Book Ship Icing Instrumentation

Download or read book Ship Icing Instrumentation written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To gather empirical data on ship superstructure icing upon which to base and verify a computer model that can be used to predict icing events, the U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory was asked by the U.S. Navy David Taylor Ship Research and Development Center to create a prototype system capable of collecting relevant spray and icing data on ship decks during cold-weather cruises. The resulting ship icing instrumentation can be divided into two parts: a video system to obtain a visual record of spray and icing and several stand-alone instrumented units to obtain quantitative data. The units are capable of measuring liquid water content of spray fluxes in either the horizontal or vertical directions, measuring ice accretion in either direction, and monitoring several other parameters such as temperature and power level. Problems associated with salt water rendered most of the spray data collected during a cruise aboard the USCGC Midgett unusable. Some problems with surface roughness may have degraded the ice thickness data. Otherwise, the equipment worked quite well. Further work on using a capacitance gauge to measure salt water levels needs to be conducted before the equipment is redeployed at sea.

Book Submarine Commander

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paul R. Schratz
  • Publisher : University Press of Kentucky
  • Release : 2013-07-24
  • ISBN : 0813143624
  • Pages : 340 pages

Download or read book Submarine Commander written by Paul R. Schratz and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2013-07-24 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating personal memoir of underwater combat in World War II, told by a man who played a major role in those dangerous operations. Frank and beautifully written, Submarine Commander's breezy style and irrepressible humor place it in a class by itself. This book will be of lasting value as a submarine history by an expert and as an enduring military and political analysis. In early 1943 the submarine USS Scorpion, with Paul R. Schratz as torpedo officer, slipped into the shallow waters east of Tokyo, laid a minefield, and made successful torpedo attacks on merchant shipping. Schratz participated in many more patrols in heavily mined Japanese waters as executive officer of the Sterlet and the Atule. At war's end he participated in the Japanese surrender, aided the release of American POWs, and had a key role in the disarming of enemy suicide submarines. He then took command of the revolutionary new Japanese submarine I-203 and returned it to Pearl Harbor. But this was far from the end of Schratz's submarine career. In 1949 he commissioned the ultramodern USS Pickerel, the most deadly submarine then afloat, and set a world's record in a 21-day, 5,200-mile submerged passage from Hong Kong to Honolulu. With the outbreak of the Korean War, the Pickerel was immediately sent to Korea to participate in secret intelligence operations only recently declassified and never before revealed in print. Schratz's broad military experience makes this a far from ordinary memoir.
