Q

1 degree change in RCS temp equals ____ inch change in PZR

A

5 inch

21
Q

why is there a 1 gpm bypass around spray valve?

A

flow, temp, pressure

25
Q

What does the high pressure lift oil pump do?

A

supplies oil to kingsbury thrust bearing. makes it easier to start

26
Q

Back stop lube oil pump purpose?

A

supplies oil to anti-rotation device and radial bearing.

27
Q

List RCP Starting interlocks

A
  • <22% power
  • seal injection >3gpm
  • motor ICW cooling >250gpm
  • seal cooling >30 gpm
  • A,C,D - upper oil level >-2.0 in……….B >-1.6in
  • A,C,D - motor lower oil level >-1.5 in……..B >-1.2in
  • A,C,D - lift pressure > 1750 psig……..B > 1000psig
  • no reverse rotation, <12.7 gpm oil flow
  • Tcold > 465F to start 4th pump
28
Q

give numbers for each pressure seal breakdown

A

2155# -> 1st seal -> ~1500# -> 2nd seal -> ~750# -> 3rd seal -> atm

29
Q

short description of seal injection with flows.

A

8-10 gpm seal injection, aux impeller moves some thru ICW cooler, 1.5 gpm goes thru each seal as controlled leakoff. this happens for each rcp

30
Q

if bleedoff flow dropped to 0 what does this indicate?

A

3rd stage seal failed

31
Q

why is seal bleedoff diverted to quench tank on RB isolation?

A

maintain seal staging

32
Q

3 minute blow thru ERV results in quench tank pressure rise of

A

<= 1 psig
