A method combined with the genetic algorithm for design of high efficiency propeller

摘要

In this paper, a design method combined with the genetic algorithm is proposed to design the propeller of general aviation aircraft The inputs of this method are the cruise speed, rotational speed, propeller diameter, number of blade, thrust, Reynolds and Mach numbers The chord and pitch-angle angle distributions along the blade are the outputs of this method The propeller of a kind of Li-ion battery powered aircraft is designed by the present method.
