[0002] The wake flow field refers to a water flow formed around a ship when the ship is running in water, which is affected by the movement of the ship body. The size of the wake flow is related to the ship navigation speed, ship type, roughness of the ship body surface, Reynolds number and other factors. The wake flow at the propeller flow field of the ship will hinder the operation of the propeller, thereby affecting the operation efficiency of the propeller. In order to solve this problem, a wake flow field regulation device is usually used to stably regulate the regional wake flow. However, the existing wake flow field regulation device has the following problems when in use: The existing wake flow field regulation device is mostly in the form of a guide pipe cooperating with a guide plate to guide and pre-rotate the wake flow, so as to ensure the stable operation of the propeller. However, the existing wake flow field regulation device is not convenient to adaptively adjust according to the navigation speed. With the faster navigation, the influence of the wake flow on the propeller is greater. At this time, the original distribution mode is still adopted, which undoubtedly weakens the guiding and pre-rotating effect of the wake flow, and thus cannot achieve better regulation effect and still affects the operation efficiency of the propeller.
