The Thruster should be as far forward as possible (Fig. 1)
Because of the leverage eff ect around the boats pivot point, it is
very important for the thrusters actual eff ect in the boat to get it as
far forward as possible. The relative distance change from the boats
pivot point to the thruster will be the change of actual thrust for the
boat.
Example
:
A: 100kg thrust x 11m leverage = 1100kgm torque to rot. the boat
B: 100kg thrust x 10m leverage = 1000kgm torque to rot. the boat
In position A you will get 10% more thrust to turn the boat around.
The thruster should be placed as deep as possible (Fig. 2)
The tunnel should be placed as deep as possible for two reasons:
1. Thrust will be reduced dramatically due.
2. To get as high as possible a water pressure to get maximum
effi ciency from the propeller.
Generally the top of the tunnel should be a minimum of 1/2 x the
tunnel diameter below the waterline. This is an absolute minimum
and we recommend that it is at least 3/4 x tunnel diameter (
)
below the waterline. A really good distance is about 1/1 x tunnel
diameter (
) below the waterline.
When you get the top of the tunnel 30-35 cm* / 1 feet below the
surface, other factors should be considered more important, i.e.
moving the thruster further forward.
Optimal tunnel length
If the tunnel gets too long, the friction inside will reduce the water
speed and thereby the thrust.
If the tunnel gets to short (normally only in the bottom section of
the tunnel) you can get cavitation problems as the water will not
have had time to “straigthen” itself before reaching the propel-
ler (Fig. 3/4). This cavitation will reduce performance as well as
creating a lot of noise.
The optimal tunnel length is 2 to 4 x tunnel diameter and you
should avoid tunnels longer than 6 to 7 times the tunnel diameter
as the performance reduction is then clearly noticeable.
Positioning of the tunnel / thruster

Plassering av tunnel og thruster
NO
Tunnelen bør plasseres lengst mulig frem i baugen (Fig. 1)
For å oppnå mest mulig moment rundt båtens dreiepunkt, er det
meget viktig å plassere tunnelen så langt fremme som mulig.
Avstanden fra båtens dreiepunkt til thruster vil ha stor betydning
på thrusterens eff ekt.
Eks.:
A: 55kg skyvekraft x 11m moment = 605kgm skyvekraft
B: 55kg skyvekraft x 10m moment = 550kgm skyvekraft
Posisjon A vil gi 10% mer skyvekraft til rotasjon.
Tunnelen skal plasseres dypest mulig (Fig. 2)
Tunnelen skal plasseres så dypt som mulig av to grunner:
1. Så luft ikke suges ned i tunnelen og ødelegger skyvekraften.
2. Ved å øke vanntrykket jobber propellen mer eff ektivt.
Hovedregelen er at tunnelen skal plasseres minimum ½ x tun-
nelen dia. under vannlinje. Anbefalt dybde er minst ¾ x dia. under
vannlinje
(
)
. Når tunnelen er plassert 33-35 cm under vannlinjen
bør andre faktorer vurderes som viktigere, d.v.s. å plassere tun-
nelen lengre frem.
Optimal tunnel lengde
Dersom tunellen blir for lang vil friksjonen i tunellen reduser vann-
hastigheten og derved eff ekten.
Dersom tunellen blir for kort (normalt bare i nedre del av tunel-
len) kan det oppstå kavitasjons problemer da vannet ikke har tid
/ av-stand til å «rette opp strømningsretningen» før det treff er
propellen (Fig. 3&4). Denne kavitasjonen vil redusere eff ekten og
lage mye støy.
Den optimale tunell lengden er 2 til 4 ganger tunell diameteren
og dersom tunellen blir så mye som 6 til 7 ganger diameteren i
lengde vil eff ekt tapet bli klart merkbart.

Tunnelplazierung soweit vorne wie möglich (Fig. 1)
Um einen möglichst großen Abstand vom Drehpunkt des Schiffes zu
erreichen, ist der Sidepower möglichst weit vorne einzubauen.
Eine Vergrößerung des Abstandes vom Drehpunkt des Schiffes
hat eine direkte Auswirkung auf die verfügbare Schubkraft.
Beispiel
:
A: 55kg Schubkraft x 11m = 605kgm zum Wenden des Bootes
B: 55kg Schubkraft x 10m = 550kgm zum Wenden des Bootes
In Beispiel A stehen damit 10% mehr Schubkraft zur Verfügung.
Den Tunnel so tief wie möglich positionieren (Fig. 2)
Den Tunnel aus zwei Gründen so tief wie möglich positionieren:
1. Damit nicht Luft mitangesaugt wird, die die Schubkraft
vollständig herabsetzt.
2. Um einen möglichst hohen Wasserdruck zu erhalten, um die
maximale Effizienz des Propellers erreichen.
Die Oberkante des Tunnels muß mind. einen halben Tunnel-
durchmesser unterhalb der Wasserlinie liegen. Dieser Wert ist ein
absolutes Minimum. Besser ist ein Wert von ca. ¾ des
Tunneldurchmessers (
☺
). Optimal ist eine Abstand von 1/1 x
Tunneldurchmesser (
☺☺
) zur Wasserlinie.
Liegt die Oberkante des Tunnels 30-35cm* / 1fuß unterhalb der
Wasserlinie, können andere Faktoren berücksichtigt werden.
Optimale Tunnellänge
Bei einem zu langem Tunnel reduziert der Reibungsverlust die
Wassergeschwindigkeit und damit die Schubkraft.
Bei einem zu kurzem Tunnel (häufig im unteren Bereich des
Tunnels) können Kavitationsprobleme entstehen, da sich das
Wasser nicht gerade auszurichten kann (Fig. 3&4). Diese Kavita-
tion ist leistungsreduzierend und kann starken Lärm verursachen.
Die optim. Tunnellänge ist das 2-4 fache des Tunneldurchmessers.
Tunnellängen von mehr als dem 6-7 fachen des Tunneldurch-
messers sollten vermieden werden, da dadurch die Leistung
reduziert wird.

The Thruster should be as far forward as possible (Fig. 1)
Because of the leverage effect around the boats pivot point, it is very
important for the thrusters actual effect in the boat to get it as far for-
ward as possible. The relative distance change from the boats pivot
point to the thruster will be the change of actual thrust for the boat.
Example
:
A: 55kg thrust x 11m leverage = 605kgm torque to rotate the boat
B: 55kg thrust x 10m leverage = 550kgm torque to rotate the boat
In position A you will get 10% more thrust to turn the boat around.
The thruster should be placed as deep as possible (Fig. 2)
The tunnel should be placed as deep as possible for two reasons:
1. So that it does not suck down air from the surface which will
destroy the thrust completely.
2. To get as high as possible a water pressure to get maximum
efficiency from the propeller.
Generally the top of the tunnel should be a minimum of ½ x the
tunnel diameter below the waterline. This is an absolute minimum
and we recommend that it is at least ¾ x tunnel diameter (
☺
) below
the waterline. A really good distance is about 1/1 x tunnel diameter
(
☺☺
) below the waterline.
When you get the top of the tunnel 30-35 cm*/1 feet below the
surface, other factors should be considered more important, i.e.
moving the thruster further forward.
Optimal tunnel length
If the tunnel gets to long, the friction inside will reduce the water
speed and thereby the thrust.
If the tunnel gets to short (normally only in the bottom section of the
tunnel) you can get cavitation problems as the water will not have
had time to “straighten” itself before reaching the propeller (Fig. 3&4).
This cavitation will reduce performance as well as creating a lot of
noise.
The optimal tunnel length is 2 to 4 x tunnel diameter and you should
avoid tunnels longer than 6 to 7 times the tunnel diameter as the
performance reduction is then clearly noticeable.
