An experimental method for model propeller-ice interaction in air: concept and first results
One of the aims of the German national funded research project ProEis is to develop a methodology for determination of ice loads on model propellers which will then aid in improving and developing software tools for their prediction. For this purpose, a prototype device has been designed at HSVA wit...

One of the aims of the German national funded research project ProEis is to develop a methodology for determination of ice loads on model propellers which will then aid in improving and developing software tools for their prediction. For this purpose, a prototype device has been designed at HSVA within this project which is used to guide defined ice floes with one degree of freedom into a model propeller where they are milled and the resulting forces and moments are measured. This paper focuses on the description of the ice feeding device and presents some first results with respect to the physical process as well as measured load characteristics. For now, experiments are conducted in absence of water in order to exclude all hydrodynamic effects. A podded propeller is used which allows measuring of shaft torque and shaft thrust. A high speed video camera is also employed to record the propeller-ice interaction process at 5000 frames per second, allowing to observe the milling process in detail.
