Q

Safety Related Functions

2

A

1) The CVCS shall be capable of making and holding the core subcritical from any standby or hot operating condition.

2) The CVCS shall be capable of making the core subcritical under
credible accident conditions, w/ appropriate margins for
contingencies, and limiting and subsequent return to power such
that there will be no undue risk to the health and safety of the
public.

Q

Effects of loss of IA on CVCS

4 responses

A
  1. Letdown is isolated (valves fail closed) [CVC-200a/b/c and LCV-460A/B]
  2. Charging to loops fail open CVC-310A/B as does HCV-121
  3. All AOV’s in makeup control fail shut except for the boric acid to blender valve FVC-113A.
  4. Excess Letdown inoperable.

Q

Letdown Stop Valves (LCV-460 A and B)

A
  • From Loop 1 cold Leg
  • Fail close loss of air, or DC power

Q

Regen heat exchanger

A
  • Charging through tubes, should be within 50F of RCS temp.
  • 547F to 290F Letdown flow temp change
  • 130F to 290F Charging flow temp change

Q

Letdown orifices and flows

A
  • A 45gpm
  • B,C 60gpm
  • Reduces PSIG from 2235 to 300. (Controlled by PCV-145 setpoints)
  • Max Letdown flow is 120gpm to prevent channeling of demineralizer resin.

Q

Letdown Line Isolation Stops (CVC-204 A, B)

location

A
  • Fail closed
  • Shut on Phase A
  • Have needle valves in air supply lines designed to shut valves after 200s to prevent lifting the relief 203s
  • In pipe ally

Q

Non-Regen Heat Exchanger

A
  • Letdown through tubes, CCW through shell

- TCV-144 (fails open) on CCW outlet side from TE-144 controls outlet temp between 100-115F

Q

(PCV-145)
Low Pressure Letdown Valve
Location

A
  • Maintains 300psig upstream.
  • Fails open
  • First floor non-regen room.
17
Q

CVC-209

Low Pressure Letdown relief Valve

A
  • Set at 200psig
  • relieves to the VCT
  • between PCV-145 and TCV-143
18
Q

Demin Beds

A
  • Mixed beds (LIOH normally in service and HOH) 120gpm
  • Cation bed, limited to 60gpm, reduces lithium concentration

19
Q

CVC-244

Deborating Demin valve

A

-Fails to VCT

20
Q

22
Q 
VCT (gas inlets and outlets)
PCV-119 
PCV-118
PCV-117
PCV-199
A
