17
Q

A
  • NRV-152 controlled by NPS-122 (Loop 1 WR)

- NRV-153 controlled by NPS-121 (Loop 2 WR)

19
Q

If there is a leaking PORV, what can it affect?

A
  • could lead to PRT rupture disk failure
20
Q

What are the Pzr backup Heater trips?

A
  • Loadshed on same train
  • Pzr Low Level at 17%
  • Overcurrent
21
Q

What can happen if Channel III (NPP-153) is controlling channel for Pzr # Ctrl and it fails low?

A
  • all Pzr PORVs will be Inoperable and the only protection for Overpressure on the Pzr will be the safeties
22
Q

The following plant conditions exist:

Unit 1 is at 100% power
Pressurizer level channel NLP-151 is selected for control and fails LOW.

Which ONE of the following describes the plant response to the pressurizer level channel failure? ASSUME no operator action is taken.

a. Charging flow decreases, actual level decreases, orifice isolation valves close, letdown isolates, and VCT level increases.

b. Charging flow remains the same, letdown isolates, and backup heaters turn on if actual level increases 5% above program.

c. Letdown isolates, charging flow increases, seal flow increases, actual level increases, and VCT level decreases.

d. Letdown isolates and heaters energize to restore pressurizer pressure.

A
  • c. Letdown isolates, charging flow increases, seal flow increases, actual level increases, and VCT level decreases.
23
Q

Given the following indications on Unit 2:

  • Reactor Power 97 percent
  • RCS pressure 2260#
  • PRZ level channel select switch in position 1 (Channel 3 control, Channel 2 bistable)
  • PRZ level 53 percent
  • PRZ level recorder select switch in position 1 (Channel 1)
  • PRZ liquid level transmitter NLP-152 (Channel 2) fails low

WHAT is the immediate effect on the plant?

a. Recorder indicates level < level Ref., charging flow control valve QRV-251 opens fully, all backup heaters on.

b. Recorder indicates level = level Ref., charging flow is unchanged, all heaters are off, all orifice isolation valves shut, QRV-111 shut.

c. Recorder indicates level < level Ref., charging flow control valve QRV-251 closes, all heaters are off, all orifice isolation valves shut, QRV-112 shut.

d. Recorder indicates level = level Ref., charging flow control valve QRV-251 opens fully, all backup heaters on, all orifice isolation valves shut, QRV-112 shut.

A
  • b. Recorder indicates level = level Ref., charging flow is unchanged, all heaters are off, all orifice isolation valves shut, QRV-111 shut.

C. PRZ level will LOWER.

D. PRZ level will RISE.

A
  • D. PRZ level will RISE.
26
Q

Unit 2 was operating at 95% power when a load rejection occurred.
Shortly after the load rejection the following plant conditions exist:
RCS Tavg is 572°F
Pressurizer Level is 54%
Pressurizer vapor temperature is 650°F
Pressurizer liquid temperature is 649°F

Which ONE of the following is the current status of the pressurizer based on these conditions?
(Reference the steam tables)

A. Pressurizer PORVs and Spray valves are full OPEN.

B. Pressurizer Spray valves are modulated OPEN.

C. Pressurizer proportional heaters are modulated ON.

D. Pressurizer Backup and proportional heaters are fully ON.

A
  • D. Pressurizer Backup and proportional heaters are fully ON.

ANSWER:
Pressurizer vapor space of 650°F equates to 2193 psig (2208 psia). This is below the 2210 psig setpoint to fully energize the backup heaters.
