Unsteady CFD simulations have been conducted for generic isolated- and installed-propeller configurations at low-speed flight conditions. The propeller is a four-bladed design typical for modem regional turboprop airerafl. The computations were performed with the DLR TAU-eode and the numerical results are compared with experimental data. The results of the Euler and Navier-Stokes computations agree well with the wind tunnel wake data and surface pressure distributions. Additionally, an analysis of the forces acting on the wing and the propeller is performed.
