< 5.0 seconds

< 6.6 seconds ADV N/A 1000 psia

Fuel &Core Design Impact 0 Larger Batch Size

° Reduced Fr Power Peaking Factor

"° Revised Physics Checklists

"* Fuel Performance Confirmation

"* Assessments of Fuel Rod Corrosion and Duty

"* Consistent with Experience Base 10/14/2002 9

E*-*n t ergy

-Entergy Transient Analysis Topics Use of CENTS vs. CESEC:

° CENTS generically approved for all CE plants

  • Per GL 83-11 Supp.1, no W3 specific topical report required 10/14/2002 10

Entergy Transient Analysis Topics

  • Scoping studies: can support 115% of OLP
  • Thermal margin events: COLSS & CPC will preserve margins with minimal setpoint changes

° RCS pressurization events:

LOCV with LOOP is limiting AOO:

< 2750 psia maintained 10/1 4/2002 11


En t ergy Main Steam Line Break Post-trip Return-to-Power MS LB Analysis:

  • Predicted fuel failure expected; more negative MTC a contributor

° Fuel failure previously predicted at other CE plants for RTP MSLB

SEterg/

CEA Ejection CEA Ejection:

"* Probable slight increase over current SAR 9.12% fuel failure

"* Will meet 10CFR100 acceptance criteria

° Will demonstrate <280 cal/gm energy deposition 10/14/2002 13

Entergy ECCS Performance Analysis LBLOCA:

109.5% of OLP e can support beyond

  • 1999 EM:

10/14/2002 14 previously 1985 EM

'-----En tergqry ECCS Performance Analysis LOCA Long Term Cooling:

"° Post-LOCA Boric Acid Precipitation analysis will assume mixing volume of core and part of outlet plenum (currently credit core and lower plenum)

"* conservatisms in treatment of BAMT volume

"° analysis remains consistent with CENPD-254 methodology 10/14/2002 15

-- En tergy ECCS Performance Analysis SBLOCA:

e Credit automatic operation SBLOCA ECCS analysis

  • ADV's Safety Related

° 1000 psia setpoint of ADV's for 0 No credit for Charging Pumps, ifpossible.

10/14/2002 16

En t ergy Containment Analysis Topics

° SAR 6.2 Containment Pressure-Temperature Analyses remain valid at 3716 MWt RTP

° Use of DDIFF code for subcompartment analysis

° Tributary line breaks selected for subcompartment analyses (credits leak before break, CEN-367) 10/14/2002 17

AE *Entergy Radiological Analyses

  • Control room dose analyses:

- non-LOCA events

- increased in-leakage

  • Alternative Source Term: separate submittal

"* New X/Q's to be generated for offsite dose and for Main Control Room dose

"* ICRP30 Dose Conversion Factors

"* Analysis to provide fuel failure percentage corresponding to SRP limits 10/14/2002 18

--En te roy Open Discussion NRC feedback:

"* recommendations/suggestions?

"* submittal templates?

"* Power Uprate Standard Review Plan items?
