Title | Manual Reactor Trip After Loss of Main Feedwater Pump |
Event Description | Palisades Operations staff manually tripped the reactor in accordance with their station's Off-Normal Operating Procedure, after an automatic trip of the "B" Main Feedwater Pump (MFP). The cause of the MFP auto-trip is unknown and being investigated. During the trip, all systems performed as designed.
During the transient resulting from the trip, the atmospheric steam dump valves did open momentarily and properly reseated. There is no known primary-to-secondary leakage therefore no release was known to have occurred. All control rods inserted fully as a result of the trip. Auxiliary feedwater pump [AFW] 8A started, as expected, in response to low steam generator water levels experienced during the transient and supplied both steam generators. Decay heat is being removed via the main steam isolation valves to the condenser with the 8A AFW pump supplying feedwater to the steam generators. The plant is at normal temperatures and pressures for this mode. The electrical grid is stable with the station start-up transformer supplying station loads. The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
