Lamb's Q&A Marine Diesel Engines (8th ed)

A reference book for marine engineers and all seeking a working knowledge of the marine diesel engine. This fully revised eighth edition has been completely rewritten. New coverage includes super-longstroke and slow-speed engines, and a new generation of medium-speed engines burning lower quality fuels. New purifier systems for fuel treatment, and the testing of fuel and lubricating oils on board ships are also discussed.
