Abstract: The paper presents results of theoretical and experimental investigations about hydrodynamic characteristics of vertical axis propeller blades moving on curvilinear trajectories with variable angles of attack. Inductive velocities are computed according to a three-dimensional vortex system, and design of the blades motion was carried out using experimental characteristics of underwater wings in curvilinear flow.
