About this book
On the elementary relation between pitch, slip, and propulsive efficiency
Author: Froude,
Year: 1920
The author examines the current theory on the importance of reducing slip in airplane propellers. The author feels an exaggerated importance is attached to this supposition and feels that the increase in friction by an increase in propeller area or number of revolutions can't be discounted.
