TUD-XPROP-S propeller geometry
- 1. Delft University of Technology
Description
This file contains geometrical (CAD) models of Delft University of Technology's TUD-XPROP-S propeller. This six-bladed, 8”-propeller can be used for the validation of numerical tools because experimental data sets are available (shared separately).
Separate CAD models are provided for the original geometry used in wind-tunnel experiments, and for simplified geometries suggested for numerical (CFD) analyses. Models are provided for two blade-pitch angles. The CAD files are available upon request and are intended for non-commercial use.
The aerodynamic performance of the propeller is described in the following publication:
