Compared.
The reduction in weight, space, and complement is in the main st- | tributable to the change from coal to oil, but the small tube boiler and the large boiler units possible with this type also contribute to the advance, as does also, in respect to space, the geared turbine, observing also that the geared design con tributes to the attainment of a horsepower by virtue of the In- higher speed on the given. proved propulsive efficiency which attends the lower speed of revolu tion of the propellers.
The influence of the type of fuel and the large boiler units is parti cularly striking in the ease of the torpedo boat destroyer class of
8,000 sq. ft. and evaporating water, vessel, in which are fitted boiler units having a heating surface of at the rate of 18lb. per square foot" of heating surface per hour. Horo installations of 97,000 sh.p. are produced for a total machinery weight including water of 331b. per s.h.p., and they operate at sea with
total engine-room complement
of 28.
The problems connected with the use of oil fuel had been solved to of its more extended application a sufficient extent in 1907 to permit
when the occasion
arose. This
satisfactory state of affairs was the result of steady and patient ex- dimental carsblishments not the
work closing years of the 19th century. That work proceeded from the scanty experience available at that time through all the possible means of atomization by means of steam, sir, and oil pressure until an effi eient system of the last-named type was evolved, and which remains in
use.
