If you want to better understand the big iron toiling under the deck of you sportfish, pick up a copy of the Complete Guide To Diesel Marine Engines by John Fleming. The book takes you through the ins and outs of diesel power in terms even a landlubber could understand. It explains the hows and whys of diesel engines, but there's also a chapter on the basics of trouble-shooting and another on selecting the right engine for your boat. For the die-hard, there's even a chapter on the mathematics of diesels. If you want a solid understanding of how a diesel operates, this is one hands-on guide to bring aboard.

Since its first appearance in 1950, Pounder's Marine Diesel Engines has served seagoing engineers, students of the Certificates of Competency examinations and the marine engineering industry throughout the world. Each new edition has noted the changes in engine design and the influence of new technology and economic needs on the marine diesel engine. This eighth edition retains the directness of approach and attention to essential detail that characterized its predecessors. There are new chapters on monitoring control systems and governor systems, gas turbines and safety aspects of engine operation. Important developments such as the latest diesel-electric LNG carriers that will soon be in operation. After experience as a seagoing engineer with the British India Steam Navigation Company, Doug Woodyard held editorial positions with the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Institute of Marine Engineers. He subsequently edited The Motor Ship journal for eight years before becoming a freelance editor specializing in shipping, shipbuilding and marine engineering. He is currently technical editor of Seatrade, a contributing editor to Speed at Sea, Shipping World and Shipbuilder and a technical press consultant to Rolls-Royce Commercial Marine. * Designed to reflect the recent changes to SQA/Marine and Coastguard Agency Certificate of Competency exams. Careful organisation of the new edition enables readers to access the information they require * Brand new chapters focus on monitoring control systems and governor systems, gas turbines and safety aspects of engine operation * High quality, clearly labelled illustrations and figures

Excerpt from A Text Book on Marine Motors: Being a Description of Most of the Leading Types of Various Marine Motors as Now Manufactured Practically all the oils that we use for these engines are derived from Petroleum or Rock Oil, which, like coal, is found ready made for us by nature, in a great many countries of the world; our chief supply comes from America and Russia. This petroleum consists of a great many different substances all mixed together, and the first thing the manufacturer does is to fractionally distil it, that is to say, by gradually warming it; first of all the light volatile oils pass off as vapour, and are condensed into suitable receptacles. On an average, American Petroleum contains about 16 per cent. Of these oils, whilst Russian Petroleum only gives 4 per cent. As the heat of distillation is gradually increased, the next substance to come away is what the Americans call kerosine and we here paraffin, that is the oil we use in our ordinary household lamps. American Petroleum gives about 50 per cent. Of this oil, whilst Russian only gives 27 per cent. As the heat of distillation is further increased, the heavy lubricating oils that we use for the cylinders of gas and oil engines, vaseline, and paraffin wax, &c., gradually come away and are separately stored for use. The light oils are now again distilled, and ultimately what we use here for engines, and known as Pratt's Motor Spirit or Petrol, is obtained and sent over here in air-tight tins. These contain two gallons and are sold at an average price of per gallon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The aim of this book, with its superb step by step photographs and detailed diagrams is to enable every owner to understand the workings of an outboard motor (2 or 4 stroke) and be able to fix it with relative ease. It includes: an explanation of the different parts that make up the engine and how they interact; how fuel is transformed into propulsion; regular maintenance and repair worksheets to help even the most mechanically ignorant to work on their outboard engine with confidence; the most common causes of breakdown; troubleshooting tables to allow you to diagnose and fix the most common engine problems and advice on how to winterize your outboard in one short afternoon. After reading this book, your outboard will no longer be a potential bother to you but an ally for better boating.

Developed to complement Reeds Vol 8 (General Engineering for Marine Engineers), this indispensable textbook comprehensively covers the motor engineering syllabus for marine engineering officer cadets. Starting with the theoretical and practical thermodynamic operating cycles, the book is structured to give a description of the engines and components used to extract energy from fossil fuels and achieve high levels of efficiency. Accessibly written and clearly illustrated, this book is the only guide available for marine engineering students focusing on the knowledge needed for passing the motor engineering certificate of Competency (CoC) examinations. This new edition reflects all developments within the discipline and includes updates and additions on, amongst other things: · Engine emissions and control engineering · Fuel injection · Starting and reversing · Ancillary supply systems · Safety and the environment Plus updates to many of the technical engineering drawings.
