battleships for my 4th reich AKA New World United Community

Hey I am trying my hardest here this is the first engine blueprint I have ever done on computer

Look, I'm going to be as polite as I can be - you've blundered right into my degree field (Thermo and Fluid Dynamics).

Your design won't work.

When we worked on open loops in class, we treated water as incompressible - because it's a pain to compress.

Might I suggest you take a look at some real waterjets. They more closely match the hydroelectric turbines than aircraft turbines:

Words mean things. Blueprints are engineering drawings. They display and express refined concepts that are representative of real-world physics and based on careful and considered calculations.

This bitmap, um... isn't that.

Im going to be as polite as possible now, but after a 6 pages worth of dubious discussions and kitchen-physichs, I like to recap the OP about the purpose of this forum, and this sub-forum specially; "This is a forum for newbies and beginners to post their first designs. Anything can be posted here but it must all be shipbucket-style." Now, I think we've allowed you to wiggle enough, but now its really time to start producing those SB drawings. This is not do-it-your-self-shipengineering-forum, but forum for SB drawings, and for SB artists. Everything else is redutant and surplus. So If the next addition to this thread is something else than those Shipbucket drawings, Im going to instruct the staff to close this thread.

here is the picture but I am still editing it

[LordBladaime]

is it okay for me to make the ship longer than she is right now?

[acelanceloet]

you can do what you want with it, but fact is that she is already larger then the largest floating construct ever existing, that being the shell prelude currently under construction.

[Blackbuck]

Well considering you seem to have no understanding of structural strength or for that matter feasibility, sure go ahead. Paint it pink too

[LordBladaime]

why are you making fun of me?

[acelanceloet]

we are not making fun of you. we are, however, making fun of ship that is near impossible to build and which has no good reason to be build either.
