Harnessing The Vortex
Omschrijving
In the fiercely competitive world of shipping, every drop of fuel matters. Naturally, any way to sail farther on less can translate into substantial cost savings for operators, not to mention benefi ts to the environment.
Improved propulsive efficiency is achieved by weakening the propeller hub vortex. Originally applied to fixed pitch propellors, this feature is now also available for controllable pitch propellors.
