32
What is the purpose of the Reactor Core Safety Limits?
Prevent overheating of the fuel and cladding, which would result in release of fission products to the RCS if not prevented
33
What is the purpose of the RCS pressure Safety Limits
Prevents over pressurization of the RCS and maintains integrity which then prevents the release of radionuclides contained in the RCS from reaching the cnt atmo
34
What are the Reactor Trips?
1. Overpower ΔT 2. Overtemp ΔT 3. Pzr Pressure high 4. Pzr Pressure low 5. Pressurizer Level High 6. RCP Bus Undervoltage 7. RCP bus underfreq 8. Turbine Trip - Auto Stop Oil # - Turbine Stop Valve Closure 9. SG Level Low Low 10. SG Level Low with ST Flow/Feed Flow Mismatch 11. SI 12. RCS Loop Flow low 13. RCP Bkr position 14. Pwr Range Neutron Flux High - set point 15. Pwr Range Neutron Flux Low - set point 16. Pwr Range High positive rate 17. Intermediate Range Neutron Flux high 18. Source Range Neutron Flux high 19. Manual
35
Can you extend a Surveillance Requirement if its the initial surveillance after the initial event?
No, you can only extend 25% for subsequent surveillances after the initial surveillance has been complete
36
What is the instantaneous amount of reactivity by which the reactor is subcritical or would be subcritical from its present condition assuming a single rod of highest reactivity worth is assumed to be fully withdrawn
Shutdown Margin (SDM)
37
Define Operable/Operability
When a system and all of its aux equipment are capable of performing its specified safety function(s) and related support function(s)
38
The amount of time allowed for completion of a Required Action is the definition of?
Completion Time | Required Actions must be completed prior to the expiration of the specified Completion Time
39
Pursue without delay and in a controlled manner is the definition of?
Immediately
40
Define mode
A MODE shall correspond to any one inclusive combination of: - Core Reactivity Condition (Keff) - Rated Thermal Power (%) - Average Reactor Coolant Temperature (°F) - Reactor vessel head closure bolt tensioning
41
Define Core Alteration
Core Alteration shall be the movement of any fuel, sources, or reactivity control components, within the reactor vessel with the vessel head removed and fuel in the vessel. Suspension of Core Alteration shall not preclude completion of movement of a component to a safe position.
42
Equipment is assumed to be Operable if its what are met? Ref SR 3.0.1
If its SRs are met
43
Equipment is inoperable if? Ref SR 3.0.1
Equipment is Inoperable if - It is known to be inoperable, even if the SRs are current - An SR is known not to be met, even if the SR is between its required performance interval
44
Surveillance Requirements do not have to be performed if?
when the associated LCO is not applicable, unless specifically stated, or on inoperable equipment or variables that are outside limits
45
Do Surveillance Requirements have to be performed following maintenance prior to returning equipment to Operable status?
Yes, unless otherwise stated
46
Is SR 3.0.2 used to routinely extend the performance intervals?
No, it is not intended to be used to routinely extend the performance interval. It allows for unforeseen problems that may prevent performance of the SR during the normal interval. 25% extended time if needed
47
Which Surveillance Requirement allows for an operational relief if a surveillance is missed?
SR 3.0.3 24 hours or the specified Frequency
48
If the 24 hr delay period is surpassed within SR 3.0.3, what must you do?
A risk evaluation must be performed
49
Define "Met" with respect to Surveillance Requirements
Implies all acceptance criteria are known or understood to be satisfied
50
Define "Performed" with respect to Surveillance Requirements
A Surveillance Requirement must be run to demonstrate that all Acceptance Criteria are “met
51
What are the ESFAS Functional Areas?
1. Safety Injection (SI) 2. Containment Spray 3. Containment Isolation 4. Steam Line Isolation 5. Turbine Trip and Feedwater Isolation 6. Auxiliary Feedwater 7. Containment Air Recirculation/Hydrogen Skimmer (CEQ) System 8. ESFAS Interlocks
52
Why is there a shorter time constraint (5 minutes) while in Modes 3,4, and 5 with the TS Safety Limit Violation 2.2.2.2?
Brittle Fracture is more likely
53
Define Loss of Safety Function
A LOSF exists when, assuming no concurrent single failure, and assuming no concurrent loss of offsite power or loss of onsite EDG(s), a safety function assumed in the accident analysis cannot be performed. A LOSF may exist when a support system is inoperable and a required system redundant to the support or supported systems is also inoperable
54
What does LCO 3.0.5 state?
Allows testing under admin control
55
What does LCO 3.0.6 state?
Do not need to cascade unless there is a loss of safety function
56
What does LCO 3.0.7 state?
Physics Tests
57
What does LCO 3.0.8 state?
AFW - do not declare system inop based solely on the required barriers be inoperable
58
What does LCO 3.0.1 state?
LCO must be met during mode of applicability
59
What does LCO 3.0.2 state?
Failure to meet the LCO, the actions of the condition must be met
60
What are the 5 rules of LCO 3.0.2?
Rule 1 - actions of a tech spec are not required until the discovery of a failure to meet the LCO Rule 2 - plant operation may continue if an LCO is not met as long as the req. of the actions are met Rule 3 - if a condition has been entered but the req of the LCO are met before expiration of the completion time, completion of req action is not required unless otherwise stated Rule 4 - "unless otherwise stated" refers to instances that require completion of required actions even if the affected equip is declared operable Rule 5 - all of the actions requirements are applicable every time a TS condition is entered
61
What are the assumptions of the Final Safety Analysis Review (FSAR)
Assumed that: - 1 Train of ECCS fails - 1 instrument failure WILL NOT cause or prevent an ECCS actuation - 1 Accumulator lost due to a break
62
What is the TS Safety Limit Bases?
Bases on not violating following fuel criteria - 95% probability with 95% confidence level that the hottest fuel rod in the core does not experience DNB - 95% probability with 95% confidence level that the hottest fuel pellet in the core will not experience centerline fuel melting
