Effects of the USS Thresher disaster upon submarine safety and deep-submergence capabilities in the United States NavyCallaghan, Philip Martin January 1987 (has links)
The loss of the nuclear-powered submarine USS Thresher (SSN 593) acted as a catalyst that accelerated improvements in submarine design, construction and operations. Such improvements resulted in a substantially safer submarine force, thereby making it more operationally reliable. The disaster also dramatically increased the influence of Admiral Hyman G. Rickover in submarine development by giving him the opportunity to promote the system of management he used as head of the U.S. Navy's Nuclear Propulsion Branch. During Congressional hearings on the loss of the Thresher, Rickover convinced members of the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy that his management system, based upon stringent standards of quality control and principles of engineering, was the standard that should be applied to submarine development. The disaster also highlighted the need for greatly improved deep-submergence capabilities within the fleet. Subsequently, deep-ocean search, location and recovery assets were developed, as well as improved deep-sea rescue capabilities. / M.A.

Maintenance practices for emergency diesel generator engines onboard United States Navy Los Angeles class nuclear submarinesHawks, Matthew Arthur 06 1900 (has links)
CIVINS / The United States Navy has recognized the rising age of its nuclear reactors. With this increasing age comes increasing importance of backup generators. In addition to the need for decay heat removal common to all (naval and commercial) nuclear reactors, naval vessels with nuclear reactors also require a backup means of propulsion. All underway Navy nuclear reactors are operated with diesel generators as a backup power system, able to provide emergency electric power for reactor decay heat removal as well as enough electric power to supply an emergency propulsion mechanism. While all commercial nuclear reactors are required to incorporate muhiple backup generators, naval submarine nuclear plants feature a single backup generator. The increasing age of naval nuclear reactors, coupled with the dual reqmrements of a submarine's solitary backup generator, makes the study of submarine backup generators vital. / CIVINS / US Navy (USN) author
