PARTICULARS OF ENGINES,

The North British Diesel Engine Company are supplying the engines for the twin-screw motor ship "Domala," which is being buit by Messrs. Barclay, Curle and Co., Ltd., for the British India Steam Navigation Company. The ship will be of the combined passenger and cargo type, her deadweight capacity being 10,500 tous, and she will provide accom modation for 100 first class and 50 second class passengers. Her length Over all is 464 feet, and ber depth 35 feet 6 inches.

main bearings. Of circular form, the main bearings are of cast-steel lined with white metal. The cross-head slippers are of the single-sided type.

Box-pistons with a concave crown are adopted and are sea water cooled. They are arranged to be withdrawn either from top or below. Its interesting to note that the cooling water supplied for the pistons is independent of the cooling water for the cylinders; although sea-water is

used for both purposes.

Regarding the seven-day's non-stop full-power rua of the port main engine, every satisfaction was given. Ar the end of the test the engine was manoeuvred several times at full land and finally reduced in speed ta: 28 revolutions per minute, at which speed the cylinders all fred regularly. The table which we give is an average sample of the readings taken on the fall power rum. The brake horse power developed was 2,008 at 98 r.p.m., with a mean-effective pressure of 99 lbs. on a fuel consumption of 0,42 lb. per shaft b.p. hour.
