E*-*n t ergy
-Entergy Transient Analysis Topics Use of CENTS vs. CESEC:
° CENTS generically approved for all CE plants
Entergy Transient Analysis Topics
- Scoping studies: can support 115% of OLP
° 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
- Will meet 10CFR100 limits 10/14/2002 12
SEterg/
"* 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?
