Légende
Steam turbines fitted into the Dover packet boat 'Queen', 1904. The turbines were designed by the Anglo-Irish engineer Sir Charles Parsons (1854-1931). Parsons first demonstrated the steam turbine in his vessel the 'Turbinia' in 1897. The invention revolutionised marine transport, making ships capable of much higher speeds than had previously been possible. From La Nature. (Paris, 1904).
