GOOD STUFF DEESUN. working in the ports i have been lucky enough to see some of these engines.they are 3 story's high i think they're rev range is something like 2rpm - 80rpm. the ships normally have about 5 smaller generator engines as well each about 1/5th the size of the main. equally impressive they produce enough electricity to supply the sydney cbd. thes things are incredible .good post
