Experience with Brown Boveri exhaust turbine working in conjunction with triple-expansion engines in converted ships; power has been increased by at least 27%; plants are claimed to offer particular advantages for voyages in ballast and in heavy seas; quieter operation of reciprocating engine, due to fact that it is permanently coupled to turbine, is particularly noticeable during reversing manoeuvers.
