Abstract

In general, the project revolves about the configuration and analysis of propeller blade parameters on the performance of thrust power for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) application. The study and analysis carried out is intended to find the optimum propeller blade configuration for the AUV performance in terms of stream velocity output and thrust power. The technique of modeling and simulation by using Computer Aided Design (CAD) software to manipulate the parameters configurations that come out with 32 designs of blade propeller is the best methods to get the effective optimum designs. From the study conducted, there are only research on each parameters of propeller blade but no research on the blade parameters configuration was found. Therefore, Computer Fluid Dynamic (CFD) has been used in this project as a medium for analyzing new parameters configuration for optimum performance of propeller blade. The study goes on to produce a propeller blade with new parameters configuration for AUV which the optimum thrust power produced. In additional, the data generated by the CFD analysis and calculated thrust power has been studied and the design with optimum thrust power has been identify while further work is to run the experiment as a method to test theories and hypotheses about how physical processes of this analysis work
