Serial No.17-342 Docket No. 50-339 3.2 POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS 3.2.1 Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor (FQ(Z))

LCO 3.2.l FQ(Z), as approximated by FQE(z) and FQT(Z), shall be within the limits specified below.

CFQ=2.32 The Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor, FQ(Z), shall be limited by the following relationships:

for P > 0.5 CFQ

  • K(Z)

FQ(Z) :::; for P:::; 0.5 0.5 THERMAL POWER where: P= RATED THERMAL POWER; and K(Z) is provided in COLR Figure 3.2-1 FQE(Z) is an excellent approximation for FQ(Z) when the reactor is at the steady-state power.

FQ(Z) from the incore flux map results is increased by 1.03 for fuel manufacturing tolerances and 1.05 for measurement uncertainty to obtain FQE(Z).

Fg (Z) = FQ(Z) * (1.03) * (1.05)

The expression for FQT(Z) is:

Where N(Z) is a cycle-specific non-equilibrium multiplier on F QE(z) to account for power distribution transients during normal operation, provided in COLR Table 3.2-1.

The discussion in the Bases Section B 3.2.1 for this LCO requires the application of a cycle dependent non-equilibrium multiplier, N(Z), to the steady state Fl(ZJ. N(Z) accounts for power distribution transients encountered during normal operation. As function N(Z) is dependent on the predicted equilibrium F Q(Z) and is sensitive to the axial power distribution, it is typically generated from the actual EOC burnup distribution that can only be obtained after the shutdown of the previous cycle.

COLR-N2C25, Revision 3 EV AL-ENG-RSE-N2C25, Revision 0, Add. C, Attachment A Page 10 of23

Serial No.17-342 Docket No. 50-339 The cycle-specific penalty factors for flux map analysis are included in COLR Table 3.2-2.

Also discussed is the application of the appropriate factor to account for potential increases in FQ(Z) between surveillances. This factor is determined on a cycle specific basis and is dependent on the predicted increases in steady-state and transient FQ(Z)IK(Z) versus burnup. A minimum value of 2% is used should any increase in steady-state or transient measured or predicted peaking factor be determined unless .frequent flux mapping is invoked (7 EFPD). These values are typically generated from the actual EOC burnup distribution that can only be obtained qfter the shutdown ofthe previous cycle.

The required operating space reductions are provided in COLR Table 3.2-3.

Should FQr(Z) exceed its limits the normal operating space should be reduced to gain peaking factor margins. The determination and verification of the margin improvements along with the corresponding required reductions in the Thermal Power Limit and AFD Bands are performed on a cycle-specific basis. These values are typically generated from the actual EOC burnup distribution that can only be obtained after the shutdown of the previous cycle.
