Abstract

Dynamic responses of a composite marine propeller in spatially wake were investigated in this paper. A hydroelastic model was developed to identify the response characteristics of the composite propeller blades using a finite element method (FEM) coupled with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. Rotational effects and added mass were considered. A coupled matrix was established and solved by the Newton-Raphson numerical procedure. The dynamic characteristics and responses of the composite blade were calculated and compared with those of the counterpart rigid blade. Effects of various parameters, including the layer lamination and fiber orientation were investigated.
