Propulsion Plants[edit]

The USS Schofields' nick-name (DEG-3/FFG-3) by at least some of her crew was the "Scuzzy Scho" at least partially due to a tendency for the propulsion system to break down. The boilers operated at 1200 psi vice the typical 600 psi for that era, likely being a contributing cause for above average number of propulsion failures.Obbop (talk) 04:22, 21 August 2010 (UTC) The boilers here and on the Garcia Class were significantly different from other 1200 PSI boilers. They were "pressure" fired; vice have a forced draft blower. They near half the weight of a comparable non pressure fired boiler. They also then had a near double rate of turnover with of the Water- making close monitoring of the boiler water chemistry critical. World War 2 era ships operated at 600 PSI and had controller superheat, 2 side - one for superheat. Post World War II combatants- Cruiser, destroyer and frigates, had 1200 PSI boilers; no Superheat control. Wfoj3 (talk)[reply]
