Principal problems which have had to be solved in past few years, and are considered, are welded design, combustion of heavy fuels, turbocharging of large 2-stroke engines, and further increase of output by adoption of large cylinder bores; attention is also given to measures and devices for facilitating overhaul work, cylinder liner wear, crankcase contamination, fuel viscosity and costs, and question of steam vs diesel. From paper before Inst Mar Engrs. (see also abstract in Motor Ship v 42 n 490 May 1961 p 72-5)
