      abstract = {This paper investigates the potential performance  improvements of adding contracted loaded tips to  propellers. A Wageningen B5-75 Series propeller has been  simulated and verified against published experimental test  data. Contracted tips have then been added to a Wageningen  propeller and the modified propeller then simulated. A CFD  method and model has been developed. Pressure, velocity and  vector plots have all been analysed detailing the mechanism  behind the contracted tips. Limitations behind this method  have been explored and explained, and recommendations for  further studies made. The development of a database of  propeller characteristics and performance chart data to  allow quick evaluation of designs has also been  proposed. },
