Hydrodynamic performance of a rim-driven thruster improved with gap geometry adjustment
The hubless rim-driven thruster (RDT) has become increasingly interesting for ship propulsion. Gap flow has been proven as the main feature of RDT that cannot be simply neglected. In this study, based on a classical hubless RDT, the effects of the gap geometry are studied by adjusting its axial pass...
