To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This thrust is taken by a small external thrust block (Figs. 27 GM and N), so arranged that the bottom half takes any resultant forward thrust, while any resultant astern thrust is trans- mitted by the upper part or cap to the main casing by means of small screws, the position of which is indi- cated in Fig. 276N, and shown later, on the plan at B B in Fig. 277o, and these screws also provide for adjust- ment. Supposing the thrusts under, b, and c are mutually balanced, or in other words that t...he turbine shaft and rotor is balanced in a fore and aft direction, THE MARINE STEAM-TURBINE 285J then the actual thrust on the ship arises from the resultant of thrusts d and e on the casing, which is transmitted through the casing to the holding-down bolts and thence to the ship's structure. This thrust must, however, be equal to the propeller thrust since this is the only external force. If the thrusts a, b, and c do not mutually balance, there remains an unbalanced thrust on the shaft, in a forward or after direction as the case may be, which is taken by the thrust block, and the thrust seating being secured to the turbine casing, the unbalanced thrust is trans- mitted to the ship structure through the casing holding-down bolts together with the resultant of steam thrusts d and e on the casing.
