Description:Excerpt from The Marine Steam Turbine: A Practical Description of the Parsons Marine Turbine as Presently Constructed, Fitted, and Run; Intended for the Use of Students, Marine Engineers, Superintendent Engineers, Draughtsmen, Works' Managers, Foremen Engineers, and Others The German and other Continental engineering experts who criticised adversely the adoption of turbines for the Atlantic pas senger service are now compelled to admit their mistake, and this has been recently brought home in a practical manner by means of the yearly balance-sheet of one of the great Continental steamship companies. Foreign navies, notably those of France and Germany, are also largely adopting the turbine for cruiser and battleship design, while in America exhaustive tests are at present being carried out to com pare the respective merits of the Parsons and Curtis type of turbines, which are being run against each other in vessels of identical design and displacement. As regards coal and steam consumption, it has also been demonstrated that, under full power conditions at least, the con sumption is as low and even lower than that of the best modern type reciprocating engine, while at moderate speeds the consumption is only average, and not, as often erroneously assumed, excessive.
