Sorry, I neglected one point of your post because it is so much a part of normal or emergency operation as to require no thought ... of course the throttle is closed prior to changing direction, no marine steam engine is routinely started at full throttle. The shaft speed may not change much when and as the throttle is closed rapidly but closing the throttle is part of the sequence of operation. Rick Thanks. That was/is the point I was looking for. otn |
