POWER TRANSMISSION AND AUTOMATION FOR SHIPS AND SUBMERSIBLES

Describes in detail the various gear forms and transmission systems available for ship propulsion and their manufacture. In drawing upon the studies made at Annapolis and elsewhere it points the way in which new techniques, including those from the aerospace and aviation industry, can be profitably applied to the mercantile marine, as well as to naval ships. Eight chapters analyse gear design, gear arrangement concepts high ratio drives, hydrodynamic drives, common critical problems, ship automation and cargo carrying submarines.
