Results of tests to obtain general idea as to performance of propeller when it was moved at various speeds forwards and backwards along its axis of rotation, and to express this information in some simple way, so that approximate performance of any similar propeller working in fluid medium of any density might readily be deduced; method of making model propeller; investigation of relation between thrust ratio of lifting screws and number, arrangement, shape and section of their blades. Paper presented before Instn. Automobile Engrs., Mar. 1917. (See also - no. 223, July 1929, pp. 615-630, 14 figs)
