Review:
The eagerly anticipated new edition of the most comprehensive book available on marine propellers and propulsion
From the Back Cover:
Although the propeller lies submerged out of sight, it is a complex component in both the hydrodynamic and structural sense. Marine Propellers and Propulsion fulfils the need for a comprehensive and cutting edge volume that brings together a great range of knowledge on propulsion technology, a multi-disciplinary and international subject. The book comprises three main sections covering hydrodynamics; materials and mechanical considerations; and design, operation and performance. The discussion relates theory to practical problems of design, analysis and operational economy, and is supported by extensive design information, operational detail and tabulated data.

· The most comprehensive book available on marine propellers, fully updated and revised, with four new chapters on azimuthing and podded propulsors, propeller-rudder interaction, high-speed propellers, and propeller-ice interaction
· A valuable reference for marine engineers and naval architects gathering together the subject of propulsion technology, in both theory and practice, over the last forty years
· Written by a leading expert on propulsion technology, essential for students of propulsion and hydrodynamics, complete with online worked examples

John Carlton is uniquely qualified to write this book, in which his wide experience – design, research, technical investigation and consultancy – is put to the service of marine engineers, naval architects and anyone involved with propeller technology.|Although the propeller lies submerged out of sight, it is a complex component in both the hydrodynamic and structural sense.
