FIELD: hydrodynamics.
SUBSTANCE: invention refers to experimental hydrodynamics, hydrodynamics and aerodynamics of airscrew and can be used in shipbuilding and aircraft building. Method includes force field created by airscrew rotation and carrier moving, use of visualising facilities and field structure registration by optical equipment. Thus airscrew rotary speed is established assuming production and stream maintenance of visualising facilities. Field is registered by scanning in two transversely-spaced planes, i.e. horizontal and vertical, in front of, and behind, the airscrew. Thus boundary layer, turbulence areas, increased and decreased pressure areas, airscrew expansion angles, and whole flow structure are showed.
EFFECT: high-accuracy picture of airscrew propeller environment flow.
