Lucien Chauvière (1876–1966) was a French aeronautical engineer. He is best known for his Integrale propellers, which were the first aerodynamically advanced propellers manufactured in Europe. Lucien Chauvière was born in Paris on 11 February 1876. and educated at Arts et Métiers ParisTech in Angers, where his studies included the theory of propeller design. He became a member of the Aero-Club de France in December 1906, sponsored by the engineer Andre Farcot. The same month he exhibited an apparatus designed to investigate the stability of helicopters at the Aero-Club's exhibit at the annual Salon d'Automobile.

  • Lucien Chauvière, né le 11 février 1876 à Paris et mort le 8 avril 1966 à Paris était un ingénieur français.

  • Lucien Chauvière (1876–1966) was a French aeronautical engineer. He is best known for his Integrale propellers, which were the first aerodynamically advanced propellers manufactured in Europe. Lucien Chauvière was born in Paris on 11 February 1876. and educated at Arts et Métiers ParisTech in Angers, where his studies included the theory of propeller design. He became a member of the Aero-Club de France in December 1906, sponsored by the engineer Andre Farcot. The same month he exhibited an apparatus designed to investigate the stability of helicopters at the Aero-Club's exhibit at the annual Salon d'Automobile. In 1908 he made a 5 m (16 ft) diameter laminated wooden propeller for the Clément-Bayard No.1 semi-rigid airship, which broke the existing speed record for airships. He was also responsible for the construction of a number of heavier-than-air aircraft, some to his own design and some designed by others, including the of 1907 and the Clement-Bayard monoplane of 1909 designed by Victor Tatin He later established a factory at Quai Jules Guesde in the Vitry-sur-Seine suburb of Paris. A Chauvière propeller was fitted to the aircraft used by Louis Blériot to make the first heavier-than-air flight across the English Channel. Following the success of his first propellers, Chauvière opened factories in France, Germany and Russia. Many of the pioneer aircraft constructors used his propellers, not simply because of their quality but also because they were available off the shelf from a large stock. Several hundred were made during 1910. In 1913 he produced an experimental variable-pitch propeller, which was fitted to the airship. Over 100,000 Chauvière propellers were built for Allied aircraft during the First World War, around 25% of total production. After the war Chauvière carried out pioneering work in the construction of metal propellers, particularly the use of forged duralumin, and also worked on the development of variable-pitch propellers. A Chauvière metal propeller was fitted to the Blériot 110 monoplane flown by Lucien Bossoutrot and Maurice Rossi to break the world endurance record in March 1931. (en)
