Abstract:Ducted propeller is an engineered propeller drive which aimed to enhance thrust force. Many ways can be done in purpose to enhance thrust force, such as geometry variation in term of Ld/D ratio. Ld/D ratio is a ratio between duct length and duct diameter. In this research, an analysis was conducted using numerical simulation. This research used two Ld/D ratio (0.4 and 0.5) and three propeller angular velocities as the variables (1000, 3000, and 5000 rpm). The result of this research showed that higher Ld/D rat… Show more
