The Development of Transport-Ship Power Installations during the Years of Soviet Administration (Razvitiye Energeticheskikh Ustanovok Transportnykh Sudov Za Gody Sovetskoy Vlasti),
Abstract
The creation of high-tonnage tankers and fast dry-cargo freighters has become possibly only with the appearance of more powerful combined boiler-and-turbine units and diesel installations; the development of hydrofoil and air-cushion ships depends upon compact, light-weight gas-turbine and diesel installations; the mastery of nuclear energy has made possible the creation of qualitatively new ships. It may be stated that during the years of Soviet rule, on the basis of efficient planning which combines the requirements of shipbuilding and the practicable possibilities of domestic machine building, all types of modern power-engineering ship installations were created for maritime, fishing, and river ships.
