The article presents results of measurements of the overall hydrodynamic characteristics of the three variants of a generic pod propulsor model. The measurements were conducted in the cavitation tunnel of the Faculty of Ocean Engineering and Ship Technology, Technical University of Gdańsk. A special model of a pod propulsor was constructed, enabling measurements of thrust, side force and moment around the vertical axis on the entire propulsor. The measurements were conduced for three variants of the propulsor configuration and for a wide range of operational parameters. The results are presented in the form of standard non-dimensional coefficients in the function of advance coefficient and drift angle.
