Polynomials for thrust and torque coefficients for marine propellers are published by MARIN (former NSMB). The thrust and torque coefficients are expressed as a function of the advance coefficient J, pitch ratio P/D, Blade area ratio Ac/Ao, number of blades z and Reynolds number Rn. With the use of the polynomials above, a computer program in Fortran 77 was written. The program can be used in the propeller design procedure for Resistance calculation, propeller calculation and choice of the main engine or as a standalone program as discussed in the report.
