PropExpert 2023

HydroComp ‘s PropExpert offers the most up-to-date techniques available in an easy-to-use and powerful package. Calculate the optimum diameter, pitch, reduction gear and blade area for open or ducted impeller systems.

PropExpert is ideal for selecting and analyzing propeller systems for workboats and pleasure craft. Confidently identify ship-specific propulsion system components with just a few inputs. The installed commercial license library can be expanded with your own data and build your own library of ships, engines and gearboxes.

Use data from a previous test or a similar vessel to anchor your model to real-world performance, or use PropExpert’s speed estimation formula when data is not available. PropExpert’s project library can help you manage a database of projects, ships, propellers, engines and reduction gear models.

Analyze its size with the software’s two-step solution. Achieve ultimate performance to determine maximum speed, thrust, power and efficiency. Advanced features in PropExpert allow you to perform deeper prop analysis.
