What reading level is The Electric Propulsion of Ships book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Mauretania and 48 THE ELECTRIC PROPULSION OF SHIPS Lusitania have two high-pressure and two low-pressure turbines, and two reversing turbines, working on four shafts. According to the best information obtainable, the high-pressure turbines have each 128 double rows of blades, and the low-pressure turbines 60 double rows each. The total length of the blading, exclusive of the rela- tively small amount in the reversing turbines, is about 115 miles, and the total surface area of the blades is ...considerably more than three-quarters of an acre, or equal to the sail area of a large ship. By using the reduction gear, the same total propulsive power could be installed in three turbines. There is nothing problematical about this statement, as turbines developing the requisite power, and of the same general design as would, in connection with the reduction gear, be suited to marine work, have been operating successfully for a long time, and their power and economy are now matters of authentic record.
