Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2163471A1] A propulsion and steering arrangement for a vessel comprises a screw propeller (2) and a turnable rudder (10) arranged behind the propeller (2). A fairing (6) at a tail end of the propeller (2) and a bulb-shaped body (20) provided on the rudder (10) form a streamlined body which is continuous except for a narrow gap between the fairing (6) and the bulb-shaped body (20). The rudder (10) has a twisted upper leading edge (12) extending from an upper end (17) of the rudder (10) to the bulb-shaped body (20) and a twisted lower leading edge (13) extending from a lower end (18) of the rudder (10) to the bulb-shaped body (20). At least one of the upper leading edge (12) and the lower leading edge (13) has a constant twist angle.
