Fixed Pitch
As the names imply, the middle distinction between the 2
prop designs includes the orientation of the blades relative to the propeller
hub. Pitch affects the manner a propeller blade will slice via the air. A low
(great) pitch positions the blade of the propeller in a slightly more vertical
function from ground degree.
This configuration
generates greater thrust and is good for take-off and ascent. At cruising
altitude, a more horizontal, excessive propeller Fixed Pitch lets in the prop to move via
the air greater effectively. This conserves fuel and reduces stress on the
engine. A constant pitch propeller has its pitch determined at the factory
whilst the propeller is made. Its blade orientation turned into examined and
constructed for a specific plane to offer the most desirable mixture of overall
performance and efficiency.
