Based on results of open-water tests with systematic series of contrarotating propellers, consisting of four bladed forward screw and five bladed aft screw, contrarotating propeller systems were designed for tanker and cargo liner; comparative tests were carried out on models of both types equipped with contrarotating propellers and with conventional screw; propulsive efficiencies, cavitation characteristics, propeller induced vibratory forces and stopping abilities are dealt with.
