Reference:

Tech Spec 3.2.1 1.2

Description:

1.2.1 GE Fuel The MAPLHGR Limit is determined using the applicable Lattice-Type MAPLHGR limits from Tables 1.2-1 and 1.2-2. For Single Reactor Recirculation Loop Operation, the MAPLHGR limits in Tables 1.2-1 and 1.2-2 are multiplied by the MAPFAC multipliers provided in Figures 1.2-1 and 1.2-2. .

1.2.2 SPC Fuel The MAPLHGR Limit is the Lattice-Type MAPLHGR Limit. The Lattice-Type MAPLHGR limits are determined from the table given below:

TIT. Fuel Loading Error The Fuel Loading Error, including fuel mislocation and misorientation, is classified as an accident. By demonstrating that the Fuel Loading Error meets the'more stringent Anticipated Operational Occurrence (AO0) requirements, the offsite dose requirement is assured to be met.

Because the events listed below result in a ACPR value that is less than that of the limiting transient, the AOO requirements a'd hence off-site dose requirements are-met for the Fuel Loading Error.

I IV.' Control Rod Drop Accident LaSalle is--abanked p-sito-6-wiihthdw-asequence-plant.-In order-to allow the site the option of inserting control rods using the simplified control rod sequence shown in Table 1, a control rod drop accident analysis was performed for the simplified sequence. The results from this simplified sequence analysis bound those where BPWS guidelines are followed. The results demonstrate that the simplified shutdown sequence meets the Technical Specification limit of 280 callg for a control rod drop accident. Therefore, the simplified sequence is valid for for control rod insertion for shutdown.

An adder of 0.32 %AK is incorporated in this analysis (for other than 00 to 48 control rod drops) to account for possible rod mispositioning errors as well as clumping effects.

V1I.1 Fresh Fuel Vault Criticality Compliance The fuel storage vault criticality analysis that is detailed in Reference 5 remains valid for the above lattices. All the new (ATRIUM-9B) assemblies comply with the fresh fuel vault criticality limiks, i.e., all lattices have an enrichment of less than 5.00 wt % U-235 and a gadolinia content that is greater than 6 rods at 3.0 wt% Gd2O3.

Note that the new fuel vault is a moderation-controlled area which implies that hydrogenous materials will be limited within the new fuel storage array. IAdministrative controls as generally defined in GE SIL No. 152. (dated March 31,1976) must be incorporated for the area.

VII.2 Li Spent Fuel Pool Criticality Compliance The LaSalle Unit I spent fuel pool criticality analysis that is detailed in Reference 6 remains valid for the above lattices. All the new (ATRIUM-9B) assemblies comply with the spent fuel pool criticality limits, i.e., all lattices have an enrichment of less than 4.60 wt % U-235 and a gadolinia content that is greater than 8 rods at 3.0 wt% Gd2O3 .

4.2.4 Core Hydrodynamic Stability Reference 8.7 LaSalle Unit 2 utilizes the BWROG Interim Corrective Actions (ICAs) to address thermal hydraulic instability issues. This is in response to Generic Letter 94-02. When the long term solution OPRM is fully implemented, the ICAs will remain as a backup to the OPRM system.

In order to support the ICAs and remain cognizant of the relative stability of one cycle compared with previous cycles, decay ratios are calculated at various points on the power to flow map and at various points in the cycle. This satisfies the following functions:

Siemens Power Corporation

EMF-2437 LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 Revision 0 Reload Analysis Page 4-3 Provides trending information to qualitativiely compare the stability from cycle to cycle.

Provides decay ratio sensitivities to rod line and flov changes near the ICA're-gions.

  • Allows CornEd to review this information to determine if any administrative conservatisms are appropriate beyond the existing requirements.

The NRC approved STAIF computer code was used in the core hydrodynamic stability analysis performed in support of LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9. The power/flow state points used for this analysis were chosen to assist CornEd in performing the three functions described above. The Cycle 9 licensing basis control rod step-through projection was used to establish expected core depletion conditions. For each power/flow point, decay ratios were calculated at multiple cycle exposures to determnine the highest expected decay ratio throughout the cycle. The results from this analysis are shown below. ,

The MAPLHGR limits presented in Reference 9.9 are valid for LaSalle Unit 2 ATRIUM-9B (LSB

2) fuel for Cycle 9 operation.

Limiting Break: 1.1 fe Break Recirculation Pump Discharge Line High Pressure Core Spray Diesel Generator Single Failure Peak clad temperature and peak local metal water reaction results for the Cycle 9 ATRIUM-9B reload fuel are 1810°F and 0.70% respectively. These results are bounded by the results presented in Reference 9.11, which support the Reference 9.9 MAPLHGR limits. The maximum core-wide metal-water reaction for Cycle 9 remains less than 0.16%. LOC/theatup analysis results for LaSalle ATRIUM-9B are presented below (Reference 9.11):

6.3 Spent Fuel Cask Drop Accident The radiological consequences of a spent fuel cask drop accident have been evaluated for SPC ATRIUM fuel designs in conformance with the analysis described in the LSCS UFSAR Section The peak local metal water reaction result is consistent with the limiting PCT analysis results reported in Reference 9.11.

LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 EMF-2437 Revision 0 Reload Analysis Page 6-2 15.7.5. The analysis is assumed to occur 360 days following shutdown of the reactor, and It Is assumed that all 32 fuel assemblies in the cask completely fail as a result of the accident.

Because the accident is assumed not to occur sooner than 360 days following shutdown of the reactor, the source term for the accident will be very low due to fission product decay.

Hence, the commensurate radiological whole-body and thyroid doses will be very low. The results of this analysis demonstrate that spent fuel cask drop accidents involving SPC ATRIUM fuel win not exceed the established radiological whole-body and thyroid dose limits which are a small fraction of the 10 CFR 100 limits for radiological exposures.

, Plant Transient Analysis Page 1-1 1.0 Introduction This report pre-enhts results of the plant transient analyses performed by Siemens Power Corporation (SPC) as part of the reload~sifetj anaiyses to support LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 (L2C9) operation. The Cycle 9 core contains 348 fresh ATRIUMTM-B* assemblies, 256 previously loaded ATRIUM-9B assemblies and 160 previously loaded GE9 assemblies. Those portions of the reload safety analysis for which Commonwealth Edison Company (CornEd) has responsibility are presented elsewhere. The appropriate operating limits for Cycle 9 operation must be determined in conjunction with results from CoinEd analyses. The-scope of the transient analyses performed by SPC is presented in Reference 1.

The analyses reported in this document were performed using the plant transient analysis methodology approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for generic application to boiling water reactors (Reference 2). The transient analyses were performed in accordance with the NRC technical limitations as stated in the methodology (References 3-7). Parameters for the transient analyses are documented in Reference 8.

The Cycle 9 transient analysis consists of the calculation of the limiting transients identified in Reference 9 to support base case operationt for the power/flow map presented in Figure 1.1.

Results are also presented to support operation in the extended operating domain (EOD) and equipment out-of-service (EOOS) scenarios identified in Table 1.1. The analysis results are used to establish operating limits to protect against fuel failures. Minimum critical power ratio (MCPR) limits are established to protect the fuel from overheating during normal operation and anticipated operational occurrences (AOOs). Power-dependent MCPR (MCPRp) limits are required in order to provide the necessary protection during operation at reduced power. Flow dependent MCPR (MCPR1 ) limits provide protection against fuel failures during flow excursions initiated at reduced flow. Cycle 9 power- and flow-dependent MCPR limits are presented to protect both ATRIUM-9B and GE9 fuel.

Protection against violating the linear heat generation rate (LHGR) limits at rated and off-rated conditions is provided through the application of power- and flow-dependent LHGR factors "ATRIUM is a trademark of Siemens.

Base case operation is defined as two-loop operation within the standard operating domain, including the ICF and MELLLA regions, with allequipment in-service.

These factors or multipliers are applied directly to the stea~dy-state LHGR limit to ensure that the LHGR does not exceed the protection againsL power transient (PAPT)limit-durin9 p-sturated-AOO,. Cydie 9 power- and flow-dependent LHGR multipliers are presented forATRIUM-SB fuel.

Results of analyses that demonstrate compliance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code overpressurization limit are presented.

The results of the plant transient analyses are used in a subsequent reload analysis report (Reference 15) along with core and accident analysis results to justify plant operating limits and set points.

Plant Transient Analysis Page 2-1 2.0 Summary e*..deterdmnaiojl..oQl*thermalllimlts(MCPR limits and LHGRFAC multi*piers) for*LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 is based on analyses of the limiting'operational transients identified in Reference 9. Although the Reference 9 conclusions are based on I 8month cycles, the limiting operational transients identified remain valid for 24-month cycles. The transients evaluated are the generator load rejection with no bypass (LRNB). feedwater controller failure to maximum demand (FWCF) and loss-of-feedwater heating (LFWH). Thermal limits identified for Cycle 9 operation include both MCPR limits and LHGRFAC multipliers. The MCPR operating limits are established so that less than 0.1% of the fuel rods in the core are expected to experience boiling transition during an AOO initiated from rated or off-rated conditions and are based on a two-loop operation MCPR safety limit of 1.11. LHGRFAC multipliers are applied directly to the LHGR limits at reduced power and/or flow conditions to protect against fuel melting and overstraining of the cladding during an AOO. Operating limits are established to support both base case operation and the EOOS scenarios presented in Table 1.1. Operating limits are also established for the EOD and combined EOD/EOOS conditions presented in Table 1.1.

I, Base case MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers are based on results presented in Section 3.0. Results presented in Sections 4.0-6.0 are used to establish the operating limits for operation in the EOD, EOOS, and combined EODIEOOS scenarios.

Cycle 9 MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for ATRIUM-9B fuel and MCPRp limits for GE9 fuel that support base case operation and operation in the EOD, EOOS and combined EODIEOOS scenarios are presented in Tables1,t 2.1-2.4. Tables 2.1 and 2.2 present base case limits and multipliers for Technical Specfitatioins scram speed (TSSS) insertion times and nominal scram speed (NSS) insertion times, respectively. Table 2.3 presents the limits and multipliers for coastdown operation. The combined FFTRlcoastdown limits and multipliers are identified in Table 2.4.

MCPRf limits for both ATRIUM-9B and GE9 that protect against fuel failures during a slow flow excursion event in manual flow control are presented in Figure 2.1. Automatic flow control is not supported for L2C9. The GE9 MCPRf limits include the effect of applying the MCPR penalty described in Reference 10. The MCPRf limits presented are applicable for all EOD and EOOS conditions presented in Table 1.1.

Siemens PowerCorporation

LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 Plant Transient Analysis EMF-2440 Page 2-2 The Cycle 9 LHGRFACj multipliers for the ATRIUM-9B fuel are presented in Figure 2.2 and are applicable in all the EOD and EOOS scenarios presented in Table 1.1. Comparison of the Cycle 9 nodal power histories for the rated power pressurization transients with the approved bounding curves to show compliance with the 1% clad strain and centerline melt criteria for GE9 fuel is discussed in Reference 19.

Ih II Ii The results of the maximum overpressurization analyses show that the requirements of the ASME code regarding overpressure protection are met for Cycle 9. The analysis shows that the dome pressure limit of 1325 psig is not exceeded and the vessel pressure does not exceed the limit of 1375 psig.

'LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle Plant Transient 9 Analysis ... .Page Revision3-10 3.0 Transient Analysis for Thermal Margin - Base Case Operation:

This section describes the analyses performed to determine the power- and flow-dependent MCPR and LHGR operating limits for base case operation at LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9.

COTRANSA2 (Reference 4), XCOBRA-T (Reference 11),,XCOBRA (Reference 7) and I, CASMO-3G/MICROBURN-B (Reference 3) are the major codes used in the thermal limits analyses as described in SPC's THERMEX methodology report (Reference 7) and neutronics methodology report (Reference 3). COTRANSA2 is a system transient simulation code, which includes an axial one-dimensional neutronics model that captures the effects'bf axial power shifts associated with the system transients. XCOBRA-T is a transient thermal-hydraulics code used in the analysis of thermal margins for the limiting fuel assembly.'XCOBRA is used in' steady-state analyses. The ANFB criticalWpo6we correlation (Reference 6) Is used to evaluate the thermal margin of the fuel assemblies. Calculations have been performed to demonstrate the applicability of the ANFB critical power correlation to GE9 fuel at LaSalle using the Reference 12 methodology. Fuel pellet-to-cladding gap conductance values are based on RODEX2 (Reference 13) calculations for the LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 core configuration.

3.1 System Transients System transient calculations have been performed to establish thermal limits to support L2C9 operation. Reference 9 identifies the potential limiting events that need to be evaluated on a cycle-specific basis. The potentially limiting transients for which SPC has analysis responsiblity are the LRNB and FWCF events. Other transient events are either bound by the consequences of one of the limiting transients, or are part of ComEd's analysis responsibility.

Reactor plant parameters for the system translient analyses are shown in Table 3.1 for the 100%

power/I 00% flow conditions. Additional plant parameters used in the analyses are presented in Reference 8. Analyses have been performed to0determine power-dependent MCPR and LHGR limits that protect operation throughout the poweir/flow domain depicted in Figure 1.1. At LaSalle, direct scram and recirculation pump high- to low-speed transfer on turbine stop valve (TSV) and turbine control valve (TCV) position are bypassed at power levels less than 25% of rated. Reference 14 indicates that MCPR and LHGR limits need to be monitored at power levels greater than or equal to 25% of rated.-Asia resubi, all analyses used to establish base case MCPR* limits and LHGRFACp multipliers are performed with both direct scram and RPT operable for power levels at or above 25% of rated.

Siemens Power Corporation

LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 EMF-2440 Plant Transient Analysis Revision 0 Page 3-2 "Thelimiting exposure for rated power pressurization transients is at end of full power (EOFP) when the control rods are fully withdrawn. Off-rated power analyses were performed at earlier cycle exposures to ensure that the operating limits provide the necessary protection.

All pressurization transients assumed only the 11 highest set point safety relief valves (SRVs)

,were operable, consistent with the discussion in Section 7. In order to support operation with I SRV out-of-service, the pressurization transient analyses were performed with the lowest set point SRV out-of-service, which makes a total of 10 SRVs available.

The term, recirculation pump trip (RPT), is used synonymously with recirculation pump high- to low-speed transfer as it applies to pressurization transients. During the high- to low-speed transfer, the recirculation pumps trip off line and coast When they reach the low-speed setting, the pumps reengage at the low speed. The time it takes for the pumps to coast to the low-speed condition is much longer than the duration of the pressurization transients.

Therefore, a recirculation pump trip has the same effect on pressurization transients as a recirculation pump high- to low-speed transfer.

Reductions in feedwater temperature of less than 20°F from the nominal feedwater temperature are considered base case operation, not an EOOS condition. As discussed in Reference 9, the reduced feedwater temperature is limiting for FWCF transients. As a result, the base case FWCF results are based on a 20oF reduction in feedwater temperature.

The results of the system pressurization transients are sensitive to the scram speed used in the calculations. To take advantage of scram speeds faster than the TSSS insertion times presented in Reference 14 scram speed-specifit MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers are provided. The NSS insertion times used in the analyses reported are presented in Reference 8 and reproduced in Table 3.2. The NSS MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers can only be applied if the scram speed surveillance tests meet the NSS insertion times. System transient analyses were performed to establish MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for base case operation for both NSS and TSSS insertion times.

3.1.1 Load Reieýtion NoBypass The load rejection causes a fast closure of the turbine control valve. The resulting compression, wave travels through the steam lines into the vessel and creates a rapid pressurization. The Siemens Power Corporatin

EMF-2440 LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 Revision 0 Plant Transient Analysis Page 3-3 increase in pressure causes a decrease in core void, which in turn causes a rapid increase in power. The fast closure of the turbine control valve also causes a reactor scram and a recirculation pump_ higl- to low-speed transfer which helps mitigate the pressurization effects.

Turbine bypass system operation, which also mitigates the consequencesof the event, is not credited. The excursion of the core power due to the void collapse is terminated primarily by the reactor scram and revoiding of the core. The analysis assumes 3-element feedwater level:

control; however, manual- or single-element feedwater level control will not significantly affect thermal limit or pressure results.

The generator load rejection without turbine bypass system (LRNB) is a more limiting transient than the turbine trip no bypass (TTNB) transient The initial position of the TCV is such that It closes faster than the turbine stop valve. This more than makes up for any differences in the scram signal delayp between the two events. This has been demonstrated in calculations that support the Referenhce 9conclusiontfiat the TTNB event is bound by the LRNB event.

LRNB analyses were performed for several power/flow conditions to support generation of thb thermal limits. Table 3.3 presents the LRNB transient results for both TSSS and NSS insertion times for Cycle 9. For illustration, Figures 3.t-3.3 are presented to show the responses of , ..

various reactor and plant parameters during the LRNB event initiated at 100% of rated power and 105% of rated core flow with TSSS insertion times.

3.1.2 Feedwater Controller Failure- Q '

Theincrease in feedwater flow due to a failure of the feedwater control system to maximum, demand results in an increase in the water level and a decrease in the coolant temperature at the core inlet. The increase in core inlet subcooling causes an increase in core power. As the feedwater flow continues at maximum demand, the water level will continue to rise and eventually reaches the high water, level trip'set point. The initial waterlevel is conservatively assumed to b at the lower level operating range at 30 inches above instrument zero to delay the high level trip and maximize the -coreinlet subcooling that results from the FWCF. The high water level trip causes the turbine stop valvesto close in order to prevent damage to the turbine from excessive liquid inventory in the steam line. The valve closures create a compression wave that travels to the'cbre causing a.o9d c,ollapse and subsequent rapid power excursion. The .

closure of.the turbine valves initiates-a reactor scram and a recirculation pump high- to low speed transfer. In addition, the turbine bypass valves are assumed operable and provide some

FWCF analyses were performed for several power/flow conditions to support generation of the thermal limits. Table 3.4 presents the base case FWCF transient results for both TSSS and

,NSS insertion times for, Cycle 9. For illustration, Figures 3.4-3.6 are presented to show the responses of various reactor and plant parameters during the FWCF event initiated at 100% of rated power and 105% of rated core flow with TSSS insertion times.

3.1.3 Loss-of-Feedwater Heating CornEd has the analysis responsibility for the loss-of-feedwater heating (LFVVH) event at, rated conditions. At reactor power levels less than rated, the LFWH event is less limiting than the LFWH event at rated conditions for the following reasons:

  • At lower power/flow conditions with other core conditions such as control rod patterns and exposure unchanged, the initial MCPR is higher than the MCPR at rated power and flow. This results in additional MCPR margin to the MCPR safety limit.

0 The possible change in feedwater temperature during an LFWVH event decreases as the reactor power decreases.

3.2 MCPR Safety Umit The MCPR safety limit is defined as the minimum value of the critical power ratio at which the fuel can be operated, with the expected number of rods in boiling transition not exceeding 0.1%

of the fuel rods in the core. The MCPR safety limit for all fuel in the LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 core was determined using the methodology described in Reference

5. The effects of channel bow on core limits are determined using a statistical procedure.

The mean channel bow is determined from the exposure of the fuel channels and measured channel bow data.

CASMO-3G is used to determine the effect on the local peaking factor distribution. Once the channel bow effects on the local peaking factors are determined, the impact on the core limits is determined in the MCPR safety limit analysis. Further discussion of how the effects of channel bow are accounted for is presented in Reference 5. The main input parameters and uncertainties used in the safety limit analysis are listed in Table 3.5. The radial power uncertainty includes the effects of up to 2 TIPOOS or the equivalent number of.TIP channels (100% available at'startup), up to 50% of the LPRMs out-of-service, and an LPRM calibration interval of 2500 EFPH as discussed in References 16 and

The determinationof the safety limit explicitly includes the effects: of channel bow and relies on the following assumptions: .

  • Cycle 9 will not contain channels used for more than one fuel bundle lifetime.
  • The channel exposure at discharge will not exceed 48,000 MWd/MTU based on the fuel bundle average exposure.
  • The Cycle 9 core contains all CarTech-supplied channels.

Analyses were performed with input parameters (including the radial power and local peaking factor distributions) consistent with each exposure step in the design basis step-through. The analysis that proddiced the highest'numb5er of rods in boiling transition corresponds to a Cycle 9 exposure of 15,000 MWd/MTU. The radial power distribution corresponding to a Cycle 9 exposure of 15,000 MWd/MTU is shown in Figure 3.7. Eight fuel types were represented in the LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 safety limit analysis: four SPC ATRIUM-9B fuel types loaded in Cycle 9 (SPCA9-3918-I4G8.0-10DM, SPCA9-4*10B-1 9G8.0-10DM, SPCA9-383B-16G8.0-1 DOM, and*

SPCA9-396B-12GZ-1 0DM); two ATRIUM-98 fuel types loaded in Cycle 8 (SPCA9-381B-13GZ7 80M and SPCA9-384B-1 1GZ6-80M); and two GE9 fuel types loaded in Cycle 7 (GE9B "P8CWB322-1 GZ-100M-150 and GE9B-P8CWB320-9GZ-10DM-15O).

The local power peaking factors, including the effects of channel bow, at 70% void and assembly exposures consistent with a Cycle69- exposure of 15,000 MWd/MTU are presentedin Figures 3.8 through 3.11 for the Cyclee9 SPC ATRIUM-9B fuel.-The bowed local peaking factor

.data used in the MCPR safety limit analysis fdrlfuel type SPCA -391B-14G..0-100M is at an assembly average exposure of 18,000 MWdMu. The data for fuel types SPCA941 09 19G.0-1 0DM and SPCA9-383B-16G8.O-1 0DM is at an assembly average exposure of 17,5D0 MWd/MTU. The data is at an assembly average exposure of 15,000 MWd/MTU for fuel type SPCA9-396B-I2GZ-'l0M.  :

The results of the analysis support a tio-loop 'operation MCPR safety limit of 1.11 and a single loop operation MCPR safety limit of 1.12 for all fuel types in the Cycle 9 core. These results are applicable for all EOD and EOOS conditions presented in Table 1.1 and support 'Startupwith uncalibrated LPRMs for an exposure range of BOC to 500 MWd/MTU.

Figures 3.14 and 3.15 present the ATRIUM-gB and GE9 MCPRp limits for base case operation with NSS insertion times. The limits are based on the ,CPR results from t!he limiting system transient analyses discussed above and a MCPR safety limit of 1.11.

Relative to the TSSS MCPRp limits, using the faster NSS insertion times provide lower MCPRp limits.

The pressurization transient analyses provide the necessary information to determine appropriate multipliers on the fuel design LHGR limit for ATRIUM-9B fuel to support off-rated power operation. Application of the LHGRFACp multipliers to the steady-state LHGR limit ensures that the LHGR during AO0s initiated at reduced power does not exceed the PAPT limits. The method used to calculate the LHGRFACp multipliers is presented in Appendix A. The results of the LRNB and FWCF analyses discussed above were used to determine the base case LHGRFACp multipliers. The base case ATRIUM-gB LHGRFACp multipliers for Cycle 9 TSSS and NSS insertion times are presented in Figures 3.16 and 3.17, respectively.

3.4 Flow-DependentMCPR and LHGR Limits Flow-dependent MCPR and LHGR limits are established to support operation at off-rated core flow conditions. The limits are based on the CPR and heat flux changes experienced by the fuel during slow flow excursions. The slow flow excursion event assumes a failure of the recirculation flow control system such that the core flow increases slowly to the maximum flow physically attainable by the equipment. An uncontrolled increase in flow creates the potential for a significant increase in core power and heat flux. A conservatively steep flow run-up path was determined starting at a low-power/low-flow state point of 58.1 %P/30%F increasing to the high power/high-flow state point of 124.2%P/105%F.

MCPRr limits are determined for the manual flow control (MFC) mode of operation for both ATRIUM-9B and GE9 fuel. XCOBRA is used to calculate the change in critical power ratio during a two-loop flow run-up to the maximum flow rate. The MCPP* limit is set so that the increase in core power resulting from the maximum increase in core flow is such that the MCPR safety limit of 1.11 is not violated. Calculations were performed for several initial flow rates to Siemens Power Corporation

EMF-2440 "LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 Revision 0 Plant Transient Analysis Page_3-7 "determinethe corresponding MCPR values that put the limiting assembly on the MCPR safety

limit at the high-flow' condition at the end of the flow excursion.

Results of the MFC flow run-up analysis are presented in Table 3.6 for both the ATRIUM-9B hand GE9 fuel. MCPRt I!mits that provide the required protection during MFC operation are presented in Figure 2.1. The Cycle 9 MCPRf limits were established such that they support base case operation and operation in the EOD, EOOS, and combined EOD/EOOS scenarios. The MCPRf limits.are valid for all exposure conditions during Cycle 9. Since a low- to high-speed pump upshift is required to attain high-flow rates, for initial core flows less than 30% of rated, the limit is conservatively set equal to the 30% flow value. The MCPRf penalty described in Reference 10 has been applied to the GE9 MCPRr limits shown in Figure 2.1. The penalty is a function of core flow with a value of 0.0 at 100% of rated and increases linearly to 0.05 at 40%

of rated. The penalty continues to increase to 30% of rated core flow where a penalty of 0.06 Is applied.

SPC has performed LHGRFAC1 analyses with the CASMO-3G/MICROBURN-B core simulator codes. The analysis assumes that the recirculation flow increases slowly along the limiting rod line to the maximum flow physically attainable by the equipment. A series of flow excursion analyses were performed at several exposures throughout the cycle starting from different initial power/flow conditions. Xenon is assumed to remain constant during the event. The LHGRFACr multipliers were established to ensure that the LHGR during the flow run-up does not violate the PAPT LHGR limit. Since a low- to high-speed pump upshift is required to attain high-flow rates, for initial core flows less than 30% of rated, the LHGRFACI multiplier is conservatively set equal to the 30% flow value. The LHGRFACI values as a function of core flow for the ATRIUM-9B fuel are presented in Figure 2.2. The Cycle 9 LHGRFAC1 multipliers were established to support base case operation and operation in the EOD, EOOS, and combined EODIEOOS scenarios for all Cycle 9 exposure conditions.

3.5 NuclearInstrument Response The impact of loading ATRIUM-9B fuel into the LaSalle core will not affect the nuclear instrument response. The neutron lifetime is an important parameter affecting the time response of the incore detectors. The neutron lifetime is a function of the nuclear and mechanical design of the fuel assembly, the in-channel void fraction, and the fuel exposure. The neutron lifetimes are similar for the SPC and GE LaSalle fuel with typical values of 39(10"6 to 40(1 0") seconds

,Page38 Revision 0 for the ATRIUM-9B lattices and 41(106) to 43(10") seconds for the GE9 lattices as calculated with the CASMO-3G code at core average void and exposure conditions. Therefore, the neutron lifetimes for a full core of ATRIUM-9B fuel, a mixed core of ATRIUM-WB and GE9 fuel, and a full core of GE9 fuel are essentially equivalent.

-Plant Transient Analysis Page 4-1 4.0 Transient Analysis for Thermal Margin - Extended Operating Domain This section describes the development of the MCPR and LHGR limits to support operation in the following extended operating domains:

, , Increased core flow (ICF) to 105% of rated flow.

  • Power coastdown to 40% of rated power.- - I
  • Final feedwater temperature reduction (OFMR) of up to 100*F and with ICF. Since FFTR is typically used in connection with coastdown, analyses were performed to support combined FFTRlcoastdown operation.

Results of the limiting transient analyses are used to determine appropriate MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for ATRIUM-9B and GE9 fuel to support operation in the EOD scenarios.

MCPRp limits are established for both ATRIUM-9B and GE9 fuel while LHGRFAC. multipliers are only established for the ATRIUM-9B fuel.--

As discussed in Reference 9, the MCPR safetylimit analysis for the base case remains valid for operation in the EODs discussed below. Also, the flow-dependent MCPR and LHGR analyses described in Section 3.4 were performed such that the results are applicable for all the EODs.

4.1 IncreasedCore Flow' The base case analyses presented in Section 3.0 were performed to support operation.in the powertflow domain presented in Figure 1.1, which includes operation in the ICF region. The coastdown and combined FFTRlcoastdown analyses are performed in conjunction with ICF to conservatively maximize the exposure at which a given power level can be attained. As a result, the analyses performed support operation in the ICF extended operating domain for all exposures.

4.2 CoastdownAnalysis Coastdown analyses were performed to ensure that appropriate MCPRp limits and LHGRFACý multipliers are applied to support coastdown operation. The analyses were performedfor coastdown operation to 40% of rated power using a conservative coastdown rate equivalent to a 10% decrease in rated power per 1000 MWd/MTU increase in exposure. An additional 1000 MWd/MTU was added to the EOFP exposure prior to the start of coastdown to provide operation support for operation at up to 10% of rated power above the equilibrium xenon coastdown power level. The MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers are based on results of Siemens Power Cor*ration

LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 EMF-2440 Plant Transient Analysis Revision 0 Page 4-2 LRNB and FWCF analyses. The analyses were performed at cycle exposures consistent with the assumed coastdown rate. This corresponds to the highest exposure at which the power can be obtained. The base case'coastdown ,CPRs for both the ATRIUM-9B and GE9 fuel as well as the ATRIUM-SB LHGRFACp results are presented in Table 4.1 for the indicated power/flow conditions. The ATRIUM-9B MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for coastdown operation are presented in Figures 4.1 and 4.2. The GE9 coastdown MCPRF, limits are presented in Figure 4.3.

4.3 Combined Final FeedwaterTemperatureReduction/Coastdown Analyses were performed to support FFTR with thermal coastdown to ensure that appropriate MCPRp limits and LHGRFAC' multipliers are established. The combined FFTRlcoastdown analysis used a I 00 0F feedwater temperature reduction applied at EOFP to extend full thermal power operation. The coastdown exposure extension discussed in Section-4.2 (1000 MWdIMTU to support operation at up to 10% of rated power above the equilibrium xenon power level) was then applied. LRNB and FWCF analyses were performed to establish MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers. The Cycle 9 FFTRlcoastdown ACPR results for both -ATRIUM-SBand GE9 fuel as well as the LHGRFACp results are presented in Table 4.2 for the indicated power flow conditions. The ATRIUM-9B MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for combined FFTR/coastdown operation are presented in Fidures 4.4 and 4.5. The GE9 coastdown MCPRp limits are presented in Figure 4.6.

,' LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 Revision 0 Plant Transient Analysis Page 5-1 5.0 Transient Analysis for Thermal Margin - Equipment Out-of-Service This section describes the development of the MCPR and LHGR operating limits to support operation with the following EOOS scenarios:

, " Feedwater heaters out-of-service (FHOOS) - 100°F feedwater temperature reduction.

"" '1 recirculation pump loop (SLO). *

  • Turbine bypass system out-of-service (TBVOOS).
  • Recirculation pump trip out-of-service (No RPT).
  • Slow closure of I or more turbine control valves. .

Operation with 1 SRV out-of-service, up to 2 TIPOOS (or the equivalent number of TIP channels) and up to 50% of the LPRMs out-of-service is supported by the base case thermal limits presented in Section 3.0. No further discussion for these EOOS scenarios is presented in this section., The EOOS analyses presented in this section also include the same -EOOS scenarios protected by the base case limits.

Results of the limiting transient analyses are used to establish appropriate MCPRI limits and LHGRFAC, multipliers to support operation in the EOOS scenarios. All EOOS analyses were performed with TSSS insertion times.

As discussed in Reference 9, the base casie MCPR safety limit for two-loop operation remains applicable for operation in the EOOS scenarios discussed below with the exception of single loop operation- Also, the flow-dependent MCPR and LHGR analyses described in Section 3.4 were performed such that the results are applicable in all the EDOS scenarios.

5.1 FeedwaterHeaters Out-of-Service (FHOOS)

The FHOOS scenario assumes a 100OF reduction in the feedwater temperature. Operation with FHOOS is similar to operation with FFTR except that the reduction in feedwater temperature due to FHOOS can occur'at any time during the 'ycle".The effect of the reduced feedwater temperature is an increase in the core subcooling Which can change the power shape and core void fraction: While the LRNB event is less severe due to the decrease in steam flow, the FWCF event can-get worse due to the increase in core inlet subcooling. FWCF analyses were performed for Cycle'9 to determine thermal limits to'support operation with FHOOS. The ACPR and LHGRFAC, results used to develop the EOC operating limits with FHOOS are presented in Table 5.1. The EOC MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for ATRIUM-9B fuel for FHOOS

LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 EMF-2440 Plant Transient Analysis Revision 0 Page 5-2 operation are presented in Figures 5.1 and 5.2, and the EOC FHOOS GE9 MCPRp limits are presented in Figure 5.3.

5.2 Single-Loop Operation(SLO) 5.2.1 Base Case Operation The impact of SLO at LaSalle on thermal limits was presented in Reference 9. The only impact is on the MCPR safety limit. As presented in Section 3.2, the single-loop operation safety limit Is 0.01 greater than the two-loop operating limit (1.12 compared to 1.11). The base case ACPRs and LHGRFACp multipliers remain applicable. The net result is an increase to the base case MCPRp limits of 0.01 as a result of the increase in the MCPR safety limit.

5.2.2 Idle Loop Startup The MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for the startup of an idle recirculation pump are based on the results of the abnormal startup of the idle recirculation loop analysis and thi SLO MCPR safety limit analysis. As discussed in Section 3.2, the single-loop operation safety limit Is 1.12 or 0.01 higher than the two-loop operation Iimit. The process used for the abnormal startup of the idle recirculation loop analysis for-L2C9 is'presented in Reference 20. The responses of the system parameters for the L2C9 analysis are consistent with those presented in Reference

20. The Reference 20 results demonstrated that.,the lowest power (35%P/47%F) conditions provide conservative results. Subsequently, the L2C9 analyses were performed at 35%P/47%F.

The limiting exposure Ias'determined to be BOC. The ACPR and LHGRFACY results for the abnormal staitup of the idle recirculation loop are, presented in Table 5.2. Figures 5.4 and 5.5 present the ATRIUM-9B MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for idle loop startup. The GE9 MCPRp limits for idle loop startup are presented in Figure 5.6.

5.3 Turbine Bypass Valves Out-of-Service (TB VOOS)

The effect of operation with TBVOOS is a reduction in the system pressure relief capacity, which makes the pressurization events more severe. While the base case LRNB event is analyzed assuming the turbine bypass system ot-of-service, operation with TBVOOS has an effect on the FWCF evenL The FWCF event was evaluated for LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 to support operation with TBVOOS. The ACPR and LHGRFACP results used to develop the EOC operating limits with TBVOOS are presented in Table 5.3. The EOC MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp Siemens Power Corporation

EMF-2440 LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 Revision 0 "PlantTransient Analysis Page 5-3 multipliers'for ATRIUM-9B fuel for TBVOOS operation are presented in Figures 5.7 and 5.8, and the EOC TBVOOS GE9 MCPRp limits are presented in Figure 5.9.

5.4 RecirculationPump Trip Out-of-Service (No RP)

This section summarizes the development of the thermal limits to support operation with the EOC RPT inoperable. When RPT is inoperable, no credit for tripping the recirculation pump on TSV position or TCV fast closure is assumed. The function of the RPT feature is to reduce the severity of the core power excursion caused by the pressurization transient. The RPT accomplishes this by helping revoid the core, thereby reducing the magnitude of the reactivity insertion resulting from the pressurization transient. Failure of the RPT feature can result in higher operating limits because of the higher positive reactivity in the core at the time of control rod insertion.

Analyses were performed for LRNB and FWCF events assuming no RPT. The ACPR and LHGRFACp results used to develop the EOC operating limits with no RPT are presented in Table 5.4. The EOC MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for ATRiUM-9B fuel for operation with no RPT are presented in Figures 5.10 and 5.1 1, and the EOC no RPT GE9 MCPRP limits are presented in Figure 5.12.

5.5 Slow Closure of the Turbine Control Valve LRNB analyses were performed to evaluate the impact of a TCV slow closure. Analyses were performed closing 3 valves in the normal fast closure mode and 1 valve in 2.0 seconds. Results provided in Reference 23 demonstrate that pirforminrg the analyses with 1 TCV closing In 2.0 seconds protects ,operation with up to 4 TCVs -closingslowly. Sensitivity analyses below 80% power have shown that the pressure relief provided by all 4 TCVs closing slowly can be sufficient to preclude the high-flux scram set point frorm being exceeded. Therefore, credit for high-flux scram is not taken for analyses at 80% power and below. The 80% power TCV slow closure analyses were performed both with and without high-flux scram credited. The ACPR and LHGRFACp results of the analyses performed are presented in Table 5.5.

The MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers are established with a step change at 80% power.

At 80% power, the lower-bound MCPR, limits and upper-bound LHGRFACI, multipliers are based on the analyses which credit high-flux scram; the upper-bound MCPRp limits and lower bound LHGRFACp multipliers are based on analyses which do not credit high-flux scram. While

LaSalle Unit 2 Cycle 9 EMF-2440 Plant Transient Analysis Revision 0 Page 5.4 th'e TCV slow closure analysis is performed without RPT on valve position, it does not necessarily bound the LRNB no RPT or FWCF no RPT events at all power levels because the slow closing TCV provides some pressure relief until it completely closes. Therefore, the MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for the TCV slow closure EOOS scenario are established using the limiting of the no RPT results reported in Section 5.4 and the TCV slow closure results.

The EOC MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers for ATRIUM-9B fuel for operation with TCV slow closure are presented in Figures 5.13 and 5.14 and the EOC TCV slow closure GE9 MCPRp limits are presented in Figure 5.15. The limits presented in Figures 5.13 through 5.15 protect the scenario of all 4 TCVs closing slowly.

5.6 CombIned FHOOSITCV Slow Closure and/or No RPT MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers were established to support operation with FHOOS, TCV slow closure and/or no RPT. The TCV slow closure ACPR and LHGRFACp results with FHOOS become less limiting than the TCV slow closure event with nominal feedwater temperature since the initial steam flow with FHOOS is lower and produces a less severe pressurization event. Subsequently, no TCV slow closure with FHOOS analyses were performed. The TCV slow closure results with nominal feedwater temperature are considered in determining the combined FHOOSrIcv slow closure and/or no RPT MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multipliers. The limits were developed based on the limiting of either the TCV slow closure analysis results discussed in Section 5.5 or the analyses with both FHOOS and no RPT presented in Table 5.6.

The EOC MCPRp limits and LHGRFACp multiplieis for ATRIUM-9B fuel with FHOOSfTCV slow closure and/or no RPT are presented in Figures 5.16 and 5.17, and the EOC GE9 MCPRp limits for the same EOOS scenario are presented in Figure 5.18. The limits presented in Figures 5.16 through 5.18 protect the scenario of all 4 TCVs closing slowly.
