Enright (Exelon Generation Company, LLC) to NRC, "Updated Information to Response to NRC Request Concerning Unresolved Item 05000454/2008008 and 05000455/2008008," dated March 5, 2009 In accordance with 10 CFR 50.90, "Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit," Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) is requesting changes to the Technical Specifications (TS) of Facility Operating License Nos. NPF-37 and NPF-66 for Byron Station, Unit 1 and Unit 2. Specifically, the proposed change will revise TS 3.7.9, "Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS)," to add additional essential service water (SX) cooling tower fan requirements as a function of SX pump discharge temperature to reflect results of a revised analysis for the UHS.

In Reference 1, the NRC requested a response describing EGC's intended actions and proposed schedule to resolve the noncompliance of single failure assumptions used in the Byron Station UHS design basis analysis. Reference 2 provided a summary of EGC's intended actions and proposed schedule to resolve the noncompliance. The intended action was to perform a revised analysis of the UHS to evaluate the impact of postulated passive electrical single failures . The results of this analysis would then be incorporated into the Byron Station design and licensing bases in accordance with 10 CFR 50 .59, "Changes, tests, and experiments." This was expected to be completed by December 5, 2008.

June 30, 2009 U . S . Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 However, in Reference 3, EGC provided an update to the intended actions since it was determined that the results of the revised analysis could not be incorporated into the Byron Station design and licensing bases in accordance with 10 CFR 50.59 without prior NRC approval . Specifically, Reference 3 stated that a license amendment request would be submitted to the NRC by the end of the second quarter 2009 .

This request is subdivided as follows :

" Attachment 1 provides an evaluation supporting the proposed change .

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION In accordance with 10 CFR 50.90, "Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit," Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) is requesting changes to the Technical Specifications (TS) of Facility Operating License Nos . NPF-37 and NPF-66 for Byron Station, Unit 1 and Unit 2 . Specifically, the proposed change will revise TS 3.7.9, "Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS)," to add additional essential service water (SX) cooling tower fan requirements as a function of SX pump discharge temperature to reflect results of a revised analysis for the UHS.

2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION The proposed changes are as follows. A markup of the proposed TS changes is provided in .

TS 3 .7.9 "ACTIONS"

" A new Condition A is added to address the requirement, dependent on the SX pump discharge temperature, that required operable cooling tower fans must be operating in high speed . If the required number of cooling tower fans are not running in high speed, then the Required Action is to initiate actions immediately to operate the fan in high speed .

" Current Condition A has been moved to become new Condition B due to the new Condition A having a shorter Completion Time .

" A new Condition C is added to address the outside air wet bulb temperature restriction when only six cooling tower fans are operable and the two inoperable cooling tower fans are powered by the same electrical division . The Required Action is to restore the cooling tower fan configuration such that two inoperable cooling tower fans are not powered by the same electrical division . The Completion Time is 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> .

" A new Condition D is added to address the condition of exceeding the maximum allowed SX pump discharge temperature of 96°F. In this condition, the required actions are to bring the Unit(s) to MODE 3 in six hours and MODE 5 in 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br /> .

" Current Conditions A through G and their associated Required Actions steps are re-lettered to account for the added new Conditions A, B, C and D. Current Condition G is revised to reflect the new Actions and the re-lettering .

" The Completion Time for current Conditions C, D, E, and F (new Conditions F,G, H and I) are revised to add "Once per" to the periodic monitoring requirements to make the wording consistent with Improved Technical Specifications standard wording for periodic monitoring required by an Action Condition. There is no change of intent for this revision .

ATTACHMENT 1 Evaluation of Proposed Change TS 3 .7 .9-"SURVEILANCE REQUIREMENTS"

" Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.7.9.2 is revised to implement the additional cooling tower fan requirements resulting from the revised analysis of the UHS. The new SR verifies that there are six required cooling tower fans when SX pump discharge temperature is less than or equal to 77°F. The SR is modified by a note . This Note stipulates that if SX pump discharge temperature is greater than 77°F, then the additional cooling tower fan requirements of Table 3 .7 .9-1 shall be met .

" Table 3 .7.9-1 contains the additional cooling tower fan requirements when SX pump discharge temperature is greater than 77°F. These additional requirements include the number of required operable cooling tower fans and whether they need to be running in high speed .

" A new SR 3.7 .9 .10 has been added to verify outside air wet bulb temperature is less than or equal to 76°F when two inoperable cooling tower fans are powered by the same electrical division . The SR number is intentionally not placed in the Improved Technical Specifications numbering convention of shortest to longest frequencies due to human error considerations associated with re-numbering all SRs in TS 3.7 .9 .

As described in Reference 1, a concern was identified by the NRC with respect to the single failure assumptions taken in the Byron UHS analysis . The specific concern was the Byron UHS analysis only considered single active breaker or switch failures that resulted in the failure of one essential service water cooling tower (SXCT) fan. Passive failures of the 4160 volt or 480 volt feed breakers which could de-energize the bus and result in the loss of two SXCT fans were not considered . Consistent with the definition of a single failure presented in 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, "General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants" and General Design Criteria (GDC) 44, "Cooling Water," the spurious failure (i .e ., opening) of 4160 volt or 480 volt feed breakers for the SXCT fans should have been considered a valid failure and should have been assessed accordingly.

In Reference 1, the NRC requested a response describing EGC's intended actions and a proposed schedule to resolve the noncompliance of single failure assumptions used in the Byron Station UHS design basis analysis .

In Reference 2, Byron Station provided a response to Reference 1 with intended actions and a proposed schedule . The intended action was to perform a revised analysis of the UHS to evaluate the impact of postulated passive electrical single failures . The results of this analysis would then be incorporated into the Byron Station design basis via requirements of 10 CFR 50.59, "Changes, tests, and experiments." This was expected to be completed by December 5, 2008 .

In Reference 3, Byron Station provided an update to the intended actions outlined in Reference 2. EGC determined that the results of the revised analysis could not be incorporated into the Byron Station design basis via requirements of 10 CFR 50.59, "Changes, tests, and experiments ." Reference 3 states that due to delays in finalizing the re-analysis, the updated intended action is to submit a license amendment request (LAR) to the NRC by the end of the second quarter 2009 .

ATTACHMENT 1 Evaluation of Proposed Change To compensate for the nonconforming condition, the EGC has implemented administrative controls to allow only one fan out of service, compared to two allowed by TS. Additionally, bounding SX pump discharge temperature limits based on the results of the revised analysis have been put in place. These administrative controls invoke the provisions of NRC Administrative Letter (AL) 98-10, "Dispositioning of Technical Specifications That Are Insufficient to Assure Plant Safety," and will remain in place until the NRC dispositions the proposed TS changes.

3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION

Backqround The UHS provides a heat sink for processing and operating heat from safety related components during a transient or accident, as well as during normal operation. This is done by utilizing the SX system and the Component Cooling Water (CC) system. In addition, the UHS is the safety related source of Auxiliary Feedwater (AF) in case the Condensate Storage Tank is unavailable .

The UHS is the sink for heat removed from the reactor core following all accidents and anticipated operational occurrences in which the unit is cooled down and placed on Residual Heat Removal (RHR) operation, as well as the sink for heat removed from containment via the reactor containment fan coolers.

The UHS is a common system and consists of two, four-cell, mechanical draft cooling towers, OA and OB, and a makeup system. Each tower has four manually actuated fans . Each fan can be run in either high or low speed . Two of the Tower OA fans are powered from Unit 1, Division 11 and the other two fans are powered from Unit 2, Division 21 . Similarly, two Tower OB fans are powered from Unit 1, Division 12 and the other two fans are powered from Unit 2, Division 22.

Design Analyses As described in Reference 1, a concern was identified by the NRC with respect to the single failure assumptions taken in the Byron UHS analysis . The specific concern was the Byron UHS analysis only considered single active breaker or switch failures that resulted in the failure of one essential service water cooling tower (SXCT) fan . Passive failures of the 4160 volt or 480 volt feed breakers, which could de-energize the bus and result in the loss of two SXCT fans, were not considered . Consistent with the definition of a single failure presented in 10 CFR 50, Appendix A, "General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants," and General Design Criteria (GDC) 44, "Cooling Water," the spurious failure (i.e., opening) of 4160 volt or 480 volt feed breakers for the SXCT fans should have been considered a valid failure and should have been assessed accordingly.

To address this single failure assumption concern, additional time dependent basin temperature calculations were performed to evaluate the postulated passive breaker failures . The calculations were performed using the methodology described in UFSAR Section 9.2.5.3.1 .1 .3, "Time Dependent Basin Temperature Calculations ."

Page 4 of 11

ATTACHMENT I Evaluation of Proposed Change 1 . These calculations predicted the basin temperature using a time dependent two cooling tower model .

2. The time dependent feature of the model was developed to account for the transient nature of the loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA) heat load. The calculations used the time dependent total heat loads to determine the amount of heat added to the essential service water system.
3. The two cooling tower model was developed to provide the capability to analyze different flow and energy (i.e., heat load) going to each of the cooling towers . The flow to each of the cooling towers could be significantly different under different accident scenarios. Depending on the scenario, the modeling of energy transport also considered the distribution of miscellaneous heat loads. Cooling was assumed to occur only for cells with fans running at high speed.

UFSAR Section 9.2.5.3 .1 .1 .1, "Containment Heat Load Calculations," and UFSAR Section 9.2 .5 .3 .1 .1 .2, "Steady State Tower Performance Analysis," describe the containment heat load calculations and the steady state tower performance analysis used as input to the time dependent basin temperature calculations .

As described in UFSAR Section 2 .3 .1 .2 .4, "Ultimate Heat Sink Design," per Reference 4, Regulatory Guide 1 .27, Revision 2, "Ultimate Heat Sink for Nuclear Power Plants," the UHS must be capable of performing its cooling function during the design basis event for the worst-case three-hour air wet bulb temperature. The UHS time dependent temperature analysis was conducted with the highest three-hour air wet bulb temperature of 82°F.

The following input changes were made in the calculations to evaluate postulated passive breaker failures :

New scenarios were developed for postulated breaker failures with zero, one, and two SXCT fans assumed to be inoperable .

" The previous analysis assumed that for an active fan failure, operator action would be taken to isolate the associated riser valve to optimize heat removal in the cooling tower.

Cooling was previously assumed to occur only for the cells with fans running at high speed. Postulated breaker failures would also result in the loss of power to the motor operated riser valves for the impacted SXCT fan. If the riser valve for the affected fan was open prior to the postulated breaker failure, operator actions to isolate the riser valves and redistribute SX return water to active cooling tower cells cannot be taken from the control room. For the revised analysis, the fraction of water cooled for SX cooling tower cells with fans not running is assumed to be 0 .10 (i.e., 10% of the water delivered to that cell is effectively cooled). This is based on input from the cooling tower manufacturer of minimum cooling tower performance without fan airflow.

The SX flow model was used to calculate SX flow to the cooling tower cells for the new scenario alignments . Cooling tower cell flow is an input to the steady state tower performance analysis.

Page 5 of 11

ATTACHMENT 1 Evaluation of Proposed Change The heat load on the UHS was recalculated to remove the heat load from the recycle evaporator that has been abandoned in place.

In a LOCA event, under the most severe design basis weather conditions (i.e.,

maximum air wet bulb temperature), with a breaker failure that results in the loss of two SXCT fans, it is assumed that operators will shed heat load by securing up to two of the four reactor containment fan coolers on the LOCA unit within 30 minutes. As discussed in UFSAR Section 6.2.2, "Containment Heat Removal System," only one of the two reactor containment fan cooler trains is required for post-accident containment heat removal . This is a reasonable assumption because the required action can be taken from the control room . EGC will revise appropriate procedures, as part of the implementation activities for the proposed license amendment, to ensure procedural guidance is put in place to direct these actions.

Initial SX basin temperatures were calculated based on maintaining the peak basin temperature less than the SX system design temperature of 100°F for all evaluated scenarios. The calculation results, assuming a postulated breaker failure that causes the loss of two SXCT fans, are summarized as follows :

Cells Initially Fans Initially Fans Running Initial Basin Maximum Basin Out of Service Running " erature 2 0 4 77°F 99.7°F 2 6 4 84°F 99 .9°F 1 0 5 82°F 99.7°F 1 __ 7 _ 5 91 °F 99.6°F 0 8 6 96°F 98.6°F For the scenarios where two fans are initially out of service, it was determined that either the fans need to be powered by different buses or the outside air wet bulb temperature must be less than 76°F. This limitation is required because with two fans out of service on the same electrical division, a postulated breaker failure could result in two additional fans being lost on the same tower (i.e., no fans running on one tower and four fans running on the second tower) as outlined in scenario 8C1 of Attachment 6 . In this configuration, with the worst-case three-hour air wet bulb temperature of 82°F, the initial basin temperature required to prevent the calculated peak basin temperature from exceeding the design SX system design temperature of 100°F was below the normal basin operating temperature. Thus, the proposed Technical Specification requires that when only six cooling tower fans are operable and the two inoperable cooling tower fans are powered by the same electrical division, the outside air wet bulb temperature must be less than 76°F. includes the analytical basis for the proposed change. Specifically, Attachment 4 provides the portion of calculation NED-M-MSD-009, "Byron Ultimate Heat Sink Cooling Tower Basin Temperature Calculation : Part IV," Revision 8, that evaluates the breaker failure . includes validation of Assumption 3.1 from Attachment 4 (i .e., the assumption that 10% of the water is cooled for SX cooling tower cells with fans not running) . Attachment 6 Page 6 of 11

ATTACHMENT 1 Evaluation of Proposed Change includes simplified drawings of scenarios 8A, 8B, 8D1, SC, 8D, 8C1, and 8C2 as described in .

The cool weather UHS basin temperature analysis was also revised . During cool weather, the SXCT bypass valves could be open . Postulated breaker failures could result in the power loss of two SXCT fans, the two SX riser valves for the cells associated with the lost SX fans, and the power loss of one SX basin bypass valve for the SXCT that has the lost SX fans and associated riser valves . The analysis showed that maximum basin water temperature remained below 100°F for postulated single failures of electrical breakers serving the SX system components occurring concurrent with a LOCA and a loss of offsite power on one unit, with the opposite unit in normal shutdown . includes the portion of calculation NED-M-MSD-011, "Byron Ultimate Heat Sink Cooling Tower Basin Temperature Calculation: Part V (Bypass Operation)," Revision 3, that evaluates the breaker failure during cool weather when the SXCT bypass valves could be open . includes simplified drawings of scenarios 10, 11, 12, and 13 as described in .

Several of the assumptions used in the analyses were inherently conservative . These conservatisms, while not quantitatively analyzed, provide additional margin to the 100°F SX system design temperature. Some of the major conservatisms are listed below.

" As described in UFSAR Section 9.2.5.3.1 .1 .1, "Containment Heat Load Calculations,"

the heat input to the UHS is conservatively based on assuming higher SX flow rates to the reactor containment fan coolers, assuming higher air flow rates to the reactor containment fan coolers, and assuming earlier switchover to containment recirculation phase and corresponding earlier RHR heat loads . Additionally, the calculated maximum heat input from the reactor containment fan coolers was conservatively based on an assumed SX supply temperature of 32°F . This value is conservative compared to the calculated peak UHS temperatures .

" Basin level in the analysis is based on less than the TS minimum level of 60%. SX basin level is normally maintained higher than the TS minimum, which would provide additional water inventory heat capacity .

To ensure that the actual UHS temperature does not exceed the TS surveillance limit, the surveillance procedure used to demonstrate compliance with the TS surveillance limit will be revised to accommodate instrument uncertainty.

4 .0 REGULATORY EVALUATION 4.1 Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria The NRC Standard Review Plan (SRP) Section 9 .2.5, "Ultimate Heat Sink," in Reference 5, applies to the design of the UHS. The acceptability of the design of the UHS is based on Reference 4, Regulatory Guide 1 .27, Revision 2, "Ultimate Heat Sink for Nuclear Power Plants," and the following GDC of 10 CFR 50, Appendix A:

Page 7 of 11

ATTACHMENT 1 Evaluation of Proposed Change GDC 2 - Design bases for protection against natural phenomena; GDC 4 - Environmental and dynamic effects design basis; GDC 5 - Sharing of structures, system, and components ;

GDC 17 - Electric power systems; GDC 38 - Containment heat removal; GDC 44 - Cooling water; GDC 45 - Inspection of cooling water system; and GDC 46 - Testing of cooling water system .

EGC has reviewed the basis for conformance to these GDC, as described in the Byron Station UFSAR, and has concluded that the proposed change remains in conformance with all requirements . The proposed change addresses possible breaker failures to meet the requirements of GDC 44, including the requirement to ensure the system safety function can be accomplished assuming a single failure. The guidance provided in Regulatory Guide 1 .27, Revision 2, was employed for the temperature analysis of the Byron UHS. The UHS, with the proposed changes, will continue to meet the applicable acceptance criteria of SRP Section 9 .2 .5 and Regulatory Guide 1 .27 .

Based on the above, it is concluded that the UHS will continue to meet the requirements of GDC 2, 4, 5, 17, 38, 44, 45, and 46 and is, therefore, acceptable with the proposed change.

4.2 Precedent The NRC previously approved a similar amendment for Vogtle Electric Generating Plant.

In a letter dated December 2, 2005, Reference 6, the NRC approved a license amendment request that added temperature-graded nuclear service cooling water fan operability requirements to TS 3.7.9, "Ultimate Heat Sink," since the TS only required the UHS system to be operable . Similar to the EGC proposed change to include the consideration of the spurious failure and/or opening of the 4160 volt or 480 volt, the Vogtle addition of nuclear service cooling water fan operability requirements to TS was considered to be a change to nonconservative UHS TS requirements .

4.3 No Significant Hazards Consideration In accordance with 10 CFR 50 .90, "Application for amendment of license, construction permit, or early site permit," Exelon Generation Company, LLC (EGC) is requesting changes to the Technical Specifications (TS) of Facility Operating License Nos . NPF-37 and NPF-66 for Byron Station, Unit 1 and Unit 2 . Specifically, the proposed change will revise TS 3.7.9, "Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS)," to add additional essential service water (SX) cooling tower fan requirements as a function of SX pump discharge temperature to reflect results of a revised analysis for the UHS.

According to 10 CFR 50.92, "Issuance of amendment," paragraph (c), a proposed amendment to an operating license involves no significant hazards consideration if operation of the facility in accordance with the proposed amendment would not:

Page 8 of 11

ATTACHMENT 1 Evaluation of Proposed Change Involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of any accident previously evaluated ; or (2) Create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated ; or Involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety .

EGC has evaluated the proposed change, using the criteria in 10 CFR 50.92, and has determined that the proposed change does not involve a significant hazards consideration . The following information is provided to support a finding of no significant hazards consideration .

1. Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response : No The proposed change does not result in any physical changes to safety related structures, systems, or components . The UHS itself is not an accident initiator; rather, the UHS performs functions to mitigate accidents by serving as the heat sink for safety related equipment. Consequently, the proposed change does not increase the probability of occurrence for any accident previously evaluated.

The UHS plays a vital role in mitigating the consequences of any accident or transient. The proposed changes will ensure that the minimum conditions necessary for the UHS to perform its design functions will always be met.

Engineering calculations demonstrate that the SX pump discharge design temperature limit of 100°F, which was assumed as an initial input for the accident analyses, is preserved. Consequently, the proposed changes to cooling tower fan requirements, relative to the SX pump discharge temperature, do not increase the consequences of any accident previously evaluated .

Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated .

2. Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response : No The supporting analyses for the proposed change do not involve a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. The proposed limits on maximum SX pump discharge temperature, and the proposed fan requirements, are within the design capabilities of the UHS and ensure that the UHS will always be in a condition to perform its design function in the event of an accident or transient. New and revised analyses that support the requested TS changes ensure the full qualification of the UHS . No changes are being made to Page 9 of 11

ATTACHMENT 1 Evaluation of Proposed Change the physical design of the UHS such that the possibility of a new or different kind of accident would be created . Consequently, these changes do not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from those previously evaluated .

Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated .

3. Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response : No The proposed limits on SX pump discharge maximum temperature are based on the results of new and revised design analyses that ensure that the margin of safety is not reduced. The new limits on temperature will ensure that, under the most limiting accident or transient scenario, cooling water will meet the accident analyses SX design temperature limit of 100°F.

Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based on the above evaluation, EGC has concluded that the proposed amendment presents no significant hazards considerations under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c) .

4.4 Conclusion In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations, and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public .

5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

EGC has determined that the proposed amendment would change a requirement with respect to installation or use of a facility component located within the restricted area, as defined in 10 CFR 20, "Standards for Protection Against Radiation." However, the proposed amendment does not involve : (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or significant increase in the amounts of any effluent that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure . Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51 .22, "Criterion for categorical exclusion ; identification of licensing and regulatory actions eligible for categorical exclusion or otherwise not requiring environmental review,"

paragraph (c)(9) . Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51 .22, paragraph (b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment needs to be prepared in connection with the proposed amendment.

UHS B 3 .7 .9 B 3 .7 PLANT SYSTEMS B 3 .7 .9 Ultimate Heat Sink (UHS)

BASES BACKGROUND The UHS provides a heat sink for processing and operating heat from safety related components during a transient or accident, as well as during normal operation . This is done by utilizing the Essential Service Water (SX) System and the Component Cooling Water (CC) System .

In addition, the UHS is the safety related source of Auxiliary Feedwater (AF) in case the Condensate Storage Tank is unavailable .

The UHS is a common system and consists of two, four cell, mechanical draft cooling towers (OA and OB) and a makeup system . Each tower has four fans (with two speeds - high and low), which are manually actuated . Two of the Tower OA fans are powered from Unit 1, Division 11 and two fans are powered from Unit 2, Division 21 . Similarly two Tower OB fans are powered from Unit 1, Division 12 and two fans are powered from Unit 2, Division 22 .

The normal makeup to the towers is provided by the non-safety related, non-engineered safety feature, Circulating Water System . Two safety related diesel-driven makeup pumps, which take suction from the Rock River, provide makeup to each of the towers (one pump per tower) .

Level switches are provided to automatically start the pump on low level in the associated tower basin . In addition, a deep well pump, powered from the engineered safety feature bus associated with each tower is capable of providing makeup to either basin . The deep well pumps do not include automatic start capability . The two tower basins communicate at approximately the 64% basin level .

Each makeup source is capable of supplying sufficient makeup water to maintain adequate basin inventory . Makeup is required to compensate for AF supply, as well as drift, evaporation and blowdown losses, resulting from design basis Loss Of Coolant Accident (LOCA) conditions in one unit concurrent with the safe shutdown of the other unit .

UHS B 3 .7 .9 BASES BACKGROUND (continued)

Additional information on the design and operation of the system, along with a list of components served, can be found in UFSAR, Section 9 .2 .5 (Ref . 1) .

APPLICABLE The UHS is the sink for heat removed from the reactor core SAFETY ANALYSES following all accidents and anticipated operational occurrences in which the unit is cooled down and placed on Residual Heat Removal (RHR) operation as well as the sink for heat removed from containment via the reactor containment fan coolers . The UHS performance requirements are that the design basis temperatures of safety related equipment served by SX, either directly or indirectly are not exceeded . The UHS maximum post accident heat load occurs near the time the unit switches from injection to recirculation and the containment cooling systems and residual heat removal systems are required to remove core decay heat . The status of both units must be considered in the UHS analyses, because the UHS is a common system . The design basis accident analyses for the UHS is based on design basis LOCA/loss of offsite power conditions on one unit concurrent with the safe shutdown from maximum power of the other unit . References 2, 3, provide details of the UHS design basis analyses . The nalyses include worst expected meteorological conditions, conservative uncertainties when calculating dec y heat, and worst case single e failures .

The analyses consider the AF System requirements, whose safety related source of water is the SX System .

The UHS is designed in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1 .27 (Ref . 4), which requires a 30 day supply of cooling water in the UHS . The UHS requires makeup to the basins to meet this requirement . The safety related source of makeup is the two diesel driven SX makeup pumps which take suction from the Rock River . The diesel driven SX makeup pumps auto start on low level in their associated tower basin . The SX makeup system is designed to withstand all design basis natural phenomena events and combination of events except for seismic events during low Rock River flow or level (loss of SX makeup pump suction), tornado, and river flood .

Therefore, constraints on river level and flow are imposed, and if the weather is conducive to tornadoes or high river levels, plant procedures dictate proactive actions .

BYRON - UNITS 1 & 2 B 3 .7 .9 - 3 Revision 0

INSERT B 3.7.9-1 The UHS maximum basin design temperature is 100°F. To ensure this limit is not exceeded, the cooling tower fans requirements vary with increasing SX pump discharge temperature .

These requirements involve an increasing number of required cooling tower fans to be OPERABLE and whether those fans need to be running in high speed . The design analysis for determining these requirements was based on the worst-case three-hour wet bulb temperature of 82°F. For example, if SX pump discharge temperature is < 77°F, then only six of the eight cooling tower fans need to be OPERABLE and none are required to be running in high speed .

If the SX pump discharge temperature is > 91'F and < 96°F, then all eight cooling tower fans need to be OPERABLE and all running in high speed_ Detailed limits are included in the LCO section .

When fans are required to be running in high speed the heat transfer is credited immediately following the event because fans will automatically reenergize with the respective diesel generator output breaker auto-closure . When fans are not required to be running in high speed heat transfer is not credited until operator action opens riser valves and starts the fans .

The SX pump discharge temperature limits are based on a design assumption that in the event of a LOCH, under the most severe design basis weather conditions, and a single breaker failure results in the loss of two cooling tower fans, the Operators will shed heat load by securing up to two of the four reactor containment fan coolers (RCFCs) on the LOCA unit within 30 minutes.

Only one of the two trains of RCFCs is required to operate for post accident containment heat removal .

When two fans are inoperable on the same bus, a postulated breaker failure could result in two additional fans being lost on the same SX cooling tower resulting in no cooling fans available on one tower and four fans available on the second tower. In this configuration the overall cooling tower performance is less than when fans are available on both towers . To support accident heat removal with two fans inoperable on the same electrical division, a lower outside air wet bulb temperature is required . An inoperable cooling tower fan is defined as being in a state such that it could not be included as a required OPERABLE fan, if necessary.

UHS B 3 .7 .9 BASES APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES (continued)

A backup makeup source is provided by deep well pumps . The deep well system is designed for seismic, tornado, and river flood events . Each deep well pump is powered from the engineered safety feature bus for the associated tower . The deep well pumps do not include automatic start capability .

To compensate for the possible time delay in providing makeup associated with a manual start of the deep well pumps, the minimum acceptable volume of water maintained in each basin is raised (903 level) and the level is verified every 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> .

The UHS satisfies Criterion 3 of 10 CFR 50 .36(c)(2)(ii) .

LCO The UHS is required to be OPERABLE and is considered OPERABLE if it has available a sufficient volume of water at or below the maximum temperature that would allow the SX System to operate for at least 30 days following the design basis event without the loss of Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH), and without exceeding the maximum design temperature of the equipment served by the SX System .

Replace with INSERT B 3 .7 .9-2 desigH basis eveRt .

Two diesel powered SX makeup pumps must also be OPERABLE .

SX makeup pump OPERABILITY includes, auto start capability on low basin level, and sufficient river level (> 664 .7 ft Mean Sea Level (MSL)) and flow combinations .

BYRON - UNITS 1 & 2 B 3 .7 .9 - 4 Revision 0

INSERT B 3.7.9-2 To meet the SX supply design temperature under postulated accident conditions a minimum number of SX cooling tower fans need to be OPERABLE to remove the postulated accident heat load. A minimum of four fans are required to support post-accident heat removal and a normal cool down of the non-accident unit when the SX pump discharge temperature is _< 77°F .

A single failure could result in the loss of two fans, thus a minimum of six cooling tower fans are required to be OPERABLE . As SX pump discharge temperature increases above 77°F, additional cooling tower fan requirements are necessary.

A cooling tower fan is considered OPERABLE when it has a structurally sound cooling cell, a water distribution system, and the capability of running in high speed for 30 days. The cooling tower fan requirements vary with increasing SX pump discharge temperature.

The specific cooling tower fan requirements are:

If SX pump discharge temperature is _< 77°F, then six cooling tower fans are required to be OPERABLE .

If SX pump discharge temperature is > 77°F and _< 82°F, then either six cooling tower fans are required to be OPERABLE and all six need to be running in high speed, or seven cooling tower fans are required to be OPERABLE .

If SX pump discharge temperature is > 82°F and _< 84°F, then six cooling tower fans are required to be OPERABLE and all six need to be running in high speed .

If SX pump discharge temperature is > 84°F and _< 91 °F, then seven cooling tower fans are required to be OPERABLE and all seven need to be running in high speed.

If SX pump discharge temperature is > 91 °F and _< 96°F, then eight cooling tower fans are required to be OPERABLE and all eight need to be running in high speed .

In addition, if only six cooling tower fans are OPERABLE and the same electrical division powers the two inoperable cooling tower fans, then the outside air wet bulb temperature must be _< 76°F . An inoperable cooling tower fan is defined as being in a state such that it could not be included as a required OPERABLE fan, if necessary.

UHS B 3 .7 .9 BASES APPLICABILITY In MODES 1, 2, 3, and 4, the UHS is required to support the OPERABILITY of the equipment serviced by the UHS and required to be OPERABLE in these MODES .

In MODE 5 or 6, the OPERABILITY requirements of the UHS are determined by the systems it supports .

ACTIONS If one required fan is inoperable (i .e ., eRy5 faHs OPERABLE), action must be taken to restore the inoperable cooling tower fan to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> .

INSERT B 3. 7.9-3 If there are less than the required number of cooling tower fans running in high speed, then actions must be initiated to operate all the required OPERABLE cooling cell fans in high speed .

This action ensures the 100°F design temperature limit will not be exceeded during a design basis accident. The immediate Completion Time is reasonable since an OPERABLE cooling tower fan must be capable of running in high speed and the fan can be placed in this condition from the Main Control Room . Condition A is modified by a Note that indicates it is only applicable when additional cooling tower fan requirements of Table 3 .7.9-1 require OPERABLE cooling tower fans to be running in high speed.

INSERT B 3.7.9-4 If there are two inoperable cooling tower fans, both of which are powered by the same electrical division, and the outside wet bulb temperature exceeds 76°F, then a single failure could make all cooling tower fans inoperable on one tower. In this potential configuration, the outside air wet bulb temperature must be restricted to being < 76°F in order to keep from exceeding the design SX system temperature of 100°F . Consequently, the Required Action is to reconfigure cooling tower fans such that the two inoperable cooling tower fans are not powered by the same electrical division .

The 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> Completion Time is reasonable based on the low probability of an accident occurring during the 72 hour8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> timeframe in addition to a single failure disabling two cooling tower fans on the same tower that the initial two cooling tower fans were inoperable on .

D.1 and D.2 If the SX pump discharge temperature exceeds 96°F, then the UHS cooling tower fans cannot prevent the design SX system temperature limit of 100°F from being exceeded during a design basis accident . Consequently, in this condition, the unit must be placed in a MODE in which the LCO does not apply . To achieve this status, the unit must be placed in MODE 3 within 6 hours6.944444e-5 days <br />0.00167 hours <br />9.920635e-6 weeks <br />2.283e-6 months <br /> and in MODE 5 within 36 hours4.166667e-4 days <br />0.01 hours <br />5.952381e-5 weeks <br />1.3698e-5 months <br /> .

BASES ACTIONS (continued)

Required Action 4-.-3 requires the SX makeup pump to be restored to OPERABLE status within 7 days or 14 days respectively . The 7 day limit is applicable if both Unit 1 and Unit 2 are in MODE l, 2, 3, or 4 . The 14 day limit is only applicable if either Unit 1 or Unit 2 is in MODE 5, MODE 6, or defueled . This Required Action serves to provide up to 7 days to restore a SX makeup pump when both units are operating, and up to 14 days when one unit is operating and the other is shutdown . The 14 day allowance provides adequate time to perform pump inspection and extended maintenance when one unit is in an outage . Without this allowance, a dual-unit outage would be required to perform maintenance that requires more than 7 days to complete . The extended Completion Time when one unit is in shutdown is also based on the reduction in the quantity of heat that would have to be removed by the UHS when one unit is in a shutdown condition, a reduction in the amount of water that may be required to satisfy AF demands, and the availability of the other makeup water sources . Although the 14 day Completion Time was justified based on the need to perform extended maintenance, its use and application is not restricted to these activities because the effects of SX makeup pump inoperability are unrelated to the cause of the inoperability .

UHS B 3 .7 .9 BASES ACTIONS (continued) 1 .1 . 1 .2, and 1.3 J F .I . P .2 . aRd FA The SX makeup pumps provide the safety-related*nakeup capability to the UHS, however when Condition 1= applies, the pumps may not be capable of performing the required function . With water level or flow in the Rock River outside of the limits specified, the pumps may not have adequate NPSH or inventory to supply the required makeup to the UHS if an accident occurs . If water level is forecast to exceed 702 ft MSL on the Rock River, the SX makeup pumps may be subjected to flooding that would render them inoperable . Similarly, if a Tornado Watch exists that includes the Byron site, the pumps may not be capable of performing their required function because the river screen house that contains the pumps is not designed to protect them from a tornado .

In these conditions, alternative makeup capability to the UHS must be available and the inventory in the UHS basin must be large enough to permit manual initiation of the alternative source . The deep well pumps supply the alternative makeup capability to the UHS . To assure adequate inventory in the UHS to permit a delay in makeup for manual initiation of the deep well pumps, the level in each tower basin must be verified to be greater than or equal to 90% within 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />, and every 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> thereafter .

It also ensures that fan or motor failure, or excessive vibration, can be detected for corrective action .

The 31 day Frequency is based on operating experience, the known reliability of the fan units, the redundancy available, and the low probability of significant degradation of the UHS cooling tower fans occurring between surveillances .

SR- 37-9 5 Verifying the correct alignment for manual, power operated, and automatic valves in the SX makeup flow path provides assurance that the proper flow paths exist for SX makeup operation . This SR does not apply to valves that are locked, sealed, or otherwise secured in position, since they are verified to be in the correct position prior to being locked, sealed, or secured . This SR does not require any testing or valve manipulation ; rather, it involves verification that those valves capable of being mispositioned are in the correct position . This SR does not app1 y to valves that cannot be inadvertently misaligned, such as check valves .

The 31 day Frequency is based on engineering judgment, is consistent with the procedural controls governing valve operation, and ensures correct valve positions .

SR 3 .7 .a,6 This SR verifies that each SX makeup pump starts and operates on an actual or simulated) ow basin level signal for >_ 30 minutes .

SR 3 .7_.9,8 This SR requires that each testable valve in the SX makeup system flow path be cycled through at least one complete cycle of travel every 18 months . This SR applies to the flow path from the SX makeup pumps to the UHS basins . The SR provides assurance that if a flow path is required, it can be aligned properly .

The 18 month Frequency is based on the low probability of an undetected failure, and is consistent with testing required by the IST program .

SR 3 .7 .9 .9 The tests of fuel oil are a means of assuring it has not been contaminated with substances that would have an immediate, detrimental impact on diesel engine combustion .

The tests, limits, and applicable ASTM Standards are listed in the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Program in Specification 5 .5 .13 .

Fuel oil degradation during long term storage shows up as an increase in particulate, due mostly to oxidation . The presence of particulate does not mean the fuel oil will not burn properly in a diesel engine . The particulate can cause fouling of filters and fuel oil injection equipment, however, which can cause engine failure .

Particulate concentrations should be determined in accordance with ASTM D5452 (Ref . 5) . This method involves a determination of total particulate concentration in the fuel oil and has a limit of 10 mg/l . It is acceptable to obtain a field sample for subsequent laboratory testing in lieu of field testing .

Fuel Oil to the Essential Service Water Makeup Pump Day Tanks is supplied from the outside fuel oil storage tanks .

These tanks are also subject to the requirements of the Diesel Fuel Oil Testing Program, as described in Specification 5 .5 .13 .

The Frequency of this test takes into consideration fuel oil degradation trends that indicate that particulate concentration is unlikely to change significantly between INSERT Frequency intervals .

If there are two inoperable cooling tower fans, both of which are powered by the same electrical division, and the outside air wet bulb temperature exceeds 76°F, then a single failure could make all cooling tower cells inoperable on one tower.

In this potential configuration, the outside air wet bulb temperature must be restricted to being

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix H PAGE H1 APPENDIX H Scenarios 8A, 813, 8C, 8C1, 8C2, 8D, and 8D1 Evaluations

(CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO 8, Appendix H PAGE H2 1 .0 PURPOSE The purpose of this Appendix is to incorporate additional scenarios 8A, 813 ' 8C, 8C1, 8C2, 8D, and 8D1 for postulated single failures of electrical breakers serving the SX system components occurring concurrent with a LOCA and a LOOP on one unit with the opposite unit in normal shutdown as described in UHS-01 [Ref. 4.3]. This appendix provides the analytical basis for proposed changes to Technical Specifications surveillance of SX cooling tower basin temperatures .

2.0 DESIGN INPUTS The design inputs specified in Revisions 0 through 7 of this calculation apply to the present revision except the following :

2.1 SX water inventory per tower is equal to the basin volume of 59%, or 40,578 ft3 [Ref. 4.9],

which is one percent below the Technical Specification minimum value of 60% [Ref. 4 .5] .

The volume of water in the return and supply piping of 34,043 ft3 is then added [Ref. 4.6]

to the basin volume . The volume of silt in the basin (3,312 ft3 per basin per Ref . 4.7) is subtracted from the SX water inventory used for the calculation so that it is not included as part of the heat sink. The total (for both towers) SX water inventory volume =

[(40,578-3,312) ft3 +34,043 ft3] per tower x 7.48 gal/ft3 x 2 towers = 1 .068 x 10 6 gallons .

2.2 The accident scenarios used in this revision of the calculation are taken from UHS-01

[Ref. 4.3] Attachment B and are consistent with scenarios 8A, 813, 8C, 8C1, 8C2, and 8D in BYR96-259 [Ref. 4.2] and BYR97-127 [Ref. 4.1].

2.3 Flows through the two trains of the SX tower for accident scenarios 8A, 813, SC, 8C1, 8C2, and 8D are taken from BYR96-259, Rev . 2 [Ref. 4 .2] Attachment C, and BYR97-127

[Ref. 4.1] Attachment C, and are discussed in more detail in Section 7.1 .

2.4 LOCA unit heat loads are taken from Table 11 of ATD-0063, Rev . 4B [Ref. 4.4] . These heat loads include non-accident heat loads, accident heat loads, and miscellaneous heat loads.

2 .5 Cooling tower performance curves for scenarios 8A, 813, 8C, 8C1, 8C2, and 8D are based on tower performance data from scenarios 8A, 813, 8C, 8C1, 8C2, and 8D of BYR97-127, Rev . 1 [Ref. 4.1] . Scenario 8C1 is run at wet bulb temperatures of 82°F and 76°F. The 76°F wet bulb tower performance curve is used in this analysis as discussed in Section 6 .1 .

2.6 The cooling tower riser flow rates used in this calculation have 250 gpm subtracted from them, as described in Appendix D of this calculation .

3.0 ASSUMPTIONS All assumptions in the calculation main body are valid for this Appendix H calculation.

3.1 The fraction of water cooled for SX cooling tower cells with fans not running is assumed to be 0.10 (i.e., 10% of the water delivered to that cell is effectively cooled) . This is based on input from the cooling tower manufacturer as a reasonable estimate of minimum cooling tower performance without fan air flow [Ref. 4.8]. See Appendix I of this calculation for a more detailed analysis to justify this assumption. For scenarios where a tower has at least one active cell, tower performance curves are based on the average flow to the active cells . This approach is justified since the majority of the cooling is provided by the active cells, and the difference in flow between tower cells is small . For

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix H PAGE H3 Tower B in scenario 8C1, there are no active cells. In this case, the tower performance curve is based on the average flow to the passive cells.

3.2 Consistent with Technical Specification 3.7.9 [Ref. 4.5], an initial maximum basin temperature of 96°F with seven or more fans running and an initial maximum temperature of 90°F with less than seven fans running are used. For those scenarios which exceed the SX design temperature of 100°F, with an initial basin temperature of 96°F or 90°F, a new lower initial maximum cold water basin temperature will be determined which will maintain the basin temperature below 100°F. These new initial basin temperatures will become the basis for changes to Technical Specification 3.7.9.

3.3 For scenarios 8D and 8D1, no cooling is credited prior to fan initiation at 10 minutes .

3.4 The heat loads taken from Table 11 of ATD-0063, Rev . 4B [Ref. 4.4] assume that half the RCFC heat load on the accident unit is shed at, or prior to, 30 minutes . Since no procedures are currently in place to implement this operator action, this assumption is considered unverified . (UNVERFIFED)

NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO . 8, Appendix H PAGE H4 6.0 METHOD OF ANALYSIS Appendix H of this calculation will use the ESW cooling tower transient model from Appendix G of this calculation to calculate the basin temperature response for additional scenarios 8A, 8B, 8C, 8C1, 8C2, 8D, and 8D1 . Revisions to the Appendix G Mathcad model required to perform the Appendix H analysis are summarized as follows :

1) The revised Total Heat Load to the UHS curve from ATD-0063 [Ref. 4.4] (Table 11) will be incorporated . This curve is the summation of the non-accident unit RHR heat load, the accident heat load, and the miscellaneous heat load from both units.
2) New scenarios 8A, SB, 8C, 8C1, 8C2, 8D, and 8D1 are being evaluated for postulated single failures of electrical breakers serving the SX system components occurring concurrent with a LOCA and a LOOP on one unit with the opposite unit in normal shutdown as described in UHS-01 [Ref. 4.3] .
3) For scenarios 8A, 8B, 8C, 8C1, 8C2, 8D, and 8D1 new flow rates and tower performance curves were generated [Ref.'s 4 .2 and 4.1] and are used as inputs .
4) Partial credit is taken for cooling (10%) in tower cells with water flow but no fan in operation (see Assumption 3.1) . For scenarios where a tower has at least one active cell, tower performance curves are based on the average flow to the active cells.

This approach is justified since the majority of the cooling is provided by the active cells, and the difference in flow between tower cells is small . For Tower B in scenario 8C1, there are no active cells. In this case, the tower performance curve is based on the average flow to the passive cells.

The Byron ESW cooling tower performance is acceptable if the calculated basin temperature is below the SX cooling tower basin design temperature of 100°F.

6.1 Scenario 8C1 76°F Wet Bulb Temperature When Scenario 8C1 was run with 10% passive fan cooling, reduced miscellaneous heat load, and RCFC heat load shed at 30 minutes, the maximum basin temperature was greater than 100°F. Scenario 8C1 assumes two SXCT fans powered by the same bus are out of service (OOS) . Taking two fans OOS on the bus generally occurs during planned maintenance windows on the bus . To facilitate maintenance, the wet bulb temperature was varied to obtain an acceptable basin temperature .

6 .2 Tower Performance Curves The tower performance curves are shown in Figures H-1 through H-6 for each scenario .

These figures plot THot vs Tco,d for each tower performance curve for each cooling tower as provided by BYR97-127 [Ref. 4.1] . For each scenario, two points were selected from the applicable tower performance curve to provide a linear approximation of tower performance over the range of THot and Tco,d temperatures expected for that scenario.

The selected points are checked against final results to confirm their applicability to the actual temperature range. These points are listed as Th1, Th2, Th3, Th4, Tc1, Tc2, Tc3, and Tc4 in the Mathcad models.

7.0 NUMERICAL ANALYSIS Operator Actions - All accident scenarios evaluated in this Appendix credit operator action to reduce the heat load rejected to the UHS within 30 minutes post-LOCA by securing fans on two of four RCFCs .

(CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix H PAGE H5 7.1 Flow Rate Analysis As discussed in BYR96-259 [Ref. 4.2] and BYR97-127 [Ref. 4.1], leakage is taken into account when determining the average flow rates. Also, in order to account for 10%

cooling for passive fans (see Assumption 3.1), the flow rate for that cell is multiplied by 0.1 after leakage is taken into account as shown in the tables below.

To calculate the flow through the operating cells 250 gpm is subtracted from each open riser to account for the flow in the open 2" riser leak-off line (see Design Input 2 .6) .

The output from the MathCAD calculation for this scenario is shown on pages H86 through H99 . The maximum basin temperature, Tbmax, is calculated to be 100 .7°F with an initial basin temperature of 80°F (current Tech Spec limit) . The maximum basin temperature, Tbmax, is calculated to be 99.7°F with an initial basin temperature of 77°F (new Tech Spec limit) . The temperature at 30 minutes is calculated to be 98.8°F with an initial basin temperature of 77°F. Both of these values (with new Tech Spec limit) are below the acceptance limit of 100°F.

7.1 .7 Accident Scenario 8D1 This scenario is the same setup as Scenario 8B with the exception that no fans are running initially . No cooling is credited prior to fan initiation at 10 minutes (see Assumption 3.3) .

The single failure considered for Scenario 8D1 is the loss of power to Cells E and F cooling tower fans.

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix H PAGE H15 The initial conditions assume a basin temperature of 82°F with one SX pump running on each unit. This scenario assumes one tower cell (G) is out of service (OOS) . Initially, no fans on all the other cells are running and all the bypass valves are closed.

The total heat load to be used for this scenario is the "Total Heat Load to the UHS" shown in Table 11 of ATD-0063, Rev . 413 [Ref. 4.4], with half of the RCFC heat load subtracted at 30 minutes .

The flow parameters f, Q, M1, 131, M2, 132, a, and 0 are identical to Scenario 813 (Section 7.1 .2), so they are not repeated here.

The output from the MathCAD calculation for this scenario is shown on pages H100 through H106. The maximum basin temperature, Tbmax, is calculated to be 99 .7°F with an initial basin temperature of 82°F . The temperature at 30 minutes is calculated to be 99.7°F with an initial basin temperature of 79°F . This value is below the acceptance limit of 100°F .

'z The single failure considered for all scenarios is the loss of power to Cells E and F.

These values are the current Technical Specifications .

Per Assumption 3 .2, all of the above scenarios were run with an initial basin temperature of 96°F, 90°F, or 80°F, however, this value was reduced for scenarios 813, 8C, 8C1, 8C2,

I CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix H PAGE H16 and 8D so that all of the calculated maximum basin temperatures are below the SX cooling tower basin design temperature of 100°F.

For scenario 8A, the maximum basin temperature occurs prior to 30 minutes, therefore for this scenario (no fans initially OOS, 96°F initial basin temperature), RCFC heat load would not need to be shed at 30 minutes .

In case 8D1 for the first 10.1 minutes with no heat load the basin temperature went from 82°F to 94.5°F which is an increase of 12 .5°F. For all scenarios in this calculation, the inputs for basin mass and heat input are the same, thus the 12 .5°F increase in temperature will be the same for all scenarios were no cooling is assumed during the first 10 minutes . Thus for an assumed initial basin temperature of 77°F the temperature at 10 minutes will be 89 .5°F . In scenario 8C1 (76°F wet bulb, 2 fans OOS on same bus, fans initially on) the calculated temperature at 10 .1 minutes is 89.9°F. The heat removal capability once the fans are started is the same so the results from scenario 8C1 will be bounding for the case where no fans are assumed running for 10 minutes with a starting basin temperature of 77°F.

Limitations In summary, the Byron Technical Specification 3 .7.9 (SR 3.7.9.2) [Ref. 4.5] will have to be changed as follows in order to account for these results .

1) Modify the initial basin temperature of 96°F with seven or more fans running to 91 °F, since scenario 8B is the bounding scenario with one fan OOS .
2) Modify the initial basin temperature of 90°F with less than seven fans running to 84°F, since scenarios 8C and 8C1 are the bounding scenarios with two fans OOS.
3) Modify the initial basin temperature of 80°F with no fans initially running to 77°F, since scenario 8D is the bounding scenarios with two fans OOS.

Also, procedures would have to be changed so that in the situation when two fans are going to be taken OOS for maintenance on the same electrical breaker (Scenario 8C1),

operators would have to check that the wet bulb temperature is 5 76°F.

Results are valid only if half of the RCFC heat load on the accident unit is shed at, or prior to, 30 minutes . Procedures would have to be changed to implement this operator action .

I CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix I PAGE 11 APPENDIX I Validation of 10% Cooling with No Fans Running

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix I PAGE 12 1 .0 PURPOSE The purpose of this Appendix is to validate Assumption 3.1 from Appendix H of this calculation . Assumption 3.1 states that effectively 10% of the water running through passive cooling tower cells will be cooled when the fans for those cells are not operating .

2.0 DESIGN INPUTS 2.1 Design Input 2 .1 from Appendix H of this calculation applies here .

2.2 The design flow is 13,000 gpm per cooling tower cell [Ref. 4.1]

2.3 The initial service water temperature is 98°F [Ref. 4.11 .

2.4 The total heat load to be dissipated for both units is 150 x 106 Btu/hr [Ref. 4 .1] .

2.5 The wet bulb temperature used is 78°F [Ref. 4.11.

2.6 The cooling tower performance curve for this case is based on tower performance data from "design scenario" of BYR97-127, Rev . 1 [Ref. 4 .2].

3.0 ASSUMPTIONS 3.1 (3, estimated as the fraction of load to Tower 1, is assumed to be 0.530, based on the results in Appendix H of this calculation .

3 .2 During testing the actual cooling tower heat removal was found to be less than the vendor predicted performance curves [Ref. 4.3] . Thus the original Ceramic Cooling Tower (CCT) analysis used in Ref. 4.1 is also assumed to over predict tower performance with no fans in operation . Since the MRL model was based on test data or actual performance, a factor must be added to the fraction of flow cooled in the Mathcad model to more accurately compare the CCT report [Ref. 4 .11 to the MRL model.

5.0 IDENTIFICATION OF COMPUTER PROGRAMS The maximum service water temperature was determined by running Mathcad Version 11 .2a, Program Number 03.7.548-11 .2 .

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-009 REVISION NO. 8, Appendix I PAGE 13 6.0 METHOD OF ANALYSIS 6 .1 Design Validation A validation of the cooling effectiveness of passive SX cooling tower cells without fans operating is performed by benchmarking against results of a previous analysis performed by the tower vendor, Ceramic Cooling Tower (CCT) . The CCT analysis [Ref. 4.11 was performed to predict peak SX basin water temperature under certain heat load and wet bulb temperature conditions following a tomado, with a postulated failure of all SX tower fans.

The initial conditions assume a basin temperature of 98°F [Ref. 4 .1]. This scenario assumes no tower cells are out of service (OOS). Initially, the fans on all the cells are not running and all the bypass valves are closed.

The total heat load to be used for this scenario is 150 x 106 Btu/hr [Ref. 4.11.

There is one set of parameters f, Q, M1, B1, M2, B2, a, and R that are needed to determine the basin temperature response .

The Tho, vs Tco , d relationship is illustrated in Figure I-1 .

Based on the TH , Tc values (as determined from the TH values calculated for tower operation in Design Input 2.6), [(144 .26, 104.26), (136 .54, 102.54)1, Mathcad calculates M11, M12 and B11, B12 from the tower performance inputs .

Based on an average flow of 13,000 gpm per cell in T1, the tower performance for T1 is generated using a flow of 13,000 gpm (Figure 1-1). Based on the TH, Tc values (as determined from the TH values calculated for tower operation in Design Input 2.6), [(144 .26, 104 .26), (136.54, 102 .54)], Mathcad calculates M21, M22 and B21, B22 from the tower performance inputs .

a

= Flow to T1 = 52,000 gpm = 0 .500 Total SX flow, Q 104,000 gpm R is estimated as the fraction of load to Tower 1, which is assumed to be 0.530 (see Assumption 3.1) .

Based on the parameters f, Q, M1, B1, M2, B2, a, and R determined above, the coefficients A, B, and C in Eq (3), renamed AVA2, D1/D2, and C1/C2 here, are calculated by Mathcad .

The output from the MathCAD calculation for this scenario is shown on pages 16 through 112. The maximum basin temperature, Tbmax, is calculated to be 113.7°F.

7.0 NUMERICAL ANALYSIS 7.1 Fraction of Flow Factor The CCT report states that the design of the cooling tower has a range of 40°F (138°F-98°F). The cooling tower performance data for "design scenario" from BYR97-127 [Ref.

4.2] shows that, by interpolation, the range is 22.2°F (Range = HWT - CWT = 120 .2°F-98°F) . Therefore, the current tower performance was about 56% (22 .2°F / 40°F) of expected . The Mathcad model performance will be inflated by a factor of 1 .56 to account for this difference . This is done by increasing the flow factors (f11, f12, f21, and f22 originally at 0.1) by 56% which yields 0.156 for the flow factors (fl 1, f12, f21, and f22).

8.0 RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The results for the design validation case show that the maximum basin temperature is 113.7°F. The maximum temperature determined in Ceramic Cooling Tower (CCT)

Engineering Report NCT-683-55 [Ref. 4.1] was 109 .3°F. This shows that greater than 10% cooling was used to calculate the maximum basin temperature with no fans running, and that using 10% cooling is conservative, relative to the CCT report .

The resulting performance of the Tower when sub-jected to these conditions is a predicted value and is not guaranteed Tower Performance .

PROBLEM STATEMENT The problem (as stated in SQL Letter of 11/17/81) is a loss of offsite power as a result of a tornado . In addition, all eight Essential Service Water Cooling Tower Fans are in-operable due to impact of vertical tornado missiles . There-fore, it must be demonstrated that the plant will be shut-down safely following this event .

The postulated shutdown conditions to which the Tower will be subjected are as follows ;

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-011 REVISION NO. 3, Appendix B PAGE 132 B.1 PURPOSE The purpose of this Appendix is to incorporate additional scenarios 10 through 13 for postulated single failures of electrical breakers serving the SX system components occurring concurrent with a LOCH and a LOOP on one unit with the opposite unit in normal shutdown as described in UHS-04 [Ref. B .4.4].

B.2 DESIGN INPUTS B .2.1 All design inputs from the calculation main body section 4.3.1 are valid for this Appendix B calculation .

B.2.2 SX water inventory per tower is equal to the basin volume of 59%, or 40,578 ft3 [Ref.

B.4.10], which is one percent below the Technical Specification minimum value of 60%

[Ref. B.4.5] . The volume of water in the return and supply piping of 34,043 ft3 is then added [Ref. B.4.7] to the basin volume . The volume of silt in the basin (3,312 ft3 per basin per Ref. B.4.6) is subtracted from the SX water inventory used for the calculation so that it is not included as part of the heat sink. The total (for both towers) SX water inventory volume = [(40,578-3,312) ft3 + 34,043 ft3] per tower x 7.48 gal/ft3 x 2 towers =

1 .068 x 106 gallons .

B.2.3 The accident scenarios used in this revision of the calculation are taken from UHS-04

[Ref. 8 .4.3] Attachment B and are consistent with scenarios 10 through 13 in BYR96-259

[Ref. B.4.2] and BYR97-127 [Ref. B .4.1] .

B.2.4 Flows through the two trains of the SX tower for accident scenarios 10 through 13 are taken from BYR96-259 [Ref. B.4.2], Attachment C and BYR97-127 [Ref. B.4.1],

Attachment C and are discussed in more detail in Section B.7.1 .

B.2.5 LOCH unit heat loads are taken from Table 9 of ATD-0063, Rev. 4B [Ref. B.4 .4] . These heat loads take into account the reduced miscellaneous heat load, which includes subtracting 8.13 x 106 Btu/hr for the recycle evaporator package since it was retired in place, and using the sum of the total miscellaneous heat load (90.7 x 106 Btu/hr) rather than the 103 x 106 Btu/hr used previously . These heat loads include non-accident heat loads, accident heat loads, and miscellaneous heat loads.

B.2.6 Cooling tower performance curves for scenarios 10 through 13 are based on tower performance data from scenarios 10 through 13 of BYR97-127 [Ref. B.4.1], Attachment E. Since the MRL model for the Byron UHS Cooling Tower was validated only down to a minimum flow of 6,000 gpm, tower performance data for average flow less than 6,000 gpm are not generated . For scenarios having an average flow less than 6,000 gpm, an average flow rate of 6,000 gpm is used to calculate the performance data. This is conservative since tower performance generally improves with lower flow.

B.2.7 The cooling tower flow rates used in this calculation have 250 gpm subtracted from them, as described in Appendix D of calculation NED-M-MSD-009 [Ref. B.4.9], to account for losses out of the 2-inch drain line per P&ID M-42, Sheet 7 [Ref. B .4.11].

B .3 ASSUMPTIONS B.3.1 All assumptions in the calculation main body section 4 .2 are valid for this Appendix B calculation .

B.3.2 The fraction of water cooled for SX cooling tower cells with fans not running is assumed to be 0 .10 (i.e ., 10% of the water delivered to that cell is effectively cooled) . This is

(CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-011 REVISION NO. 3, Appendix B PAGE B3 I based on input from the cooling tower manufacturer as a reasonable estimate of minimum cooling tower performance without fan air flow [Ref. B.4.8] . Also, shown in NED-M-MSD-09 [Ref. B .4.9], Appendix I, is a Mathcad model verifying that 10% cooling is conservative with no fans running . For scenarios where a tower has at least one active cell, tower performance curves are based on the average flow to the active cells. This approach is justified since the majority of the cooling is provided by the active cells, and the difference in flow between tower cells is small . For Tower B in scenario 13, there are no active cells . In this case, the tower performance curve is based on the average flow to the passive cells .

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-011 REVISION NO. 3, Appendix B PAGE B4 B.6.0 METHOD OF ANALYSIS Appendix B of this calculation will use the ESW cooling tower transient model from Revision 1 of this calculation to calculate the basin temperature response for additional scenarios 10, 11, 12, and 13. Appendix B uses the Mathcad calculations from Appendix A with the changes summarized below:

1) The revised Total Heat Load to the UHS curve from ATD-0063 [Ref. B.4 .4] (Table 9) will be incorporated . The total heat load includes the power uprate heat input. This curve is the summation of the non-accident unit RHR heat load, the accident heat load, and the miscellaneous heat load from both units.
2) New scenarios 10, 11, 12, and 13 are being evaluated for postulated single failures of electrical breakers serving the SX system components occurring concurrent with a LOCH and a LOOP on one unit with the opposite unit in normal shutdown as described in UHS-04 [Ref. B.4.3] .
3) For scenarios 10, 11, 12, and 13 new flow rates and tower performance curves were generated [Ref.'s B.4.2 and B.4.1] and are used as inputs .
4) New scenarios 10, 11, 12, and 13 are modeled in Mathcad to be consistent with the format from the Mathcad models of Appendix G of NED-MSD-009 [Ref. B.4.9] .
5) Partial credit is taken for cooling (10%) in tower cells with water flow but no fan in operation (see Assumption B.3.2). For scenarios where a tower has at least one active cell, tower performance curves are based on the average flow to the active cells. This approach is justified since the majority of the cooling is provided by the active cells, and the difference in flow between tower cells is small . For Tower B in scenario 13, there are no active cells. In this case, the tower performance curve is based on the average flow to the passive cells.

The Byron ESW cooling tower performance is acceptable if the calculated basin temperature is below the SX cooling tower basin design temperature of 100°F B.6.1 Tower Performance Curves The tower performance curves are shown in Figures B-1 through B-8 for each scenario.

Each tower performance curve is based on a 70°F wet bulb temperature . These figures plot THot vs Tcold for each tower performance curve for each cooling tower as provided by BYR97-127 [Ref. B.4 .1]. For each scenario, two points were selected from the applicable tower performance curve to provide a linear approximation of tower performance over the range of THot and Tco,d temperatures expected for that scenario . The selected points are checked against final results to confirm their applicability to the actual temperature range.

These points are listed as Th1, Th2, Th3, Th4, Tc1, Tc2, Tc3, and Tc4 in the Mathcad models.

B.7 .0 NUMERICAL ANALYSIS B.7.1 Flow Rate Analvsis As discussed in BYR96-259 [Ref. B.4.2] and BYR97-127 [Ref. B .4.1], leakage is taken into account when determining the average flow rates. Also, in order to account for 10%

cooling for passive fans (see Assumption B.3.2), the flow rate for that cell is multiplied by 0.1 after leakage is taken into account as shown in the tables below.

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-011 REVISION NO. 3, Appendix B PAGE B5 To calculate the flow through the operating cells 250 gpm is subtracted from each open riser to account for the flow in the open 2" riser leak-off line (see Design Input B.2 .7) .

8 .7.1 .1 Accident Scenario 10 The single failure considered for Scenario 10 is the loss of power to Cells E and F bypass basin valve OSX162B and Cells E and F cooling tower fans.

The initial conditions assume a basin temperature of 74°F with one SX pump running on each unit. This scenario assumes two tower cells (A and G) are out of service (OOS).

Initially, the fans on all the other cells are not running, all the bypass valves are open, and all the riser valves are closed. Operator actions are required in the control room to turn on the cooling fans and close the bypass valves within 10 minutes following safeguard signals .

Bypass valve OSX162B is assumed to fail to close upon operator actions in the control room (failed bypass valve) . This requires manual closing of the bypass valve which is assumed to take 30 minutes after the safeguard signals .

The total heat load to be used for this scenario is the "Total Heat Load to the UHS" shown in Table 9 of ATD-0063, Rev . 4B (Ref. 8.4.4) .

Since the UHS tower flows are different between the time period before and after the failed bypass valve is closed, two sets of parameters f, Q, M1, B1, M2, B2, a, and R are needed to determine the basin temperature response . The first set is used to calculate the basin temperature for the condition with the failed bypass valve remaining open . The second set is used for the condition with the failed bypass valve closed.

For the time period from 10 - 30 minutes after the accident (with operable cooling tower fans at high speed, and the failed bypass valve remains open) :

The UHS tower flows, based on Scenario 10 (10-30 min) are shown in Design Input B.2 .4 . The Thot vs TwId relationship is illustrated in Figure B-1 .

> 30 minutes by Mathcad .

For this scenario, the basin temperature evaluation is performed in 3 steps : namely, 0-10 minutes, > 10 minutes to 30 minutes, and > 30 minutes .

For the initial 10 minutes, since there is no heat removal by the cooling towers, the basin temperature is calculated using Eq (2) . The initial basin temperature, Tbo, is assumed to be 74°F.

For time > 10 minutes to 30 minutes, operator actions are taken to turn on the cooling fans and close the bypass valves, However, only partial cooling is available due to one bypass valve failing to close. Eq (1) is then used to calculate the basin temperature . The coefficients A1, D1, and C1, are used for this time period .

For time > 30 minutes, full cooling becomes available when operator actions are taken to manually close the failed bypass valve . Eq (1) is also used to calculate the basin temperature, utilizing the coefficients A2, D2, and C2.

The output from the MathCAD calculation for this scenario is shown on pages B27 through B33 . The maximum basin temperature, Tbmax , is calculated only to be 98 .4°F.

The temperature at 30 minutes is calculated to be 96.6°F. Both of these values are below the acceptance limit of 100°F.

B.7.1 .2 Accident Scenario 11 The single failure considered for Scenario 11 is the loss of power to Cells E and F bypass basin valve OSX162B and Cells E and F cooling tower fans.

The initial conditions assume a basin temperature of 74°F with one SX pump running on each unit. This scenario assumes two tower cells (A and G) are out of service (OOS) .

Initially, the fans on all the other cells are not running, one bypass valve (OSX162B) is open, and only riser valves to cells A and G are closed. Operator actions are required in the control room to turn on the cooling fans and close the bypass valve within 10 minutes following safeguard signals .

Bypass valve OSX162B is assumed to fail to close upon operator actions in the control room (failed bypass valve) . This requires manual closing of the bypass valve which is assumed to take 30 minutes after the safeguard signals .

The total heat load to be used for this scenario is the "Total Heat Load to the UHS" shown in Table 9 of ATD-0063, Rev . 413 [Ref. B .4.4j .

Since the UHS tower flows are different between the time period before and after the failed bypass valve is closed, two sets of parameters f, Q, M1, B1, M2, B2, a, and R are needed to determine the basin temperature response .

> 30 minutes by Mathcad .

For this scenario, the basin temperature evaluation is performed in 3 steps : namely, 0-10 minutes, > 10 minutes to 30 minutes, and > 30 minutes .

For the initial 10 minutes, since there is no heat removal by the cooling towers, the basin temperature is calculated using Eq (2) . The initial basin temperature, Tbo, is assumed to be 74°F.

For time > 10 minutes to 30 minutes, operator actions are taken to turn on the cooling fans and close the bypass valves, However, only partial cooling is available due to one bypass valve failing to close . Eq (1) is then used to calculate the basin temperature . The coefficients A1, D1, and C1, are used for this time period .

For time > 30 minutes, full cooling becomes available when operator actions are taken to manually close the failed bypass valve . Eq (1) is also used to calculate the basin temperature, utilizing the coefficients A2, D2, and C2.

The output from the MathCAD calculation for this scenario is shown on pages B34 through B40 . The maximum basin temperature, Tb,,a,, is calculated only to be 98.6°F.

The temperature at 30 minutes is calculated to be 98.0°F. Both of these values are below the acceptance limit of 100°F.

B.7.1 .3 Accident Scenario 12 This scenario is the same setup as Scenario 11 with the exception that cells A and B are postulated to be OOS as opposed to cells A and G.

The single failure considered for Scenario 12 is the loss of power to Cells E and F bypass basin valve OSX162B and Cells E and F cooling tower fans.

The initial conditions assume a basin temperature of 74°F with one SX pump running on each unit. This scenario assumes two tower cells (A and B) are out of service (OOS).

Initially, the fans on all the other cells are not running, one bypass valve (OSX162B) is open, and only riser valves to cells A and B are closed. Operator actions are required in the control room to turn on the cooling fans and close the bypass valve within 10 minutes following safeguard signals .

Bypass valve OSX162B is assumed to fail to close upon operator actions in the control room (failed bypass valve) . This requires manual closing of the bypass valve which is assumed to take 30 minutes after the safeguard signals .

The total heat load to be used for this scenario is the "Total Heat Load to the UHS" shown in Table 9 of ATD-0063, Rev . 413 [Ref. B.4.4] .

CALCULATION NO. NED-M-MSD-011 REVISION NO. 3, Appendix B PAGE B12 Since the UHS tower flows are different between the time period before and after the failed bypass valve is closed, two sets of parameters f, Q, M1, B1, M2, 82, a, and R are needed to determine the basin temperature response . The first set is used to calculate the basin temperature for the condition with the failed bypass valve remaining open. The second set is used for the condition with the failed bypass valve closed .

B.4.3]

remain below 100°F.

Per the Table 8.1 above, Scenarios 10 through 13 meet the acceptance criteria of the basin temperature being less than 100°F . Scenario 12 is the bounding scenario in terms of maximum basin temperature . Scenarios 10 through 13 account for valve leakby and power uprate heat load.

The overall conclusions made in NED-M-MSD-011, Revision 2 continue to be valid. It can be concluded that at an initial basin temperature of 74°F and an initial basin volume of 59% (or 40,578 ft3 per basin volume ; 3,312 ft3 of silt is subtracted from this volume for the calculation), the basin temperature under various design basis accident scenarios remains below the acceptance criteria value of 100°F.

Limitation This conclusion is based on the assumption that the failed open bypass valve can be closed in 30 minutes after the safeguards signals .
