HydroComp PropExpert 2004 is a professional propeller selection and sizing tool from HydroComp, Inc., designed for naval architects, marine engineers, prop shops, and boat builders. Focused on conventional propeller-driven craft, it helps users specify an efficient propeller for inboard, outboard, and sterndrive applications by linking hull form, power, and gear ratio to propeller dimensions and expected performance.
The 2004 edition streamlines early-stage and refit decisions with practical calculations and a built-in library of standard propeller series. Users can evaluate diameter, pitch, blade count, and blade area to meet speed and load objectives, predict RPM and shaft power, estimate thrust and torque, and check propeller loading against accepted limits to reduce the risk of underperformance. PropExpert also supports comparison of candidate setups and produces clear reports suitable for proposals and documentation.
