U.S. Nucle:r Regulat::ry Commission 3F0997-30 Page 2 modifications and procedure changca required to mitigate the consequences of certain small break loss of coolant accidents (SBLOCA). The approval of TSCRN 210 is necessary to resolve identifed unreviewed safety questions (USQs) and to permit implementation of modifications and procedures required for plant restart. In order to maximize the time available for NRC review and to support the Crystal River Unit 3 (CR-3) restart schedule, FPC submitted TSCRN 210 as early as practical. This resulted in additional commitmen's as part of TSCRN 210 to provide supplemental information regarding several ongoing activities such as calculations, modifications and procedure changes. FPC and the NRC have held several meetings and conversations subsequent to the issuance of TSCRN 210 during which the NRC has requested additional information to support its review. FPC has provided additional information in Reference 4 and is providing its response to the NRC's other requests herein.

Supplemental Information The supplemer51information to suppod the NRC's review of TSCRN 210 is provided in the attachments hereto. This supplemental information does not alter FPC's "evious conclusioas or the basis for the conclusions provided in TSCRN 210. A summary of these attachments follows:

Attachment A - List of Commitments The attachment provides the list of commitments made in this submittal.

Attachment B - Calculations Consistent with Commitment 1 of Reference 1, FPC has completed the calculations for the emergency feedwater (EFW) block valve cycling and Control Complex Cooling, and has confirmed that the conclusions of these calculations support TSCRN 210. Additionally, FPC has confirmed that the required maximum accident loads on the EDGs are bounded by the lower limit of the emergency diesel generator (EDG) refueling interval surveillance test (i.e.,3300 kW) proposed by TSCRN 210.

Attachment C - Modifications Consistent with Commitment 5 of Reference 1, FPC confirmed that the modifix tions associated with TSCRN 210, except for impact on the EDG Air Handling System, will not involve an unreviewed safety question, and that no modification changes have been made which would alter tne Technical Specifications or Bases proposed by TSCRN 210. The attached Table 2 is a replacement for the Table 2 contained in TSCRN 210. Since the impact of the EDG uprate modification on the EDG Air Handling System involves an unreviewed safety question, a proposed amendment to l the CR-3 Operating License was submitted by License Amendment Request 216 i

(Reference 2).

U.S. Nucle r R:platory Commission 3F0997-30 Page 3 Attachment D - Emeraency Operatino Procedures Consistent with Commitment 3 of Reference 1, FPC has confirmed that no changes have been made to the operator actions addressing a SBLOCA that would alter the Technical Specifications or Bases proposed by TSCRN 210. The attached Tables 3A and 3B are replacements for those contained in TSCRN 210. FPC has expanded Table 3B of TSCRN 210 to include a complete list of operator actions reqrired for mitigation of a SBLOCA. Both Tables 3A and 3B identify those operator actions that have been previously revieweo by the NRC. However, FPC requests that the NRC review these operator actions as an Integral part of TSCRN 210 in order to achieve a comprehensive review of the SBLOCA mitigation strategy.

Attachment E - Table Summary and Description of Init al Simulator Validations This Table includes the results of seven initial simulator validations of various Emergency Operating Procedure (EOP) scenarios, The results of these simulations indicate that operator response was within the time frame for required actions. This information was requested during meetings at the NRC's offices on September 18, 1997 to discuss FPC letter number 3F0997-31 dated September 17, 1997 (Reference 4).

Attachment F - Draft Anoendix to the Operatino License in a meeting held on June 24,1997, between the representatives of FPC and the NRC staff, the NRC discussed the possibility of incorporating one or more conditions associated with the issuance of TSCRN 210 into a new appendix to the CR-3 Operating License. The NRC requested FPC to propose a draft of such an appendix to facilitate issuance of the license amendment proposed by TSCRN 210, which is provided in this attachment, i Attachment G - EDG Test Plan As discussed in Reference 1, the EDGs are being modified to increase their service ratings. As part of the modifications, FPC will successfully complete testing in accordance with its written EDG test plan and obtain vendor certification to demonstrate that the EDGs are qualified to perform at their new service ratings specified by TSCRN 210 prior to entering Mode 4 from the forced outage initiated on September 2,1996. This attachment provides the test plan for the new ratings based on the installed modifications.

Attachment H - Update of Commitments Made in TSCRN 210 This attachment updates the list contained in Reference 1 and reflects the

- completion of those commitments associated with supplemental information and the

U.S. Nuclear Reguttory Commission 3F0997-30 Page 4 additional comrnitment associated with EDG testing -This attachment replaces the list of commitments contained in TCCRN 210 Attachment I- List of Acronyms and Abbreviations Used This attachment provides a listing of the acronyms and abbreviations used in the submittal.

FPC hereby incorporates the enclosed information into TSCRN 210. The above supplernental information demonstrates that TSCRN 210 is adequate as submitted, including the evaluation of the no significant hazards consideration and, when approved, will permit FPC to operate CR-3 within the approved design and licensing basis.

As the NRC is aware, FPC anticipates CR-3 will be ready to restart in December 1997.

FPC requested in Reference 1 that the NRC approve TSCRN 210 effective November 1, 1997, with an implementation period of up to 30 days. That schedule has not changed. To facilitate the NRC's approval of TSCRN 210, FPC suggests that a meeting be held approximately the first week of October 1997 to address the attached supplemental information.

If you have any questions concerning this supplementalinformation to TSCRN 210, please contact Mr. David Kunsemiller, Manager, Nuclear Licens:ng at (352) 563-4566.

ATTACIIMENT B CALCULATIONS Many of the calculations to support TSCRN 210 were complete by the submittal date of TSCRN 210. Ilowever, to maximize the time available for NRC review and to support the CR-3 restart schedule, certain other calculations were sti ll pending completion at that time.

The anticipated conclusions of these pending calculations were used to support TSCRN 210.

To ensure that the conclusions of the calculations are valid, their inputs and assumptions were veriDed and subjected to interdepartmental reviews, except for the calculations involving Control Complex Cooling, EITV block valve cycling, and EDG loading, in TSCRN 210, FPC committed to:

  • confirm that the calculations for EFW block valve cycling and Control Complex Cooling are complete and their conclusions support TSCRN 210, and
  • confirm to the NRC that the expected maximum steady state accident loads on the EDGs are bounded by the lower limit of the EDG refueling interval surveillance test proposed by TSCRN 210.

Each of these calculations is discussed below.

Control Complex Cooline As described in the Safety Assessment for TSCRN 210, operation of the motor driven EFW pump is limited by EDG capacity limitations for certain SBLOCA scenarios. As such, the motor driven EISV pump (EFP-1) must be secured prior to loading the Control Complex Cooling chiller. In order to mitigate a SBLOCA involving a failure of the 'B' train DC electrical system, FPC would cross-connect the turbine driven EISV pump (EFP-2) to the 'A' train EFW flowpath prior to securing EFP-1. It has been determined that operators can complete this cross-connection in less than one hour. Therefore, FPC initiated calculations to-confirm that the Control Complex Cooling would not be required within the Orst hour of this postulated accident.

FPC has issued the calculations for the Control Complex Cooling issue. These calculations determined the transient temperature profile for the rooms in the Control Complex and compared these profiles to the maximum temperature for each room of the Control Complex.

This calculation concluded that the maximum temperature limits for each of the Control Complex rooms would not be exceeded for at least 60 minutes as long as the Control Complex and EFIC Room ventilation fans are operating within 30 minutes. The assessment of the EDG loads reflect: the operation of the ventilation fans concurrently with the motor driven feedwater pump. The operator action to ensure the ventilation is running is included in the list of operator actions discussed in Attachment D of this letter.

In summary, FPC has completed the calculations associated with the Control Complex Cooling and has confirmed that their results support TSCRN 210.

EFW Block Valve Cycling As described in the Safety Assessment for TSCRN 210, the 'B' powered flow control valves, EFV-55 and EFV-56, would open and be unable to control EFW flow for certain SBLOCA scenarios with a loss of Battery 'B'. The OTSG would fill and the 'A' powered block valves, EFV-Il and EFV-32, would close once the steam generator overfill setpoint is reached. As the OTSG levels decrease to the overfill reset setpoint, the EFW block valves will open allowing EFW flow to the OTSGs. This cycling would be terminated by manual operator action when cross connecting EFW. FPC initiated calculations to determine the frequency of cycling and motor operator capability of the EFW block valves.

FPC has issued calculations addressing this EFW Block Valve Cycling issue. These calculations address the number of cycles the valves would experience, the OTSG overfill and reset setpoints, and the time limits for cycling the valves. The time the EFW block valves can cycle has been conservatively limited to the design temperature of the motor operator, which is a function of the number of cycles, the stroke time, and the ambient temperature postulated in the vicinity of the valves, and reflects revised setpoints for the overfill and reset settings. FPC calculations are based on a motor stroke time which is conservatively greater than the stroke time acceptance criteria for the surveillance testing of the motor operated valve (MOV). The ambient temperature is based on the CR-3 Environmental Qualification Program, which documents the temperature postulated in the intermediate building after one hour assuming a loss of ventilation. The results of the calculations determined that the EFW block valves are capable of cycling for more than one hour. Consistent with the safety assessment for TSCRN 210, this is sufficient time to complete the manual operator actions to cross-connect EFW and terminate block valve cycling.

EDG Loadinn FPC is performing modifications to the EDGs at CR-3 which will increase the 2000 hour0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br /> and 200 hour0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br /> service ratings. FPC proposed in TSCRN 210 a revision to the EDG refueling interval surveillance test to address the increased service ratings. TSCRN 210 proposes an increase in the minimum load for this test from 3100 kW to 3300 kW.

TSCRN 210 describes that accident loads include the automatically connected steady state accident loads and the required manually applied accident loads. However, steady state loads do not include loads imposed by the starting of motors such as during block loading, and short duration loads such as motor operated valves, battery charger surges, and short duration pump surge flows.

As discussed in the cover letter of TSCRN 210, a revision of the CR-3 EDG loading calculatior. is ongoing. Based on the work completed to date, FPC has confirmed that the maximum required accident loads on the EDG will be less than 3300 kW with voltage administratively controlled relative to nominal voltage. Loads imposed by the starting of motors are not included in the service ratings and are less than the EDG manufacturer limits of

ATTACIIMENT C MODIFICATIONS As stated in TSCRN 210, plant modifications supporting TSCRN 210 are in various stages of implementation. As such, the 10 CFR 50.59 evaluations for each of these modincations were not yet completed. Ilowever, to support the ongoing NRC review, FPC identified the modifications to be completed this outage related to SBLOCA mitigation in Attachment F, Table 2 of TSCRN 210.

In the submittal for TSCRN 210. FPC committed to confirm that:

  • the associated modifications do not involve an unreviewed safety question, and e no changes were made in the proposed modifications which would alter the Technical Specifications or Bases proposed by TSCRN 210.

Since TSCRN 210 was submitted, additional modifications were identified associated with the uprate of the Emergency Diesel Generators (EDG). These modifications involve Appendix R fire protection for the cooling fan cables as well as replacement of the radiators and associated air flow issues. The need for the fire protection of the cooling fan cables is necessery since both room cooling fans are required for the operation of the EDG, as discussed in FPC's August 26, 1997 letter (3F0897-25). The potential for the EDG rooms to exceed the design basis temperemres was discussed in LERs 50-302/97-013-00 and 50-302/97-19-00. These modifications have been added to Table 2 of TSCRN 210 and indicated by a revision bar.

FPC has reviewed the modifications identified in Table 2 against TSCRN 210 and has confirmed that these modifications have not been changed in such a manner that would alter the Technical Specifications and Bases proposed by TSCRN 210.

FMEA/ MAR 97-08-12-01 FPC informed the NRC in an October 28, 1996 letter (3F1066-22) of its plan to address eight design issues related to restart. One of these eight issues involves the Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) of a loss of DC power. This FMEA has been completed and has identified a system interaction that could occur during a SBLOCA concurrent with a LOOP and a loss of the 'A' train DC power, which was reported to the NRC in Licensee Event Report 97-021-00. This system interaction l would affect the ability of the operator to bypass the engineered safeguards (ES) signal l and obtain manual control of the ES systems, which is required by the SBLOCA analysis m iSCRN 210. The resolution of the system interaction is a plant modification, Modification Approval Record (MAR) 97-08-12-01, which will restore the operator's ability in appropriate accident scenarios to bypass the ES signal and l obtain manual control of the ES systems. Accordingly, the proposed plant modification

has been added to Table 2 of TSCRN 210. This modification will correct the system interaction and will not alter any conclusions of TSCRN 210.

Except for MARS 97-08-12-01, 95-05-15-01/02/05, and 97-08-04-01, the 10 CFR 50.59 reviews for the modifications identified in Table 2 have been completed. MAR 96-10-05-01

involving the- EDG Air Handling System and the uprate=of the EDGs was determined to involve an unreviewed safety question. Consistent with 10 CFR 50.59, the proposed amendment to the CR-3 Operating License was submitted to the NRC via FPC's August 26,  :

1997 ' letter (3F0897-25). The completed 10 CFR^ 50.59 reviews for the remaining modifications were determined not to involve an unreviewed safety question.

The MAR for which the 10 CFR 50.59 reviews is not complete at this time, has been reviewed by the CR-3 Safety Analysis Group (SAG), who has concluded that this plant modification will

. not involve an unreviewed safety question. The CR-3 SAG is responsible for the review and approval of the plant modification 10 CFR 50.59 reviews.

FPC has modified Table 2 to add the recent Loss of 'A' Battery ES Modification MAR and to *

! reflect the above information for each of the related modifications. The revised Table also reflects the location of the new generator installed for the auxiliary feedwater pump (FWP-7)

'in response to a NRC question during an earlier meeting.

ATTACHMENT D EMERGENCY OPERATING PROCEDURES As stated in TSCRN 210, the affected emergency operating procedures (EOP) necessary to-

' implement TSCRN 210 are in various stages of revision. However, to support the NRC's

' review,- FPC identified in Tables 3A and 3B of TSCRN 210, (1) operator actions required to be completed within the first 20 minutes of the SBLOCA scenarios addressed by the solution sets (Table 3A), and (2) new operator actions required to be completed after 20 minutes of these SBLOCA scenarios (Table 38). Some of these actions are " defense in depth."

In TSCRN 210, FPC committed to confirm that:

  • the necessary procedure changes do not involve an unreviewed safety question, and e no changes were made to the proposed procedures which would alter the Technical Specifications or Bases proposed by TSCRN 210.

Consistent with this commitment, FPC has confirmed that no changes have been made to these operator actions that 'would alter the Technical Specifications or Bases proposed by

.TSCRN 210. To facilitate the NRC staff review, both Tables 3A and 3B have been annotated to identify the EOP steps that pertain to each action. The step numbers are as reflected in the draft revisions of EOPs submitted for review in Reference 4. FPC has expanded Table 3B of TSCRN 210 to include a complete list of operator actions required for mitigation of a SBLOCA.

! . Regarding whether the operator actions involve an unreviewed safety question, both Tables 3A and 3B identify those operator actions that have been previously reviewed by the NRC.

liowever, FPC requests that the NRC review the complete list of operator actions as an

, integral part of TSCRN 210 in order to achieve a comprehensive review of the SBLOCA mitigation strategy, l

Subsequent FPC letter dated 10/31/89 states that mitgation strategy employed from the late 1970's through the reviews done in response to NUREG 0737 releed on balancing HPl flow Requires bypassing ES to gain control of HPI for breaks in HPI injedion lines. These letters relate to LER valve.89-037, issued in November 1989 reportmg a design basis condition in which instrumentation used for balancing HPl flow was inadequate. NRC letter dated 12/20/89 confirmed verbal concu'rence to resume power operaton with the HP1 instrumentation problems. One condition was operator action for HPI flow balancing. NRC letter dated 2/17/95 from Gary Holahan to Ed Jacks (BWOG Operator Support Committee) states staff has completed its review of BWOG response to NUREG 0737 Item I.C.1 regarding EOP Guidelines and is finalizing an SER on the topic. Balancing HPI flows was a part of the ATOG/TBD guidelines incorporated into FPC procedures. FPC issued LER 96-007 on 3/15/96 to report another design basis condrtion involving HPI flow instrutnentation. The flow deiciencies desenbed therein were addressed by revised SBLOCA anafyses provided by Framatome Technologies in April 1996 which required isolation of the affected HPI line versus bafancing. Most recent FTl analyses have provided new isolation enteria.

o Access to the AB is lost due to radiation levels. The PPO was not allowed back in to perfonn post event acilons.

o When EOP 8 is entered, the cold leg break will increase in size to 0.1 of a full break.

Scenado Challenses:

Loss of the A train will require transfer of ES status lights, transfer of ES MCC 3AB and closure of MUWIS and 27 to allow determinationof IIPI flows.

Loss of A Battery will also result in the use of the ES test switches to bypass ES to defeat the ES480v lockout. This will permit the starting of CREVs and the chiller.

When EOP 8 is entered the cold leg break will increase significantly. Rapid depressurizationof the RCS will occur. Building spray actuation may occur.

When LPl flow reaches 1400 GPM, a transition to the larEe break branch of EOP 8 will occur.

The ES test switches will prevent a reactuation requiring manual LPI actuation. The reactuation of ES will require restaning CREVs and Chiller.

Transfer if ECCS suctic n transfer to the sump will occur on the B train only.

The scenario will end when EOP-8 is exited and the TSC will be contacted.

FLORIDA POWER CORPORATION CRYSTAL RIVER UNIT 3 DOCKET NUMBER 50-302/ LICENSE NUMBER DPR-72 ATTACIIMENT G EL)G TEST PLAN

Attachment G EDG Test Plan ,

Florida Power Corporation (Fit) is modifying the Crystal River Unit 3 (CR 3) emergency diesel generators (EDG) to increase their intermediate power ratings to add margin above design basis accident loads. The maximum 30-minute power rating of the EDGs is not changing. FPC has identified a rigorous test plan for the EDGs to confirm functionality, ,

engine qualification, and to confirm that EDG room cooling is adequate.  ;

The EDG test program includes multiple stans and loadings. During these runs, numerous  !

parameters will be monitored to ensure each aspect of the modifications is fully tested. Each EDG will be run for approximately 96 hours0.00111 days <br />0.0267 hours <br />1.587302e-4 weeks <br />3.6528e-5 months <br />, in addition to FIC's testing, the EDG vendor performed load testing on an EDO of the same type for the full duration of the new intermediate ratings,3200 kW for 2000 hours0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br /> and 3400 kW for 200 hours0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br />. The EDG verxior has also performed cn analysis to confinn that FPC's EDGs, as modified, will be capable of operating at the new higher ratings.

The changes required for the FPC EDGs to meet the new ratings are minimal because most of the required modifications were installed in 1990, The post modification testing in 1990 assured proper perfonnance and confirmed qualificaticn of the EDG at its curren ratings. In order to establish the new ratings, only two stationary parts had to be replaced on the EDG engine. The power uprate does not require generator inodifications. In addition to the modifications required for the power uprate, the engine cooling radiators are being replaced due to low cooling air flow rate to the radiator cores discovered during EDG testing and to facilitate future plans.

FPC has taken additional measures to ensure its test plan is adequate to provide reasonable.

assurance that the EDGs will perfonn as designed. Two independent third party consultants i have reviewed the EDG test plan. Both concurred that the EDG test plan was adequate to demonstrate qualification and operability of the EDGs. In addition, FPC discussed the test plan with several IEEE 387 Board Members who concurred with FPC's EIX) test plan-as being adequate to demonstrate qualification and operability.

L)uring a meeting on June 24 1997, the NRC requested FPC to provide the test plan for the EDG modifications. This submittal provides:

1. A summary of FPC's licensing basis including commitments to applicable standards and '

guidelines.

2. A discussion of the modifications made to the CR 3 EDGs.
3. Basis for EDG qualification.

4. A discussion of the post modification testing program including a sum. nary of the EDG starting and loading used in the determination of qualification. The test p!an is based on the testing required to demonstrate that the modifications will perform as designed and to confinn adequate room cooling.
1. Licensingjais l CR-3 was designed, constmeted and licensed before either IEEE 387-1977 Reg. Guide 1.108 (the predecessor to Reg. Guide 1.9), or Reg. Guide 1.9 were issued. The EDGs for the plant were selected, installed and licensed in accordance with the design requirements or NRC Safety Guide 9. " Selection of Diesel Generator Set Capacity for Standby Power Supplies."

Although CR 3 is not required to comply with IEEE 387 or Reg. Guide 1.9, performance of the analyses and . testing described in this test plan demonstrates that FPC is meeting the technical content and intent of both those industry and licensing guidelines.

2.A Discussion of EDG Modificatiem 2.A.1 The new power ratings will be as follows:

Upper Limit Duration Old Ratine New Ratine Chance Continuous 0 to 2,850 kW 0 to 2,850 kW Unchanged 2,000 hours0 days <br />0 hours <br />0 weeks <br />0 months <br /> 2,851 to 3,000 kW 2,851 to 3.200 kW Increased 200 hours0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br /> 3,001 to 3,250 kW 3,201 to 3,400 kW Increased 30 minutes 3,251 to 3,500 kW 3,401 to 3,500 kW Unchanged As documented in the previous section, the EDG intermediate ratings were increased by installing two stationary bolt on replacement parts which have no contact to moving parts on the engine. The new parts can be confirmed to be functioning properly by monitoring turbocharger RPM, blower and intercookr discharge temperatures, and cylinder firing pressure.

In order to provide adequate heat removal for the EDGs at the new ratings, the cooling system had to be modified. The radiator modification significantly improves the engine cooling by increasing the cooling air flow rate and significantly increasing the size of the radiator cores for improved heat transfer. A larger radiator fan is being installed: however, most of the moving parts associated with the radiator remain unchanged.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997-30 Attachment G Page5

2. A.2 Missile Shield and Radiator Modifications Other modifications are being made in addition to the engine modifications discussed above.

The missile shield on the exterior of the EDG building is being modified to reduce its resistance to air flowing through it to the radiator, the engine combustion air, and the engine room cooling system. The missile shield does not connect directly to any EDG component, but it influences proper EDG performance.

The engine radiator is also being replaced with one of the same configuration but larger heat transfer capability. The new radiator provides more cooling air flow because its cores are significantly larger than the o'iginal units and have a lower pressure loss for air flowing through them. A new fan designed for the higher flow and lower pressure loss is also being installed. The new fan uses the same nominal horsepower as the original fan. The new fan is designed for the conditions of higher flow at a lower pressure rise so it uses the same horsepower as the original fan during standard operating conditions. The new radiator is the same configuration as the original radiator so the radiator fan drive is effectively the same as the original fan drive. The new radiator fan drive uses the same basic parts, so there is no significant impact of the new radiator fan drive when compared to the original radiator fan drive. The primary differences are the length of the drive shafts, changing the gear ratio in the right angle gear box to reduce the speed of the fan, and the diameter of the fan is increased. The new fan is different than the previous fan, but it will be tested for proper operation during the 3 day EDG functional test.

The radiator replacement has been fully analyzed by the vendor. Coltec report VTS-985-970714-OlR, dated 7/31/97 documents the analysis. This analysis for the radiator and its interface with the engine is referenced in the following evaluation of the modifications. The radiator analysis plus the EDG power uprate analysis VTS-985-961108-0lR, Revision 2, dated 5/28/97, documents the vendor's confirmation of the EDG's capability to perform up to 2955 kW. The vendor report will be updated after testing of the new radiator to confirm the radiator's capability to adequately cool the engine at the new ratings.

2. A.3 Imnlementing the_llse of Antifree7e During evaluations for replacement of the radiators, the potential of freezing the radiator during the first several minutes of operation was identified, The planned corrective action is to add antifreeze to the radiator water on a year-round basis. The use of antifreeze reduces the heat transfer capability of the fluid. Ilowever, the new radiator and radiator fan are adequate even when accounting for this effect. The air flow through the fan has been increased to provide more heat transfer to account for the reduction in heat transfer due to the antifreeze.

The increase in air flow, in conjunction with the reduced differential pressure, causes the fan horsepower to closely match the fan horsepower required for the old fan. Coltec analysis VTS-985-961108-OlR, Revision 2, dated 5/28/97, documents the vendor's confirmation of the

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997 30 Attachment G Page 6 EDG's capability to use antifreeze in the engine and radiator. Similar engines have been using antifreeze for years with no known adverse conditions.

2. A.4 Implementine a lower Minimum Design Temperature for Outside Air FPC has conservatively reduced the design value for the minimum outside air temperature to 15'F. This affects the design value for the radiater fan horsepower. The fan effectively moves the same CFM even though the density of the air changes. As the air gets colder, it becomes more dense and the required fan horsepower increases. With the minimum design temperature lowered, the theoretical fan horsepower required increases. On the average, the minimum design temperature of 15'F occurs I hour per year per the Crystal River Nuclear Plant " Environmental and Seismic QualiGcation Program Manual" zone OS.

The fan horsepower required for the 15'F condition is 264 horsepower per Coltec report VTS-985-970714-OlR, dated 7/31/97. This is 34 more horsepower than was previously analyzed prior to the uprate and the installation of the new radiator. This equates to an increase of 0.7% above the previously analyzed maximum engine horsepower of 5012. This is considered a negligible change which has been confirmed by the vendor. The vendor notes this condition occurs during the best operating conditions of the engine, when it is cool and drawing very dense combustion air for power operation. As soon as the engine warms up, in approximately 15 to 30 minutes, the low temperature condition is eliminated because the radiator is heating the air, in summary, a 0.7% increase in engine horsepower prior to the uprate is negligible because the engine is capable of meeting this short duration requirement as con 0rmed by the vendor.

2. A.5 Elimination of Recheulajion of Radiator Discharce Air During 1997 surveillance testing of the FPC EDGs, a portion of the radiator discharge air was identified as recirculating back to the radiator room intake structure. This recirculation was measured during the testing as affecting the supply air temperature by as much as 15'F. The condition increases the supply air temperature to the radiaior, combustion air, and the engine room cooling. Appropriate rnodincations will be installed to minimize the recirculation of radiator discharge air and confonn with required design. The planned modifications are to the building. The affect on the supply air temperatures will be reduced to a negligible in0uence as determined by wind tunnel testing of the revised con 0guration. Functional testing will validate the wind tunnel testing and confirm proper EDG performance.
2. A.6 Engine Room Ventilation Modi 0 cations The cooling to the EDG engine room is being increased for two reasons. First, the heat load to the engine room is increasing due to the engine and generator releasing more heat to the room due to the increased intermediate ratings. The increased heat loads are documented in I

l

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997 30 Attachment G Page 7 Collec report VTS 985 970714-OlR, dated 7/31/97. The second reason is testing performed in 1997 identified the heat load in the engine room at the present EDG ratings is higher than was previously documented. ,

The now rate for the cooling air to the room will be increased approximately 50%. The  !

increase will be accomplished by requiring both ventilation supply fans for each engine room to operate. There are two ventilation supply fans for each room. These fans are not driven by  !

the engine of the EIX3. Prior to this modincation, only one of the two fans was required to operate. Both fans have always automatically started when the EDG started. The procedures .

allowed one of the fans to be secured after both fans were conurmed to be operating.

Therefore, the only operating change is to eliminate the steps in the operating procedures allowing one fan to be secured. (Control cables for some of the fans are being rerouted and switches being added to comply with Appendix R protection requirements, but the operation of the fans is not effected). The cooling capability is tied to outside air temperature and the ventilation calculation has confirmed two fans are required only when the outside air temperature is above 85'F. (This value was conservatively determined and the number may change based on testing after all the modincations are installed).

The use of two fans is not considered a signincard reduction in the EDG system reliability, but it is considered an Unreviewed Safety Question (USQ) since it can increase the potential for equipment malfunction. The USQ has been submitted for NRC approval by FPC's letter number 3F0897-25 dated August 25,1997.

The supply fan Hiters are being replaced with ones having a lower pressure drop and grills are being added to the ductwork to reduce back pressure in the system. These changes are being implemented to maintain the present two fan air now when the new radiators are installed.

The radiators will slightly block a portion of the engine room exhaust damper. The ventilation system resistance is being reduced by the modifications discussed above to offset the additional resistance of the partial blockage of the exhaust damper. General system balancing will also be performed.

Engine room and component temperatures will be monitored during testing to confirm adequate cooling. The evaluations will account for the actual outside air temperature during testing.

3. Basis for Emernency Diesel Generator Oualificall0B The EDGs will be qualified after the mod'ncations based on testing performed by the EDG vendor, analysis by the vendor and FPC, similarity of the components being replaced, and site testing of the EDGs after the modincations.

l

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997-30 Attachment G Page 8 3.1 Oualification of the Engine hiodifications and the Power Uprate The engine modifications and power upate have been qualified by the vendor and will be confirmed by site testing. The vendor performed the qualification for Baltimore Gas and Electric (BG&E) by testing a similar EDG at or above 3300 kW for 2000 hours0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br /> and at or above 3500 kW for 200 hours0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br />. The Coltec qualification test reports are included as an enclosure to this test plan. The applicability and capability for the FPC EDGs to be uprated using the BG&E configuration was analyzed by the EDG vendor. Refer to section 3.4 below for a comparison of the FPC's EDG to the BG&E EDG, The FPC EDG power uprate analysis is documented in Coltec's report VTS-985 961108-0lR, Revision 2, dated 5/28/97.

This analysis documents the vendor's confirmation that the FPC EDG and its support systems will perform as required at the new ratings. The report accounts for the test EDG not having a radiator fan for engine cooling by reducing the rated power output of the FPC EDG by 100 kW. The 100 kW accounts for the horsepower used to power the crankshaft driven radiator fan. The report analyzes the FPC EDG support systems, including the radiator, and confirms the FPC EDG and its support systems capability at the new ratings.

Electrical systems and protection systems were evaluated and confinned acceptable for the new intermediate ratings. This was expected since the maximum rating is not increasing. Even though the maximum rating is not increasing, FPC did extensive testing of the exciter in March 1997 and reconfirmed the capability of the component. The generator capability was reconfirmed in Collec's report VTS 985 961108-0lR, Revision 2, dated 5/28/97.

In addition to our internal review of the EDG modifications and test program, FPC requested assistance from numerous industry experts. Specifically we consulted with Coltec (the EDG vendor), the Woodard Corporation, MPR Associates Inc., and two IEEE 387 Board Members.

These personnel reviewed the engine modifications and the power uprate. All agreed that the proposed modifications and test plan for the CR-3 EDGs are acceptable and clearly demonstrate qualification and operability of the EDGs.

In summary, the EDG modifications for the engine modifications and power uprate are qualified by the qualification testing performed by the vendor. The vendor, Coltec, confirmed the similarity of the FPC EDGs to the BG&E EDG tested.

3.2 1992 Modifications by Baltimore Gas and Electric (BG&E)

The following discussion provides additional information for understanding the similarity between the BG&E EDGs and FPC's EDGs.

In 1991, BG&E needed to increase the ratings for their EDGs at Calvert Cliffs. At that time, the BG&E EDGs were units of the same type as the pre-1990 modified FPC units. Ilowever,

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997 30 Attachment G Page 9 they needed higher intermediate ratings than the FPC units had been qualified and modified to in 1990. The EDG vendor suggested implementing the same changes FPC had installed in 1990 plus two other changes. The additional changes were to use dual pass combustion air intercoolers and to change the nozzle ring in the turbochargers to a pitch that allows the turbocharger rotor to operate at a lower RPM. These changes have been implemented at FPC in 1997 and are the subject of discussion above.

3.3 Discussion of HG&E Intermediate Rating Power Testing HG&E required a rigorous and comprehensive qualification of the EDG modifications by the vendor. The vendor performed qualification tests on BG&E's spare EDG after modifying it to the new configuration. This test EDG was outfitted with the same configuration as the FPC EDGs except for the two additional changes. The vendor then performed power qualification testing on the spare EDG for a total of 2200 hours0.0255 days <br />0.611 hours <br />0.00364 weeks <br />8.371e-4 months <br />. The spare EDG was operated for 2000 hours0.0231 days <br />0.556 hours <br />0.00331 weeks <br />7.61e-4 months <br /> at 3300 kW and 200 hours0.00231 days <br />0.0556 hours <br />3.306878e-4 weeks <br />7.61e-5 months <br /> at 3500 kW. The test was for the full duration of the ratings.

The testing is documented in Collec report titled 200 Hour Rating Qualification Test Report and Coltec report titled Results of 2000 llour Test at 385 BilP/Cyl. on 38TD81/8 O. P.

Engine, Report #R-5.08-0236 (9/13/94).

3.4 Comnarison of FPC Emercency Diesel Generator to the HG&E Emergency Diesel Generator Tested The BG&E test EDG was the same configuration as FPC's EDGs except for two minor engine differences. Therefore, the new intermediate ratings for the HG&E EDGs are applicable to FPC's EDGs after the new intercoolers and nozzle rings are installed on the FPC engines.

Documentation supplied in Table I confirms the BG&E EDG is the same configuration as FPC's EDG. This information has been confirmed by the EDG vendor. The FPC's EDG engines were modified in the first quarter of 1997 to install the :ew turbocharger nozzle rings and the new intercoolers. The functional testing of the modifications confirme<1 the performance of FPC's EDGs matches the test resub of Coltec's testing of the BG&E test engine and also the test results of testing by HG&E at their site. Numerous parameters were measured during the testing. The key component parameters monitored are identified in the attached Table 2. The comparison of the test results confirm that FPC's EDGs have the same performance parameters as the qualified BG&E engines.

3.5 EDG Modification impact Analysis FPC performed an analysis of the impact of all the modifications on each of the EDG subsystems. Evaluations were performed on the potential impact that the changes could have on EDG starting and power operation. Also, the testing required to demonstrate that the EDOs L

l I

l

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997 30 Attachment G Page 10 are not adversely affected was identified. This analysis is included as Table 3. Impact of 1997 Uprate Modification to EDG reliability for Starting and Operation.

3.6 Oualification of The Radiator Modifications The new radiators are larger but are of the same general configuration and utilize essentially the same drive components for the radiator fan. The EDG vendor, Coltec, provided the new radiators. The vendor analyzed the new radiators and confirmed the radiators will perform the required function. Since the radiators are of the same general configuration and perform the same function, the new radiators are considered a component replacement. The testing discussed in this submittal and the analysis performed by the vendor ensure qualification of the EDGs. Quatincation was confirmed by the EDG vendor, two independent third party reviews, and discussions with five members of the 1995 IEEE 387 Board. All the modifications to be implemented durine the radiator outage were discussed with all five IEEE 387 Board Members. The Board Members agreed that the radiator modifications would not impact EDG qualification.

3.7 Summary The maximum rating for the FPC EDGs is not increasing. The BG&E Calvert Cliffs spare EDG, matching FPC's units, was power tested by the vendor for 2200 hours0.0255 days <br />0.611 hours <br />0.00364 weeks <br />8.371e-4 months <br /> total at the new intermediate ratings. In addition, the two BG&E EDGs of the same type at Calvert Cliffs have been site tested and put in servi:e with the modifications and new ratings. The changes to the BG&E EDGs have been in operation for more than three years. Therefore, the design has been thoroughly tested. The only changes that were required to make the FPC's EDG configuration match the qualified configuration of the BG&E EDG was the replacement of the turbochargers nozzle rings and replacement of the intercoolers.

4. EDG Post-Modification Test Platl FPC is implementing the test plan discussed below. The testing confirms functionality, qualification and operability of the EDGs. The EDG testing objectives are:
1. Demonstrate the engine operates within specified limits at new power ratings. The key engine parameters are: turbocharger RPM, intercooler discharge temperature, firing pressures. Other EDG parameters to be monitored include jacket water and lube oil temperatures.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997 30 Attachment G Page 11

2. Demonstrate generator will perform as required at .iew power ratings. Main parameters to monitor included generator stator and field temperatures and also the exciter amps at the required generator output kW / kVA. t-
3. Demonstrate new radiator will perfonn its function at new ratings. The prime parameters to be monitored are: cooling air flow rate / radiator fan performance, heat transfer across radiator, heat transfer between engine components and radiator.
4. Demonstrate radiator discharge air recirculation has been eliminated by confinning the air  ;

temperature in radiator room is approximately the s4mc as the outdoor temperature.

5. Demonstrate the engine room and component temperatures within criteria. The room exhaust air temperature and the temperature rise across the room will be monitored, in addition, the temperature of various components and cabinets will be monitored. The tests evill be run a sufficiently long time to achieve temperature stability during data gathering.

The test results of the monitored parameters will be compared to the analysis and allowable operating parameters defined by the verdor to validate proper performance and assure similar results to the qualified BG&E engine.

The following is a general schedule for testing the emergency diesel generator radiator following the radiator modifications:

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997-30 Attachment G Page 14 Summary of EDG Starts and Loads For Power Uurate The following table summarizes the additional starts and lated load runs that are planned as part of the post modification testing planned after all EDG modifications are coinplete, prior to entering Mode 4.

" A" Train N/A 3 63 _

"B" Train N/A 3 63 The order and exact durations of the testing may vary. All the tests will be performed and the basic intent of the durations will be maintained, The kW loading values account for instrument inaccuracy of 25 kW, so the test load is 25 kW less thcn the rating to prevent exceeding the rating. An operating band is provided to account for instabir af the grid and operator control. The power level is maintained in the continuous rating of ~ EDG when not performing a specinc power test to maintain the heat load in the room. The heat load is maintained to monitor IIVAC cooling capability during an extended run.

Prior to restart FPC w;11 perform the combined ES actuation with simulated LOOP test which requires the EDG to automatically load. This test may not be performed at the same time as the other EDG testing because the ES components must be made available to perform the test.

Other plant restraints may prevent some of the ES components from being available concurrently with the EDG test.

After the testing is complete for each EDG, FPC will perfonn evaluations of test results with the vendor and confirm all systems function as required for the new ratings.

U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission 3F0997-30 Attachment G Page 15 Note for Endurance and Margin test - The design of the CR-3 electrical system does not allow loading of the diesel to pre-specified loads in a LOOP con 0guration (i.e., not connected to the offsite grid). Therefore, while voltage and frequency will be monitored, they will be significantly innuenced by the offsite grid. The voltage and frequency monitoring done during the load rejection tests serves to assure these parameters are being properly controlled.

The following table provides a summary of all starts and rated load runs completed or planned from the completion of the intercooler and turbocharger modiDeations until the end of the power uprate testing. The test program involves multiple starts and extended loaded runs as summarized in the table below. These tests will provide the data necessary to ensure qualification.
