Author points out that Froude's method of applying coefficients of comparison in determining effective face pitch of ship propeller is not strictly correct; his figures were modified to read directly in terms of face pitch; presents efficiency diagram in which envelope of maximum efficiency has been drawn in and graduated to read in terms of face-pitch ratio; it is thought that this will facilitate design of optimum propeller.
