The motivation of this study is to present the scale effects on the propulsion performance of Joubert BB2 submarine with MARIN7371R propeller. Joubert BB2 submarine was designed as a realistic attack submarine to be used in benchmarking studies. Numerical analyses were conducted solving RANS equations. The propeller in the self-propelled case was modeled using the body force method. The numerical method was verified both for submarine and open water propeller cases. The resistance, open water propeller and propulsion characteristics were validated with the available numerical/experimental data. After, the results were extrapolated to the full-scale and compared with other studies. Full-scale RANS analyses were then conducted to calculate the resistance and propulsion parameters by eliminating the possible scale effects. The extrapolated full-scale results were compared with the full-scale analyses and self-propulsion method (SPE) results. The scale effects on the resistance and propulsion parameters were obtained in detail. 1978 ITTC prediction method coupled with the body force method was utilized to observe the scale effects. In addition to this, the practicality of the SPE method for the estimation of the propulsive performance was shown. The scale effects on the propulsive parameters such as nominal wake and thrust deduction factors, open water propeller efficiency and propulsion efficiency were seen.
