Abstract

Abstract This invention relates to a section for shrouded propeller blade, of which the relative thickness is included between 9% and 15%, wherein, the curvature of said section having a maximum value at the leading edge thereof, the upper surface line comprises three successive portions, such that in the first portion, the curvature decreases rapidly from said maximum value at the leading edge to a value close to 20 at a first point of which the reduced abscissa is close to 1%; in the second portion, the curvature decreases more slowly from said value close to 20 at said first point up to a value close to 1 at a second point, of which the reduced abscissa is close to 25%; and in the third portion, the curvature is less than 1 between said second point and said trailing edge.
