Abstract
The cavitation performance of a seven-biaded, highly
skewed nropeller for a Naval auxiliary (AO-177) is
evaluated using lifting surface numerical hydrodynamic
methods. An important contribution to accurate predition
of cavitation performance is shown to be an accurate model
of the effective wake.
