The linear jet propulsion system, unlike pump‐jets which are widely used in underwater bodies, is installed inside a tunnel under the vessel and can be used for high‐speed crafts, tugs, and service boats. However, this system has not received adequate attention by researchers, which is the subject of the current study.

Influence of Various Stator Parameters on the Open-Water Performance of Pump-Jet Propulsion
In order to improve the hydrodynamic performance of pump-jet propulsion (PJP) when matching stator with the rotor, the RANS method with SST k-ω turbulence model is employed to study the influence of six kinds of stator parameters, which are classified ...

Abstract The tip-clearance flow in a pump-jet propulsor exerts great impacts on the fluctuating pressures and resultant unsteady forces, which are important sources of structural vibrations and radiated noise underwater. The blade geometry close to the tip is an important factor determining the vortex strength in the tip-clearance flow.

Influence of Spatially Varying Flow on the Dynamic Response of a Waterjet inside an SES
Surface Effect Ships (SES) are a promising fuel‐efficient ship technology that typically carry most of their weight on an air cushion. To accommodate its shallow draft and slender side hulls and to absorb the high thrust and power required for high‐speed applications, waterjets are typically used as the primary propulsion system.

Modeling of Cavitating Flow through Waterjet Propulsors
A computational‐fluid‐dynamics‐based modeling effort to capture flow through an axial flow waterjet propulsor is presented. The effort covered the waterjet flow over a wide range of flow coefficients and into cavitation‐driven breakdown. The computations are presented in cavitation at two values of flow coefficient through a series of decreasing ...
