Q

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

A
  • Level Dominant (43.8%)

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
17
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)
18
Q

Where do we measure SG Level?

A
  • SG Downcomer
19
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)
20
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)
21
Q

In MODES 1 and 2, the reactor is critical and thus has the potential to produce maximum THERMAL POWER. Thus, to ensure that the assumptions of the accident analyses remain valid, all RCS loops are required to be OPERABLE and in operation in these MODES to prevent ________ and _________.

A
  1. DNB

2. Core Damage

22
Q

What constitutes an OPERABLE RCS Loop?

A
  • An OPERABLE RCS loop consists of an OPERABLE RCP in operation providing forced flow for heat transport and an OPERABLE SG
23
Q

With the plant in MODE 3 and the CRDM’s energized, how many RCS loops are required to be operable?

A
  • When in MODE 3 with CRDM’s energized, 2 RCS loops shall be OPERABLE
24
Q

What is the maximum permissible RCS to SG leakage? (TS 3.4.13)

A
  • 150 gpd primary to secondary LEAKAGE through any one steam generator (SG)

Basis: Limit release to atmo outside ctmnt based on 10CFR100

25
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
26
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
27
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
28
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
29
Q

With the plant in MODE 3 and the CRDM’s are not energized, how many RCS loops are required to be operable?

A
  • When in Mode 3 with CRDMs not energized, 2 RCS loops shall be OPERABLE with one in operation
30
Q

What, with respect to RCS Loops, is required to be operable in Mode 4? (TS 3.4.6)

A
  • Two loops consisting of any combination of RCS loops and residual heat removal (RHR) loops shall be OPERABLE, and one loop shall be in operation.

Basis:
Accidental boron dilution event

31
Q

What does TS 3.4.7 (RCS Loops Mode 5) require?

A
  • One residual heat removal (RHR) loop shall be OPERABLE and in operation,
    AND
  • a. One additional RHR loop shall be OPERABLE;
    OR
    b. The secondary side water level of at least two steam generators (SGs) shall be above the lower tap of the SG wide range level instrumentation by ≥ 420 inches.

Basis:
Accidental boron dilution event

32
Q

Unit 1 was operating at 100% power when a loss of main feedwater occurs to a single SG due to the failure of the controlling feedwater flow instrument.

A valid indication on the affected SG “Flows / Level / Pressure” recorder for this failure would be a rapidly lowering SG level and a?

A
  • high feedwater flow indication on the feedwater flow pen.
33
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)
34
Q

What is the reactor trip associated with SG Lvl Low

A

15% (U1) 26% (U2) 1/2 channels on 1/4 SGs w/ SF/FF Mismatch 0.71M (U1) 1.47M (U2) 1/2 channels on the same SG

35
Q

What happens on a SG Lvl Low-Low

A

5% (U1) 22% (U2) 2/3 channels on 1/4 SGs

  • Rx Trip
  • Auto start of MDAFP (1 SG)
  • Auto start of TDAFP (2 SGs)
36
Q

What are the SG Pressure and Temperature TRM limits

A

Primary and secondary temps in a SG must be greater than 70 deg when the pressure of either primary or secondary is greater than 200# to prevent brittle fracture (restore in 30 mins)
