  • Abstract
    The design of plants for nuclear-powered merchant vessels is predicated on the need for an uninterrupted source of power. The installation of main, auxiliary, and emergency plants, use of automatic devices for generator synchronizing and power-source transfer, and application of special interior communications and alarm systems, unique to nuclear-powered vessels, effectively eliminates the probability of occurrence of complete power loss on the N.S. Savannah
