Russian term or phrase: английский винтовой профиль
Аэродинамика ветрового колеса зависит от профиля лопастей, их крутки и размеров. Известны профили ЦАГИ, НАСА, английский винтовой профиль, симметричный "В", самотормозящий.

RAF airfoil section
Explanation:
Нашлось в довольно старом источнике вот что:

До последнего времени наиболее распространенными профилями для лопастей воздушных винтов являлись английские винтовые профили (RAF-6).

RAF = Royal Aircraft Factory, компания-разработчик
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Aircraft_Establishment#R...

The Wright brothers had done some of the earliest research on the most effective curvature, or camber, of a wing,
known as an airfoil. But during the early years of powered flight, airfoils for aircraft were essentially hand-built for
each airplane. Before World War I, there had been little research to develop a standardized airfoil section for use
on more than one aircraft. The British government had performed some work at the National Physical Laboratory
(NPL) that led to a series of Royal Aircraft Factory (RAF—not to be confused with the Royal Air Force) airfoils.

Видимо, для ветрового колеса такой профиль лопасти тоже используется или использовался.

BSW, BSF or BA


Explanation:
There were three standard forms of screw thead used befor metric became standard: British Standard Whitworth (BSW), British Sandard Fine (BSA) and British Association (BA). I leaarned about them all in a three-year engineering apprenticeship (1947-1950). I should think BSW is the most likely.

neutral  Tanami: "Профиль" здесь -- форма поперечного сечения лопасти (ветрогенератора). К резьбе никакого отношения не имеет.
