Main and Reheat Steam Flashcards
What is all of the Main Steam piping designed for?
- 1085# and 600°F
What the pressure set points for the SG PORVs, and MSSVs? ***
2 Safeties @ 1065 psig
2 Safeties @ 1075 psig
1 Safety @ 1085 psig
1 SG PORV @ 1025 psig
What percent steam flow are each safety rated for? ***
- 5.5% steam flow ea and 110% of design pressure
Why do we have PORVs?
- Prevents lifting safeties
use to cooldown when steam dumps are unavailable
What percent steam flow are each PORV rated for?
- 2.5% steam flow ea
What will cause a MS related SI?
- SG < 500# on 2/4 SGs (1/1) (Manually blocked when P-12 is in) - Steam Line ΔP > 100# 1 SG lower than 2 others - 1 # in Ctmnt (2/3) - Pzr # Low 1775# (2/3)
What causes Steam Line Isolation (SLI)? ***
- 2.8# in Lwr Ctmnt
- SG Pressure Low
(500# 1/1 on 2 SGs) {Manual block below P-12 which auto resets above 541 deg F} - High Steam Flow with Low-Low Tavg (541°F)
(1.42E6 (1.6E6) pph @ 0%, variable with power 1/2 on 2/4 SGs) - Manual
Where are the MS orifices located for each unit and how much do they restrict flow?
- Restricts SG flow to 40% of maximum
- U1 orifice is in Bypass Header.
- U2 orifice in MS line before bypass header (outlet of SGSV)
How will the SGSV dump valves fail on loss of ctrl power?
- Fails close which will not close the SGSV
How will the SGSV dump valves fail on loss of ctrl air?
- Fail open which will close the SGSV
Are the rad monitors downstream of the PORVs operable if the PORVs are isolated? ***
- No, they are INOP
2 monitors, and 4 detectors
What is the purpose of the SGSVs?
- Ensures only 1 SG will blowdown in a steam rupture, even when 1 SGSV fails.
- Minimize positive reactivity from RCS cooldown
- Limit Containment pressure for steam rupture inside Containment.
WIll the SGSVs close on a SLI?
- Yes, in 8 sec
How are the SGSVs interlocked to prevent opening them with a SLI signal?
- Hydraulics are interlocked to prevent opening with a standing SLI signal
How do you clear the SGSV interlock after and SLI signal has cleared to allow closing of the SGSV dump valves?
- Take the ctrl switch to lockout
