%X <p>Blade-element-momentum theory code for predicting propeller performance at positive and negative thrust conditions for uniform inflow conditions. The code includes corrections for compressibility and root-tip effects and is able to handle the calculations for the operation of propellers in the energy-harvesting regime (negative thrust conditions).</p><p><br></p><p>For the validation data of the code, please refer to the paper "<a href="https://doi.org/10.2514/1.J064093" target="_blank">Benchmarking of Aerodynamic Models for Isolated Propellers Operating at Positive and Negative Thrust</a>".</p><p><br></p><p>You will need to have suitable polar data of your propeller geometry to use this code. This code is written in MATLAB.</p><p><br></p><p>Check out the README.md file for instructions on how to use the code.</p>
