Dear Mr. Keiser:
March 24, 1992
SUBJECT:
TOPICAL REPORT PL-NF-89-005, "QUALIFICATION OF TRANSIENT ANALYSIS METHODS FOR BWR DESIGN AND ANALYSIS," SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNITS 1
AND 2 (TAC NOS.
M82371 AND M82372)
By letter dated January 22,
- 1990, Pennsylvania Power and Light Company (the licensee) requested NRC review and approval of Topical Report PL-NF-89-005, "Qualification of Transient Analysis Methods for BWR Design and Analysis" for Susquehanna Steam Electric Station (SSES),
Units 1 and 2.
Based upon the staff's review, as given in the enclosed NRC Safety Evaluation, we find the application of PL-NF-89-005 acceptable for use in the
- SSES, Unit 1 Cycle 7
reload analysis under the limitations delineated in the associated NRC technical evaluation.
A revised methodology which explicitly models a time-varying axial power distribution in the hot fuel bundle has also been reviewed and approved with the limitations delineated in the enclosed NRC Safety Evaluation.
This revised methodology will be used by the Pennsylvania Power and Light Company for future reload analyses beginning with SSES, Unit 2 Cycle 6.
