1951 - 1815.PDF
Flight, 7 September 1951 Working for Britain9s future... Napiers have been precision engineers since 1808. The name Napier is known throughout the world among people whose business is with high performance engines. Although Napiers' present activities cannot be revealed in detail, the Company has just produced an entirely new type of Aero Engine — combining a diesel piston engine with a gas turbine as a self-contained power unit. The Napier Nomad — a development of world importance — produces 3,000 S.H.P. and 320 lb. thrust. It must be sufficient to say that diesel, gas turbine and marine power plant development in all its aspects is to-day familiar ground to Napier engineers. A Napier Nomad engine will be shown on Stand A at the 1951 S.B.A.C. Exhibition.
