…Many single-plate rudders are unbalanced rudders with the front end of the rudder (closer to the ship) as the axis of rotation, and such rudders require a large moment to rotate the rudder blade, but balanced rudders have a smaller moment on the rudder shaft, which has the advantage of reducing the horsepower of the steering gear. The Erz rudders are streamlined overall, but about one-third of the front is fixed and only the rear part is movable. By having the fixed part bear part of the force acting on the rudder, it is possible to reduce the horsepower of the steering gear and prevent stalling even at large steering angles. A reaction rudder is a wing-shaped fin attached to the leading edge of the rudder blade that rectifies the twist of the screw propeller wake and generates thrust from the rudder itself, thereby increasing the ship's thrust. Similarly, a rudder with an upside-down twist at the front end of the rudder post to rectify the screw propeller wake and increase propulsion efficiency is called a contra rudder. … *Some of the terminology explanations that mention the "Erzgebirge" are listed below.

…単板舵では舵の前端(船に近いほう)を回転軸とする形式の非釣合舵が多く,このような舵では舵板を回転させるのに大きなモーメントを要するが,釣合舵では舵軸にかかるモーメントが小さく,操舵機の馬力を小さくできる利点がある。エルツ舵は,全体としては流線形であるが,前方の約1/3は固定され,後方の部分のみが可動となっており,舵に働く力の一部を固定部に受けもたせることにより,操舵機の馬力を小さくできる,大舵角まで失速を起こさないなどの利点がある。反動舵は舵板の前縁につけた翼形の鰭(ひれ)でスクリュープロペラ後流のねじれを整流して舵自身に推進力を発生させ,船の推進力を増大させるもので,同様に,スクリュープロペラ後流を整流し推進効率を高めるために,舵柱の前端に上下逆のねじれを与えた舵をコントラ舵と呼ぶ。… ※「エルツ舵」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
