Broad bladed, high pitch propellers suitable for warships were tested in open water and under cavitation conditions; propellers are of geometrically simple shape with symmetrical blade contour, constant pitch and circular back profiles; blade area ratios are 0.75-1.20, and pitch ratios 1-1.45; difference between these propellers and some modern propellers designed according to vortex theory.
