SHIPPING

A new 19,000 tons twin-screw passenger liner is being built at Glasgow for the P. and O.

The outstanding feature of this vessel is that the machinery is to be of the turbo-electric type. The installation is being supplied by the British Thomson-Houston Co., Ltd., and will consist of two B. T. II turbines of 17,000 8. H. P. coupled to electric generators and motors, all assembled in a common engine room. The main engines will give the vessel an all round speed of about 18 knots on service, and either of the turbines will be Bum- clant to operate both shafts and drive the vessels at a speed of 161% knots, The auxiliariea and the cargo-handling and other deck gear will all be electrically operated and for this separate turbo-generators are provided. The main generators will operate on alternating current and the auxiliaries on direct cur- rent for lighting and heating, and the constant current system for all deck machinery. The boilers are to be of the Yarrow water-tube, working at a pressure of about 400 lb. to the square inch, and will be oil-fired on the Clyde system. In passing, it is interesting to note

which the P. & O. and other lines are developing to such a high pitch of efficiency, she will prove Ideal for the peculiar conditions under which these pleasure voyages are undertaken. From the point of view of the comfort of the passen. gers, the electric drive is ideal. On this ship, for example, reciprocat- ing units will be entirely oliminat- ed.

The successful operation of a ship is a highly complex business, and there are a good many factors which do not always enter into the calculations of, shall we say, an expert salesman. We may, there- fore, rest assured that in breaking away from the traditional quad- ruple-expansion steam engine which has given them service for so many years and entering into a field of marine propulsion of which our marine engineers know little or nathing from actual experience, the F. & O. have been guided by very sound advice, and we shall watch the experiment with the greatest of interest.

It has been said that the turbo- electric drive is of little ren! use to a ship of this character, because she sails at a regular speed.
