How much coal did the RMS Titanic have on board when it left England?

The Titanic was a nuclear vessel.... but ran on electricityThe above answer is complete baloney. The data from the white star line shows that;The ship was fitted with 29 boilers and 159 furnaces. (24 double ended boilers and 5 single ended boilers) Over 8,000 tons of coal filled her coal bunkers. The coal fired furnaces heated water in the boilers to generate steam. The steam (215 psi) was then funneled to the tipple expansion engines. Once the steam entered the engine cylinder it created the necessary power to turn the propellers. If the turbine was not in use, such as reverse orders to the helm or entering or leaving port, lost steam would condense in evaporators and the water would be returned to the boilers. Controlling the amount of steam fed to the engines controlled the speed of the ship. Exhaust was vented through Titanic's first 3 funnels, the fourth was a dummy funnel used for ventilation and storage. Many Titanic enthusiasts enjoy pointing out errors in various Titanic movies and artwork by noticing smoke coming from the 4th funnel.


Who built the ovens for Auschwitz and did they also build the boilers for the titanic?

The crematoria (ovens) at Auschwitz were built by J A Topf und Soehne, of Erfurt. The firm has nothing to do with the construction of the Titantic. ___ Yes I saw the blueprints for Auschwitz with Topf & Sons as the builders of the ovens but at that time I heard they were also builders of the boilers which may very well be as they were in exiatance prior to the firest World War
