2.2 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES 2.2.1 REACTOR TRIP SETPOINTS The Reactor Trip Setpoints specified in Table 2.2-1 are the values at which the Reactor Trips are set for each parameter.
The Trip Values have been selected to ensure that the reactor core and reactor coolant system are prevented from exceeding their safety limits.
Operation with a trip set less conservative than its Trip Setpoint but within its specified Allowable Value is acceptable on the basis that the difference between each Trip Setpoint and the Allowable Value is equal to or less than the drift allowance assumed for each trip in the safety analyses.
Manual Reactor Tri The Manual Reactor Trip is a redundant channel to, the automatic protective instrumentation channels and provides manual reactor trip capability.
Power Level-Hi h
The Power Level-High trip provides reactor core protection against reactivity excursions which are too rapid to be protected by a Pressurizer Pressure-High or Thermal Margin/Low Pressure trip.
The Power Level-High trip setpoint is operator adjustable and can be set no higher than 9.61% above the indicated THERMAL POWER level.
Operator. action is required to increase the trip setpoint as THERMAL POWER is increased.
The trip setpoint is automatically decreased as THERMAL POWER decreases.
The trip setpoint has a maximum value of 107.0% of RATED THERMAL POWER and a minimum setpoint of 15% of RATED THERMAL POWER.
Adding to this maximum value the possible variation in trip point due to calibration and instrument errors, the maximum actual t'HERMAL POWER level at which a trip would be actuated is,ll2~ of RATED THERMAL POWER, which is consistent with the value used'in the safety analysis.
Reactor Coolant Flow-Low The Reactor Coolant Flow - Low trip provides core protection against DNB in the event of a sudden significant decrease in RCS flow.
The reactor trip setpoint on low RCS 71ow is calculated by a

2.2.
LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES Reactor Coolant Flow-Low (Continued) relationship between steam genera".ur differential pressure, core inlet temperature, instrument errors and response times.
When the calculated RCS flow falls below the trip setpoint an automatic reaCtor trip signal is initiated.
The trip setpoint and allowable values ensure that for a degradation of RCS flow resulting from expected transients, a reactor trip occurs to prevent violation of local power density or DNBR safety limits.
Pressurizer Pressure-Hi h
The Pressurizer Pressure-High trip, backed up by the pressurizer code safety valves and main steam line safety valves, provides reactor coolant system protection against overpr essurization in the event of loss of load without reactor trip.
This trip's setpoint is 100 psi below the nominal lift setting (2500 psia) of the pressurizer code safety valves and its con-current operation with the power-operated relief valves avoids the undesir-able operation of the pressurizer code safety valves.
Containment Pressure-Hi h
The Containment Pressure High trip provides assurance that a reactor trip is initiated concurrently with a safety injection.
Steam Generator Pressure-Low The Steam Generator Pressure-Low trip provides protection against an excessive rate of heat extraction from the steam generators and sub-sequent cooldown of the reactor coolant.
The setting of 600 psia is sufficiently below the full-load operating point of 800 psig so as not ST.

LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES Steam Generator Pressure-Low (Continued )
to interfere with normal operation, but still high enough to provide the required protection in the event of excessively high steam flow.
This setting was used with an uncertainty factor of + 22 psi in the accident analyses.
Steam Generator Water Level - Low The Steam Generator Water Level-Low trip provides core protection by preventing operation with the steam generator water level below the minimum volume required for adequate heat removal capacity and assures that the design pressure of the reactor coolant system will not be exceeded due to loss of steam generator heat sink.
The specified setpoint provides allowance that there will be sufficient water inventory in the steam generators at the time of trip to provide a margin of more than 10 minutes before auxiliary feedwater is required.
Local Power Densit -Hi h The local Power Density-High trip, functioning from AXIAL SHAPE INDEX monitoring, is provided to ensure that the peak local power density in the fuel which corresponds to fuel centerline meIting will not occur as a consequence of axial power maldistributions.
A reactor trip is initiated whenever the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX exceeds the allowable limits of Figure 2.2-2.
The AXIAL SHAPE INDEX is calculated from the upper and lower ex-core neutron detector channels.
The calculated setpoints are generated as a function of THERMAL POWER level with the allowed CEA group position being inferred from the THERMAL POWER level.
he trip is automatically bypassed below 15 percent power.
The maximum AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT and maximum CEA misalignment per-itted for continuous operation are assumed in generation of the set-oints.
In addition, CEA group sequencing in accordance with the pecifications 3.1.3.5 and 3. 1.3. 6 is assumed.
Finally, the maximum insertion of CEA banks which can occur during any anticipated operational ccurrence prior to a Power Level-High trip is assumed.

2.1 SAFETY LIMITS BASES 2.1.1 REACTOR CORE The restrictions of this safety limit prevent overheating of the fuel clad-ding and possible cladding perforation which would result in the release of fission products to the reactor coolant.
Overheating of the fuel is prevented by maintaining the steady-state peak linear heat rate below the level at which centerline fuel melting will occur.
Overheating of the fuel cladding is prevented by restricting fuel operation to within the nucleate boiling regime where the heat transfer coefficient is large and the cladding surface temperature is slightly above the coolant saturation temperature.
Operation above the upper boundary of the nucleate boiling regime could result in excessive cladding temperatures because of the onset of departure from nucleate boiling (DNB) and the resultant sharp reduction in heat transfer coeffi-cient.
DNB is not a directly measurable parameter during operation and therefore THERMAL POWER and Reactor Coolant Temperature and Pressure have been related to DNB through the CE-1 correlation.
The CE-1 DNB correlation has been developed to predict the DNB heat flux and the location of DNB for axially uniform and non-uniform heat flux distributions.
The local DNB heat flux ratio, DNBR, defined as the ratio of the heat flux that would cause DNB at a particular core location to the local heat flux, is indicative of the margin to DNB.
The minimum value of the DNBR during steady state operation, normal opera-tional transients, and anticipated transients is limited to 1.28.
This value is derived through a statistical combination of the system parameter probability distribution functions with the CE-1 DNB correlation uncertainty.
This value corresponds to a 95 probability at a
95% confidence level that DNB will not occur and is chosen as an appropriate margin to DNB for all opeeating conditions.
The curves of Figure 2.1-1 show the loci of points of THERMAL POWER, Reactor Coolant System pressure and maximum cold leg temperature with four Reactor Cool-ant Pumps operating for which the minimum DNBR is no less than 1.28 for the family of axial shapes and corresponding radial peaks shown in Figure B 2.1-1.
The limits in Figure 2.1-1 were calculated for reactor coolant inlet temperatures less than or equal to 580'F.
The dashed line at 580'F coolant inlet temperature is not a safety limit; however, operation above 580'F is not possible because of the actuation of the main steam line safety valves which-limit the maximum value of reactor inlet temperature.
Reactor operation at THERMAL POWER levels higher than 112 of RATED THERMAL POWER is prohibited by the high power level trip set-point specified in Table 2.2-1.
The area of safe operation is below and to the
(
left of these lines.
The conditions for the Thermal Margin Safety Limit curves in Figure 2.1-1 to be valid are shown on the figure.
The Thermal Margin/Low Pressure and Local Power Density Trip Systems, in conjunction with Limiting Conditions for Operation, the Variable Overpower Trip and the Power 'Dependent Insertion Limits, assure that the Specified Acceptable Fuel Design Limits on DNB and Fuel Centerline Melt are not exceeded during normal operation and design basis Anticipated Operational Occurrences.

SAFETY LIMITS AND LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES Containment Pressure-Hi h
The Containment pressure-High trip provides assurance that a reactor trip is initiated prior to or concurrently with a safety injection (SIAS).
This also provides assurance that a reactor trip is initiated prior to or concurrently with an MSIS.
Steam Generator Pressure-Low The Steam Generator Pressure-Low trip provides protection against an excessive rate of heat extraction from the steam generators and subsequent cooldown of the reactor coolant.
7he setpoint of 620 psia is sufficiently below the full load operating point of approximately 885 psia so as not to interfere with normal operation, but still high enough to provide the required protection in the event of excessively high steam flow.
This setting was used with an uncertainty factor of 30 psi in the safety analyses, Steam Generator Level-Low The Steam Generator Level-Low trip provides protection against a loss of feedwater flow incident and,assures that the design pressure of the Reactor Coolant System will not be exceeded due to loss of the steam generator heat sink.
This specified setpoint provides allowance that there will be sufficient water inventory in the steam generator at the time of the trip to provide a
margin of at least 10 minutes before auxiliary feedwater is required.
This trip also protects against violation of the specified acceptable fuel design limits (SAFDL) for DNBR, offsite dose and the loss of shutdown margin for asymmetric steam generator transients such as the opening of a main steam safety valve or atmospheric dump valve.
Local Power Densit -Hi h
'The Local Power Density-High trip, functioning from AXIAL SHAPE INDEX monitoring, is provided to ensure that the peak local power density in the fuel which corresponds to fuel centerline melting will not occur as a
consequence of axial power maldistributions.
A reactor trip is initiated whenever the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX exceeds the allowable limits of Figure 2.2-2.
The AXIAL SHAPE INDEX is calculated'rom the upper and lower excore neutron detector channels.
The calculated setpoints are generated as a function of THERMAL POWER level with the allowed CEA group positiion being inferred, from the THERMAL POWER level.
The trip is automatically bypassed below 15% power.
The maximum AZIMUTHAL POWER TILT and maximum CEA misalignment permitted for continuous operation are assumed in generation of the setpoints.
In
- addition, CEA group sequencing in accordance with the Specifications 3.1.3.5 and 3.1.3.5 is assumed.
Finally, the maximum insertion of CEA banks which can occur during any anticipated operational occurrence prior to a
Power Level-High trip is assumed.

SAFETY LIMITS ANO LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES RCP Loss of Com onent Cool in Mater A loss of component cooling water to the reactor coolant pumps causes a
delayed reactor trip.
This trip provides protection to the reactor coolant pumps by ensuring that plant operation is not continued without cooling water avalable.
The trip is delayed l0 minutes following a reduction in flow to below'he trip setpoint and the trip does not occur if flow is restored before 10 minutes elapses.
No credit was-taken for this trip in the safety analysis.
Its functional capability at the specified trip setting is required to enhance the overall reliability of the Reacto~ Protective System.
Rate of Chan e of Power-Hi h
The Rate of Change of Power-High trip is provided to protect the core during startup operations and its use serves as a backup to the administra-tively enforced startup rate limit.
Its trip setpoint does not correspond to a Safety Limit and no credit was taken in the safety analyses for operation of this trip.
Its functional capability at the specified trip setting is required to enhance the overall reliability of the Reactor Protection System.
Reactor Coolant Flow -
Low The Reactor Coolant Flow -
Low trip provides core protection against DNB in the event of a sudden significant decrease in RCS flow.
The reactor trip setpoint on low RCS flow is calculated by a relationship between steam generator differential pressure, core inlet temperature, instrument errors and response times.
'.,'hen the calculated RCS flow fails below the trip setpoint an automatic reactor trip signal is initiated.
The trip setpoint and allowable values ensure that for a degradation of RCS flow resulting from expected transients, a reactor trip occurs to prevent violation of local power density or DNBR safety limits.'T.
