Abstract
The aerodynamic design and analysis on advanced propeller with blade sweep was performed for recent turboprop aircraft. HS1 airfoil series are selected as a advanced propeller blade airfoil. Adkins method is used for aerodynamic design and performance analysis with respect to the design point. Adkins method is based on the vortex-blade element theory which design the propeller to satisfy the condition for minimum energy loss. Propeller geometry is generated by varying chord length and pitch angle at design point of target aircraft. Advanced propeller is designed by apply the modified chord length, the tip sweep which is based on the geometry of conventional propeller. The aerodynamic characteristics of the designed Advanced propeller were verified by CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamic) and evaluated to be properly designed.
