1.1 Purpose The primary purpose of this document is to satisfy requirements identified by unit technical specification section 5.6.5. This document may be provided, upon final approval, to the NRC.

1.2 Scope This document will discuss the following areas:

> Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHGR) Limit (Technical SpecificatiOns 3.2.1 and 3.7.5)

> Linear Heat Generation Rate (LHGR) Limit (Technical Specification 3.2.3, 3.3.4.1, and 3.7.5)

> Minimum Critical Power Ratio Operating Limit (OLMCPR)

(Technical Specifications 3.2.2, 3.3.4.1, and 3.7.5)

> Average Power Range Monitor (APRM) Flow Biased Rod Block Trip Setting (Technical Requirements Manual Section 5.3.1 and Table 3.3.4-1)

> Rod Block Monitor (RBM) Trip Setpoints and Operability (Technical Specification Table 3.3.2.1-1)

> Shutdown Margin (SDM) Limit (Technical Specification 3.1.1) 1.3 Fuel Loading The core will contain all Global Nuclear Fuels, Inc., GE13/GE14 fuel. Nuclearfuel types used in the core loading are shown in Table 1.1. The core shuffle and final loading were assessed to determine Reference 1 applicability relative to minor loading changes. The vendor has determined Reference 1 remains applicable, per Reference 6.

1.4 Acceptability Limits discussed in this document were generated based on NRC approved methodologies per References 7 and 8.

The APLHGR limit is determined by adjusting the rated power APLHGR limit for off-rated power, off-rated flow, and SLO conditions. The most limiting of these is then used as follows:

APLHGR limit = MIN (APLHGRp, APLHGRF, APLHGRsLo) where:

APLHGRp off-rated power APLHGR limit [APLHGRRATED

  • MAPFACp]

APLHGRF off-rated flow APLHGR limit [APLHGRRATED

  • MAPFACF]

APLHGRsLO SLO APLHGR limit [APLHGRRATED* SLO Multiplier]

2.1 Rated Power and Flow Limit: APLHGRpRATED The rated conditions APLHGR, for the different fuel types, are identified in References 1 & 2, and are shown in Figure 2.1 (GEl3) and Figure 2.2 (GEl4).

2.2 Off-Rated Power Dependent Limit: APLHGRp References 1 & 8, for both GEl 3 and GE14 fuel, does not specify a power dependent APLHGR.

Therefore, MAPFACp is set to a value of 1.0.

2.3 Off-Rated Flow Dependent Limit: APLHGRF Reference 1 & 8, for both GE13 and GE14 fuel, does not specify a flow dependent APLHGR.

Therefore, MAPFACF is set to a value of 1.0.

2.4 Single Loop Operation Limit: APLHGRsLo The single loop operation multiplier for GEl 3 fuel is 0.87; and for GE14 fuel is 0.93, per Reference 1.

(Technical Specification 3.2.3, 3.3.4.1, & 3.7.5)

The LHGR limit is determined by adjusting the rated power LHGR limit for off-rated power and off-rated flow conditions. The most limiting of these is then used as follows:

LHGR limit = MIN ( LHGRp, LHGRF) where:

LHGRp off-rated power LHGR limit [LHGRRATED* LHGRFACp]

LHGRF. off-rated flow-LHGR limit [LHGRRATED* LHGRFACF]

LHGRSLO SLO LHGR limit [LHGRRATED* SLO Multiplier]

3.1 Rated Power and Flow Limit: LHGRRATED The rated conditions LHGR, for both fuel types, are identified in References 3 & 4, and are shown in Figure 3.1 (GE13) and Figure 3.2 (GE14) for U02 fuel. Separate, concentration dependent limits apply for rods containing Gadolinium; for each bundle design LHGR limits are provided in References 3 & 4.

3.2 Off-Rated Power Dependent Limit: LHGRp For GE13/14 fuel, LHGR limits are adjusted for off-rated power conditions using the LHGRFACp multiplier provided in Reference 5 The multiplier is dependent on EOOS conditions.

Consequently, the multipliers are shown in Figure 3.3 thru Figure 3.6, for various EOOS conditions/combinations.

3.3 Off-Rated Flow Dependent Limit: LHGRF For GE 13/14 fuel, LHGR limits are adjusted for off-rated flow conditions using the LHGRFACF multiplier provided in Reference 5. LHGRFACf is fuel type independent. There are no EOOS dependencies for the multiplier. The multiplier is shown in Figure 3.7.

3.4 Single Loop Operation Limit: LHGRSLO The single loop operation multiplier for GEl 3 fuel is 0.87; and for GE14 fuel is 0.93, per Reference 1.

3.5 Equipment Out-Of-Service Corrections The limit shown in Figure 3.1 is applicable for operation with all equipment In-Service as well as the following Equipment Out-Of-Service (EOOS) options; including combinations of the options.

All equipment service conditions support 1 SRVOOS.

The OLMCPR limit is determined by adjusting the rated power MCPR limit for off-rated power and off-rated flow conditions. The most limiting of these is then used as follows:

OLMCPR limit = MAX (-MCPRF, MCPRp) where:

MCPRp off-rated power MCPR limit [MCPRRATED

  • Kp]

MCPRF off-rated flow MCPR limit MCPRSLO SLO MCPR limit [MCPRp + SLO Adder]

4.1 Rated Power and Flow Limit: MCPRRATED The rated conditions MCPR, for both fuel types, are identified in Reference 1. The rated power and flow limits for various cycle exposure windows, and EOOS scenarios, are shown in Figure 4.2 thru Figure 4.5. - -

OLMCPR is calculated to be the most limiting of the flow or power dependent values.

4.1.1 Scram Timing Dependence The MCPRRATED has a scram timing dependence which is assessed after control blade timing shortly after startup, and is discussed as follows:

T 0.0 or, Tave - TB

, whichever is greater TA TB where: 'TA = 1.096 sec (analytical Option A scram time limit based on dropout time for notch position 36)

4.1.2 Equipment Out-Of-Service (EOOS) Options All equipment service conditions support 1 SRVOOS. EOOS options, including combinations, covered by MCPRp limits are given by the following:

In-Service All equipment In-Service RPTOOS - EOC-Recirculation Pump Trip Out-Of-Service TBVOOS Turbine Bypass Valve(s) Out-Of-Service PLUOOS Power Load Unbalance Out-Of-Service FHOOS (or FFWTR) Feedwater Heaters Out-Of-Service (or Final Feedwater Temperature Reduction) 4.1.3 Exposure Dependent Limits Exposures are tracked on a cycle exposure basis. Higher exposure limits are always more limiting, and may be used for any cycle exposure up to the ending exposure. Cycle Exposure Ranges are defined as follows:....,

BOC to MOC: where MOC corresponds to EOR* - 2725 MWd/MTU (2472 MWd/ST).

BOC to EOC EOC exposure includes cycle extension options such as final feedwater reduction (FFTR) and power coastdown.

4.2 Flow Dependent MCPR Limit: MCPRF MCPRF limits are dependent upon core flow (% of Rated), and the max core flow limit, (Rated or Increased Core Flow, ICF). MCPRF limits are shown in Figure 4.1, per Reference 5. Limits are valid for all EOOS combinations. No adjustment is required for SLO conditions.

. EOR is defined as the end of rated power capability for rated core flow and nominal feedwater temperature conditions.

4.4 Power Dependent MCPR Limit: MCPRp MCPRp limits are dependent upon core power level (% of Rated) and EOOS conditions. KP Multipliers and/or MCPRp values are provided in Figure 4.6 thru Figure 4.9. Determination of power dependent MCPR is differentiated relative to Pbypass (30% Rated Power) as follows:

P ; 30% (above Pbypass): MCPRp = [MCPRRATED* Kp]

P < 30% (below Pbypass): MCPRp = MCPRp BFE-2707, Revision 1 (Final)

The APRM rod block trip setting is based upon References 9 & 10, and is defined by the following:

SRB < (0.66(W-AW) + 61%) Allowable Value SRB < (0.66(W-AW) + 59%) Nominal Trip Setpoint (NTSP) where:

SRB = Rod Block setting in percent of rated thermal power (3458 MWt)

W = Loop recirculation flow rate in percent of rated AW Difference between two-loop and single-loop effective recirculation flow at the same core flow (AW=0.0 for two-loop operation)

The APRM rod block trip setting is clamped at a maximum allowable value of 115%

(corresponding to a NTSP of 113%).

Generic CRWE based OLMCPR values were reported and verified per References 9, 10, 11, and 12. However, Reference 12 generic values were developed assuming a SLMCPR < 1.07.

Consequently, cycle specific CRWE analyses were performed to support the current SLMCPR; values are reported in Reference 1. Cycle specific analysis results indicate the SLMCPR remains protected for RBM inoperable conditions (i.e., unblocked). RBM setpoints in Technical Specification Table 3.3.2.1-1 are applicable as shown in Table 6.2.
