PART IV-AUXILIARY MACHINERY 

 AND EQUIPMENT 



Chapter 14 Piping, Fittings, and Valves 



Chapter 15 Pumps and Forced Draft Blowers 



Chapter 16 Auxiliary Steam Turbines 



Chapter 17 Compressed Air Plants 



Chapter 18 Distilling Plants 



Chapter 19 Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Plants 



Chapter 20 Shipboard Electrical Systems 



Chapter 21 Other Auxiliary Equipment 



The chapters included in this part of the text deal with the auxiliary 

 machinery and equipment of the shipboard engineering plant. Some of 

 the units and plants described here are directly related to the operation 

 of the major units of propulsion machinery; others may be regarded as 

 supporting systems. Major emphasis in this part of the text is on the 

 auxiliary machinery and equipment found on conventional steam-driven 

 ships; however, a substantial amountof the information given here applies 

 also to ships with other kinds of propulsion plants. 



It should be noted that diesel engines, gasoline engines, and gas 

 turbine engines-all of which may be used to drive auxiliary machinery 

 and equipment-are not included here. These units are discussed in part 

 V of this text.
