STUDY OF REMOTE MILITARY POWER APPLICATIONS REPORT NO.11 U. S. NAVAL AIR FACILITY McMURDO SOUND, ANTARCTICA

摘要

Power requirements for this study have been established by the Navy at 3,000 kw of firm power in 1963 and an increase to 4，000 kw of firm power in 1964 (Section III A). Studies indicate that the most suitable type of nuclear power plant to meet the 1963 power requirements would be a complex of three pressurized water reactor power plants of the PM-1 type with a net generating capacity of 1,500 kw each. An additional FM-1 type reactor power plant would be added in 1964 to increase the firm power generating capacity to 4,000 kw (Section III B).
