Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4157491
A design and economic analysis is presented for a 44,000 DWT tanker utilizing a 27,300 shp direct cycle boiling water reactor propulsion systein. Included are design descriptions and drawings, estimates of operating and capital costs for the reference ship, estimates of long range potential, descriptions of required research and development programs, a preliminary safeguards analysis, an analysis of effects of ship's motion on boiling water reactor performance, a summary reactor physics analysis, and a discussion of direct cycle accessibility considerations. Also included are summary descriptions for various design alternatives which were considered. (auth)
