Systems Block 6 Previous System Review Questions Flashcards
What are the power supplies for the CRD pumps?
A- 4160 E
Control power from R25-S004
B - 4160 F
Control power from R25-SOO6
What are the trips for the CRD system?
SOULLL MAN - Suction Pressure Low U2 - 12" Hg U1 - A - 9.3" Hg, B - 10.8" Hg - Overcurrent - Undervoltage - Load Shed - Loss of DC control power (B pump only) - LOCA signal (restart with LOCA reset PB) - Manual
At what levels in the Scram Discharge volume do protective actions take place?
135, 567
1.5 gal (3 gal) - SDV Not drained alarm
36.2 gal (18 gal) - Rod out block (silent)
57 gal (63 gal) - SCRAM
What happens to the CRD system on a Rx scram? What if there is a LOCA signal present as well?
C11-F002 will go closed (5gpm still), since the system see high flow to the accumulators
If the scram was due to a LOCA signal, the CRD pumps will trip, the system will see low flow, and C11-F002 will go full open
What are the major power supplies associated with the RMCS and what do they provide power to?
Vital AC
- 4 rod display
- RPIS
- Full in (Green)
- Full out (Red)
R25-S101(S125)/S102(S116)
- Blue SCRAM lights
- Amber accumulator trouble lights
Instrument Bus A (R25-S064)
- Drift light
- Select light (white)
- Rod move control switches (RONOR and normal)
What happens on a master timer failure during the withdrawal portion of the signal in the RMCS system?
What about during the insert signal?
Failure during the withdrawal portion of the signal, the backup timer will sense the failure and take over. This will prevent the rod from notching out more than once notch. Backup timer does the following at 2 seconds:
- De-selects all rods
- Select block generated
Failure on an insert signal, backup timer does nothing. Rod will continue to drive all the way in.
Which directional control valves allow for rod withdrawal/rod insertion?
Odds in/Evens out
F121 and F123 - Insert
F120 and F122 - Withdrawal
There is a brief insert signal prior to every withdrawal to unlatch the six collet fingers and to allow for withdrawal.
When is the Rod Worth Minimizer required?
T.S. required when <10% Reactor Power based on 280 cal/gm fuel enthalpy following a control rod drop accident
What are the LPSP and LPAP setpoints associated with the RWM?
LPSP - 21% (20.6%)
LPAP - 26% (25.6%)
What does Shutdown “YES” and All Rods In “YES” mean on the RWM?
Shutdown = Yes means all rods are at least the 02 position
All rods in = yes means all rods are at position 00. If not, will provide a list of which rods are not
Which arrangements of APRMs feed into the RWM?
A
B or C
D
A and D both must be above LPSP, along with B or C
Both B and C would have to be below the LPSP to cause the RWM to start enforcing
What is the power supply to APRMs?
Each channel is powered from both RPS A and B. Recorders on P603 are powered from Vital AC
What is the equation for the STP high trip and rod block signals associated with APRMS? What are the clamped values?
STP High trip:
0.57W +53% - 0.57deltaW
clamped at 112.5%
STP High block:
0.63W + 41% - 0.63deltaW
clamped at 110%
What will cause an INOP trip signal to be generated in an APRM?
SOO MU HVL
Switch out of operated
Module Unplugged
High Volts Low
Which APRM voters are associated with each side of RPS? What happens to the voters on a loss of RPS?
RPS A - Voters A and C
RPS B - Voters B and D
Loss of a side of RPS = half scram on that side. Loss of a single voter also causes a half scram signal on that associated side of RPS
What causes the station service 4160 buses to fast transfer after a main turbine trip?
Station service 4160s will fast transfer once BOTH PCBs for the associated generator have opened.
