RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION (RAI)
This letter is in response to the December 5, 2003, RAI regarding BFN TS change request 445.
The proposed amendment, which was submitted October 1, 2003, revises the numeric value of SLMCPR in TS 2.1.1.2 for one and two recirculation loop operation to incorporate the results of the Unit 3 Cycle 12 core reload analysis.
The SLMCPR values provided in TS-445 were determined by Framatome Advanced Nuclear Power (FANP) for TVA.
The NRC questions are repeated in the two enclosures along with the TVA responses for each question.
provides an RAI response, which includes information considered proprietary by FANP. Accordingly, FANP has requested that this proprietary response be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.790.
In consideration, an affidavit, as required by 10 CFR 2.790(b)(1), is also included in Enclosure 1. provides a non-proprietary version of RAI response.
Proprietary Information Enclosure 1 Prted on cyd pa
U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 December 19, 2003 TVA has determined this additional information response does not change the determination in the October 1, 2003, TS-445 submittal that there are no significant hazards considerations associated with the proposed change and that the TS change qualifies for a categorical exclusion from environmental review pursuant to the provisions of 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).
Additionally, in accordance with 10 CFR 50.91(b)(1), TVA is sending a copy of this letter and the enclosures to the Alabama State Department of Public Health.
Approval of TS-445 is needed for BFN Unit 3 Cycle 12 operation, which begins in Spring 2004.
Therefore, TVA has previously requested that TS-445 be approved by February 1, 2004, and that the implementation of the revised TS be made within 60 days of NRC approval.
The final Unit 3 Cycle 12 core configuration is currently being modified based on the recent identification of a leaking bundle, which will result in a nominal increase in the batch size of fresh ATRIUM-10 fuel assemblies being used.
The modified core design will maintain the SLMCPR values being requested in TS-445.
There are no regulatory commitments associated with this submittal.
If you have any questions about this TS change, please contact me at (256)729-2636.
I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct.

Unit 3 Cycle 12 Operation Non-proprietary Version of RAI Response
Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 3 TS-445 Request for Additional Information Responses Attachment A Page A-i Attachment A Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 3 TS-445 Request for Additional Information Responses Nonproprietary Version December 15, 2003 RRS03022
Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 3 TS-445 Request for Additional Information Attachment A Responses Page A-1 Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 3 TS-445 Request for Additional Information I Responses NRC Question I Please provide a reference core loading pattern for cycle 12 operation and a detailed description of the final core and fuel design to achieve a 24-month fuel reload cycle at the licensed rated power of 3458 Mwt and operation to normal end of full power (EOFP); (cycle exposure of approximately 16,700 MwdIMTU). Please include post-EOFP and coastdown extensions.
The Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant (BFN) Unit 3 Cycle 12 reference core loading pattern used in the safety limit minimum critical power ratio (SLMCPR) analysis that the Technical Specifications (TS) - 445 submittal is based upon is shown in Figures A. I and A.2, and includes exposed GE1 3 and GE14 fuel assemblies, and a reload batch of new ATRIUM'"-1 0* fuel assemblies. Table A.1 provides an accounting of the fuel types for Cycle 12 operation and Figures A.3, A.4, and A.5 show details on the fresh Framatome ANP (FANP) ATRIUM-10 fuel assemblies. The core design accommodates the cycle length and energy needs and includes approximately 1,100 MWd/MTU post-EOFP and coastdown operations.
NRC Question 2 Provide a flow chart including input parameters to describe the analysis done for the safety limit minimum critical power ratio (SLMCPR) in the mixed core configuration. Also, identify the approved methodologies used in this analysis andjustify their applicability to the SLMCPR analysis for Cycle 12 operation. Please address the technical position and limitations, and conditions in the staff Safety Evaluation Report stated in ANF-524(P)(A) Revision 2 and ANF-524(P)(A) Supplements I and 2, EMF-2209(P)(A) Revision 1, and EMF-2158(P)(A), Revision 0.
An overall SLMCPR analysis flow chart is presented in Figure A.6. The statistical analysis portion of that figure is detailed in Figure A.7. The flow charts are consistent with the presentation and description in Reference A.1.
The NRC-approved topical report methodologies for the process are:
A.
EMF-2209(P)(A) Revision 1 (Reference A.2).
This report supports the applicability of the SPCB critical power correlation for ATRIUM-10 fuel. The NRC Safety Evaluation Report (SER) limitations, conditions, and restrictions applicable for the process are Items 1-3 in the Conclusions section of the SER, which deal with the range of applicability for the critical power correlation. Compliance with the range of applicability is handled within the SLMCPR code SAFLIM2. The remaining NRC SER condition (Item 4) is related to technology transfer to a utility. Since the application of the methodology was performed by FANP for TVA, Item 4 is not applicable.
ATRIUM is a trademark of Framatome ANP.
RR50302
Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 3 TS-445 Request for Additional Information Attachment A Responses Page A-2 B.
EMF-2245(P)(A) Revision 0 (Reference A.3).
This report supports the application of an approved FANP critical power correlation for co-resident fuel. This methodology was used to characterize the GE13 and GE14 fuel types with the SPCB critical power correlation based on the indirect method as detailed in the topical report. The only NRC SER restriction in the topical is related to technology transfer to a utility. Since the application of the methodology was performed by FANP for TVA, this restriction is not pertinent.
C.
EMF-21 58(P)(A) Revision 0 (Reference A.4).
This report supports the application of the CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 methodology as a replacement for CASMO-3/MICROBURN-B. As stated in the NRC SER, the change does not require changes to safety analysis methodology. The treatment of the limitations, conditions, and restrictions in the NRC SER are provided below (paraphrased in some cases for brevity).
- 1.
CASMO-4/AICROBURN-B2 shall be applied within the range of validation criteria (Tables 2.1 and 2.2 of Reference A.4 and measurement uncertainties of Table 2.3 of Reference A.4.
FANP's application of this methodology meets these criteria.
- 2.
The CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 code system shall be validated for analyses of any new fuel design which departs from current orthogonal lattice designs and/or exceeds gadolinia and U-235 enrichments.
The fuel represented for BFN Unit 3 Cycle 12 operation does not violate this condition.
- 3.
The CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 code system shall only be used for BWR licensing analyses and BWR core monitoring applications.
BFN is a boiling water reactor, therefore, the SLMCPR analysis meets this condition.
- 4.
The review of the CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 code system does not imply a generic review of each code.
CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 is used as a code system for input into the SLMCPR analysis.
- 5.
ThL CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 code system is approved as a replacement for CASMO-3 /AICROBURN-B code system used in NRC-approved BWR methodology and core monitoring applications. Such replacements shall be evaluated to ensure affected methodology continues to comply with its SER restrictions and/or conditions.
Since the SLMCPR analysis consists of a core monitoring simulation, it is appropriate that the methods used for core monitoring are used in the SLMCPR analysis. Because CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 is used in the POWERPLEX)-111* core monitoring software POWERPLEX is a trademark of Framatome ANP registered in the United States and various other countries.
RRS032
Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 3 TS-445 Request for Additional Information Attachment A Responses Page A-3 system (CMSS), the methods and corresponding uncertainties of CASMO-4
/MICROBURN-B2 are applicable for the SLMCPR analysis. This is supported by the response to NRC Question 11 in Reference A.1 Supplement 2 page 11, which states that the Reference A.1 methodology can be used with a core monitoring system if sufficient information is available about the uncertainties for the core monitoring code.
In this case, sufficient information is available for the uncertainties of POWERPLEX-I11 CMSS. As shown in Item D below, compliance with the NRC SER restrictions of Reference A. I is maintained.
- 6.
Any customer who proposes to use the CASMO-4IMJCROBURN-B2 code system independent of any fuel contract will be notified of conditions 1-4.
The BFN Unit 3 Cycle 12 analysis is not impacted by this condition since it is based on a fuel contract.
D.
ANF-524(P)(A) Revision 2 and Supplements 1 and 2 (Reference A.1)
This report supports the SLMCPR methodology. The NRC SER limitations, conditions, and restrictions applicable for the process are:
- 1.
The NRC-approved MICROBURN-B power distribution uncertainties should be used in the SLMCPR determination.
This NRC SER restriction was addressed in the letter from J.F. Mallay (FANP) to USNRC, EMF-2158(P) Revision 0, Siemens Power Corporation Methodology for Boiling Water Reactors: Evaluation and Validation of CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2,"
NRC:99:050, December 20,1999. The NRC confirmed that this SER restriction does not apply to CASMO-4/MICROBURN-B2 in letter, Stuart A. Richards (USNRC) to J.F. Mallay (FANP),
Acceptance of Clarifications on Topical Report EMF-2158(P)
Revision 0, Siemens Power Corporation Methodology for Boiling Water Reactors:
Evaluation and Validation of CASMO-4IMICROBURN-B2 (TAC No. MA4592),"
February 29, 2000. As detailed in Item C, the approved uncertainties used are based on MICROBURN-B2.
- 2.
The ANFB additive constant uncertainty should be verified per fuel design.
The SPCB critical power correlation replaces the ANFB critical power correlation in the methodology. SPCB additive constant uncertainties were specifically determined for ATRIUM-10, GEI3, and GE14 fuel assemblies (References A.2 and A.3).
- 3.
The CPR channel bowing penalty for non-ANF fuel should be made using conservative estimates of the sensitivity of local powerpeaking to channel bow.
Channel bow specific for the GE13 and GE14 fuel types was explicitly used in the analyses, which results in conservative estimates of local power peaking to channel bow.
RARMSn
Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant Unit 3 TS-445 Request for Additional Information Attachment A Responses Page A-4
- 4.
The methodology for evaluating the effect of fuel channel bowing is not applicable to reused second-lifetime fuel channels.
No reused second-lifetime fuel channels are being used for the BFN Unit 3 Cycle 12 core.
NRC Question 3 Please demonstrate, based on results of the SLMCPR analysis, that the margin for the proposed increase of the SLMCPR value is adequate. Also, identify the dominant fuel type with respect to cycle exposure during the Cycle 12 operation, and the main contributors for the increase of the proposed SLMCPR value.
Based on the BFN Unit 3 Cycle 12 reference core loading pattern used in the SLMCPR analysis, the 0.1% rods in boiling transition (BT) criterion for a two recirculation loop operation SLMCPR of 1.09 was met. Likewise, the criterion was met for an SLMCPR of 1.11 for single-loop operation. The margin was adequate.
Because of the inherent conservatism of the indirect method of Reference A.2 (the application of an approved CPR correlation to co-resident fuel) in determining additive constant uncertainty, a GE14 assembly will contribute more rods in BT than an ATRIUM-10 assembly if compared on an equal MCPR basis. At the beginning of cycle (BOC), the limiting GE14 and ATRIUM-10 assemblies have approximately the same MCPR margin. At later exposures, the limiting GE14 assembly falls off in power and increases in MCPR margin relative to the limiting ATRIUM-10 assembly. Therefore, the dominate MCPR fuel type with respect to cycle exposure is ATRIUM-10 for the cycle except at BOC.
Please refer to Table A.2 for additional detail on MCPR values versus exposure and the lowest MCPR fuel type.
Because TVA has switched from Global Nuclear Fuel methodology to FANP methodology for the Cycle 12 analysis, it is not informative to compare the previous cycle's results for explanations on the calculated 0.01 SLMCPR value increase. The change in methodology alone can cause a change in SLMCPR value.
NRC Question 4 Please describe the procedures used in the approved methodologies to generate fuel-and plant-related uncertainties listed in Table A. 1 of Attachment A of the October 1, 2003, submittal.
Please provide an equation, as a function of these uncertainties, that can be used as an input to the SLMCPR calculations.
The Fuel Uncertainties in Table A. 1 of Attachment A of the October 1, 2003 submittal for BFN3C1 2 are identified as [
] for a mixed core. The procedure used in the determination of the ATRIUM-10 additive constant uncertainty is described in Section 3.6.2 of Reference A.2. The procedure used in the determination of the GE13 and GE14 additive constant uncertainties applied the indirect method as described in Reference A.3. The procedure for determining the [

The SLMCPR is determined by a Monte Carlo analysis that convolves the uncertainties. Reference A.1 describes the procedure used for generation of the SLMCPR. Specifically, the SLMCPR is determined by a [

NRC Question 5 In relation to the SLMCPR analysis, the submittal did not provide a reference for the conditions listed below. Please identify which approved methodology has the condition listed below.
(a) 50 percent of the local power range monitors (LPRMs) out of service (LPRM bypass model on or off);
(b) up to two traversing incore probe (TIP) machines out of service, or the equivalent number of TIP channels; (c) 2500 effective full power hour (EFPH) LPRM calibration interval; and (d) no reused channels.
Also, please describe the rationale for each of the above conditions.
Items (a)-(c) are core monitoring equipment out-of-service conditions. These equipment out-of-service (OOS) conditions are considered typical for operating domestic BWR plants using the POWERPLEX-I1l CMSS and are conditions that determine the [

Item (d) deals with channel bow used in the SLMCPR analysis. The channel bow methodology presented in Reference A.1 does not allow for second-lifetime channels. No reused second-lifetime fuel channels are being used for the BFN Unit 3 Cycle 12 core.
