Do Laval furnished the Navy Department, Bureau of Yards and Docks, two 11,500 kw De Laval Turbine Generators to supplement power requirements for the island of Cuam, headquarters for ship repairs and de* fense activities in the Pacific. These AIEE*ASME Stand ard Units operate at 600 psi, 82SF. They have been on the job more than a year. Service record? Excellent. More than a half century of experience lies behind modem De Laval Turbine Generators. In fact, the first unit of this type ever .installed in America--la t&k had a De Laval nameplate. De Laval engineers and hands at making turbines that are high on perforousee tow on maintenance. You benefit by De Laval's quality design stanivd in a wide range of other power plant products--Wl feed pumps, 1MO fuel oil pumps, circulating pumps and condensate pumps. Consult your De Uj* Engineer on your specific applications. DE IAVAL I Turbine Generator cm l.

Here's why: Back in Nov 1951 (pp 162, 164) Power reported a big step forward in the art of hydrogen cooling. Celled "super charging,* this idea involve* forcing hydrogen al high velocities through the generator conductors, where the heat originates. It promises drastic reduction In physical sice of' generators, making it possible to visualize much greoter capacities'in a single unit than ever before. One fulfillment of the promise can be aeen in the scale modela photographed above. By this dramatic comparison, Allis-Chalmers engineers show what happens to the site of a standard hydrogencooled generator when supercharged cooling la applied to both rotor and stator. And, wo might add, a new excitation ayatem cuts down the size of the exciter as well. We like this picture because it demonstrates an important thing about technical magazines in general and our favorite magazine in particular. A big, end exciting, part of our job la running down the significant new developments In the power field end keeping you continuously informed of, them. And this photo reveals, far' better than words, how such developments pay off. CHASINO BTU's isn't much like choaing a tennis ball, but Howard McCall man age* to do well et both. A ranking tennis player, he's also a top-drawer specialist in healing, ventilating and drying. First with Sturtevant Division of Wesiinghouse, and now as Industrial engineer with J O Boss Eogrg Corp, Howard has piled up a lot of know- how In the art of rooking etch Btu deliver full value. He passes along some of this savvy on pp .84-85. Twin interests in sports and engi neering got off to a flying start at Howard McCall Georgia Tech, but were interrupted by a stint as an ensign In the U.S. Navy. Back in civvies, Howard resumed competitive tennis, secured hi# professional engineer license, became a member of ASHVE and the Georgia Engrg Society. Now married, he admits to some new interest*--gardening and being proud father to three youngsters. AB$ UT_
