no. it needs some viscous drag to throw the water and drag the ship forward... feel like a block just gliding in frictionless plane...

Why can'y space ships use propellers to move in space?
A propeller needs a fluid in which to operate, like water or air. In space, there is not enough air for a propeller to work. Space is almost a complete vacuum.
What is meant ideal fluid by civil engineering?
Any fluid that has no resistance to shear stress and no compressibility is called "Ideal Fluid"
Does a boat propeller run when the boat is idle?
No, the propeller will only work if the engine is running.
How does a propeller work?
A propeller works by converting the rotation of the engine into horizontal thrust similar to a fan. The blades push the air backwards creating acceleration, and create a difference in pressure between the forward and rear surface adding to the movement. The above is, of course true for a boat propeller. For an airplane propeller Bernoulli's pincipal is involved. Bernoulli's principle states that the greater the speed of a fluid, the less the lateral pressure. So the propeller uses the same deal as the wing.
How does a ship propeller work?
It propels.
Is water an ideal fluid?
Ideal Fluid:An incompressible fluid that has no internal viscosity.
How does aircraft propeller work?
the motor spins the propeller like a turbine. isn't it obvious, idiot .
Difference between real and ideal fluid?
Ideal FluidsIn compressibleIt has zero viscosityNo resistance is encountered as the fluid movesReal FluidsCompressibleViscous in natureCertain amount of resistance is always offered by these fluids as they move
What is an airscrew?
An airscrew is a propeller of an aircraft, or an actuator disc whose working fluid is air.
How does a propeller work in a toy car?
It moves.
What is ideal fluid?
inviscid flow
How does the airplane propeller work?
The curved shape of the propeller deflects airflow to it's rear. This is 'thrust' that propels an aircraft.
