4.2.
MINIM M RITI AL POWER RATI 3/4.2.3 (Continued) while still allotting time for the power distribution to stabilize.
The requirement for calculating MCPR, after initiallydetermining that a LIMITINGCONTROL ROD PATTERN exists, ensures MCPR will be known following a change in THERMAL POWER or power shape and therefore> operation while exceeding a thermal limit will be avoided.
4.2 4 LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE This specification assures that the linear heat generation rate (LHGR) in any rod is less than the design linear heat generation rate even if fuel pellet densification is postulated.
The daily requirement for calculating LHGR when THERMAL POWER is greater than or equal to 25/ of RATED THERMAL POWER is sufficient, since power distribution shifts are very slow when there have not been significant power or control rod changes.
The requirement to calculate LHGR within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> after the completion of a THERMAL POWER increase of at least 15% of RATED THERMAL POWER ensures thermal limits are met after power distribution shifts while still allotting time for the power distribution to stabilize.
The requirement for calculating LHGR, after initially determining a LIMITING CONTROL ROD PATTERN exists, ensures that LHGR will be known following a change in THERMAL POWER or power shape and therefore, operation while exceeding a thermal limitwill be avoided.
