A nuclear-powered naval vessel uses nuclear energy to power its propulsion system
and is constructed with a nuclear power plant placed inside a section of the ship, which
is coded as the reactor compartment. The components of the nuclear power plant
include a high-strength steel reactor vessel, heat exchanger, steam generator, and
associated piping, pumps, and valves. Each nuclear reactor plant contains over 100
tons of lead shielding, a part of which is made radioactive through contact with a
radioactive material or by neutron activation of impurities in lead.
