking into official recommended prop sizes for my...

First I called aircraft spruce and was transferred to a tech that could...

    "slowdown" or "blockage" in prop design

    I have been a heretic on this subject for quite a while. Most prop designers compensate for "slowdown" of the inbound stream resulting from the body behind the tractor prop (prop in front of cowl). I think that this is very poorly understood and that the designers are missing a lot. This post...

    Under-camber in Propellers?

    When I had a boat + 2 boys, the fellow at the propeller rebuilding shop mentioned "do you want to cup this prop". Sorry, I don't know what your talking about. He then said it would improve my take-off without downsizing the pitch which it did. I can't remember whether top end WOT changed if it...

    Optimal Propeller design, using particle-swarm-optimization - anyone want to join in?

    I've "wasted" 4 months writing code that's able to automatically improve things (in this case - airfoils), and found that I'm able to create airfoils that XFoil suggests will perform 200% better than the real (existing) ones I've scanned in and compared (I've got a 3D scanner). I'm keen to...

    Batch-starting Xfoil & how to account for scale?

    I'm looking to "search" for an ideal set of airfoils for use in a Prop, using a genetic algorithm, and to 3D-Mill the results to compare prediction with reality. I've got the shop setup, and I'm an ace programmer, but I'm having a bit of trouble working out how to manage the "unit chord" idea...

    Propeller design and characteristics

    I am interested in designing a propeller, but cannot find much programs that can simulate propeller performances. I have seen programs like Javafoil before, but it has limited number of deviations and airfoils. Does anyone know of any programs where I can change the properties of the...
