原子力船의 安全管理에 對한 考察

A Study on the Safety Supervision of the Marine Nuc1ear Ship

The industrial developement of our country has chiefly depended on the fuel oil in these days. However the amount of the oil deposits under the ground is limited and the oil price is gradually going up. So our country with poor natural resources is in great need of making a long range plan and a countinuous study of the nuclear ship to develop the marine transportation, for it spends a very small quantity of fuel and the price of the nuclear fuel is low. The nuclear ship which is equipped which a nuclear reactor gets its propulsive force by supplying steam to the main propulsion steam turbine. It is different from the power plant reactor in special characteristics that it may meet with rolling, heaving, yawing, and such disasters at sea as impact, fire, stranding, and sinking. So we must consider such special conditions to ensure reactor safety and to protec tlife and property. There are also such dangers an nuclear fission products. and we have difficulty in nuclear fission and its control. Nowadays it still remains to solve some technological problems. Marine reactor may have mechanical accident and reactivity accident, but in this paper I will examine the safety supervision of nuclear ship in connection with the specific characteristics of the ship, for the nuclear ship must have safety and trustworthiness in multiple protection system of marine reactor. In addition, I will briefly enumerate the international laws which are applied to the contruction of the ship and its operation, in preparation for the forthcoming nuclear ship age of our country which doesn't have nuclear ship yet.
