Aux Building HVAC (HA) Flashcards
What is the normal & essential HVAC used for ?
-Normal HVAC maintains environmental condition for personnel comfort & equipment operability during normal operation
-Essential HVAC serves ESF equipment rooms & safety related Aux Feed Pump Rooms
What’re the functions of the HA system ?
-Maintains slight negative pressure
-control air flow from areas of low airborne radioactivity to progressively higher airborne radioactivity
-Filters the exhaust air prior to discharge atmosphere
What subsystems do the Normal HVAC consist of ?
-Aux. Building Supply Air
-Aux. Building Exhaust Air
-Access Control Area
-Charging Pump Room
-CEDM Recirculation
What rooms have Essential ACUs from Essential HVAC system?
-HPSI Pump Room
-LPSI Pump Room
-CS Pump Room
-EW Pump Room
-Aux. FW Pump Room
-ESF Electrical Penetration Rooms
What is the normal operation of Aux. Building Supply Air system ?
Outside air is filtered, cooled, & heated by AHU which is then supplied to different rooms, the treated air from AHU is supplied to Normal Access ACU
What is normal operation of Aux. Building Exhaust Air system ?
-Within building air flows from potential low radioactivity to higher radioactivity areas
-Continuously exhausted by Normal Exhaust Air Filtration Units
Where is air from the Access Control Room exhausted to ?
It’s exhausted through Aux.Building Normal exhaust Air Filtration Units
What happens to Aux Building Normal HVAC during a LOP & SIAS ?
ESF equipment rooms & safety related Aux Feedwater Pumps are isolated from Aux.Building Normal HVAC
Following a SIAS how is negative pressure maintained below 100’ once isolated from normal HVAC system ?
-Negative pressure maintained by Fuel Building Air Filtration Unite provided
-Air from ESF equip. Room flows through connecting tunnel to fuel building AFU where it’s filtered & released to atmosphere
What is the HA system Fire Damper Configuration ?
What is the capacity of each Normal Supply AHU?
-Rated at 50% capacity(29,200)
What cooling water is sent through the Normal AHU cooling coils ?
Normal chilled water is sent through cooling coils
Where is each AHU heater installed at ? What is it used for ?
What is the common header pneumatically operated isolation damper interlocked with ?
It’s interlocked to open/close when fans are started/stopped
Where are AHU operated from ?
They’re operated from control room & equipped with interlock to ensure number of running AHUs is less than normal exhaust AFUs
