U.S.N. R.C. Site-Specific Written Examination Indian Point Unit 2 Senior Reactor Operator Question 037 How can the operators be assured that the Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor is being maintained within limits on a continuous basis?

A.

B.

C.

D.

The Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor is not measurable, but inferred from a power distribution map using the incore detectors. The map is done every 3 1 days and if within limits it can be inferred that it has been within limits since last performed.

The Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor is part of the core design and Westinghouse patterns the core design to ensure Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor will not be violated.

Maintaining the core within the limits of AFD, QPTR, and control rod insertion limits controls the Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor.

The NIS Channel Deviation will alarm if it goes above the setpoint limits and the operators will need to reduce power 1 % for every percent above limits.
