Subsequently, the following alarms are received on Panel 25-32:

  • SUPPR CHAMBER WATER LEVEL ABNORMAL The Operator at Panel 25-32 notes the following indications associated with the alarms received:
  • Both EECW North and South Header flow readings are 0 gpm.
  • Supp Chamber water level indicates (-) 12 inches and slowly lowering.

Which annunciator response should take precedence over the other and why?

A. EECW FLOW LOW; The RHR Room Coolers will not be able to support running the RHR Pump for extended periods of time.

B. EECW FLOW LOW; The Diesels are running without cooling water and a pump must be started to supply cooling to the Diesels.

C. SUPPR CHAMBER WATER LEVEL ABNORMAL; RPV Emergency Depressurization is required when Pressure Suppression Pressure is exceeded.

D. SUPPR CHAMBER WATER LEVEL ABNORMAL; Vortex Level restrictions to the RHR pumps will prevent the running of RHR in Torus Cooling.

Answer: B

Level: RO SRO Tier# 1 Group # I Examination Outline Cross-Reference KIA# 295016 G2.4.45 Importance Rating 4.1 295016 Control Room Abandonment. G2.4.45 Ability to prioritizei interpret the significance of each annunciator or alarm.

Explanation: CORRECT B: With low flow on the North EECW Header, the diesels that are started when the operators leave the control room will be running without cooling water. Diesel Generator operation without EECW cooling water will cause DG failure. EECW FLOW LOW Alarm is more important than the Suppression Pool Level alarm at (-) 12 inches.

A Incorrect EECW FLOW LOW is correct however the cooling for the Diesels is the reason for prioritizing it over Torus Water Level. Cooling for the RHR Rooms is a concern however restoring cooling to the RHR rooms is not as time critical.

C Incorrect SUPPR CHAMBER WATER LEVEL ABNORMAL; If torus level continues to lower an Emergency Depressurization would be required when PSP curve is exceeded however with suppression pooi level at (-)12 inches and lowering slowly restoring cooling to the Diesels is more time critical.

D - Incorrect - SUPPR CHAMBER WATER LEVEL ABNORMAL; Vortex Limit of 10 feet in the Torus will prevent the running of RHR in Torus Cooling. In AOl- 100-2 Torus cooling provides the heat sink for cool down and removal of decay heat however, restoring cooling to the Diesels is more time critical.

Reactor core isolation system: Plant-Specific Explanation: Answer A is Correct - With the transient of a high Reactor Water Level trip of the RCIC system the FCV-71-8 Steam Supply Valve goes closed and will remain closed until a low level setpoint ((-)

45 inches) is reached causing it to reopen and reinject without operator actions, unless the operator wants to reinject before the (-) 45 inch setpoint is reached. Then all that is required to do is to reopen the FCV-71-8 valve admitting steam to the turbine.

B. Depress the RC1C Turbine Trip Reset Pushbutton only is incorrect because the Trip and Throttle Valve FCV-71-9 does not get a trip signal on a high reactor water level. It is plausible because all other trips do close the FCV-71-9 valve.

C. Depress the RCIC Turbine Trip Reset Pushbutton and reopen the RCIC Turbine Trip and Throttle Valve (2-FCV-71-9) is incorrect because the Trip and Throttle Valve FCV-71-9 does not get a trip signal on a high reactor water level. It is plausible because all other trips do close the FCV-71-9 valve and that the turbine trip reset would also have to be reset before it would reopen which is the normal trip response for all trips except the high level trip.

D. Depress the RCIC High Reactor Water Level Trip Reset Pushbutton and reopen the Steam Supply Valve (FCV-7 1-8) is incorrect because RCIC does not have a High Reactor Water Level Trip reset pushbutton, like HPCI has. Plausible because the systems are so similar in all other aspects however different in that the high level trip does not seal in on RCIC.

K/A# 215003 Kl.02 Importance Rating 3.6 Knowledge of the physical connections and/or cause effect relationships between (IRM) SYSTEM and the following: Reactor manual control Explanation: Answer C: Both IRM A and IRM B will produce a Rod Block. As IRM A is ranged up it will fall below the downscale setpoint of 7.5/125, and as IRM B slowly fails up, it exceeds the high setpoint for Rod Blocks.

A. Incorrect since IRM A will be on Range 2 and downscale, that will produce a Rod Block within the Reactor Manual Control System, but so will IRM B.

B. Incorrect since IRM B fails high it will produce a Rod Block but so will IRM A going low.

D. Incorrect since 1RM A and B are beyond their setpoints a Rod Block will be generated in both.

However a miscalculation of the affects that ranging will have on IRM A and since the high setpoint is very close to the value given both might not have come in yet.

Without gadolinium in the fuel, the maximum fuel enrichment that could be used, and meet the design requirement, is about 2.3 weight percent (wt

%) of U235. With gadolinium as a burnable poison, enrichments higher than 3.0 wt% of U235 can be used. Use of higher enrichments typically 3.8 to 4.24 wt% of U235 allow reload cores to be designed for 24 month refueling intervals.

For downscale need one from 142 and one from 143. The selected CREV train will AUTO start when the inlet damper is full open A Incorrect This is plausible because one downscale in each channel of the Reactor Zone radiation monitoring system will cause a trip of Reactor Zone and a CREV start. In this case however, there is a radiation monitor downscale in Channel of the Reactor Zone Rad monitoring system and in Channel B of the Control Room radiation monitoring system. Additionally both CREV units will not start on an initiation signal.

C Incorrect This is plausible because one downscale in each channel of the Reactor Zone radiation monitoring system will cause a CREV initiation but the CREV will start after the inlet damper opens.

D Incorrect This is plausible because a downscale of one CREV cam will NOT auto start the CREV and if the downscales were aligned differently for the Reactor Zone Monitors CREV would NOT auto start.
