NOTE TO EVALUATOR: The following steps are from Attachment 1 of 1-SI-0-21.
NOTES
- 1) Determining detector currents by measuring the voltage across the detector's meter test points, using a DVM, is the most accurate method for measuring QPTR and for determining the validity of a QPTR alarm.
- 2) Using the detector current meter readings is another method to quickly check that QPTR is within limits. These meters are NOT as accurate as the DVM readings and may produce unacceptable results because: 1) the meters on the B drawer may be scaled too high or (2) the meter may be unstable due to drift or noise. When unacceptable results are obtained, DVM readings should be obtained; otherwise, Step 1.0[1] and 1.0[2] may be marked N/A if DVM NOT used.
- 3) Up to one inoperable excore channel can be marked N/A if THERMAL POWER is < 75%

NOTES
- 1) The following determination may be made by measuring the voltage across the 1000 ohm precision resistor in NIS power range drawer B. When using this method the Ohm's Law conversion from a millivolt measurement to a microamp measurement only requires changing the unit designator (e.g., 280 millivolts converts to 280 microamps).

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose This Instruction provides detailed steps for determination of the Quadrant Power Tilt Ratio (QPTR) and Axial Flux Difference (AFD).2 1.2 Scope 1.2.1 Activities to be Performed A. Determination that QPTR is within limits.
B. Determination that AFD is within limits.
C. Maintenance of QPTR Constants on the plant Integrated Computer System (ICS).
D. Maintenance of AFD and Target Band Constants on the ICS.
1.2.2 Surveillance Requirements Fulfilled and Unit Modes Performance of this instruction satisfies the following Surveillance Requirements (SRs):
SURVEILLANCE APPLICABLE PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENT MODES MODES SR 3.2.4.1 1 (1) 1 (3) (2)
SR p 3.2.3.1 1 1 (1)
LCO 3.2.4 1 1 Action A.2 (1) Above 50% RATED THERMAL POWER (RTP).
(2) Greater than or equal to 50% RTP.
(3) This instruction is used for the 7 day frequency only. 1-SI-92-5 is used for the hourly frequency.
WBN Excore QPTR 1-SI-0-21 Unit 1 & Rev. 0019 Axial Flux Difference Page 6 of 25 1.3 Frequency and Conditions NOTE The ICS serves as the AFD Monitor Alarm and alternate to the QPTR alarm. The alarms are considered operable provided the computer is NOT failed and the calculated values are NOT flagged as NCAL.
A. Sections 6.1 and 6.2 are to be performed every 7 days if the QPTR & AFD alarms are OPERABLE and THERMAL POWER is 50% RTP.
B. Section 6.1 is to be performed every 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> if both of the QPTR alarms are INOPERABLE and THERMAL POWER is greater than 50% RTP.
C. Section 6.1 is to be performed following each NIS calibration when new calibration data is being entered to reset the clock associated with the inoperable QPTR alarm.
D. Section 6.1 and Attachment 1 may be performed after alarm indication of a Quadrant Power Tilt to verify validity and to more accurately determine the extent of the Quadrant Power Tilt.
E. QPTR and AFD determinations are required to be current before power escalation above 50% RTP.
F. Performance of Section 6.1 is NOT appropriate with one excore channel inoperable and THERMAL POWER 75% RTP. Under these conditions, SR 3.2.4.2 applies and 1-SI-0-22 will need to be performed.
G. Performance of Section 6.2 is NOT appropriate when the AFD monitor is INOPERABLE (e.g. the ICS or other software problems). Under this condition, 1-SI-92-5 must be performed.
H. ICS constants are required to be maintained current. Constants should be verified prior to the initial performance of this instruction after refueling and can be verified in any mode and at any time.
I. This SI or portions of this instruction may be performed at times other than those specified at the discretion of the Reactor Engineering Manager or SM/Unit SRO.
WBN Excore QPTR 1-SI-0-21 Unit 1 & Rev. 0019 Axial Flux Difference Page 7 of 25 1.4 Background QPTR is the ratio of the maximum upper excore detector calibrated output to the average of the upper excore detector calibrated outputs or the ratio of the maximum lower excore detector calibrated output to the average of the lower excore detector calibrated outputs, whichever is greater. If one excore detector is inoperable and THERMAL POWER is < 75% RTP, the remaining three detectors shall be used for computing the average.
The primary QPTR alarms are 1-XA-55-4B-83B, POWER RANGE UPR DETECTOR FLUX DEVN [1-M-4] and 1-XA-55-4B-83C, POWER RANGE LWR DETECTOR FLUX DEVN [1-M-4]. The secondary or alternate QPTR alarm is from the ICS and triggers the RONAN annunciation on [1-M-4] 1-XA-55-4B-83D, PLANT COMPUTER GENERATED ALARM (SEE ICS).
During normal surveillance of QPTR, the ICS calculation of QPTR is the preferred method to meet the surveillance. The most accurate method of calculating QPTR is by measuring the excore detector voltage across the detector's current meter test points in NIS power range drawer B. This is the preferred method for determining if the QPTR alarm indication is valid and to determine the extent of the Quadrant Power Tilt.
The ICS serves as the AFD Monitor Alarm and is considered operable provided that the computer is NOT failed and the calculated values are NOT flagged by NCAL. If the computer AFD data points differ significantly from MCR values, contact the plant computer Software Engineer for evaluation.
Axial Flux Difference is the difference in the normalized flux signals between the top and bottom halves of a two section excore neutron detector. The DELTA FLUX program on the ICS monitors the AFD of each of the operable excore channels once each minute and provides an alarm if the AFD for two or more operable excore channels are outside specified limits and triggers the RONAN annunciation on
[1-M-4] 1-XA-55-4B-83D, PLANT COMPUTER GENERATED ALARM (SEE ICS). If the ICS is inoperable, the indications on 1-M-4 are acceptable by themselves to monitor AFD. REFER TO instruction 1-SI-92-5 when the AFD alarm function is inoperable.

WBN Excore QPTR 1-SI-0-21 Unit 1 & Rev. 0019 Axial Flux Difference Page 9 of 25 3.0 PRECAUTIONS AND LIMITATIONS A. The meter test points in NIS Power Range drawer B are NOT isolated signals and improper measurement of the detector voltage while in the NIS drawer could cause a channel trip.
B. An inadvertent reactor trip may be prevented by ensuring that no power range neutron high flux rate or power range high flux channels are in the tripped condition prior to taking a detector voltage measurement in each power range drawer B.
C. AFD should be maintained within the limits specified in the Unit 1 Nuclear Operating Book (NOB) which will ensure requirements of the Unit 1 CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT (COLR) are met.
D. The ICS AFD data points should NOT differ significantly from MCR values when both the ICS and Power Range channels are calibrated.
E. When performing this instruction following an NIS calibration (on all 4 channels), this surveillance instruction must be performed between calibrations.
If Reactor Engineering used 1-SI-92-3, Incore-Excore Cross Calibration Data, to calibrate the ICS calculations for AFD and QPTR via non 1.00000 values for the power range computer point C1 coefficients, then the ICS QPTR calculation is OPERABLE (even though the 1-XA-55-4B-83B and 1-XA-55-4B-83C alarms are not yet calibrated).

The report may be printed with Turn On code TFREP.
- 2) Up to one inoperable excore channel can be marked N/A if THERMAL POWER is
< 75% RTP.

1.0 QPTR DETERMINATION USING DETECTOR CURRENTS NOTES
- 1) Determining detector currents by measuring the voltage across the detector's meter test points, using a DVM, is the most accurate method for measuring QPTR and for determining the validity of a QPTR alarm.
- 2) Using the detector current meter readings is another method to quickly check that QPTR is within limits. These meters are NOT as accurate as the DVM readings and may produce unacceptable results because: 1) the meters on the B drawer may be scaled too high or (2) the meter may be unstable due to drift or noise. When unacceptable results are obtained, DVM readings should be obtained; otherwise, Step 1.0[1] and 1.0[2] may be marked N/A if DVM NOT used.
