Its original work was the design of submarine engines but later  to encompass ship engines.[1]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsHistory[edit]Administration[edit]Director Admiralty Engineering Laboratory[edit]Superintendent Admiralty Engineering Laboratory[edit]Superintendent[edit]References[edit]Sources[edit]History[edit]In 1915 the Engineer-in-Chief of the Navy communicated to the Board of Invention and Research his recommendations as to the material and design for submarine engines. Following and experimental engine was built to run through research testing and to identify any potential problems. In 1917 a Royal Naval Laboratory was established in South Kensington, London, England under the supervision of Sir Dugald Clerk as its director its name was later changed to the Admiralty Engineering Laboratory.[2]The research  work of the  Royal Naval Laboratory was initially shared between two separate departments, the Mechanical Engineering Department established in 1917 and the Electrical Engineering Department created later in 1919. In 1920 they transferred to the Sonic Works at West Drayton  and became known as the Admiralty Engineering Laboratory, though collectively a part of the laboratory they remained independent organisations retaining their name and supervised by their own directors. In 1964 overall control of the laboratory was transferred to the Ship Department which was under the supervision of the Director-General Ships at Bath. In 1972 it was absorbed into the National Gas Turbine Establishment. By 1974 it was a subordinate component of the Directorate-General Research Electronics until it was abolished in 1977.[3][4][5]Towards the end of its existence its work focused on research, development, design and testing of electrical systems and machinery andresearching on problems related to modern marine propulsion systems.[6]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Administration[edit]Director Admiralty Engineering Laboratory[edit]1917\u20131919, Sir Dugald ClerkSuperintendent Admiralty Engineering Laboratory[edit]1917\u20131919, Engineer Commander C.
