Updated Final Safety Analysis Report - (STS-004-002)The main steam lines run from the individual steam drum exit nozzles through a flexible containmentpenetration to the two main steam stop valves located in the upper reactor compartment. The stopvalves are motor operated; the pushbutton control and position indicator lights are mounted in themain control room. A ¾ inch manual bypass valve (with remote position indication) was providedfor heatup purposes.Downstream <strong>of</strong> each main steam stop valve is a 2½ inch auxiliary steam dump line to the auxiliarycondensers. The auxiliary steam dump was controlled by manually operated control valves. Thissystem was not used after acceptance testing.The individual main steam lines pass by way <strong>of</strong> expansion joints through bulkhead 126 and into theengine room, where they join in a common header downstream <strong>of</strong> the manually-operated bulkheadstop valves. Pressure and flow instruments are located in the lower reactor compartment.The main steam passed through the steam separator, a cyclone separator mounted adjacent tobulkhead 126 and then to the main engine throttles, the ship’s service turbine generators, the mainfeed pumps and the main steam dump system. In addition, the main steam was also reduced inpressure for utilization in intermediate and low pressure steam systems. Suitable manual andautomatic steam traps and drains are provided throughout the system to ensure proper steam quality.The main steam dump consists <strong>of</strong> a 6 inch bypass line from upstream <strong>of</strong> the main engine throttle tothe main condenser. A manual shut<strong>of</strong>f valve and manually operated pressure reducing valvecontrolled the main steam dump. Special perforated diffusion nozzles were provided at the maincondenser inlet sections to eliminate direct impingement on the condenser tubes. The system wascapable <strong>of</strong> dumping 190,000 lb/hr into the main condenser. The main steam dump was used onlyduring the initial testing <strong>of</strong> the reactor systems.8.2.2 Auxiliary Steam SystemAll <strong>of</strong> the auxiliary steam system equipment is deactivated, drained, disabled and performs no activefunction.8.2.3 Intermediate Pressure Steam SystemAll <strong>of</strong> the intermediate pressure steam system equipment is deactivated, drained, disabled andperforms no active function.8.3 Main Propulsion SystemAll <strong>of</strong> the main propulsion system equipment (including the main throttle assembly, high- and lowpressureturbines and main engine lubrication) is deactivated, disabled and performs no active function.The main propulsion unit is a cross-compound turbine with high pressure and low pressure wheelsdirectly coupled to a double reduction gear <strong>of</strong> conventional design. Steam flow to the propulsion unit iscontrolled by the main throttle assembly. The vacuum on the propulsion unit is maintained by the maincondenser. The main propulsion system also contains auxiliary equipment for system lubrication,overspeed protection and air extraction.8.3.1 High-Pressure TurbineThe high-pressure turbine consists <strong>of</strong> a multistage pressure-compounded impulse turbine. Thebucket wheels are forged integral with the rotor shaft. The shaft is supported radially by two splitsleevebearings and axially by a six-shoe Kingsbury thrust bearing. An external position indicatorpermits an operational check <strong>of</strong> rotor axial position. The turbine casing is horizontally split andRev. VI 74
