In the North Coastal Region of Central Java, the traditional fi shing boat is a primary object that generates the economics activities of the social community. As an artisanal fi shery, the boats generally adopt the tradition to build technique from their predecessor. Therefore the lack of practice to determine the propeller design which considered the hydrodynamic relation within the boat dimension, hull form geometry and propeller is observed. Presently, there is no a standard propeller design that particularly well designed considering the hull shape geometry for the traditional boat. The aim of the research is to identify the propeller that would be applied to the fi shing boats typically found in the North Coastal Region of Central Java using B-Series marine propeller. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis for assessing the performance ofthrust and torque of the developed propeller was performed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
