LOADS AND RESULTS ON CFD PROPELER ANALYSIS Șef lucr. dr. ing. Adrian POPA, Șef lucr. dr. ing. Ionuț Cristian SCURTU Academia Navală Mircea cel Bătrân, Constanța, România REZUMAT. Pentru a putea determina încărcările și forța de împingere generate de elicea navală la turații cuprinse intre 100 si 400 rpm se va utiliza softul Ansys. Componenta CFX utilizată va genera rapoartele caracteristice de viteză, presiune și turbulență pentru domeniul fluid studiat. Orice model de elice se poate verifica in o astfel de analiză in etapa de proiectare pentru intelegerea fenomenelor asociate elicilor precum cavitatie si randamente mecanice. Cuvinte cheie: elice, Analiza CFD, Analiză navală, soft comercial Ansys.. ABSTRACT. The Ansys software will be used to determine the loads and thrust generated by the propeller at speeds between 100 and 400 rpm. The CFX component used will generate the characteristic velocity, pressure and turbulence ratios for the studied fluid field. Any propeller model can be verified in such an analysis at the design stage to understand the phenomena associated with propellers such as cavitation and mechanical efficiency. Keywords: propeller, CFD analysis, naval analysis, commercial software Ansys. 1. PROBLEM DESCRIPTION AND INTRODUCTION 1. Ansys Workbench modeling is presented below. between 100 and 400 rpm.
