French term

hélice de propulsion de navire

French to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
La réduction de la taille du convertisseur statique de fréquence prend toute son importance et son intérêt quand le couple résistant appliqué à la machine fonctionnant comme moteur est proportionnel au carré de la vitesse de rotation. C'est le cas en particulier quand la machine est destinée à être couplée à une pompe centrifuge, un ventilateur, un compresseur, une turbine, une hélice de propulsion de navire, etc....

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

ship propeller / ship propulsion screw

it's a general term for one of the ways the machine can be used.
Peer comment(s):

neutral B D Finch : Your first suggestion requires the possessive; otherwise, it becomes anything with the capacity to propel a ship that is dedicated to that purpose and could even be a large rubber band or a jet engine.
