Once estimates of resistance and hull‐propeller interaction parameters are completed, a propeller must be selected before propulsive power for a ship can be determined. As a first step in the propeller design process, basic characteristics are selected on the basis of propeller series data. Afterwards, details of the propeller design are determined with additional computational tools like propeller lifting line and lifting surface programs. Propeller design problems may be subdivided into two groups, namely optimum diameter design problems, and optimum rate of revolution design problems. Selection of the optimum propeller characteristics based on open water charts is quite cumbersome. The propeller design charts have been derived from the thrust and torque coefficient polynomials of the Wageningen B‐Series propellers. It is fairly straight forward to include the polynomials in an optimization tool which solves the selection process computationally rather than with charts.
