Abstract
We now discuss a number of specific problems concerned with the optimization of propulsion devices. These problems are such that they can be treated by means of the theory of the previous chapter. Our considerations are directed to the determination of the shed free vorticity of the optimum propellers from which follows their bound vorticity.
