Increased interest on the part of the United States in the
exploration and exploitation of the ocean environment has led
to the assignment of diverse missions in this field to the
military. Development of numerous vehicles and weapons systems
and the propulsion units to propel them is required to accomplish
these missions. In this paper, a general classification of
propulsors is established and important performance parameters
are defined. A variety of marine thrust devices is described
and analyzed in detail, and a qualitative comparison of performance
is made. General guidelines are offered for mating propulsors and
vehicles for appropriate applications and particular mission
requirements. The importance of drag reduction is recognized
and various techniques are discussed in an appendix. Since this
paper is intended to serve as a compendium on marine propulsors,
an extensive bibliography has been incorporated.
