RPS: Reactor Protection System Flashcards
What is the RRS design basis?
Load Rejection of any magnitude
10% step change
5%/min ramp change
What does NNN-D12 provide for the RRS?
Power to RRS overall
Hot Leg instruments (Loop 1 and Loop 2)
Control Channel 2
What happens to the RRS if NNN-D12 is lost?
RRS loses power No input to CEDMCS = no auto rod control Tave signal to PLCS fails low (33%-lose letdown) Lose power to both Th instruments Lose power to TLI #2 Lose power to Control Channel #2
What does NNN-D11 provide for RRS?
Cold Leg instruments (Loop 1 and Loop 2)
Control Channel 1
What happens to the RRS if NNN-D11 is lost?
Lose power to both Tc instruments
Lose power to TLI #1
Lose power to Control Channel #1
You’ll get an AMI if selected to Average
How can you tell which Tave inputs are being used by the RRS in the Control Room?
Lights on B05 - if both are on the average of the Tave’s is being used
What is used by the RRS to develop Tref?
TLI - B06 1st stage pressure is not the input to RRS
Tref = 564F to 587F
Where can you read the two first stage pressure instruments (MTN-PT-11A/B) that input into the RRS for TLI?
At the RRS Test Cabinet
What is the TLI range for RRS?
0% - 125%
RRS can only use a 100% reading though. This results in a max Tref of 587F
How is the Temperature Error for the RRS generated?
Tave - Tref = Et
What function does the Lag Network serve for the RRS?
Gives higher amplification to a parameter that is rapidly changing. Adds stability to the temperature control loop
What Total Error in the RRS will generate a low insertion demand?
+ 3F
Resets at + 2.84F
What Total Error in the RRS will generate a withdraw demand?
- 3F
Resets at - 2.84F
What Total Error in the RRS will generate a high insertion demand?
+ 4.53F
What Total Error in the RRS will generate a high withdraw demand?
- 4.53F
However, rods will not withdraw in Auto at the high rate.
When reading a voltage at the RRS Test Panel, what must be done before selecting the desired input?
You must push the “Test Probe” button to verify the voltmeter reads zero.
