  • This paper deals with a comparison of performance between tip rake propeller and normal propeller in P.O.W condition. In comparison with normal propeller, tip rake propeller is good at preventing occurring negative effect: tip vortex, etc. But, officially formulated information about tip rake propeller doesn't become known. So this paper makes design variables about rake factors and applies them to propeller geometry. And propellers applied design variables are compared with each other about open water propeller efficiency. Also this paper confirms a vorticity reduction at propeller tip.
