17 Eridani is a single[10] star in the equatorial constellation of Eridanus. It has the Bayer designation v Eridani (not to be confused with ν (nu) Eri), while 17 Eridani is the Flamsteed designation. This object is visible to the naked eye as a faint, white-hued star with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.74.[2] It is moving further from the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of around +15 km/s.[2]

Houk and Swift (1999) found a stellar classification of B9 III[4] for this star, while Cowley et al. (1969) show B9 Vs.[5] Stellar models suggest this is a main-sequence star,[3] which indicates it is generating energy through hydrogen fusion at its core. It is about 178[8] million years old with 3.55[3] times the mass of the Sun and around 3.2[6] times the size of the Sun. The star is radiating 268[3] times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 11,143 K.[3] These coordinates are a source for X-ray emission, which may be coming from an unresolved companion.[7]
