Abstract

In this paper, the author ambitiously attempts to deal with various nickel alloys applied in shipbuilding and marine engineering in a very wide scope. In each section, the general properties of the metals referred to are explained and discussed metallurgically and physically with illustrations, and special references are given for practical application.Comparisons and remarks are made for various steel materials adopted for the hull construction including high elastic limit steels not containing nickel, and for ferrous and non-ferrous nickel alloys used in the marine engine and turbine construction with special references to turbine blades, propellers, condensers etc.In conclusion, the importance of nickel in engineering and that of the research for substitute alloys are discussed and the speedy establishment of a sound policy on nickel in Japan is suggested.The contents of the paper are as follows : -
