In this video, we used the 3D model of our wooden WW2 era propeller blade to run CFD simulations. We were able to analyze the propeller performance in function of the blade pitch angle and found different optima for max thrust and max efficiency.

In the next video, we'll be mounting this propeller on a full 3D model of a WW2 era aircraft!

Discover how we transformed a WW2-era wooden propeller blade into a detailed 3D model using photogrammetry. Follow our process as we clean up the model in Blender and reveal airfoil sections along the blade's length using ParaView. Stay tuned for a sneak peek at the full 3D CFD simulation analyzing thrust, torque, and aerodynamic performance. Perfect for aviation and aerodynamics enthusiasts!
