bW is defined as the difference in indicated drive flow (in percent of drive flow which produces rated core flow) between two loop and single loop operation at the same core flow.
AM=0 for two loop operation.
BW=5X for single loop operation.
(b) See footnote ("") to Table 3.3.2-2 for trip setpoint during hydrogen addition test.

ISOLATION ACTUATION INSTRUMENTATION SETPOINTS Within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> prior to the planned start of the hydrogen injection test and with the reactor power at greater than 20K rated power, the normal full-power radiation background level and associated trip and alarm setpoints may be changed based on a calculated value of the radiation level expected during the test.
The background radiation level and associated trip and alarm setpoints may be adjusted during the test program based on either calculations or measurements of actual radiation levels resulting from hydrogen injection.
The background radiation level shall be determined and associated trip and alarm setpoints shall be reset within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> after completion of the hydrogen injection test.
At reactor power levels below 20X rated power hydrogen injection shall be terminated, and control rod withdrawal is prohibited until the Main Steam Line Radiation Monitor trip setpoint is restored to its pre-test value.
