The potential based low order surface panel method is used to predict the hydrodynamic performance of marine propellers. In present method the hyperboloidal quadrilateral panels are employed to avoid the gap between the panels. The influence coefficients of panels are calculated by Morino’s analytical formulations for increasing numerically calculating speed. The pressure Kutta condition is satisfied on the trailing edge of propeller blade by Newton-Raphson iterative procedure. Therefore the pressure coefficients of the suction and pressure faces of blade are equal on trailing edge. The method developed by Yanagizawa is used to determine the velocities on propeller surface, and to avoid the singularity in the numerical differentiation. The predicted pressure distributions and open water performances of general propellers and highly skewed propellers have a good agreement with experimental dat and other calculation results.
