Book Description
Fundamentals of shipboard machinery, equipment, and engineering plants are presented in this text prepared for engineering officers. A general description is included of the development of naval ships, ship design and construction, stability and buoyancy, and damage and casualty control. Engineering theories are explained on the background of ship propulsion and steering, lubrication systems, measuring devices, thermodynamics, and energy exchanges. Conventional steam turbine propulsion plants are presented in such units as machinery arrangement, plant layout, piping systems, propulsion boilers and their fittings and controls, steam turbines, and heat transfer apparatus in condensate and feed systems. General principles of diesel, gasoline, and gas turbine engines are also provided. Moreover, nuclear power plants are analyzed in terms of the fission process, reactor control, and naval nuclear power plant. Auxiliary equipment is also described. The text is concluded by a survey of newly developed hull forms, propulsion and steering devices, direct energy conversion systems, combined power plants, central operations systems, and fuel conversion programs. Illustrations for explanation purposes are also given.

Book Description
TRB Special Report 266: Naval Engineering: Alternative Approaches for Organizing Cooperative Research evaluates alternative approaches for organizing and managing cooperative research programs in naval engineering. At the request of the Office of Naval Research (ONR), TRB/the Marine Board convened a committee to investigate and evaluate alternative approaches for structuring cooperative research programs in naval engineering. ONR is concerned about having both research products in "total ship design" and designers who are capable of designing complex warships according to this approach. In a fast-track study, the committee evaluated four approaches to structuring a cooperative research program and provided its assessment of these options. Each model was assessed in terms of its ability to balance the perspective of the various stakeholders (Navy, shipbuilding industry, and universities) in the development of a research agenda, the production of useful research, and the ability to attract students into the field.Special Report 266 Summary
