This historic document details the specifications for two horizontal direct-acting compound screw engines designed for the U.S.S. Newark, a 4,000-ton displacement vessel. Prepared by the United States Bureau of Steam Engineering in 1886, the specifications outline the design and performance requirements for each engine and its associated auxiliaries, projecting 4,250 indicated horsepower under forced draught. The document provides invaluable insight into late 19th-century naval engineering practices, engine design, and technological standards. It serves as a valuable resource for historians, engineers, and anyone interested in the evolution of marine propulsion and naval technology. This meticulous description captures the intricate details necessary for constructing and operating advanced steam engines of the era, highlighting the engineering prowess applied to U.S. naval vessels.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
