🔍 Key Concepts

• Prime mover vs. auxiliary machinery roles aboard ship • How single-shaft gas turbines are commonly matched to ship propulsion arrangements • Difference between propulsion turbines and ship service generators/auxiliary units

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When ship designers choose a single propulsion shaft, what type of ship arrangement is that usually describing? • Which option describes something that is driven directly to turn the propeller, versus something that mainly provides electrical power or support functions? • Think about which arrangements (single-screw vs multi-screw) are typically paired with one gas turbine on one shaft.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are propulsion applications and which are electrical/auxiliary applications. • Match the idea of a single shaft to the most logical propulsion arrangement in the answer choices. • Make sure the choice you pick would be the main engine driving the ship through the water, not just supplying electrical or backup power.
