26 3 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 1. INTRODUCTION The Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) provides the limits for operation of the Cooper Nuclear Station for Cycle 29 at a rated power of 2419 MwTH. Cooper Nuclear Station Technical Specification 5.6.5(a) requires the COLR to contain the following limits:* The Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate for Specification 3.2.1, and 3.7.7 o The Minimum Critical Power Ratio for Specifications 3.2.2 and 3.7.7,* The Linear Heat Generation Rates for Specifications 3.2.3 and 3.7.7* The three Rod Block Monitor Upscale Allowable Values for Specification 3.3.2.1,* The power/flow map defining the Stability Exclusion Region for Specification 3.4.1.In addition, the following information is required to be in the COLR:* Turbine Bypass System response time for Surveillance Requirement 3.7.7.3, The analytical methods used to determine the core operating limits are those previously reviewed and approved by the NRC as required by Technical Specification 56.5(b). These methods are:* NEDE-2401 1-P-A-i19-US, "General Electric Standard Application for Reactor Fuel", May 2012 (Reference 1),*NEDE-23785-1-P-A, 'The GESTR-LOCA and SAFER Models for the Evaluation of the Loss-of-Coolant Accident", Volume Ill, Revision 1, October 1984 (Reference 2),*NEDO-31 960-A and NEDO-31 960-A Supplement 1, "BWR Owner's Group Long-Term Stability Solutions Licensing Methodology", November 1995 (Reference 3).4 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 2. AVERAGE PLANAR LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE 2.1 Technical Specification Reference Technical Specifications 3.2.1 and 3.7.7.2.2 Two Recirculation Loop Operation During steady-state power operation, the maximum Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (MAPLHGR), as a function of fuel bundle type, axial location, and average planar exposure, shall not exceed the applicable limiting value.The maximum allowable Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate with two recirculation loops in operation is defined as follows: MAPLHGR Limit = minimum [MAPLHGR(P), MAPLHGR(F)]

where, MAPLHGR(P)

= MAPLHGRsTD

= MAPLHGRsTD

= Fuel bundle type and exposure dependent MAPLHGR values for rated core power and flow conditions represented by the values shown in Table 2-1, LHGRFACp = Core power dependent multiplier shown in Table 2-2, LHGRFACf = Core flow rate dependent multiplier shown in Table 2-3.The MAPLHGRsTD values presented in Table 2-1 are the most limiting values for each fuel bundle type from the exposure dependent values defined in Section 16 of Reference

6. The core monitoring computer will be used to verify the MAPLHGR limits for each fuel bundle type are not violated.The LHGRFACp and LHGRFACf multipliers presented in Table 2-2 and Table 2-3, respectively, are defined in References 5, 6, and 14.LHGRFACp and LHGRFACf multipliers are applied to MAPLHGR.No thermal limits monitoring is required below 25% of rated power. Therefore, the MAPLHGR limit defined above is only applicable for core conditions at or above 25% of rated power.5 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 2.3 Single Recirculation Loop Operation The maximum allowable Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate with one recirculation loop in operation (SLO) is defined as follows: MAPLHGR Limit = minimum [MAPLHGR(P), MAPLHGR(F), MAPLHGR(SLO)]

where, MAPLHGR(SLO)

= MAPLHGRsTD

= Single loop operation MAPLHGR multiplier, and MAPLHGR(P) and MAPLHGR(F) are as defined in Section 2.2 above.As shown above, it is not necessary to apply both the off-rated (LHGRFACp and LHGRFACf) and SLO multiplier corrections at the same time.The single loop operation MAPLHGR multiplier for each fuel bundle type are defined in Section 16 of Reference 6 as shown in the table below.SLO MAPLHGR Fuel Bundle Type Multiplier I All bundles 0.87 6 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 Table 2-1" MAPLHGRsTD Values Average MAPLHGRsTD Values for all GE14C Planarbude Exposurebude (GWd/MT) (kW/ft)0.00 12.82 21.10 12.82 63.50 8.00 70.00 5.00 GNF Bundle # GNF Fuel Bundle Identification EDB-2801 GE1 4-P10ODNAB393-1 7GZ-100OT-1 50-T6-2801 (GE1 40)EDB-3033 GEl14-P10ODNAB383-2G6.0/1 2G5.0-100aT-1 50-T6-3033 (GE140)EDB-31 87 GEl14-P10ODNAB381

MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO 3ol Technical Specification Reference Technical Specifications 3.2.2 and 3.7.7.3.2 Two Recirculation Loop Operation During steady-state power operation, the minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR)shall be greater than or equal to the Operating Limit MCPR (OLMCPR) defined as a function of cycle exposure and plant conditions.

The Operating Limit MCPR with two recirculation loops in operation is defined as follows: OLMCPR = maximum [MCPRp, MCPRf]where, MCPRp = Core power dependent MCPR shown in Table 3-2, MCPRf = Core flow rate dependent MCPR shown in Table 3-3.The MCPRp and MCPRf values presented in Table 3-2 and Table 3-3, respectively, are defined in References 5, 6, and 14.As shown in Reference 4, the MCPRp value is calculated as follows: For P > P(Bypass), MCPRp = OLMCPR(100)

  • K For P < P(Bypass), MCPRp = MCPRp as a function of core flow where, P(Bypass)

= P(Bypass) is the core power level below which the Turbine Stop Valve closure and Turbine Control Valve fast closure scrams are assumed to be bypassed.P(Bypass) is currently set at 30% of rated power.OLMCPR(100)

= OLMCPR for rated core power and flow conditions.

OLMCPR(1 00) is defined as a function of scram time surveillance data as defined in Section 3.3.Kp= Core power dependent OLMCPR multiplier.

No thermal limits monitoring is required below 25% of rated power. Therefore, the OLMCPR limit defined above is only applicable for core conditions at or above 25% of rated power.10 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 3.3 Application of Scram Time Surveillance Data to OLMCPR(1 00)The OLMCPR(100) value applicable to the MCPRp calculation presented in Section 3.2 is determined based on scram time surveillance data recorded for the current operating cycle and the following methodology defined in Reference 7, Reference 11, and Reference 12.3.3.1 Mean Scram Time (tav)The mean scram time for control rod insertion to notch 36 is calculated as follows: n i=l where, i = Scram time test sequential identification number, n = Number of scram time tests performed to date in the cycle (including beginning of cycle), Ni= Number of control rods measured in test i, S= Average insertion time to notch 36 measured in test i.3.3.2 20% Insertion Conformance Limit Scram Time (tB)The 20% insertion conformance limit scram time is calculated as follows: where, dU= Mean of the distribution for average scram time insertion to position 36 used in the ODYN Option B analysis,= Standard deviation of the distribution for average scram time insertion to position 36 used in the ODYN Option B analysis, N] = Total number of control rods measured during the first surveillance test performed at beginning of cycle.11 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 The values for p., a and N 1 are given below.p. = 0.830 a = 0.019 N 1 = 137 Using the values given above, Reference 7 defines the 20% insertion conformance limit scram time as, r 1 1=O0.830+O0.367 r~1'3.3.3 Scram Time Quality Factor (1;)The scram time quality factor is calculated as follows: lft1ave <-tIB, 1t---0.If >t1B, T"--Zave -- rB T'A --B where, TrA = Technical Specification limit for 20% insertion (notch 36)= 1.08 seconds (Technical Specification Table 3.1.4-1).3.3.4 Calculation of OLMCPR(100)

The OLMCPR for rated power and core flow conditions is calculated as follows based on the calculated values for tave, tg, and -r: OLMCPR(1 00) = maximum {OLMCPRB + -;*(LMPA OLMCPRB)Using the following value obtained from Section 15 of Reference 6, OLMCPRs = Is the maximum of either the Stability OLMCPR at Rated Power / Rated Flow = 1.41, or the SLO pump Pump Seizure event at rated conditions

= 1.43 -0.02 = 1.41.and the following values obtained from Section 11 of Reference 6, OLMCPRA = Option A OLMCPR value given in Table 3-1, OLMCPRB = Option B OLMCPR value given in Table 3-1.12 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 3.4 Single Recirculation Loop Operation The Operating Limit MCPR with a single recirculation loop in operation is defined as follows: OLMCPR = maximum [MCPR(SL-P), MCPR(SL-F)]

where, For P > P(Bypass), For P < P(Bypass), For all core flows, MCPR(SL-P)

= [OLMCPR(100)+AOLMCPR(SLO)]

= MCPRp + AOLMCPR(SLO), MCPR(SL-F)

= MCPRf + AOLMCPR(SLO), AOLMCPR(SLO)

= 0.02 from Section 11 of Reference 6, and OLMCPR(100), MCPRp, and MCPRf are as defined in Section 3.2.The increase in the OLMCPR for single loop operation corresponds to an increase in the safety limit MCPR (SLMCPR) for single loop operation as described in Reference 6.3.5 Use of Full Arc Turbine Control Valve The Operating Limit MCPR when using full arc turbine control valve mode (CNS operating procedures refer to this as single valve mode) is defined as follows: OLMCPR (single valve mode) = OLMCPR + AOLMCPR (single valve mode)where, OLMCPR -OLMCPR as calculated in Section 3.2 for two recirculation loop operation or in Section 3.4 for single loop operation.

AOLMCPR (single valve mode) = 0.01 from Appendix G of Reference 6.13 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 Table 3-1: OLMCPR Values for OLMCPR(1 00) Calculation EqimetStts Applicable Cycle OLMCPRA OLMCPRB Eqipet~ats Exposure Range GNF2 GE14C GNF2 GE14C BOO to InSevie EO-254Gd/T 1.47 1.48 1.37 1.37 Eqipen OR2.0 Gd/T 1.54 1.60 1.44 1.43________________to EOC_ __ _ _ _Turbine Bypass Valve Out of Service BOO to EOC 1.56 1.61 1.46 1.44 (TB VOOS) _______________

NOTES: 1. The range of OLMCPR values are defined as follows: OLMCPRA = Option A OLMCPR from Reference 6 based on Option A analysis using full core scram times defined in Technical Specification Table 3.1.4-1.OLMCPRB = Option B OLMCPR from Reference 6 based on Option B analysis described in Reference 1.2. The OLMCPR values presented above apply to rated power operation based on a two loop operation Safety Limit MCPR (SLMCPR) of 1.11.3. The OLMCPR values presented above bound Increased Core Flow (ICF) operation to 105% of rated flow throughout the cycle.4. Exposure ranges are defined as follows: BOO = Beginning of cycle, EOC =End of cycle, EOR = End of rated power operation at rated core flow and all rods withdrawn.

EOR is projected to be 15.113 GWd/MT in Reference 6 Section 3. The EOR exposure will vary based on actual cycle operations.

5. OLMCPRB for GNF2 for equipment in service from BOO to EOR-2.504 GWd/MT is set by the Inadvertent HPCI /L8 transient..

TURBINE BYPASS SYSTEM RESPONSE TIME 4.1 Technical Specification Reference Technical Specification 3.7.7.3.4.2 System Response Time The system response time for the Turbine Bypass System to be at 80% of rated bypass flow is 0.3 seconds. This was obtained from Reference 8.5. ROD BLOCK MONITOR TRIP SETPOINTS 5.1 Technical Specification Reference Technical Specification 3.3.2.1.5.2 Trip Setpoints The allowable values for the power dependent Rod Block Monitor (RBM) upscale trip setpoints are defined in Table 5-1, along with the applicable reactor power ranges associated with each trip setpoint.

Setpoints are given in units of percent of rated power.2. The RBM trip level settings associated with the MCPR limit, shown in the cycle specific MCPR limit in the above table, were verified in Section 10 of Reference 6 to bound the cycle specific Rod Withdrawal Error (RWE) analysis for an RBM setpoint of 111% of reference level. The scaled generic MCPR limit is based on an adjusted MCPR limit from the generic analysis documented in Reference 4 performed for an Analyzed Trip Level Setting (without RBM filter) of 114.0% of the reference level or an Analyzed Trip Level Setting (with RBM filter) of 113.2% of the reference level.The generic MCPR limit of 1.30 was calculated in Reference 4 for an SLMCPR of 1.07. The scaled generic MCPR limit documented above was calculated by multiplying the generic limit of 1.30 by the ratio of the SLMCPR values (1.11/1.07).

  • LHGRFACf, LHGRsTD = Fuel bundle type, fuel rod type, and peak pellet exposure dependent maximum LHGR values for rated core power and flow conditions represented by the values shown in Table 6-1, LHGRFACp = Core power dependent multiplier shown in Table 2-2, LHGRFACf = Core flow rate dependent multiplier shown in Table 2-3.The LHGRsTD values presented in Table 6-1 represent the maximum allowable peak pellet power (LHGR) as a function of pellet exposure for each pin type in each fuel bundle design. The maximum allowable LHGR limit values have the following pin type dependencies; UO 2 only pins which can either be full and partial length fuel rods, Gadolinia rods based on the local and maximum gadolinia concentration in the rod. The values in Table 6-1 were obtained from Reference
13. The core monitoring computer will be used to verify the pellet specific LHGR limits for each fuel bundle type are not violated.No thermal limits monitoring is required below 25% of rated power. Therefore, the LHGR limit defined above is only applicable for core conditions at or above 25% of rated power.19 of 25 CNS Cycle 29 COLR Revision 0 6.3 Single Recirculation Loop Operation The maximum allowable Linear Heat Generation Rate with one recirculation loop in operation (SLO) is defined as follows: LHGR Limit = minimum [LHGR(P), LHGR(F), LHGR(SLO)]
