Abstract :
A nuclear reactor plant intended for marine service must be designed to accommodate the unique features of that environment. The items considered unique to a maritime reactor include the following: 1. Ship motions of roll, pitch, heave, sway, yaw, and surge. 2. Vibration of ship\´s hull. 3. Design for protection against ship accidents. 4. Lack of offsite electrical power. 5. Concept of "ship\´s safety" versus "reactor safety." Design problems relating to these and solutions to or programs to provide solutions are presented.
