1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) for the Perry Nuclear Power Plant (PNPP) Unit 1 Cycle 17 is prepared in accordance with the requirements of PNPP Technical Specification Administrative Control 5.6.5.

The core operating limits presented herein were determined using NRC-approved methods (Obligation 1 and Obligation 2). The core operating limits for the Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF) fuel in PNPP Unit 1 for Cycle 17 are documented in Obligations 3, 4, 5, 14, 16, and 17 and summarized herein for the following PNPP Unit 1 Technical Specifications:

1. Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHGR) Limits for each fuel/lattice type, including the power and flow dependent MAPFAC multipliers with the single loop MAPLHGR reduction factor. (Technical Specification 3.2.1)
2. Minimum Critical Power Ratio Operating Limit including the power and flow dependent MCPR curves for Two Loop Operation and Single Loop Operation. (Technical Specification 3.2.2)

Additional power dependent MCPR curves for Two Loop Operation and Single Loop Operation are provided for operation with one pressure regulator out of service.

3. Linear Heat Generation Rate (LHGR) Limits for each fuel/lattice type, including the power and flow dependent LHGRFAC curves with the single loop LHGRFAC reduction factor. (Technical Specification 3.2.3)
4. The simulated thermal power time constant. (Technical Specification 3.3.1.1, SR 3.3.1.1.14)
5. Oscillation Power Range Monitor (OPRM) Instrumentation.

(Technical Specification 3.3.1.3)

The oscillation power range monitor setpoint methods have been changed to NEDE-33766P-A, GEH Simplified Stability Solution (GS3). The GS3 methods are a generic approach to establishing the OPRM period - based detection algorithm setpoints. This generic approach assumes feedwater temperature reductions are limited to 120°F anytime during the cycle.

All AVERAGE PLANAR LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATES (APLHGRs) shall not exceed the result obtained from multiplying the applicable MAPLHGR limit, Figure 3.2.1-1a GE14 Fuel Type or Figure 3.2.1-1b GNF2 Fuel Type, by the smaller of either the flow dependent MAPLHGR factor (MAPFACf) or the power dependent MAPLHGR factor (MAPFACp).

MAPLHGR Limits and MAPFACf and MAPFACp are defined in Obligation 3.

For Two Loop Operation, MAPFACf and MAPFACp are set equal to 1.0.

For Single Loop Operation, MAPFACf and MAPFACp are set equal to 0.8.

The Single Loop Operation limits take effect when reset for single loop operation per LCO 3.4.1,"Recirculation Loops Operating". This is consistent with note "(b)" to Table 3.3.1.1-1 of the Technical Specifications.

Use FTI-B0012 Single Loop Operation to implement the revised MAPLHGR Limits.

26 9 of 23 4.0 MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO (T.S. 3.2.2)

The MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO (MCPR) shall be equal to or greater than the higher of the flow dependent MCPR (MCPRf) and the power dependent MCPR (MCPRp) limits.

MCPR Limits along with MCPRf and MCPRp are defined in Obligations 3.

The MCPR Safety Limit for Cycle 17 for Two Loop Operation is 1.10 and the MCPR Safety Limit for Single Loop Operation is 1.13 <TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS 2.1.1.2>. Normally, the change in Safety Limit from Two Loop Operations to Single Loop Operations is accomplished by increasing the Cycle 17 MCPRf and MCPRp limits by 03.

In order to bound the Cycle 17 GNF2 Single Loop Operating - Pump Seizure Event, the delta CPR between Two Loop Operating and Single Loop Operating OL-MCPR was increased from 0.03 to 0.04. For Cycle 17 Single Loop Operating MCRPf and MCPRp Limits were developed by adding 0.04 delta CPR. 3DMONICORE PANACEA Version 11 uses this approach to calculate Single Loop Operation Limits.

The Single Loop Operation limits take effect when reset for single loop operation per LCO 3.4.1,"Recirculation Loops Operating". This is consistent with note "(b)" to Table 3.3.1.1-1 of the Technical Specifications.

Use FTI-B0012 Single Loop Operation to implement the revised MCPR Limits.

For Cycle 17, the Operating Limit MCPR is a function of the fuel type and exposure. Middle of Cycle (MOC) exposure point is defined as End of Rated (EOR) exposure point minus the Cycle Delta Exposure. For Cycle 17, the EOR exposure is defined in the Cycle 17 Cycle Management Report. For Cycle 17, the Cycle Delta Exposure is set to 2832 MWd/ST.

Thus, MOC is equal to EOR - 2832 MWd/ST.

26 10 of 23 The End of Rated (EOR) is defined as the cycle exposure corresponding to all rods out, 100% power /100% flow, and normal feedwater temperature.

As such, the EOR is a projection based on various assumptions such as how the previous cycle operated, current cycle operations, core loading changes during the refueling outage, inoperable control rods, suppressed fuel defects, etc. The projected EOR exposure point may have to be updated during the cycle to ensure the appropriate MCPR limits applied.

The changes in the EOR value are documented in supplements or revisions to the Cycle Management Report.

Two Loop Operating Limit MCPR is defined as:

Two Loop GE14 GNF2 OL-MCPR BOC to < MOC 1.32 1.34

> MOC to EOC 1.35 1.40 Single Loop Operating Limit MCPR is defined as:

Single Loop GE14 GNF2 OL-MCPR BOC to < MOC 1.36 1.38

> MOC to EOC 1.39 1.44 The flow dependent MCPRf is independent of fuel type and exposure. The Single Loop Operating MCPRf value is defined as Two Loop Operating MCPRf + 0.04.

MCPRf is depicted in the following figures:

26 11 of 23 When below 38% RTP, MCPRp is independent of fuel type and exposure.

The Single Loop Operating MCPRp value is defined as Two Loop Operating MCPRp + 0.04.

Additionally, MCPRp is dependent on equipment status. Separate MCPRp figures are provided for the condition where all equipment is in service and for the condition where one pressure regulator is out of service.

MCPRp is depicted in the following figures:

Final feedwater temperature may be reduced to 305.5°F after all control rods are withdrawn at the end of cycle if the OPRMs are OPERABLE.

Planned reduction of rated feedwater temperature from nominal rated feedwater temperature is not permitted during plant operation with the reactor recirculation system in Single Loop Operation.

As such the Safety Limit change will occur automatically. The guidance in FTI-B0012 can be used to verify proper functioning of the 3DMONICORE System. If the 3DMONICORE System is not functioning properly, FTI-B0012 will implement administrative limits until such time as 3DMONICORE is properly calculating MCPR values.

The 3DMONICORE Computer software will automatically shift the Operating Limit MCPR based on the MOC exposure point.

The 3DMONICORE Software will not automatically shift to the Pressure Regulator Out of Service Thermal Limits. The 3DMONICORE databank will be manually changed using a software change request. Until such time as 3DMONICORE databank is updated for the Pressure Regulator Out of Service Thermal Limits, an MFLCPR Administrative Limit will be issued to Operations. Figure 3.2.2-7 can be used as a guide in establishing the MFLCPR Administrative Limit. The graph is the ratio of MCPRp -

  • Tables D-2 (UO2) and D-4 (U,GdO2) of "GE14 Compliance with Amendment 22 of NEDE-24011-P-A, (GESTAR II), NEDC-32868P",

Revision 6, March 2016.

LHGR Limits for the GNF2 Uranium only fuel pins and Gadolinia bearing fuel pins are listed in:

  • Tables B-1 (UO2) and B-2 (U,GdO2) of "GNF2 Advantage Generic Compliance with NEDE-24011-P-A, (GESTAR II), NEDC-33270P",

Revision 7, October 2016.

For both GE14 and GNF2 Gadolinia bearing fuel pins, the maximum Gadolinia content of a fuel pin is 7 wt-% Gd2O3.

For Two Loop Operation, LHGRFACf and LHGRFACp shall not exceed 1.0.

For Single Loop Operation, LHGRFACf and LHGRFACp shall not exceed 0.8.

The Single Loop Operation limits take effect when reset for single loop operation per LCO 3.4.1,"Recirculation Loops Operating". This is consistent with note "(b)" to Table 3.3.1.1-1 of the Technical Specifications.

Use FTI-B0012 Single Loop Operation to implement the revised MAPLHGR Limits.

26 23 of 23 6.0 REACTOR PROTECTION SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION (T.S. 3.3.1.1)

The simulated thermal power time constant shall be 6 +/-0.6 seconds (Obligation 13).

7.0 OSCILLATION POWER RANGE MONITOR (OPRM) INSTRUMENTATION (T.S. 3.3.1.3)

OPRM setpoints for operable OPRMs:

1. Confirmation Count Setpoint (NP = N2): 16
2. Amplitude Setpoint (Sp): 1.15 (Obligation 3) 8.0 SCOPE OF REVISION Rev. 26 - Incorporate Operating Limits for Cycle 17:
1. The cycle number was updated from Cycle 16 to Cycle 17 and the reload number was updated from Reload 15 to Reload 16 as appropriate. The figure names were updated for consistency.

Revision bars are not included (for this change only).

2. Operating Limit MCPRs were updated for Cycle 17 transient analysis.
3. Exposure dependent Operating Limit MCPRs were developed for Cycle 17.
4. MCPRp / Kp curves and the Single Loop MCPRt Curve were updated for the Cycle 17 specific analysis.
5. Due to the proprietary nature of the LHGR Limits, the LHGR limits were removed from the COLR. In place of the LHGR Curves references were added to point to the applicable GEH document.
6. Updated the revision levels of GE Documents identified in References 16 and 17. There were no changes to the LHGR Limits contained within these documents.

Note: For Cycle 17, there are no changes to MAPLHGR Limits, MAPFACt, MAPFACp, Safety Limit MCPR values, Two Loop MCPRf, LHGR Limits, LHGRFACf, LHGRFACp, OPRM Setpoints, or the Simulated Thermal Power Time Constant.
