Covering the syllabuses in Applied Heat for all classes of the Marine Engineers' Certificates of Competency of the Department of Transport (DTp), this book should be a useful aid to students on BTEC and SCOTVEC engineering courses. Basic principles are dealt with, commencing at a fairly elementary stage. Each chapter has fully worked examples woven into the text, test examples are set at the end of each chapter, and some typical exam questions are included.

PRICE, Anthony

This book contains invaluable reference tables and maths formulae for trainee and professional marine engineers.Focussing on subjects most commonly required in mechanical and marineengineering (including a section on naval architecture), the formulaeare graduated to cover the subjects at all stages from technician levelto degree, from cadet level to the Extra First Class Certificate. After each subject, there are blank pages in which extra design dataand formulae can be added, and where the understanding of basicconcepts is particularly essential, the text includes extra definitionsand notes, all of which helps to create a user-friendly and practicalresource.

Reeds Maritime Meteorology breaks down maritime meteorology and its principles for trainee deck officers and fishermen with numerous explanatory photos and diagrams.
Reeds Maritime Meteorology is written primarily for serving and trainee deck officers, those studying for certificates of competency in merchant ships and for fishermen. It provides descriptions of the elements and forces which contribute to maritime meteorology and the principles which govern them, and deals specifically with:
- weather forecasting at sea and the use of fax, navtex and saltellite technology - ocean currents and swell - tropical revolving storms - the development and distribution of sea ice - weather routeing - passage planning - the management and care of cargo in heavy weather
There is an extensive glossary, revision questions at the end of each chapter, and a fold-out chart of ocean currents as well as numerous explanatory photos and diagrams. For this revised edition, the content and website addresses have been updated.

This book presents the principles covered by the DoT examination papers in Engineering Knowledge, Instruments and Control Systems for Masters (foreign-going). It also briefly revises the General Physics for Second Mate syllabus which is included in the Master's examination. Although intended primarily for Masters, it will provide all deck and engineering officers and cadets with an understanding of basic engineering and control systems used on merchant vessels. It covers most of the BTEC requirements, as well as the National Diploma in Maritime Technology.

The groundbreaking reference on high speed racing techniques--the bible for racing sailors of all levels and abilities from dinghies to the America's Cup.
High Performance Sailing has become the standard reference work on high speed racing techniques. Groundbreaking in its thinking on boat speed, strategy and tactics, and timeless in its application, this second edition has been brought right up to date with new information, the discoveries from new boat testing and new developments.
Some people like to sail. Some people like to sail fast. This is a book about sailing faster. During the past few decades there has been a revolution in the way some boat designers and sailors have thought about, designed, built and sailed their boats. This book is about the new ideas which have led to these greater speeds and the faster sailing techniques which have been developed to achieve them.
"It is the cheapest bit of go-faster gear you can buy..."--Robert Lloyd, Island Sailing Club
"One of the most readable books on the complex subject of sailing faster, and without doubt, a must for every racing sailor"--Yachts and Yachting
