Title | Loss of Emergency Response Data System and Safety Parameter Display System Due to Computer Problems |
Event Description | At 1210 hours0.014 days <br />0.336 hours <br />0.002 weeks <br />4.60405e-4 months <br /> on 08/17/09, reactor operators noticed [the] Plant Integrated Computer System was beginning to fail. This computer system also performs the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) and Emergency Response Data System (ERDS) functions. Investigation by computer maintenance personnel was initiated. It was determined that [the] Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) and Emergency Response Data System (ERDS) were not reliable. Redundant, normal control room indications are still available to the operators.
At 1955 hours0.0226 days <br />0.543 hours <br />0.00323 weeks <br />7.438775e-4 months <br /> on 08/17/09, the Plant Integrated Computer System was restored to service, including the Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) and Emergency Response Data System (ERDS) functions. A few hours later at 0004 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> on 08/18/09, the Plant Integrated Computer System failed, including loss of Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) and Emergency Response Data System (ERDS). Reactor power was lowered by 0.3% from the initial authorized limit of 94.4% to 94.1% due to the loss of the core thermal power heat balance provided by the computer system. Since the Unit 2 SPDS and ERDS computer systems were not available for greater than an 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> time period, this is considered a Loss of Emergency Assessment Capability and therefore reportable under 10CFR50.72(b)(3)(xiii). The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector.
As of 1336 hours0.0155 days <br />0.371 hours <br />0.00221 weeks <br />5.08348e-4 months <br /> on 08/18/09, Unit 2 ERDS and SPDS were restored to normal operation. Unit 2 reactor power was returned to full power of 94.4% shortly thereafter." The licensee has notified the NRC Resident Inspector. Notified R1DO (Conte). |
