EOP Second Part 2 Flashcards
What are the Entry Conditions for E-3?
- ) SG Tubes Not Intact (E-0)
- ) Secondary Rad Abnormal
- ) SG Level Rises Uncontrollably
- ) In ECA-3.3 when PRZ Pressure control is restored.
E-3 Major Action Categories?
- ) 1. Identify / Isolate Ruptured SG
- ) Cooldown to get margin for Subcooling
- ) Depressurize to match S/G press and restore RCS level
- ) Terminate SI
- ) Prepare to Cool Down to RHR.
What are the E-3 Transitions?
All 3 Series ECA and ES Procedures.
What is The DP Maintained Between Intact and Ruptured SG in E3?
250lbs DP is maintained to ensure SC while the primary to secondary leakage is stopped.
What is the preferred order for INITIALLY depressurizing in E3?
- ) Normal Spray
- ) PRZ PORV
- ) Aux Spray (IF LD In Service)
What is the preferred order for BALANCING SG and RCS Pressure in E3?
- ) Normal Spray
- ) Aux Spray
- ) PRZ PORV
What is the Radiological concern with Iodine in a SGTR?
Iodine concentrates in the SG while steaming. (Iodine Partitioning) This becomes an even larger problem if the SG is overfilled.
How is SG Overfilling Prevented in E-3?
Isolating Ruptured SG, Cool Down and Depressurize RCS, and then Terminate SI.
What are the concern with overfilling a SG?
- MS Line not designed for weight of water and water hammer.
- PORVs, Safeties, and TDAFP NOT designed for water.
What is done to the Ruptures SG PORV?
The ruptured SG PORV setpoint is raised to 1040lbs to limit the release and maintain DP to intact SGs.
What is the minimum lvl establish in a ruptured SG?
13% NR to ensure the SG tubes are covered. This also ensures a separation of the steam space from the tubes to prevent condensation and SG Pressure from lowering.
What is the cool down rate in E-3?
MAXIMUM.
- -Dumps (If available)
- -Intact SG PORVS
What is unique about the RCP Trip Criteria in E-3?
RCPs are not tripped when RCS Press <1300lbs IF Cool Down has been started.
What is the basis for the target temperatures for the cool down in E-3?
Maintain at least 20 Deg Sub Cooling for SI Reinitiation.
What is the Concern with The cold Leg Temps on Nat Circ?
There is a possibility of false CL indications on Loops with a SGTR. Tcold indication on this loop is disregarded for Integrity CSF.
