Fundamentals of INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES US NAVY
Year: 1954 Language: English Author: PAUL W. GILL Commander, United States Navy JAMES H. SMITH, JR. Commander, United States Navi) EUGENE J. ZIURYS Associate Professor of Marine Engineering The United States Naval Academy Genre: Educational courses, History / specifications, Military Handbook Publisher: THE UNITED STATES NAVAL INSTITUTE ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND Edition: 4-ED Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages + text layer Pages count: 574 Description: This edition does not differ from the previous one as far as the subject matter is concerned. It does differ, however, in the arrangement of the material presented. There are no longer two distinct parts to the book. In this edition all of the material is arranged in twenty consecutive chapters. Changes and additions where necessary were made throughout the textbook in order to clear up points that were either not apparent or needed additional information to give a better understanding of the subject under discussion. Since the greatest interest was centered, during the past two years, in the fields of gas turbines, jet and rocket engines, the chapters dealing with these types of motors were revised and additional material was added. The chapter on Nuclear Power for Ship Propulsion was completely rewritten. The authors wish to thank Commander W. H. Cullin, USN, for revision of Chapter XVI, Commander John W. Crawford, USN, for the writing of Chapter XX, Lt. W. W. K. Miller, Jr., USN,for revising Chapter XVII, Lt. P. M. Leavy, Jr., USN, for supplying much of the new material used in Chapters XVI, XVII, and XVIII, and to Mr. S. D. Heron, consulting engineer, for his many suggestions. The authors also wish to acknowledge their indebtedness to the instructional staff of the Department of Marine Engineering, United States Naval Academy for their valuable criticisms and help during the course of the revision of this textbook. Acknowledgment is also made to various concerns and authors for the use of their illustrations in the text. Additional info: Copyright, 1951, 1952, 1954 by U. S. Naval Institute Annapolis, Maryland First Edition 1951 Second Edition 1952 Third Edition 1954 Reprinted July 1956 This textbook was prepared primarily for use in the course “Internal Combustion Engines” given to the midshipmen during their first class year at the U. S. Naval Academy. The purpose of the text is to present the basic theory, fundamental principles, and performance characteristics of the three major categories of internal combustion engines, i.e., the spark ignition engine, the compression ignition engine, and the gas turbine. A secondary purpose is to acquaint the student with the nomenclature of the various component parts of these engines, the capabilities and limitations of the various types of power plants, current development trends, and future applications. It is not the purpose of the course, or the text, to produce design engineers or specialists in any one field of propulsion engineering. Such specialized training in a particular field is considered to be graduate work. The text is arranged in two distinct parts. Part I covers the reciprocating types of internal combustion engines, i.e., the compression ignition and spark ignition power plants. The second part of the text is devoted to the gas turbine, particularly as applied to shipboard installations and the jet propulsion field. The latest types of propulsion plants, namely, hydrogen peroxide and nuclear power, are covered briefly.
