Definitions 1.1 1.1 Definitions (continued)

LINEAR HEATGENERATION The LHGR shall be the heat generation rate per unit RATE (lHGR) length of fuel rod. It is the integral of the heat flux over the heat transfer area associated with the unit length.

LOGIC SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL A LOGIC SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL TEST shall be a test of all TEST logic components required for OPERABILITY of a logic circuit, from as close to the sensor as practicable up to, but not including, the actuated device, to verify OPERABILITY. The LOGIC SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL TEST may be performed by means of any series of sequential, overlapping, or total system steps so that the entire logic system is tested.

MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER The MCPR shall be the smallest critical power that RATIO (MCPR) exists in the core for each type of fuel. The CPR is that power in the assembly that is calculated by application of the appropriate correlation(s) to cause some point in the assembly to experience boiling transition, divided by the actual assembly operating power.

MODE A MODE shall correspond to anyone inclusive combination of mode switch position, average reactor coolant temperature, and reactor vessel head closure bolttenslonlng specified in Table 1.1-1 with fuel in the reactor vessel.

OPERABLE - OPERABILITY A system, subsystem, division, component, or device shall be OPERABLE or have OPERABILITY when it is capable of performing its specified safety function(s) and when all necessary attendant instrumentation, controls, normal or emergency electrical power, cooling and seal water, lubrication, and other auxiliary equipment that are required for the system, subsystem. division, component. or device to perform its specified safety function(s) are also capable of performing their related support function(s).

PRESSURE AND The PTLR is the unit specific document that provides the TEMPERATURE LIMITS reactor vessel pressure and temperature limits, including REPORT (pTLR) heatup and cooldown rates, for the current reactor vessel fluence period. These pressure and temperature limits shall be determined for each fluence period in accordance with Specification 5.6.7.
