In fact the reactor vessel abutted the bulkhead on the forward side, and the pump assembly on the after side The pump circulated water in and out of the reactor The saturated steam went into the steam-generator, where it ran through an interface There its heat caused water in the 'outside' or non-radioactive loop to flash to steam, which then turned the submarine turbine engines (in turn driving the propeller through reduction gears) The 'inner loop' steam, with most of its energy lost, then ran through a condenser that was cooled by seawater from outside the hull, and was pumped as water back into the bottom of the reactor vessel for reheating to continue the cycle The steam-generator and condenser were actually the same large structure, and the same multi-stage pump handled all of the circulation This one mechanical object was the acoustical Achilles heel of all nuclear-powered ships The pump had to exchange vast quantities of water that was 'hot' both thermally and radioactively Doing that much mechanical work had always meant making a large amount of noise Until now
