Q

What is the purpose of the AFW system?

A
  • Maintain a minimum area of heat transfer in the SGs in order to prevent loss of PW through the Pzr Safety or Relief Valves

Q

How will the Unit 1 TDAFP FMOs to SG respond on an auto start signal of a TDAFP?

A
  • U1 TDAFP FMOs will not move from their throttled position
19
Q

How will the Unit 2 TDAFP FMOs to SG respond on an auto start signal of a TDAFP?

A
  • U2 TDAFP FMOs will full open if they are closed
    HOWEVER
  • They will not reposition if they are already throttled on when an auto start signal is received*
20
Q

What powers MCM-221/231 (Steam to TDAFP valve)?

A
  • 600v AC vital bus
  • MCM-221 - 11/21A via AM-A
  • MCM-231 - 11/21D via AM-D
21
Q

What is the trip and throttle valve powered by?

A
  • N-Train
22
Q

What is the TDAFP Turbine oil Cooler and Governor Oil Cooler cooled by?

A
  • TDAFP discharge
23
Q

If you put the TDAFP ELO switch in Manual what will the valve do?

A
  • It will stay open
24
Q

How do the TDAFP ELO fail on loss of air and ctrl power?

A
  • Open
25
Q

Why are the U1 TDAFP outlets to SG valves throttled (FMO-211, 221, 231, 241)?

A
  • Prevent overfill of SGs on the event of a tube rupture
26
Q

Where does the back up water supply to the suction of the MDAFPs come from?

A
  • East ESW Header
27
Q

Where does the back up water supply to the suction of the TDADPs come from?

A
  • West ESW Header
28
Q

What will cause an AMSAC Signal?

A
  • FW Flow < 25% (3/4 feed flows)
29
Q

Opening 1-FW-129 feeds what header from which pump?

A
  • Feeds U1 2/3 SGs (East) from the U2 W MDADP
30
Q

WHat is the T.S. Minimum for the CST and what does it provide?

A
  • 182,000 Gal
  • Maintain the plant in Mode 3 for 9 hours with steam discharge to the atmosphere via PORVS with LOOP.
  • OR-
  • Capability of holding the Unit in MODE 3 for 2 hours followed by a 4 hour cooldown to RHR
31
Q

If the Flow Retention is reset within 45 seconds of AFW Flow Conservation or TDAFP Start signal, what will happen to the AFW FMOs?

A
  • They will re-open
32
Q

Which SG(s) provide steam the TDAFPs?

A
  • 2 and 3 SGs
33
Q

What are the AFW flow retention switches powered from?

A
  • ELSC buss (Train B)

- AFW buss (Train A)

34
Q

What does T.S. 3.7.5D (AFW System) state?

A
  • If 3 AFW trains inoperable in Modes 1-3 (Mode 4 when relied upon for heat removal)
    IMMEDIATELY
  • Initiate action to restore 1 AFW train to Operable status LCO 3.0.3 and other mode changes are suspended until 1 AFW train is restore to Operable status
35
Q

What does T.S. 3.8.4D (AFW System) state?

A
  • If Train N DC electrical power system inoperable in Modes 1-4
    IMMEDIATELY
  • Declare the TDAFW pump inoperable
36
Q

What are the N-Train loads?

A
  • Trip and Throttle Valve
  • Test Valve
  • TDAFP to SG Supply valves

37
Q

How can you tell which way the TDAFP has tripped?

A
  1. Electronic Overspeed

  2. Mechanical Overspeed
    - Overspeed will bring in both alarms. (Drop 10 and 50) But Drop 50 will not clear even if the seal in alarm is reset

Q

What do you do if you have all three AFW Trains Inop?

  • Do NOT enter TS 3.0.3, restore 1 Train Immediately **
42
Q

When is N-Train Required?
