Marine Auxiliary Machinery (Hardcover, 7th Revised edition)

Designed to instruct both students and sea-going engineers in the operation, care and maintenance of the auxiliary machinery and apparatus on board ship, this text is suitable for marine engineers preparing for British Certificates of Competency examinations, US Licences and similiar qualifications elsewhere. Subject treatment is descriptive and practically-orientated, but with suficient theoretical background which should enable the reader to understand the principles involved. This approach should allow the book to serve as a reference for engineers in the shipbuilding and equipment manugfacturing industries, as well as all sea-going engineers.
