PVNGS Technical Requirements Manual (TRM)

Revision 61 Replacement Pages and Insertion Instructions The following LDCR was included in this change:

LDCR 12-R004 modified the TRM to reflect an update to the Reactor Coolant System Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR - TRM Appendix TA) to accommodate an additional 20 years of plant operation provided by NRC issuance of the renewed operating licenses. Specifically, each reference to 32 Effective Full Power Years (EFPY) were updated to 54 EFPY throughout TRM Appendix TA. In addition, Tables TA2-1, TA2-3 and TA2-4, and Figures TA2-1 and TA2-2 have been updated.

TRM Appendix TA PTLR TA1.0 Reactor Coolant System Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR)

This Pressure and Temperature Limits Report (PTLR) has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification (TS) 5.6.9. The following TSs are addressed in this report:

TS 3.4.3, RCS Pressure and Temperature Limits; TS 3.4.6, RCS Loops - Mode 4; TS 3.4.7, RCS Loops - Mode 5, Loops Filled; TS 3.4.11, Pressurizer Safety Valves - Mode 4; and TS 3.4.13, Low Temperature Overpressure Protection System.

TA2.0 Operating Limits Parametric limits for the above LCOs were developed using NRC-approved methods specified in Technical Specification 5.6.9 (Ref. 1). Application of the methodology approved for developing P/T limits, i.e., report CE NPSD-683-A (Ref. 2), to the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station is detailed in WCAP-16835 (Ref. 3).

The initial PTLR was submitted to the NRC along with the Technical Specification (TS) amendment request to relocate P/T limits to the PTLR (Ref. 4). The NRC approved the relocation of the P/T limits from TS to the PTLR in amendment no. 178 (Ref. 5). Subsequent changes to the PTLR are controlled in accordance with TS 5.6.9b and 10 CFR 50.59, and the PTLR shall be provided to the NRC upon issuance for each reactor vessel fluence period and for any revision or supplement thereto as required by TS 5.6.9c.

The pressure-temperature limit curves comply with Appendix G to 10 CFR Part 50 requirements that the temperature of the closure head flange and vessel flange regions must be at least 120°F higher than the limiting RTNDT for these regions. This RTNDT limit applies during normal operation, including heatup and cooldown, when the core is not critical and the vessel pressure exceeds 625 psia, (20% of the pre-service hydrostatic test pressure of 3125 psia).

Refer to the Technical Specifications for LCOs and surveillance requirements applicable to RCS pressure and temperature limits. Core Critical pressure-temperature limits, as developed in WCAP-16835 (Ref. 3), are not included in the operating limits of Tables TA2-3 and TA2-4 since these values are not limiting. Core criticality is not permissible at cold leg temperature values (continued)

Palo Verde Units 1, 2, 3 TA-1 Rev 61 08/20/14

TRM Appendix TA PTLR TA2.0 Operating Limits (continued) less than 545°F [Technical Specification LCO 3.4.2]. Specific TS LCO limits relocated from the Technical Specifications into this PTLR are given below.

TA2.1 RCS Pressure and Temperature Limits (LCO 3.4.3)

RCS heatup and cooldown rates for Units 1, 2 and 3 through 54 EFPY (60 years) shall be equal to or less than the values shown in Table TA2-1. Limiting RCS temperature requirements through 54 EFPY (60 years) are specified in Table TA2-2. The RCS pressure and temperature for vessel head boltup, inservice hydrostatic and leak testing through 54 EFPY (60 years) shall be limited as specified on Figure TA2-1 (or Table TA2-3) for RCS heatup, and Figure TA2-2 (or Table TA2-4) for RCS cooldown. A gradual change in reactor coolant system temperature of +/-10ºF in any 1-hour period is the maximum permitted during inservice hydrostatic and leak testing.

TA2.2 RCS Loops - Mode 4 (LCO 3.4.6)

The LTOP enable temperature for RCS heatup and cooldown through 54 EFPY (60 years) is 221°F as specified in Table TA2-2.

TRM Appendix TA PTLR TA3.0 Neutron Fluence The design value of peak fast neutron fluence through 54 EFPY (60 years) for determining the limiting reactor vessel beltline material adjusted reference temperature is 3.29E+19 n/cm2 (E > 1.0 MeV) and corresponds to the fluence at the vessel clad-to-base metal interface. For conservatism, this peak fluence is assumed to apply to each of the PVNGS reactor vessel beltline plates and welds; i.e., no reduction factor is applied to account for axial or azimuthal variations from the peak value.

A summary of fast neutron fluence and fluence factors through 54 EFPY (60 years) determined at the 1/4T and 3/4T locations in the vessel wall is given in Table TA3-1. These fluence values are used to calculate the adjusted reference temperature at PVNGS Units 1, 2 and 3.

The surveillance capsule withdrawal schedules are presented in UFSAR Tables 5.3-13 through 5.3-19A. Test results and analyses of withdrawn surveillance specimens were reported in References 6, 7, and 8.

TA5.0 Adjusted Reference Temperature A summary of limiting adjusted reference temperatures associated with PVNGS beltline materials at the 1/4T and 3/4T locations along with RTPTS values through 54 EFPY (60 years) is given in Table TA5-1. Conservatively, the most limiting (highest) adjusted reference temperature value from the three PVNGS (continued)

TRM Appendix TA PTLR units is applied to all three units. Chemistry factors and adjusted reference temperatures for PVNGS are determined in accordance with Regulatory Guide 1.99 (Ref. 9).

Seven reactor vessel surveillance capsules have been removed from PVNGS Units 1, 2 and 3 through December 2007, with a minimum of two credible data sets available for each PVNGS unit. Even though WCAP-16835 shows that the post-irradiation surveillance capsule test results for PVNGS units are credible, the calculation of ART takes no credit for those credible results.

TA6.0 Application of Reactor Vessel Surveillance Data TA6.1 Applicability to Adjusted Reference Temperature Data from the reactor vessel surveillance program or from other supplemental sources were not used to determine the adjusted reference temperature (ART) values for the PVNGS beltline materials described in Section 5. The surveillance program data from each of the three Palo Verde units were evaluated for credibility; chemistry factors were also derived for those surveillance materials. (This assessment is further detailed in Report WCAP-16835 [Ref. 3].)

Chemistry factors determined following Position 1.1 of Regulatory Guide 1.99 are shown to be conservative relative to those derived from surveillance plate and weld measurements for each of the PVNGS units. Therefore, no credit is taken for those credible results in the calculation of ART.
