Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Second Edition. x, [2], 545, [3] pages. Cover has slight wear and soiling. This is one of the Fundamentals of Naval Science series. Includes Acknowledgments, Foreword, Appendix: Temperature and Pressure; Glossary; Additional Reference Books, and Index. Chapters include Fundamentals; Steam Propulsion; Reciprocating Internal Combustion; Gas Turbine Propulsion; Marine Propulsion Plants; Service Systems; Ship Layout and Construction; Ship Stability and Damage Control; and Miscellaneous. Also includes Appendix, Glossary, Additional Reference Books, and Index. Errata 1 (an Introduction to Naval Engineering, 2nd Ed.), has a worn top edge and is laid in. This book provides a general overview of the hardware and underlying theory pertinent to the four types of propulsion units used in the navy, along with their major associated subsystems and other auxiliary support systems. It does so in sufficient depth to provide a foundation upon which an officer can build when, for reason of billet assignment, he or she needs to understand thoroughly a specific ship's engineering plant. It provides a basic understanding of how a ship is constructed, ship stability, and sets out means of controlling damage to a ship while at sea. It compares the basic energy conversion plants in use in the U.S. Navy in such a way as to help the naval officer understand the rationale for the selection of propulsion plant types for use on different classes of naval vessels. This second edition of the basic textbook in shipboard engineering presents the latest information on steam, gas turbine, and nuclear propulsion, as well as auxiliary systems, ship stability, and damage control. New to this edition is a section on engineering documentation. Seller Inventory # 81449
