Abstract

The paper is focused on the design a wake-adapted propeller for a 1200 TEU container ship. The aim is to select the main components of the propulsion system: main engine and propeller, to achieve ship propulsive performances. The main objective is to design an optimized propeller and to verify that it is the best available solution. In-house codes based on B Wageningen series and lifting line theory have been used to design the wakeadapted propeller. Numerical investigations have been performed to analyse the hydrodynamic performances of the designed propeller in open water and behind the portcontainer ship hull.
