In addition, this report includes a number of cycle-specific coefficients used in the generation of certain reactor protective system trip setpoints or allowable increases in radial peaking factors.
- 2. CORE OPERATING LIMITS All values and limits in this TDB section apply to Cycle 24 operation. This cycle must be operated within the bounds of these limits and all others specified in the Technical Specifications.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 5.9.5. The list of references below are complete citations of topical reports and include the report number, title, revision, date, and any supplements in accordance with the basis for NRC approval of License Amendment No. 196 which eliminated these specific entries from Technical Specification 5.9.5. NRC approval of Amendment No. 196 is consistent with the requirements of the Technical Specification Task Force, Improved Standard Technical Specification Change Traveler, "Revise Topical Report References in ITS 5.6.5 COLR" (TSTF-363-A, Rev. 0). In accordance with this Traveler and Amendment No. 196, this information must be maintained within this TDB section.

- 3. TM/LP LIMIT The TM/LP coefficients are shown below:
Table 1 -TM/LP Coefficients Coefficient Value a 29.6 20.63 0
13
-12372 The TM/LP setpoint is calculated by the PVAR equation, shown below and in Figure 1:
PVAR = 29.6 PF(B) AI(Y)B + 20.63TIN - 12372 PF(B) = 1.0 for B Ž 100%
= -0.008(B)+1.8 for 50% < B < 100%
= 1.4 for B < 50%
AI(Y) = -0.6666(Y1 ) + 1.000 for Yj
- 0.00
= +0.3333(Y1 ) + 1.000 for Y1 > 0.00 Where:
B = High Auctioneered thermal (AT) or Nuclear Power, % of rated power Y = Axial Shape Index, asiu TIN = Core Inlet Temperature, OF PVAR = Reactor Coolant System Pressure, psia
- 4. MAXIMUM CORE INLET TEMPERATURE The maximum core inlet temperature (TIN) shall not exceed 5450 F. This value includes instrumentation uncertainty of +/-20 F (Ref: FCS Calculation FC06292, 6/9/95).
This limit is not applicable during either a thermal power ramp in excess of 5% of rated thermal power per minute or a thermal power step greater than 10% of rated thermal power.
- 5. POWER DEPENDENT INSERTION LIMIT The power dependent insertion limit is defined in Figure 2.

- 6. LINEAR HEAT RATE The allowable peak linear heat rate is shown in Figure 3.
- 7. EXCORE MONITORING OF LHR The allowable operation for power versus axial shape index for monitoring of LHR with excore detectors is shown in Figure 4.
- 8. PEAKING FACTOR LIMITS The maximum full power value for the integrated radial peaking factor (FRT) is 1.732.
- 9. DNB MONITORING The core operating limits for monitoring of DNB are provided in Figure 5. This figure provides the allowable power versus axial shape index for the cycle.
- 10. FRT AND CORE POWER LIMITATIONS Core power limitations versus FRT are shown in Figure 6.
- 11. REFUELING BORON CONCENTRATION The refueling boron concentration is required to ensure a shutdown margin of not less than 5% with all CEAs withdrawn. The refueling boron concentration must be at least 1,900 ppm through the end of Cycle 23 operation and is valid until the beginning of core reload for Cycle 24.
Listed below in Table 2 are the refueling boron concentration values for Cycle 24 operations:
Table 2 - Refueling Boron Concentrations Cycle Average Burnup Refueling Boron (MWD/MTU) Concentration (ppm)
BOC 2,141
>2,000 2,014
>4,000 1,900 R33
FORT CALHOUN STATION TDB-VI TECHNICAL DATA BOOK PAGE 10 OF 19
- 12. AXIAL POWER DISTRIBUTION The axial power trip is provided to ensure that excessive axial peaking will not cause fuel damage. The Axial Shape Index is determined from the axially split excore detectors.
The setpoint functions, shown in Figure 7 ensure that neither a DNBR of less than the minimum DNBR safety limit nor a maximum linear heat rate of more than 22 kW/ft (deposited in the fuel) will exist as a consequence of axial power maldistributions.
Allowances have been made for instrumentation inaccuracies and uncertainties associated with the excore symmetric offset - incore axial peaking relationship. Figure 8 combines the LHR LCO tent from Figure 4, the DNB LCO tent from Figure 5, and the APD LSSS tent from Figure 7 into one figure for a visual comparison of the different limits.
- 13. SHUTDOWN MARGIN WITH Tcold > 210-F Whenever the reactor is in hot shutdown, hot standby or power operation conditions, the shutdown margin shall be >3.6% Ak/k. With the shutdown margin <3.6% Ak/k, initiate and continue boration until the required shutdown margin is achieved.
- 14. MOST NEGATIVE MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT The moderator temperature coefficient (MTC) shall be more positive than
-3.30 x 104 ApI 0 F, including uncertainties, at rated power.
