Reactor and primary and secondary system design analyses of a prepackaged nuclear power plant are presented. The plant is of the pressurized water steam-electric generating type which is air transportable skid mounted and suitable for a remote site installation. The plant design incorporates the maximum degree of reliability and simplicity and the minimum degree of maintenance and cost. The plant is capable of producing a gross electrical output of 1000 kw(e) and 5 x 10/sup 6/ Btu/hr for space heating. The primary system generates a total of 6.5 Mw of heat in order to supply the required electrical and heating load. (W.D.M.)
