DESCRIPTION: Control Rod Urgent Failure

CAUSE: Bank D, Group 2 power cabinet multiplexing

thyristor failure

SOFTWARE NAME ( 8 ) : Logicals Severitys

YP:XMFTB ( 8 4 )

PLANT STATUS: 100% power

EFFECTS :

The control rod urgent failure inhibits automatic control rod

motion.

Control banks A , B & C can be positioned in manual individual

control. CNTL BK D GP 2 D motion is blocked in manual and auto

due to the failure in bank D.

Malfunction removal will restore the control rod system to

normal.

INSTRUCTOR STATION NO: G E 0 5

DESCRIPTION: Abnormal Generator H, Pressure

Variable: 100% severity equals a leakrate that

will result in a pressure reduction of

approximately 10 psig/minute at a

generator hydrogen pressure of 75 psig.

SOFTWARE NAME (s) : Logicals Severitys

YP:XMFTB(378) YPXSVRTY(98)

CAUSE : Hydrogen leakage through a faulty relief valve

PLANT STATUS: 100%

EFFECTS :

The hydrogen pressure will decrease at a rate designated by

the malfunction severity. The rate of change of pressure will

decrease as the hydrogen pressure decreases.

A reduction in hydrogen pressure will reduce the hydrogen

Heat transfer coefficient; this will result in an increase in the

generator field temperature. The increase in generator field

temperature will in turn increase the hydrogen outlet temperature.

This will cause TIC-7097 to open TV-7097 which will increase

turbine plant cooling water to the hydrogen coolers. As the

hydrogen pressure continues to decrease, the hydrogen will no

longer be capable of removing the Heat generated in the generator

field. If the generator load is not reduced, high generator

field. If the generator load is not reduced, high generator field

temperature will result in internal insulation breakdown. This

will be indicated on the generator core monitor. Continued

operation in this condition will result in grounding the generator

field and generator neutral ground overcurrent lockout trip.

Upon malfunction removal the relief valve will re-seat

stopping the leak and hydrogen pressure reduction. The hydrogen

pressure can be returned to normal by using remote function G E 0 5

which will open the hydrogen supply isolation valve. The

pressurization rate for remote function G E 0 5 will be 0 . 1

psig/minute at 75 psig hydrogen pressure. Remote function G E 0 5

may also be used to increase the hydrogen pressure to 100 psig.

..............................................................

At 100% power, the malfunction can be inserted at 21%

severity and still maintain the plant on line. This is with the

FRV 100% open, three condensate pumps, and the SGFPT's in manual

at maximum speed.

Indicated feed flow to the steam generator increases. A

feedwater line rupture causes a reduction in feed flow to the

8

affected steam generator. This reduced feed flow causes the

affected steam generator level to decrease. The steam generator

level control system responds to maintain level. With maximum

severity inserted, the affected steam generator blowsdown rapidly

and causes a reactor trip/turbine trip.

The reduced feedwater flow causes a decrease in subcooling of

the affected steam generator. This causes an increase in Tavg.

Pressurizer level and pressure correspondingly increase. The

pressurizer pressure and level control systems respond to this

transient.

Once a reactor trip occurs, the affected steam generator and

the other steam generators continue to blowdown through the

rupture. This leads to a low steamline pressure condition and

initiates safety injection steamline and feedwater isolation.

When the SLI & FWI isolations occur, blowdown of the

unaffected steam generators stops. The affected loop boils dry

due to the location of the rupture. Auxiliary feedwater restores

level in the unaffected loops.

Containment pressure and humidity ncrease dependent on break

size. The sump levels increase, initiating sump pump starts.

Malfunction removal will stop the leak

INSTRUCTOR STATION NO: CV04

DESCRIPTION: Loss of Cooling to Letdown Heat Exchanger

SOFTWARE NAME (s): Logicals Severitys

YP:XMFTB ( 2 9 9 )

CAUSE : Temperature Element TE 130 Fails Low Causing Temp

Control Valve TV-130 to Fully Close

PLANT STATUS: 100% power

EFFECTS :

V-130 going closed will cause ACCW flow to the letdown Heat

exchanger to go to minimum. This will cause an increase in

letdown temperature downstream of the letdown Heat exchanger to

approximately that at the outlet of the regenerative heat

exchanger.

When the letdown temperature exceeds the setpoint for the

high temperature exceeds the setpoint for the high temperature

diversion valve, it will shift letdown directly to the volume

control tank and bypass the demineralizers. Volume control tank

temperature will increase and annunciate a high temperature alarm

when its setpoint is exceeded.

The operator can take manual control of TV-130 and control

letdown temperature.

Malfunction removal will return the failed temperature

element to normal.

CAUSE : Transmitter failure

PLANT STATUS: 100% power (assume failed channel selected for

control)

EFFECTS :

This feed flow transmitter failing high or low will generate

a steam flow-feed flow mismatch condition and alarm.

As transmitter output goes high, the associated feedwater

control valve will modulate closed to bring steam and feed flows

together. the reduced feedwater flow will cause actual steam

generator level to decrease. This level decrease will continue

until it either offsets the feed flow error or until a steam

generator low low level generates a reactor trip and auxiliary

feedwater pumps start. The time required for this to occur will

depend on the severity selected.

If this transmitter fails low, just the opposite of the above

stated reactions will occur, except that the turbine trip/reactor

trip and feedwater isolation will occur if the hi-hi steam

generator level is reached.

The operator can take manual feedwater control to stabilize

steam generator level at program level or select the other channel

for control.

Malfunction removal will cause transmitter output to return

to normal.

DESCRIPTION: Load Rejection

Variable: Percent Entered will Equal Percent

SOFTWARE NAME ( 8 ) : Logicals Severitys

YP:XMFTB(382) YPXSVRTY(102)

CAUSE : Electrical failure in EHC system

PLANT STATUS: 100% power, control rods in auto

EFFECTS :

This malfunction will decrease the load set setpoint at 133%

per minute until the percent decrease is equal to the malfunction

severity. The control valves will close at the maximum rate

allowed by the EHC hydraulic system.

The decrease in turbine impulse pressure causes control rods

to insert and will arm the steam dumps. The steam dumps will

modulate open or if the Tavg-Tref error is large enough they will

quick open. The system accepts a load reduction of 50% without

opening the atmospheric relief valve or a reactor trip. Larger

load reduction may result in a reactor trip, dependent upon the

pressurizer pressure and level control system response.

Malfunction removal will stop the decrease in the load set

setpoint.
