Given the following conditions:
• A Reactor trip from 80% power has just occurred.
• The Main Turbine tripped as designed.
• Main Feed Pump speed control was in CASCADE at the time of the trip.
• NO operator actions have been taken.
As a result, both Steam Generator Water Level Control (SGWLC) controllers, L1C-0701
and L1C-0703, will:
A. transfer to MANUAL, and the Main Feed Pumps will ramp down to minimum speed.
B. transfer to MANUAL, and the Main Feed Pumps will remain at full speed.
C. remain in AUTO, and the Main Feed Pumps will remain at full speed.
D. remain in AUTO, and the Main Feed Pumps will ramp down to minimum speed.
A. transfer to MANUAL, and the Main Feed Pumps will ramp down to minimum speed.
A plant trip from 100% power has occurred due to an Excess Steam Demand Event
inside containment. Containment pressure is 5 psig. Auxiliary Feedwater is NOT
available and both Main Feedwater Pumps have tripped. EOP 9.0 has been entered.
The CRS has determined that the ‘A’ S/G is the least affected S/G. Due to the
following conditions the CRS has decided to feed ‘A’ S/G using the Condensate Pumps
in accordance with EOP 9.0, Success Path HR-2. The following conditions exist with
respect to the S/Gs:
‘B’ S/G pressure is 300 psia
‘A’ S/G pressure is 495 psia
In order to feed the least affected Steam Generator, the At The Controls Operator
must:

Main Feed Regulating Valve.

Main Feedwater Bypass valve.
C. Bypass the Lo S/G pressure closure of the ‘A’ S/G Main Feed Regulating Valve.
