Q

What is the general purpose of each radiologically controlled areas ventilation system?

A
  • Provides a suitable environment for equipment and personnel.
  • The airflow runs from areas of low radioactivity toward areas of progressively higher activity for ultimate discharge from the Plant via the main exhaust stack.
  • The exhaust air is ducted to HEPA filters:
    • to assure minimum radioactivity levels for the main exhaust stack discharge, and
    • to maintain containment of radioactive particles in those areas of possible contamination
  • The design exhaust flow exceeds the supply exhaust flow in order to create a negative pressure in the areas served and thus minimize the release of radioactive contamination.

Q

What is the flowpath via major components of the Radwaste Area HVAC system?

A

Intake via supply fan V-10

  • Inlet damper PO-3010
  • pre-filter VF-10
  • preheat coil VHX-10
  • reheat coil VHX-13 to the suction of the fan.

Split into 2 major air supply headers

  • One supplies air to offices, lockers, showers, and counting labs via heating coil VHX-38 and cooling coil VHX-52, cooled by chill water.
  • The other header provides air via isolation damper PO-1809 to potentially contaminated areas that contain radwaste treatment equipment. A
    • Also provides air to the ESS Rooms through dampers PO-1817 (east) and PO-1812 (west).

V-14A/B, Radwaste Area HVAC Exhausters

  • Return air is exhausted to the main exhaust plenum after passing through a filter unit and then the exhast fans.
  • CWRT T-64D vent path for containment purge connects at the inlet to the filter unit
  • Radiation monitor RIA-1809 monitors radwaste exhaust filters inlet plenum and provides for system isolation on high radioactivity.

Q

What interlocks are associated with V-10, Radwaste Area Supply Fan?

A

  • Not needed to maintain negative pressure, unless it is only fan running.
  • If airflow drops, standby fan will restart.

Q

What precautions and limitations does SOP-24 have for the Radwaste Area HVAC system?

A
  • At least one V-14A/B fan is required to ensure adequate sampling of rad monitors and to prevent potential radiological contamination of personnel in the Chemistry sampling area using affected fume hoods.
  • V-10, V-14A and B should be on if the equipment hatch is open.
  • Do not remove V-10 and V-67 (Aux Bldg. Addition Radwaste Area supply fan) from service at the same time because Aux Building ventilation imbalances will result.
  • V-10 and V-14A/B are stopped during V-6A/B transfer to minimize backpressure on exhaust plenum when both V-6A/B are off, which could cause reverse flow through filters and a resultant release of radioactivity (e.g., VF-66 or VF-58).

  • One V-14A or B fan is started, then V-10 is started followed by the other V-14 fan. (Notify Chemistry prior to starting V-14A/B fans if both were off per SOP-24, 8.3.2)
  • Steam heating is provided, if needed

Shutdown

  • Notify Chemistry prior to stopping both V-14A & B (per SOP-24, 8.3.1).
