Marine Streamline Rudder
Marine streamline rudder is a rudder with bullnosed round forward edge which tapers regularly to a thin after edge. The rudder is covered with a cladding plate at the periphery of the skeleton, with high strength and a streamlined rudder blade profile. Although the construction of this rudder is more complex, it is widely adopted because of its many advantages. It typically made from lightweight, strong materials such as aluminum, composite materials, or stainless steel, which provide strength without significantly adding weight.
Overview
The marine streamline rudders are a significant improvement over traditional rudder designs, offering enhanced efficiency and performance in both maritime and aeronautical applications. Their adoption leads to better maneuverability, reduced drag, and energy savings, although they come with higher initial costs and maintenance requirements. The design of streamline helps to reduce the pressure of rudder bearing because of its hollow inner structure and watertight which producing certain buoyancy.
