Q

Discuss the AOP-01.09 A1/A2/B1/B2 Reactor Coolant Pumps CAUTION concerning Loss of CCW.

A

CAUTION
 Loss of component cooling water flow to the RCP coolers can result in thermal stress and flashing in the heat exchanger upon re-admittance of cooling water flow.
 If isolation of CCW to the RCP motor is required due to a leak, then CCW flow to RCP pump seal coolers should be maintained to prevent
overheating RCP seals. This will require local manual isolation.

43
Q

Discuss the Immediate Operator Actions of AOP-08.03 STEAM BYPASS CONTROL SYSTEM?

A
  1. IF two out of four RPS channels indicate Reactor Power High Pre-Trip, THEN PERFORM the following:
    A. TRIP Reactor.
    B. GO TO 1-EOP-01, Standard Post Trip Actions.
  2. IF a SBCS valve has failed OPEN, THEN PLACE STEAM BYPASS PERMISSIVE switch in OFF. (RTGB-102)
44
Q

Discuss AOP-08.03 General Information.

A
  1. The SBCS is designed to automatically maintain main steam pressure at 900 psia resulting in RCS temperature of 532F.
  2. During plant start ups with CEDMS energized and in Mode 1, the SBCS is in the pressure modulate mode of operation only.
  3. When placing an SBCS controller in manual to cool down the RCS, the SBCS Permissive Switch must be taken to Manual to ensure a permissive signal is
    maintained when the QO2 permissive is lost at 806 psia.
  4. If any controller is in manual and a loss of condenser vacuum occurs, condenser vacuum trip will require reset on SBCS Inputs display.
  5. On a reactor trip, the quick open signal lowers TAVG to TAVG at time of trip minus 3F or 555F (whichever is higher), then temperature modulate lowers temperature to 541F. Pressure modulate of PCV-8801 lowers TAVG to 532F (900 psia).
  6. SBCS valves operate with overlap.
  7. To have a quick open following a reactor trip, the following conditions need to be present:
     TAVG >555F
     Steam Pressure >806 psia

Q

Describe the strategy of AOP-09.04 FEEDWATER, CONDENSATE, AND HEATER DRAIN PUMP
ABNORMAL OPERATIONS.

A

 If a pump trips causing feed flow to be less than steam flow, then commence a rapid downpower to balance feed and steam flows.
 If MFW pump flow is low due to closed recirc valve, then open recirc valve.
 If MFW pump suction pressure is low, then start standby condensate pump and heater drain pump and ensure FCV-12-1 is closed. If insufficient number of heater drain pumps running, then commence a rapid downpower to keep suction pressure above 355 psig. If MFW pump suction pressure drops to 230 psig, trip the affected MFW pump.
 If MFW pump oil pressure is low, then ensure its aux oil pump is running. If oil pressure drops to 8 psig, then ensure the MFW pump is tripped. Check pump oil reservoir levels and add oil if required. Check oil flows, clarity, TCW cooling to lube oil coolers.
 If MFW pump high bearing temperature greater than 190F, then confirm bearing temperatures locally. Check pump oil reservoir levels and add oil if required. Check oil flows, clarity, TCW cooling to lube oil coolers. If bearing temperature exceeds 200F with obvious pump degradation conditions and reactor power greater than 60%, then trip the reactor and affected MFW pump.
 If one MFW pump must be stopped and time allows, then commence a normal downpower per 1-GOP-123 and stop the affected MFW pump when power level allows.
 If a Heater Drain Pump flow is less than 1500 gpm, then reduce power as required per 1-AOP-22.01, Rapid Downpower, and when plant conditions allow, stop the affected Heater Drain Pump.
