Yes. Propeller blades are much like the wings of an airplane. On a propeller the airfoil chord, twist and camber are change drastically from root to tip - more than on a wing.

Why wings are shaped like airfoil?

Wings are airfoils. The purpose of the airfoil it to accelerate air over the top of the wing and create an area of low pressure, which produces lift.


How is an airfoil shaped?

Each aircraft has a different shaped airfoil. The purpose of the airfoil shape is to reduce drag over a range of speeds which the aircraft wing operates at while providing the least possible drag at the cruising speed (regular flight speed) in order to ensure good performance.

What is an airfoil?

An airfoil is a shape that is designed to produce lift when it moves through the air. It is commonly used in the design of wings for aircraft and blades for propellers and turbines. The unique shape of the airfoil allows air to flow faster over the top surface, creating lower pressure and generating lift.
