Propeller
An assembly of radially disposed blades with an airfoil shape that when rotated in air produce thrust.All propeller blade airfoils have a certain angle of attack range, in which the flow around the airfoil remains attached to airfoil's surface. While this is the case, the efficiency of the axial fan... Found op http://www.diracdelta.co.uk/science/source/p/r/propeller/source.html

Propeller
A device commonly used to convert the power of an aircraft piston or turboprop engine into propulsive force; each blade is essentially a rotating wing, twisted and varying in section from root to tip to achieve maximum efficiency, which produces lift in a forward direction, i.e. thrust.

propeller
Screwlike device used to propel some ships and aeroplanes. A propeller has a number of curved blades that describe a helical path as they rotate with the hub, and accelerate fluid (liquid or gas) backwards during rotation.
