Experimental study of singing vanes
Using model vanes in a 30-inch water tunnel, the basic mechanism of the singing propeller has been studied and the effect of thickening the trailing edge of a vane has been examined. The singing has been shown to be a resonant excitation of the vane by the trailing von Karman street,
modified by the effect of the vane's vibration.
