wal WMS.--A mi 7'-N ' if f XXI: WHAT? ME WORRY? I'm o second class oren'T l!'? The Power PIanT BAINBRIDGE is powered by o sTeom propulsion plonT. The energy required To produce The sTeom is generoT- ed by nucleor fission in The core of The ship's Two nucleor reocfors. The energy is Transferred by circulohng primory pressurized wafer Through The reocTor core ond Then To o heof exchanger. Here The energy is used To make The secondory sTeom required To run The ship's sTeom Turbines. The use of o Two-cycle sysfem provides complefe isoloTion beTween The engineroom sTeom ond The reocTor coolonT woTer. The reocTor coolonf gprimory woTer cyciej is pressurized To prevenT boiling. This improves The efficiency of The energy TronsporTaTion rom The reocTor core To The sTeom generoTor. The primory woTer pumped Through sTeom generoTor Tubes heofs cold secondory feed woTer ond Turns iT info sTeom gsecondory wafer cyclej. The secondory sTeom runs eIecTric Turbogenerofors ond moin propulsion Turbines. A Ter possing Through The Trubines, The sTeom is con- drensed back inTol woTer. This wafer is Then pumped inTo The sTeom generoTor To be converTed back info sTeom I e s eom pionT is designed To run os Two independenf uniTs To increose boTTie reIidbiliTy.
