Windage losses are reduced by fitting the astern turbine in the lowest area available exhaust end of the astern casing.

also by fitting hood over the last stage of astern and ahead blades

also by fitting astern turbine in its own casing

What is a marine turbine?

One sort of marine turbine is used in tidal power generation. At high tide the tidal water collects behind a barrier. When the tide goes out, the only way for the water in the enclose to go back out is through turbines. Thus, in ebbing, the sea water drives the turbines which can be used to generate electricity.

What is cancelling returns only in marine hull?

Cancelling returns only in marine hull refers to a specific clause in marine insurance policies that limits the insurer's liability to cover only the direct losses incurred due to the insured event, without accounting for any potential returns or refunds from the insured party. This clause is designed to prevent the policyholder from claiming losses that could be offset by returns or recoveries. It effectively ensures that the insurer only pays for the net loss after accounting for any returns or recoveries related to the insured risk.

What is the difference between engine and NAUTICAL engine?

MARINE engines are designed to fit into boats and ships for propulsion units. They often drive a crank shaft, or in the case of turbine are connected to a reduction gear, which is coupled to the propeller shaft. Marine engines (piston) are often mounted vertically rather than horizontal to save space. Marine turbines are often smaller for the same horsepower output, and operate at higher speeds than power plant turbines to produce that horsepower.
