PPL Rev. 3 Jet Pumps B 3.4.2 B 3.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM (RCS)
B 3.4.2 Jet Pumps BASES BACKGROUND The Reactor Coolant Recirculation System is described in the Background section of the Bases for LCO 3.4.1, "Recirculation Loops Operating,"
which discusses the operating characteristics of the system and how these characteristics affect the Design Basis Accident (DBA) analyses.
The jet pumps are part of the Reactor Coolant Recirculation System and are designed to provide forced circulation through the core to remove heat from the fuel. The jet pumps are located in the annular region between the core shroud and the vessel inner wall. Because the jet pump suction elevation is at two-thirds core height, the vessel can be reflooded and coolant level maintained at two-thirds core height even with the complete break of the recirculation loop pipe that is located below the jet pump suction elevation.
Each reactor coolant recirculation loop contains ten jet pumps.
Recirculated coolant passes down the annulus between the reactor vessel wall and the core shroud. A portion of the coolant flows from the vessel, through the two external recirculation loops, and becomes the driving flow for the jet pumps. Each of the two external recirculation loops discharges high pressure flow into an external manifold from which individual recirculation inlet lines are routed to the jet pump risers within the reactor vessel. The remaining portion of the coolant mixture in the annulus becomes the suction flow for the jet pumps. This flow enters the jet pump at suction inlets and is accelerated by the drive flow. The drive flow and suction flow are mixed in the jet pump throat section. The total flow then passes through the jet pump diffuser section into the area below the core (lower plenum), gaining sufficient head in the process to drive the required flow upward through the core.
TRM Section 3.4.6 provides discussion of single loop operation flow rate requirements to address jet pump structural concerns during this mode of operation.
APPLICABLE Jet pump OPERABILITY is an explicit assumption in the design basis loss SAFETY of coolant accident (LOCA) analysis evaluated in Reference 1.
ANALYSES (continued)
SUSQUEHANNA - UNIT 2 TS / B 3.4-10 Revision 1
PPL Rev. 3 Jet Pumps B 3.4.2 BASES APPLICABLE The capability of reflooding the core to two-thirds core height is dependent SAFETY upon the structural integrity of the jet pumps. If the structural system, ANALYSES including the beam holding a jet pump in place, fails, jet pump (continued) displacement and performance degradation could occur, resulting in an increased flow area through the jet pump and a lower core flooding elevation. This could adversely affect the water level in the core during the reflood phase of a LOCA as well as the assumed blowdown flow during a LOCA.
Jet pumps satisfy Criterion 2 of the NRC Policy Statement (Ref. 4).
LCO The structural failure of any of the jet pumps could cause significant degradation in the ability of the jet pumps to allow reflooding to two-thirds core height during a LOCA. OPERABILITY of all jet pumps is required to ensure that operation of the Reactor Coolant Recirculation System will be consistent with the assumptions used in the licensing basis analysis (Ref. 1).
APPLICABILITY In MODES 1 and 2, the jet pumps are required to be OPERABLE since there is a large amount of energy in the reactor core and since the limiting DBAs are assumed to occur in these MODES. This is consistent with the requirements for operation of the Reactor Coolant Recirculation System (LCO 3.4.1).
In MODES 3, 4, and 5, the Reactor Coolant Recirculation System is not required to be in operation, and when not in operation, sufficient flow is not available to evaluate jet pump OPERABILITY.
ACTIONS A.1 An inoperable jet pump can increase the blowdown area and reduce the capability of reflooding during a design basis LOCA. If one or more of the jet pumps are inoperable, the (continued)

PPL Rev. 3 Jet Pumps B 3.4.2 BASES ACTIONS A.1 (continued) plant must be brought to a MODE in which the LCO does not apply. To achieve this status, the plant must be brought to MODE 3 within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />.
The Completion Time of 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> is reasonable, based on operating experience, to reach MODE 3 from full power conditions in an orderly manner and without challenging plant systems.
SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS This SR is designed to detect significant degradation in jet pump performance that precedes jet pump failure (Ref. 2). This SR is required to be performed only when the loop has forced recirculation flow since surveillance checks and measurements can only be performed during jet pump operation. With no forced recirculation flow, stresses on jet pump assemblies are significantly reduced. The jet pump failure of concern is a complete mixer displacement due to jet pump beam failure. Jet pump plugging is also of concern since it adds flow resistance to the recirculation loop. Significant degradation is indicated if the specified criteria confirm unacceptable deviations from established patterns or relationships. The allowable deviations from the established patterns have been developed based on the variations experienced at plants during normal operation and with jet pump assembly failures (Refs. 2 and 3). Each recirculation loop must satisfy two of the performance criteria provided. Since refueling activities (fuel assembly replacement or shuffle, as well as any modifications to fuel support orifice size or core plate bypass flow) can affect the relationship between core flow, jet pump flow, and recirculation loop flow, these relationships may need to be re-established each cycle. Similarly, initial entry into extended single loop operation may also require establishment of these relationships. During the initial weeks of operation under such conditions, while base-lining new "established patterns," engineering judgment of the daily surveillance results is used to detect significant abnormalities, which could indicate a jet pump failure.

REQUIREMENTS drive flow versus pump speed) are determined by the flow resistance from the loop suction through the jet pump nozzles. A change in the relationship indicates a plug, flow restriction, loss in pump hydraulic performance, leakage, or new flow path between the recirculation pump discharge and jet pump nozzle. For this criterion, loop drive flow versus pump speed relationship must be verified. Note that recirculation pump speed is directly proportional to recirculation motor generator speed (Reference 5). Therefore, recirculation motor generator speed can be used for the purposes of this surveillance.
Individual jet pumps in a recirculation loop normally do not have the same flow. The unequal flow is due to the drive flow manifold, which does not distribute flow -equally to all risers. The flow (or jet pump diffuser to lower plenum differential pressure) pattern or relationship of one jet pump to the loop average is repeatable. An appreciable change in this relationship is an indication that increased (or reduced) resistance has occurred in one of the jet pumps. This may be indicated by an increase in the, relative flow for a jet pump that has experienced beam cracks.
The deviations from normal are considered indicative of a potential problem in the recirculation drive flow or jet pump system (Ref. 2). Normal flow ranges and established jet pump flow and differential pressure patterns are established by plotting historical data as discussed in Reference 2.

PPL Rev. 4 Diesel Fuel Oil, Lube Oil, and Starting Air B 3.8.3 B 3.8 ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEMS B 3.8.3 Diesel Fuel Oil, Lube Oil, and Starting Air BASES BACKGROUND Each diesel generator (DG) is provided with a storage tank having a fuel oil capacity sufficient to operate that DG for a period of 7 days while the DG is supplying its continuous rated capacity as discussed in FSAR, Section 9.5.4 (Ref. 1). The maximum load demand is calculated using the assumption that at least three DGs are available.
This on-site fuel oil storage tank (FOST) capacity is sufficient to operate the DGs for longer than the time to replenish the onsite supply from outside sources.
Fuel oil is transferred from storage tank to day tank by a transfer pump associated with each storage tank. Independent pumps and piping preclude the failure of one pump, or the rupture of any pipe, valve, or tank to result in the loss of more than one DG. All outside tanks, pumps, and piping are located underground.
For proper operation of the standby DGs, it is necessary to ensure the proper quality of the fuel oil. Regulatory Guide 1.137 (Ref. 2) addresses the recommended fuel oil practices as supplemented by ANSI N195 (Ref. 3). The fuel oil properties governed by these SRs are the water and sediment content, the kinematic viscosity, specific gravity (or API gravity) and impurity level.
The DG lubrication system is designed to provide sufficient lubrication to permit proper operation of its associated DG under all loading conditions. The system is required to circulate the lube oil to the diesel engine working surfaces and to remove excess heat generated by friction during operation. Each engine oil sump contains an inventory capable of supporting a minimum of 7 days of operation. This supply is sufficient to allow the operator to replenish lube oil from outside sources.
Each DG has an air start system with two air receivers (DG E has four air receivers) and each DG air start system provides adequate capacity for five successive start cycles on the DG without recharging the air start receivers. Each bank of two air receivers for DG E has adequate capacity for a minimum of five successive start cycles.

APPLICABLE The initial conditions of Design Basis Accident (DBA) and transient SAFETY ANALYSES analyses in FSAR, Chapter 6 (Ref. 4), and Chapter 15 (Ref. 5), assume Engineered Safety Feature (ESF) systems are OPERABLE. The DGs are designed to provide sufficient capacity, capability, redundancy, and reliability to ensure the availability of necessary power to ESF systems so that fuel, Reactor Coolant System, and containment design limits are not exceeded. These limits are discussed in more detail in the Bases for Section 3.2, Power Distribution Limits; Section 3.4, Reactor Coolant System (RCS); and Section 3.6, Containment Systems.
Since diesel fuel oil, lube oil, and starting air subsystem support the operation of the standby AC power sources, they satisfy Criterion 3 of the NRC Policy Statement (Ref. 6).
LCO Stored diesel fuel oil is required to have sufficient supply for 7 days of full load operation. It is also required to meet specific standards for quality.
Additionally, sufficient lube oil supply must be available to ensure the capability to operate at full load for 7 days. This requirement, in conjunction with an ability to obtain replacement supplies within 7 days, supports the availability of DGs required to shut down the reactor and to maintain it in a safe condition for an anticipated operational occurrence (AOO) or a postulated DBA with loss of offsite power. DG day tank fuel oil requirements, as well as transfer capability from the storage tank to the day tank, are addressed in LCO 3.8.1, "AC Sources-Operating," and LCO 3.8.2, "AC Sources-Shutdown."
The starting air system is required to have a minimum capacity for five successive DG start attempts without recharging the air start receivers.
APPLICABILITY The AC sources (LCO 3.8.1 and LCO 3.8.2) are required to ensure the availability of the required power to shut down the reactor and maintain it in a safe shutdown condition after an AOO or a postulated DBA.
Because stored diesel fuel oil, lube oil, and starting air subsystem support LCO 3.8.1 and LCO 3.8.2, stored diesel fuel oil, lube oil, (continued)

ACTIONS The ACTIONS Table is modified by a Note indicating that separate Condition entry is allowed for each DG. This is acceptable, since the Required Actions for each Condition provide appropriate compensatory actions for each inoperable DG subsystem. Complying with the Required Actions for one inoperable DG subsystem may allow for continued operation, and subsequent inoperable DG subsystem(s) governed by separate Condition entry and application of associated Required Actions.
A.1 In this Condition, the 7 day fuel oil supply for a DG is not available.
However, the Condition is restricted to fuel oil level reductions that maintain at least a 6 day supply. These circumstances may be caused by events such as:
- a. Full load operation required for an inadvertent start while at minimum required level; or
- b. Feed and bleed operations that may be necessitated by increasing particulate levels or any number of other oil quality degradations.
This restriction allows sufficient time for obtaining the requisite replacement volume and performing the analyses required prior to addition of the fuel oil to the tank. A period of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is considered sufficient to complete restoration of the required level prior to declaring the DG inoperable. This period is acceptable based on the remaining capacity (> 6 days), the fact that action will be initiated to obtain replenishment, the availability of fuel oil in the storage tank of the fifth diesel generator that is not required to be.OPERABLE, and the low probability of an event during this brief period.

PPL Rev. 4 Diesel Fuel Oil, Lube Oil, and Starting Air B 3.8.3 BASES ACTIONS B.1 (continued)
With lube oil sump level not visible in the sight glass, sufficient lube oil to support 7 days of continuous DG operation at full load conditions may not be available. Therefore, the DG is declared inoperable immediately.
C.1 This Condition is entered as a result of a failure to meet the acceptance criterion for particulates. Normally, trending of particulate levels allows sufficient time to correct high particulate levels prior to reaching the limit of acceptability. Poor sample procedures (bottom sampling), contaminated sampling equipment, and errors in laboratory analysis can produce failures that do not follow a trend. Since the presence of particulates does not mean failure of the fuel oil to bum properly in the diesel engine, since particulate concentration is unlikely to change significantly between Surveillance Frequency intervals, and since proper engine performance has been recently demonstrated (within 31 days), it is prudent to allow a brief period prior to declaring the associated DG inoperable. The 7 day Completion Time allows for further evaluation, resampling, and re-analysis of the DG fuel oil.
D.1 With the new fuel oil properties defined in the Bases for SR 3.8.3.3 not within the required limits, a period of 30 days is allowed for restoring the stored fuel oil properties. This period provides sufficient time to test the stored fuel oil to determine that the new fuel oil, when mixed with previously stored fuel oil, remains acceptable, or to restore the stored fuel oil properties. This restoration may involve feed and bleed procedures, filtering, or combination of these procedures. Even ifa DG start and load was required during this time interval and the fuel oil properties were outside limits, there is high likelihood that the DG would still be capable of performing its intended function.

PPL Rev. 4 Diesel Fuel Oil, Lube Oil, and Starting Air B 3.8.3 BASES ACTIONS E. 1 (continued)
With starting air receiver pressure < 240 psig in one or more air receivers, sufficient capacity for five successive DG start attempts can not be provided by the air start system. However, as long as all receiver pressures are > 180 psig, there is adequate capacity for at least one start attempt, and the DG can be considered OPERABLE while the air receiver pressure is restored to the required limit. A period of 48 hours5.555556e-4 days <br />0.0133 hours <br />7.936508e-5 weeks <br />1.8264e-5 months <br /> is considered sufficient to complete restoration to the required pressure prior to declaring the DG inoperable. This period is acceptable based on the remaining air start capacity, the fact that most DG starts are accomplished on the first attempt, and the low probability of an event during this brief period. Entry into Condition E is not required when air receiver pressure is less than required limits following a successful start while the DG is operating.
F. 1 With a Required Action and associated Completion Time of A through E not met, or the stored diesel fuel oil, lube oil, or starting air not within SR limits for reasons other than addressed by Conditions A, B, C, D or E, the associated DG may be incapable of performing its intended function and must be immediately declared inoperable.
SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.3.1 REQUIREMENTS This SR provides verification that there is an adequate inventory of fuel oil in the storage tanks to support each DG's operation for 7 days at continuous rated capacity which is greater than the maximum post LOCA load demand. The 7 day period is sufficient time to place the unit in a safe shutdown condition and to bring in replenishment fuel from an offsite location.
The 31 day Frequency is adequate to ensure that a sufficient supply of fuel oil is available, since low level alarms are provided and unit operators would be aware of any large uses of fuel oil during this period.

PPL Rev. 4 Diesel Fuel Oil, Lube Oil, and Starting Air B 3.8.3 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.3.2 REQUIREMENTS (continued) This Surveillance ensures that sufficient lubricating oil inventory is available to support at least 7 days of full load operation for each DG. The sump level requirement is based on the DG manufacturer's consumption values. The acceptance criteria of maintaining a visible level in the sight glass ensures adequate inventory for 7 days of full load operation without the level reaching the manufacturer's recommended minimum level.
A 31 day Frequency is adequate to ensure that a sufficient lube oil supply is onsite, since DG starts and run time are closely monitored by the plant staff.
SR 3.8.3.3 The tests listed below are a means of determining whether new fuel oil is of the appropriate grade and has not been contaminated with substances that would have an immediate detrimental impact on diesel engine combustion. If results from these tests are within acceptable limits, the fuel oil may be added to the storage. tanks without concern for contaminating the entire volume of fuel oil in the storage tanks. These tests are to be conducted prior to adding the new fuel to the storage tank(s), but in no case is the time between receipt of new fuel and conducting the tests to exceed 31 days. The tests, limits, and applicable ASTM Standards are as follows:
- a. Sample the new fuel oil following the guidelines of ASTM D4057 (Ref. 7);
- b. Verify, following the guidelines of the tests specified in ASTM D975 (Ref. 7), that the sample has:
- a Density at 150C of _> 0.835 kg/L and < 0.876 kg/L or an API Gravity of _> 30 and *<38
- a Kinematic Viscosity at 400 C of > 1.9 centistokes and
- 4.1 centistokes
- A Flash Point of > 520C (continued)

REQUIREMENTS C. Verify that the new fuel oil has a clear and bright appearance when tested following the guidelines of ASTM D4176 procedure (Ref. 7),.
or has
- 0.05% (vol) water and sediment when tested following the guidelines of ASTM D1796 (Ref. 7). Note that if dye is used in the diesel fuel oil, the water and sediment test must be performed.
Failure to meet any of the limits for key properties of new fuel oil prior to addition to the storage tank is cause for rejecting the new fuel oil, but does not represent a failure to meet the LCO concern since the fuel oil is not added to the storage tanks.
Within 31 days following the initial new fuel oil sample, the fuel oil is analyzed to establish that the other properties specified in Specification 5.5.9 and Reference 7 are met for new fuel oil when tested following the guidelines of ASTM D975 (Ref. 7). The 31 day period is acceptable because the fuel oil properties of interest, even ifthey were not within stated limits, would not have an immediate effect on DG operation. This Surveillance ensures the availability of high quality fuel oil for the DGs.
Fuel oil degradation during long term storage shows up as an increase in particulate, mostly due to oxidation. The presence of particulate does not mean that the fuel oil will not bum 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 following the guidelines of ASTM D2276 (Ref. 7), appropriately modified to increase the range to
> 10 mg/I. This method involves a gravimetric determination of total particulate concentration in the fuel oil. This limit is 10 mg/l. It is acceptable to obtain a field sample for subsequent laboratory testing.in lieu of field testing. The Frequency of this test takes into consideration fuel oil degradation trends that indicate that particulate concentration is unlikely to change significantly between Frequency intervals.
SR 3.8.3.4 This Surveillance ensures that, without the aid of the refill compressor, sufficient air start capacity for each DG is available. The system design requirements provide for a minimum of five engine start cycles without recharging.

PPL Rev. 4 Diesel Fuel Oil, Lube Oil, and Starting Air B 3.8.3 BASES SURVEILLANCE SR 3.8.3.4 (continued)
REQUIREMENTS The pressure specified in this SR is intended to reflect the lowest value at which the five starts can be accomplished. The air starting system capacity for each start cycle is calculated based on the following:
- 1. each cranking cycle duration should be approximately three seconds, or
- 2. consist of two to three engine revolutions, or
- 3. air start requirements per engine start provided by the engine manufacturer, whichever air start requirement is larger.
This Surveillance is modified by a Note, which does not require the SR to be met when the associated DG is running. This is acceptable because once the DG is started the safety function of the air start system is performed.
The 31 day Frequency takes into account the capacity, capability, redundancy, and diversity of the AC sources and other indications available in the control room, including alarms, to alert the operator to below normal air start pressure.
SR 3.8.3.5 Microbiological fouling is a major cause of fuel oil degradation. There are numerous bacteria that can grow in fuel oil and cause fouling, but all must have a water environment in order to survive. Removal of water from the fuel storage tanks once every 31 days eliminates the necessary environment for bacterial survival. This is the most effective means of controlling microbiological fouling. In addition, it eliminates the potential for water entrainment in the fuel oil during DG operation.
Water may come from any of several sources, including condensation, ground water, rain water, contaminated fuel oil, and from breakdown of the fuel oil by bacteria. Frequent checking for and removal of accumulated water minimizes fouling and (continued)

This SR is for preventive maintenance. The presence of water does not necessarily represent failure of this SR, provided the accumulated water is removed during performance of the Surveillance.
