Expanded or Developed Blade Area of Propeller Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Expanded or Developed Blade Area of a Propeller = (Waterline Length of a Vessel*Vessel Beam)/0.838*Area Ratio
Ap = (lwl*B)/0.838*Ar
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Expanded or Developed Blade Area of a Propeller - (Measured in Square Meter) - Expanded or Developed Blade Area of a Propeller refers to the surface area of the propeller blades when they are "unwrapped" and laid flat on a plane.
Waterline Length of a Vessel - (Measured in Meter) - Waterline Length of a Vessel is the length of a ship or boat at the level where it sits in the water.
Vessel Beam - (Measured in Meter) - Vessel Beam refers to the width of a vessel, such as a ship or boat, measured at its widest point.
Area Ratio - Area Ratio is a parameter used to describe the proportion of a specific area relative to another reference area.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Waterline Length of a Vessel: 7.32 Meter --> 7.32 Meter No Conversion Required
Vessel Beam: 2 Meter --> 2 Meter No Conversion Required
Area Ratio: 1.16 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ap = (lwl*B)/0.838*Ar --> (7.32*2)/0.838*1.16
Evaluating ... ...
Ap = 20.2653937947494
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
20.2653937947494 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
20.2653937947494 20.26539 Square Meter <-- Expanded or Developed Blade Area of a Propeller

Mooring Forces Calculators

Coefficient of Drag for Winds Measured at 10 m given Drag Force due to Wind
​ Go Coefficient of Drag = Drag Force/(0.5*Air Density*Projected Area of the Vessel*Wind Speed at Height of 10 m^2)
Projected Area of Vessel above Waterline given Drag Force due to Wind
​ Go Projected Area of the Vessel = Drag Force/(0.5*Air Density*Coefficient of Drag*Wind Speed at Height of 10 m^2)
Mass Density of Air given Drag Force due to Wind
​ Go Air Density = Drag Force/(0.5*Coefficient of Drag*Projected Area of the Vessel*Wind Speed at Height of 10 m^2)
Drag Force due to Wind
​ Go Drag Force = 0.5*Air Density*Coefficient of Drag*Projected Area of the Vessel*Wind Speed at Height of 10 m^2

Important Formulas of Mooring Forces Calculators

Undamped Natural Period of Vessel
​ Go Undamped Natural Period of a Vessel = 2*pi*(sqrt(Virtual Mass of the Ship/Effective Spring Constant))
Individual Stiffness of Mooring Line
​ Go Individual Mooring Line Stiffness = Axial Tension or Load on a Mooring Line/Elongation in the Mooring Line
Mass of Vessel given Virtual Mass of Vessel
​ Go Mass of a Vessel = Virtual Mass of the Ship-Mass of Vessel due to Inertial Effects
Virtual Mass of Vessel
​ Go Virtual Mass of the Ship = Mass of a Vessel+Mass of Vessel due to Inertial Effects

Expanded or Developed Blade Area of Propeller Formula

Expanded or Developed Blade Area of a Propeller = (Waterline Length of a Vessel*Vessel Beam)/0.838*Area Ratio
Ap = (lwl*B)/0.838*Ar

What causes Skin Friction?

Skin friction drag is caused by the viscosity of fluids and is developed from laminar drag to turbulent drag as a fluid moves on the surface of an object. Skin friction drag is generally expressed in terms of the Reynolds number, which is the ratio between inertial force and viscous force.
