MACHINERY SYSTEMS AND CONTROL CONSIDERATIONS, APPENDIX 15

Abstract

Consideration is given to equipment and procedures that will provide submarine machinery for propulsion, auxiliary, and hotel service that will be characterized by: (1) low maintenance afloat; (2) reduce surveillance afloat; (3) failsick in place of fail-dead characteristic; (4) reduced man-hours and down time for most probable service; (5) reduced skillto operate, supervise, trouble-shoot, and replace; (6) reduced apparent complexity thru packaged co ponents and functions; (7) enhanced efficiency to prolong cruises; and (8) capability to operate at all speeds at all depths and under high shock loads.
