Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Electric Propulsion of Ships Much attention is now being given to propositions relating to the electric propulsion of ships. A study of the circumstances reveals a remarkable accordance of means and requirements. The case may be briefly outlined as follow's: - The double transformation of energy in the form of work into energy in the form of electricity and again from electricity into work, may often, when the operations are on a large scale, be effected at an overall efficiency of 90 per cent, and even higher. In other words, at the cost of a loss of 10 per cent, in energy and of the initial and maintenance cost of the electrical machinery, engineers can interpose an electric drive between the prime mover and the machinery to be driven. The object of interposing an electric drive is to obtain advantages of flexibility which will permit of securing greater efficiency both in the prime mover and in the driven machinery, which, in the case of ship propulsion, is the propeller. Further great advantages relate to the superior means of control rendered available with electric drive. In the case of ship propulsion, the prime mover has, until recently, almost always been a reciprocating engine. But during the last ten years, many ships have been fitted with steam turbines. As applied to ship propulsion, the steam turbine has not met with any approach to the almost unqualified success which has attended its use on land. This is chiefly because, in applying the steam turbine to ship propulsion, it has been necessary to adopt speeds several times lower than have been customary with land turbines. This has been necessary owing to the well-known circumstance that the efficiency attainable with the screw propeller is lower (for a given power) the higher the speed of revolutions. It was a realization of this circumstance, more than any other consideration, which first led to serious propositions for the electrical driving of large ships.

Book Synopsis Turbine Main Engines by : John B. Main
Download or read book Turbine Main Engines written by John B. Main and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbine Main Engines deals with the principle of operation of turbine main engines. Topics covered include practical considerations that affect turbine design and efficiency; steam turbine rotors, blades, nozzles, and diaphragms; lubricating oil systems; and gas turbines for use with nuclear reactors. Gas turbines for naval boost propulsion, merchant ship propulsion, and naval main propulsion are also considered. This book is divided into three parts and begins with an overview of the basic mode of operation of the steam turbine engine and how it converts the pressure energy of the ingoing steam into equivalent kinetic energy. The second part deals with the principle of operation of marine gas turbines and discusses the effect of pressure and temperature on turbine performance; creep of turbine components; fouling of compressors and turbines; and control systems and protective devices. The final part describes free piston-gas turbine machinery and looks at different types of free piston engine, together with turbine fouling and washing procedure. This monograph will be of interest to mechanical engineers and those involved in turbine operation and design.
