ELECTRIC PROPULSION OF SHIPS.

Marine engineers, from long association with the dow.running reciprocating engine," hatë become so accustomed to apply the energy of the prime mover direct to ship propulsion that the posals which have been put forward ta between the prime mover and the propellera an auxillary mechanism-electrical or otherwise-by which speed variation may be obtained, bus antil recently appeared to them to be a needless complication. It is now recognizel, however, says the Times Engineering Supple ment that the speed conditions under which the steam tubine gives its highest efficiency are not these which give anything like the highest efficiency of the propellers, and therefore with the direct drive a compromise in design has had to adoptel. Borerai methods have been proposed by which this might be schiered, and the results, under service conditions, of the com. bination system of turbines and reciprocating engines were described in. The Timea Enginee Ling Supplement of August 11. For some years past many experimentere have been giving their attention to the wolution of an electric system

in marine work, whick system employs a high- speed turbine ranning at a uniform velocity for all speeds of the ship, and driving a dyname from which electric power is supplied to variable speed motors direct coupled to propeller shafts, Which, ander these circumstances, can be design. ed to give maximum efficiency. Hitherto the use of doctricity for marine propulsion het been confined to quite small craft.

In this country the names of Mr. William P. Durtnall and Mr. H. A. Maver have been associated with the development of the electric. drive for marine propulsion. In his first system, Mr. Dartall proposed to use continnens current, but in his latest system, the "Paragon," polyphae current inschinery is omployed in association with the coapection with speed enge induction

motor, the

variation being culty in

it is claimed, now overcome. This is accomplished in the Dutnull By his special design of variable periodity system, generator the speech may be varied

so that with the steam turbared accordingly,

running at constant speed of 8,000 r.p... the speed of the propeller shaft can be varied either. ahead or astern from 27, 54, 80 p.m.p, or any other speed that, may be desired. In a design for Q cargo boat being got out the propeller speeds are to be 27, 45, and 80 r.p.m

Anotable feature of this motor is it has no rubbing contact, the work being dons. that by magnetic induction across the sir gap of the moter. On

a recmt visit to the works of Messrs. Mayor and Coulson, an opportunity was afforded of seeing a working model of the Spinner motor, which has been devised to overcome the diffulty of speed variation, This is

is achieved by a concentric combination of two alternating current motors of the squirrel cage type. Any oneof three speeds are obtained in each direction of rotation without the use of redistances, and with the main generater running at constant speed. The controlling gear contists simply of two reversing switches, one for each element of the combined moter, The system line bein worded out in detail for typical cases, including a 21-knot passenger ship of 16,200 shaft h.p.. 16-knot passenger boat, an intermediate rossel of 14 kaots, and a nine-knot cargo steamer, the last two vessels to be fitted with internal com- bustion engines.

Speed variation is obtained through n regulating switch, which, by altering the voltage" to the exciting field magnet of the alternator, gives varying voltage to the motors, thereby | varying their speed.

Although, the pressing problem in the case of the steam turbine is to devise a method by which it can be commercially applied to the tramp class of

resol, it will be noted that electrical" power transmission is capable of being employed with advantage in high-speed warships, and fast. lipers. M Dartnell has put forward a calcula- tion that, by reason of the saving in steam per shaft horse power, electrical power transmission would in the case of the Dreadnought affect an obomy, of 20 per cent. as well as ebriate the need for the employment of with consent saving of weighing turbines, The

saving to be realized at a maximum of 40 per cent, and that the capital expenditure will be

less.

It is now known, from the experience gaired with the Oak, that the recipro-turbine ship effects a saving of about 12 per cent Shig owners will wait with keen anticipation the results of early trials of electrical power trans- mission in marine work.
