The "Constitution" of To-day Electrically Propelled
THE U. S. S. "New Mexico," the first
battleship of any nation to be electri
cally propelled, is one of the most important
achievements of the scientific age. She not
only develops the maximum power and,
with electrical control, has greater flexibility
of maneuver, which is a
distinct naval advantage,
but also gives greater econ
omy. At 10 knots, her
normal cruising speed, she
will steam on less fuel than
the best turbine-driven ship
that preceded her.
Figures that tell the
Story of Achievement
The electric generating
plant, totaling 28,000 horse
power, and the propulsion equipment of the
great super-dreadnaught were built by the
General Electric Company. Their operation
has demonstrated the superiority of electric
propulsion over old-time methods and a
wider application of this principle in the
merchant marine is fast making progress.
Lenglh 624 feet
Width 97 feet
Displacement 32,000 tons
Fuel capacity million gal
tons (fuel oil)
Power 28,000 electrical horse
power Speed 21 knots
Six auxiliary General Electric Turbine-Generators
of 400 horsepower each, supply
power for nearly 500 motors, driving pumps,
fans, shop machinery, and kitchen and laun
dry appliances, etc
Utilizing electricity to propel ships at sea
marks the advancement of
another phase of the elec
trical industry in which the
General Electric Company
is the pioneer. Of equal
importance has been its
part in perfecting electric
transportation on land,
transforming the potential
energy of waterfalls for use
in electric motors, develop
ing the possibilities of electric lighting and
many other similar achievements.
As a resuit, so general are the applications
of electricity to the needs cf mankind that
scarcely a home or individual today need
be without the benefits of General Electric
products and service.
