Q

What does the flow restrictor do on each MS outlet from the SG?

A
  • Provide plant protection, in case of MSLB, by decreasing steam flow rate to reduce RCS cooling rate.

Q

Control air header pressure is lowering at a fast rate. At 80 psi, the reactor is manually tripped, and header pressure continues to lower. What will happen to the air reg valves in the BD system if pressure continues to lower?

A
  • All air reg valves on BD system will isolate on loss of ctrl air
  • DRV-350/352
  • BD isolation valves
  • BD Flow Ctrl Valves
  • BD Sample Valves
17
Q

What will cause a AFW Flow Conservation?

A
  • Both MFP Trips
  • AMSAC
  • Low-Low SG lvl
  • Load Shed
  • SI
18
Q

What is the cooling water to the BD Hx and flash tank quenching?

A
  • CHW
19
Q

What supplies cooling to the sample Hx?

A
  • CCW
20
Q

What does SGWLC maintain?

A
  • SGWLC maintains SG Narrow Range level at 43.8% for all power levels.
21
Q

What plant protection functions do the SG # transmitters provide?

A
  • SG Steam Line Break Detection
  • SI Initiation
  • Main Steam Line Isolation
  • Low Steam # Alarms
22
Q

What is the dominant control for SG Level? ***

A
  • Level Dominant (43.8%)
  • Steam Generator Level overrides Feed flow/Steam Flow mismatch over time, level is a lag signal*
23
Q

What causes a Steam Line Isolation (SLI)? ***

A
  • Cnt # High-High at 2.8# (2/4)
  • SG # low < 500# (1/1 on 2/4 SG)
  • High Stm flow with P-12 (1.42E6/1.6E6) (1/2) on 2 SG
24
Q

What is the definition of density compensation?

A
  • converts volumetric flow rate of steam to mass flow rate for input into SGWLC circuit. (Left 2 Channels ctrl SG lvl)
25
Q

Where do we measure SG Level?

A
  • SG Downcomer
26
Q

What is swell caused by? ***

A
  • an increase in steam flow (which will cause an increased indication of SG lvl in the downcomer due to decreased SG #) (More intense boiling)
27
Q

What is shrink caused by?

A
  • reduction in steam flow (which will cause an decreased indication of SG lvl in the downcomer due to a rise in SG#) (Less intense boiling)
28
Q

If the steam flow indication fails high to your flow controller, what will happen the FRV?

A
  • The FRV will go open because Feed Flow will want to match Steam Flow
29
Q

If the steam flow indication fails low to your flow controller, what will happen the FRV?

A
  • The FRV will go closed because Feed Flow will want to match Steam Flow
30
Q

If the feed flow indication fails low to your flow controller, what will happen the FRV?

A
  • The FRV will go open because Feed Flow will want to match Steam Flow
31
Q

If the feed flow indication fails high to your flow controller, what will happen the FRV?

A
  • The FRV will go closed because Feed Flow will want to match Steam Flow
32
Q

What will happen if either the SG Lvl Ctrlr or SG Flow Ctrlr is lost?

A
  • The RU will instantly go to manual to maintain the FRV at its current position
33
Q

What will happen if SG RU Ctrlr is lost?

A
  • The SG Flow Ctrlr takes over
34
Q

What will cause a FWI?

A
  • SG High-High level (P-14) (67% NR 2/3 on 1 SG)
  • SI
  • Rx trip (P-4) with low Tavg (Tavg < 554°F on 2/4 loops)
