Palo Verde Existing Strategy (4 hr Coping)

Existing Analysis

- Assumes 120 GPM RCS Leak Rate

- Uses ADVs for Heat Removal

- Start GTG Within 1 hr

- Load EW/SP/EC/HVAC/Battery Chargers

- Establish Charging for Inventory Control

- Maintain Hot Standby Using ADVs

- Remain @ Hot Standby for the Following 3 Hours

Palo Verde (Cor Credited Future Strategy (16 hr Coping

  • Revised Analysis

- Assume 83 GPM RCS Leak Rate

- Minimize Operator Action During 1St hr

- Start GTG, Within 1 hr

- Load EW/SP/EC/HVAC/Battery Chargers

- Use ADV for Heat Removal

- Use HPSI for RCS Inventory Control

- Uses Pressurizer Vent for Pressure Control

- Cool Down to SDC Condition in 16 hrs
