Hello all,
I have been attempting to perform the iterative procedure outlined in McCormic's textbook (1995) for the vortex theory of propellers. However, I have become stumped when attempting to get tangential velocity relative to tip speed after the first iteration as a part of the equation is the sqrt of an expresión times x - wt/vt where x is relative radial position. When getting close to the hub, x becomes too small, and I get an imaginary number. Does anyone have any useful thoughts? I will attempt to start the program from scratch again tomorrow
