Aft body flow devices Devices before the propeller Devices at the propeller Devices behind the propeller Combinations of systems

Their purpose is to reduce


losses in the ships wake-axial losses (black) rotational losses in the slipstream (blue) hub vortex losses (green) tip vortex losses (red)

Harmonizes and stabilizes the flow Generates a pre-swirl in counter direction of the propeller rotation Used mostly for slow ships

Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering

Developed by Sumitomo Heavy Industries For slow speed large vessels such as tankers or bulk carriers Savings 5%-8%

Consists of two pairs of flat-plate fins:


one attached in front of the

propeller the other on an afterpart shell ahead of it

Control bilge vortex occurring in flow around the afterpart body 5% energy saving

Tip Rake Propellers Kappel Propellers CLT (Contracted and Loaded Tip) Propellers TVF (Tip Vortex Free) Propellers Propellers with end plates

Tip rake suppresses the formation of tip vortices TR propellers minimize the flow over the tip Improve the efficiency 3%-6% Reduced noise - suitable for submarine applications

No communication between pressure and suction side due to end plates No formation of tip vortices Generation of thrust along the entire blade Improve efficiency 6% - 8%

Fitted to 2000 vessels as of December 2011 5% fuel savings 2% boost of speed Reduces the propeller shaft torque by 3% Elimination of rudder erosion

Nozzles are airfoil shaped rings placed around the propeller An accelerating duct produces positive thrust and increases the efficiency of heavily-loaded propellers (up to 20%) A decelerating duct produces a negative thrust and reduces cavitation & noise The application of a nozzle increases the thrust at relatively low ship speed

Motor housed within the steerable pod Based on pump jet technology Features fixed stator vanes and a nozzle Fuel savings up to 10% over conventional azimuth propulsion

Developed for large sized LNG tankers Suitable for large hulls which generates strong bilge vortex Savings ~12%

There were cases of entire loss of the wheel The more modern approach is to mount the wheel on the rudder horn

Increased efficiency ~ 6% The after propeller is usually smaller in diameter (cavitation) but higher pitch Used extensively in torpedoes Increased shafting complexity, maintenance, cost

Podded contra-rotating propeller (CRP) propulsion

Conventional rudders are placed behind the propeller with a symmetrical cross section about the vertical rudder center plane This arrangement does not consider the fact that the propeller induces a rotational flow that impinges the rudder surface This results in areas of low pressure on the blade that induce cavitation and cause erosion
