Question:

The thrust of a marine propeller is to be measured during "open-water" tests at a variety of angular speeds and forward speeds ("speeds of advance"). The thrust, \(F_{T}\), is thought to depend on water density, \(ho\), propeller diameter, \(D\), speed of advance, \(V\), acceleration of gravity, \(g\), angular speed, \(\omega\), pressure in the liquid, \(p\), and liquid viscosity, \(\mu\). Develop a set of dimensionless parameters to characterize the performance of the propeller. (One of the resulting parameters, \(g D / V^{2}\), is known as the Froude speed of advance.)
