07.05-1_Rev.4 - 1 / 11 KEPCO/KHNP Non-Proprietary REVISED RESPONSE TO REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION APR1400 Design Certification Korea Electric Power Corporation / Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power %Q.6&

Docket No.52-046 RAI No.:

38-7878 SRP Section:

07.05 - Information Systems Important to Safety Application Section:

7.5 Date of RAI Issue:

06/18/2015 Question No. 07.05-01 APR1400 FSAR Tier 2, Section 7.5.1.1 does not provide the basis or analysis for the selection of the accident monitoring instrumentation (AMI) variables.

10 CFR Part 50, Appendix A, General Design Criteria 13, "Instrumentation and Controls,"

requires, in part, instrumentation to be provided to monitor variables and systems over their anticipated ranges for normal operation, anticipated operational occurrences, and accident conditions. APR1400 FSAR Tier 2, Table 7.5-1, "Accident Monitoring Instrumentation Variables,"

identifies a list of AMI variables and states that the design conforms to RG 1.97, Revision 4, in APR1400 FSAR Tier 2, Section 7.5.1.1. However, the applicant did not clearly demonstrate how they conform with RG 1.97, Revision 4, for each variable, including the analysis or basis for the variable. Provide the basis for the AMI variable selection in accordance with RG 1.97, Revision

4. If alternative criteria to RG 1.97, Revision 4 are used, identify that criteria and the justification for why it provides a comparable level of safety to the guidance in RG 1.97, Revision 4.

Response - (Rev. 4)

The AMI variables were selected according to the selection criteria in IEEE 497-2002, which is endorsed by RG1.97, Rev.4.

The basis and analysis for selecting each AMI variable are described as follows:

Type A Type A variables are those variables that provide the primary information required to permit the control room operating staff to:

a) Take specific planned manually-controlled actions for which no automatic control is provided and that are required for safety systems to perform their safety-related functions as assumed in the plant Accident Analysis Licensing Basis.

07.05-1_Rev.4 - 2 / 11 KEPCO/KHNP Non-Proprietary b) Take specific planned manually-controlled actions for which no automatic control is provided and that are required to mitigate the consequences of an AOO.

KHNPs response to the Request for Additional Information (RAI) 294-8302, Question 07.05-6 (ref. KHNP submittal MKD/NW-16-0584L, dated June 1, 2016) provided the basis and analysis for the APR1400 Type A variables.

Type B Type B variables are those variables that provide primary information to the control room operators to assess the plant critical safety functions.

Any plant critical safety functions addressed in the emergency operation guidelines (EOGs) that are in addition to those identified above are also included.

In order to select Type B variables for meeting the requirements in IEEE Std. 497-2002 (endorsed by RG 1.97, Rev. 4), the EOGs are reviewed. The plant critical safety functions described in the EOGs include those of IEEE Std.497-2002. EOGs provide the plant critical safety functions to be verified for each event and the criteria for deciding the plant critical safety functions.

The plant critical safety functions described in the EOG are as follows:

Reactivity control Maintenance of vital auxiliaries Reactor coolant system (RCS) inventory control RCS pressure control Core heat removal RCS heat removal Containment isolation Containment temperature and pressure control Containment combustible gas control Type C Type C variables are those variables that provide primary information to the control room operators to indicate the potential for breach, or the actual breach of the three fission product barriers (extended range): fuel cladding, reactor coolant system pressure boundary, and containment pressure boundary.

The selection of these variables represents a minimum set of plant variables that provide the most direct indication of the integrity of the three fission product barriers and provide the capability for monitoring beyond the normal operating range.

Type D Type D variables are those variables that are required in procedures and licensing basis documentation to:

07.05-1_Rev.4 - 3 / 11 KEPCO/KHNP Non-Proprietary Indicate the performance of those safety systems and auxiliary supporting features necessary for the mitigation of design basis events (DBEs).

Indicate the performance of other systems necessary to achieve and maintain a safe shutdown condition.

Verify safety system status.

The Type D variables are based upon the plant accident analysis licensing basis and those necessary to implement the EOGs.

The resource tree of the EOG functional recovery guides describes the systems, including instruments and components, that are required for recovering the plant critical safety functions.

Those instruments and components, as well as the variables required for verifying the system-base safety function performance, were selected as Type D variables.

Type E Type E variables are those variables required for use in determining the magnitude of the release of radioactive materials and continually assessing such releases.

The selection of these variables include, but are not limited to the following:

Monitor the magnitude of releases of radioactive materials through identified pathways (e.g., secondary safety valves, and condenser air ejector).

Monitor the environmental conditions used to determine the impact of releases of radioactive materials through identified pathways (e.g., wind speed, wind direction, and air temperature).

Monitor radiation levels and radioactivity in the plant environs.

Monitor radiation levels and radioactivity in the control room and selected plant areas where access may be required for plant recovery.

Below is a listing of the AMI variables of the APR1400 DCD Tier 2, Table 7.5-1, along with the variables type classifications and their justifications.

RAI 38-7878 - Question 07.05-1_Rev.2 Non-Proprietary "A" (Cont.)

Type D Type D variables are those variables that are required in procedures and licensing basis documentation to:

Indicate the performance of those safety systems and auxiliary supporting features necessary for the mitigation of design basis events (DBEs).

Indicate the performance of other systems necessary to achieve and maintain a safe shutdown condition.

Verify safety system status.

The Type D variables are based upon the plant accident analysis licensing basis and those necessary to implement the EOGs.

The resource tree of the EOG functional recovery guides describes the systems, including instruments and components, that are required for recovering the plant critical safety functions.

Those instruments and components, as well as the variables required for verifying the system-base safety function performance, were selected as Type D variables.

Type E Type E variables are those variables required for use in determining the magnitude of the release of radioactive materials and continually assessing such releases.

The selection of these variables includeV, but are not limited to the following:

Monitor the magnitude of releases of radioactive materials through identified pathways (e.g., secondary safety valves, and condenser air ejector).

Monitor the environmental conditions used to determine the impact of releases of radioactive materials through identified pathways (e.g., wind speed, wind direction, and air temperature).

Monitor radiation levels and radioactivity in the plant environs.

Monitor radiation levels and radioactivity in the control room and selected plant areas where access may be required for plant recovery.

APR1400 DCD TIER 2 The QIAS-P provides an unambiguous indication of ICC and advanced warning of the approach of ICC.

The QIAS-P calculates a representative CET temperature from the CETs.

The QIAS-P calculates reactor coolant subcooling margins based on the CET temperatures, the hot and cold leg temperatures, the HJTC temperature measurements from the reactor vessel head region, and pressurizer pressure. The QIAS-P controls the power for the HJTC heaters. The heater power control devices are located in the QIAS-P cabinet. Heater control for the HJTC is manually switched from the QIAS-P channel A only to the diverse indication system (DIS) via DIS switch on safety console. The QIAS-P also calculates the reactor vessel level based on the HJTC signals.

The QIAS-P provides backup displays for the ICC variables. The primary displays for ICC variables are implemented in the safety parameter display and evaluation system

+ (SPADES+) within the IPS.

The QIAS-P receives Type A, B and C variables from the plant protection system (PPS),

engineered safety features - component control system (ESF-CCS) via a safety system data network (SDN) and auxiliary process cabinet - safety (APC-S) and process instrumentation via a hardwired connection.

The QIAS-P has divisionalized cabinets for divisions A and B. The QIAS-P cabinets for each division are physically located in divisionalized I&C equipment rooms to meet the requirements of IEEE Std. 603(Reference 3).

The QIAS-P generates alarms and sends them to the QIAS-N and IPS.

Qualified Indication and Alarm System - Non-Safety The QIAS-N displays the safety parameters and key operating parameters to be used by the operators during both normal operation and accidents. The QIAS-N displays parameter values and alarms using signal validation, alarm filtering, alarm suppression, and alarm prioritization.

The QIAS-N consists of the following equipment:

RAI 38-7878 - Question 07.05-1_Rev.2 Non-Proprietary saturation

APR1400 DCD TIER 2 The signals from the resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), unheated thermocouples in the HJTC system, CET temperature, and pressure sensors are used to calculate the loss of subcooling, occurrence of saturation, and achievement of a subcooled condition following core recovery.

The reactor vessel level monitors provide information to the operator on the decreasing liquid inventory in the reactor vessel (RV) regions above the fuel alignment plate (FAP), as well as the increasing RV liquid inventory above the FAP following core recovery from the ICC.

The CETs monitor the increasing RCS temperatures associated with the ICC and the decreasing RCS temperature associated with recovery from the ICC.

SPADES+ is designed to meet the criteria for SPDS set forth in NUREG-0696 (Reference 4) and NUREG-0737, Supplement No. 1 (Reference 5). The SPADES+

displays ICC variables as a primary display. The QIAS-P provides a backup display of the ICC variables as a backup.

a.

Primary ICC displays The ICC variables are incorporated into the SPADES+ and alarm logic of the IPS.

The SPADES+ is a computer applications program of the IPS, and provides a primary display of ICC information.

The critical safety functions are monitored by a set of algorithms that process the measured plant variables to determine the plant safety status relative to safety function control. If any of the critical functions are violated (by exceeding logic setpoints), a critical function alarm is initiated. The calculated ICC outputs are incorporated into the core heat removal critical function alarm logic.

The SPADES+ of the IPS has an ICC summary page as part of the core heat removal control critical function, and more detailed display pages for each of the ICC variables.

The summary page includes the following information:

1) RCS/RV upper head subcooling margin - the lower value of either the RCS subcooling margin or RV upper head subcooling margin 7.5-6 5HY

b.

Backup ICC displays The QIAS-P provides Class 1E backup displays for ICC variables, and is seismically and environmentally qualified. The displays of ICC variables are dedicated and integrated following the guidance of the Style Guide (Reference 6).

The QIAS-P displays are designed as follows:

1) To provide display of ICC variables
2) To provide indications in the event that the primary display becomes inoperable
3) To provide confirmatory indication to the primary display The following information is available on the QIAS-P display pages:
1) RCS/RV upper head subcooling margin
2) Reactor vessel level above the core
3) Representative core exit temperature 7.5.1.3 Bypassed and Inoperable Status Indication The bypass and inoperable status indication (BISI) is a non-safety system because it is not required to operate during design basis accident (DBA) conditions to mitigate the accidents.

System-level automatic bypass indication is provided based on the guidance of NRC RG 1.47 (Reference 7). Compliance with NRC RG 1.47 is described as follows:

a.

Flags are provided to indicate, at the system level, the bypass or deliberate inoperability of a protection system. The system-level alarms are actuated when a component actuated by a protection system is bypassed or deliberately rendered inoperable.

Auxiliary Feedwater Flow The Auxiliary Feedwater Flow is provided to verify the flow of Auxiliary Feedwater supplied to corresponding steam generator. The Auxiliary Feedwater System delivers the minimum required flow of 650 gpm to the affected steam generator within 60 seconds following an AFAS.

The maximum rate of auxiliary feedwater flow delivered to the steam generator at 1,240 psia or less is equal to or less than 950 gpm. The flowrate is indicated range of 0 to 3,600 lpm (0 to 950 gpm).

Two channels are required to be OPERABLE for all but one Function.

Two OPERABLE channels ensure that no single failure within the AMI or its auxiliary supporting features or power sources, concurrent with failures that are a condition of or result from a specific accident, prevents the operators from obtaining from being presented the information necessary for them to determine the safety status of the plant and to bring the plant to and maintain it in a safe condition following that accident.

In Table 3.3.11-1 delineates that the exception to the two channel requirements is the containment isolation valve position.

Two OPERABLE channels of core exit thermocouples are required for each channel in each quadrant to provide indication of radial distribution of the coolant temperature rise across representative regions of the core. Power distribution symmetry is considered in determining the specific number and locations provided for diagnosis of local core problems. Therefore, two randomly selected thermocouples may not be sufficient to meet the two thermocouples per channel requirement in any quadrant. The two thermocouples in each channel must meet the additional requirement that one be located near the center of the core and the other near the core perimeter, such that the pair of core exit thermocouples indicates the radial temperature gradient across their core quadrant. Two sets of two thermocouples in each quadrant ensure a single failure will not disable the ability to determine the radial temperature gradient.

For loop and steam generator related variables, the required information is individual loop temperature and individual steam generator level.

In these cases two channels are required to be OPERABLE for each loop of steam generator to redundantly provide the necessary information.

RCS Loops - MODES 4 B 3.4.6 BASES LCO (continued)

Core outlet temperature is to be maintained at least 5.6°C (10qF) below saturation temperature so that no vapor bubble can form and possibly cause a natural circulation flow obstruction. The response of the RCS without the RCPs or SC pumps depends on the core decay heat load and the length of time that the pumps are stopped. As decay heat diminishes, the effects on RCS temperature and pressure diminish.

Without cooling by forced flow, higher heat loads will cause the reactor coolant temperature and pressure to increase at a rate proportional to the decay heat load. Because pressure can increase, the applicable system pressure limits (pressure and temperature (P/T) limits or low temperature overpressure protection (LTOP) limits) must be observed and forced SC flow or heat removal via the SGs must be re-established prior to reaching the pressure limit. The circumstances for stopping both RCPs or SC pumps are to be limited to situations where:

a. Pressure and temperature increases can be maintained well within the allowable pressure (P/T limits and LTOP) and 5.6°C (10qF) subcooling limits or
b. An alternate heat removal path through the SGs is in operation.

Note 2 requires, before an RCP is started with any RCS cold leg temperature less than or equal to the LTOP enable temperature specified in the PTLR, that secondary side water temperature in each SG is 55.6°C (100°F) above each of the RCS cold leg temperatures.

Satisfying the above conditions will preclude a large pressure surge in the RCS when the RCP is started.

An OPERABLE RCS loop consists of at least one OPERABLE RCP and an SG that is OPERABLE in accordance with the steam generator tube surveillance program and has the minimum water level specified in SR 3.4.6.2.

Similarly, for the SC System (SCS), an OPERABLE SC train is composed of the OPERABLE SC pump capable of providing forced flow to the SC heat exchanger.

RCPs and SC pumps are OPERABLE if they are capable of being powered and are able to provide flow if required. Management of gas voids is important to SCS OPERABILITY.

RCS Loops - MODE 5 (Loops Filled)

B 3.4.7 BASES LCO The purpose of this LCO is to require at least one of the SC trains be OPERABLE and in operation with an additional SC train OPERABLE or secondary side water level of each SG shall be 25% wide range. One SC train provides sufficient forced circulation to perform the safety functions of the reactor coolant under these conditions. The second SC train is normally maintained OPERABLE as a backup to the operating SC train to provide redundant paths for decay heat removal. However, if the standby SC train is not OPERABLE, a sufficient alternate method to provide redundant paths for decay heat removal is two SGs with their secondary side water levels 25% wide range. Should the operating SC train fail, the SGs could be used to remove the decay heat.

Note 1 permits all SC pumps to be de-energized 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> per 8 hour9.259259e-5 days <br />0.00222 hours <br />1.322751e-5 weeks <br />3.044e-6 months <br /> period. The circumstances for stopping both SC trains are to be limited to situations where pressure and temperature increases can be maintained well within the allowable pressure (pressure and temperature (P/T) limits or low temperature overpressure protection (LTOP) limits) and 5.6°C (10qF) subcooling limits, or an alternate heat removal path through the SG(s) is in operation.

This LCO is modified by a Note that prohibits boron dilution when SC forced flow is stopped because an even concentration distribution cannot be ensured. Core outlet temperature is to be maintained at least 5.6°C (10qF) below saturation temperature, so that no vapor bubble would form and possibly cause a natural circulation flow obstruction.

In this MODE, the SG(s) can be used as the backup for SC heat removal.

To ensure their availability, the RCS loop flow path is to be maintained with subcooled liquid.

In MODE 5, it is sometimes necessary to stop all RCPs or SC forced circulation. This is permitted to change operation from one SC train to the other, perform surveillance or startup testing, perform the transition to and from the SC System, or to avoid operation below the RCP minimum net positive suction head limit. The time period is acceptable because natural circulation is acceptable for decay heat removal, the reactor coolant temperature can be maintained subcooled, and boron stratification affecting reactivity control is not expected.

RCS Loops - MODE 5 (Loops Not Filled)

B 3.4.8 B 3.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM (RCS)

B 3.4.8 RCS Loops - MODE 5 (Loops Not Filled)

BASES BACKGROUND In MODE 5 with the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) loops not filled, the primary function of the reactor coolant is the removal of decay heat and transfer of this heat to the shutdown cooling (SC) heat exchangers. The steam generators are not available as a heat sink when the loops are not filled. The secondary function of the reactor coolant is to act as a carrier for soluble neutron poison, boric acid.

In MODE 5 with loops not filled, only the SC System (SCS) can be used for coolant circulation. The number of trains in operation can vary to suit the operational needs. The intent of this LCO is to provide forced flow from at least one SC train for decay heat removal and transport. The other intent of this Limiting Condition for Operation (LCO) is to require that two paths be available to provide redundancy for heat removal.

This LCO permits limited periods without forced circulation. When the SC trains are not in operation, no alternate heat removal path exists.

The response of the RCS without the SCS depends on the decay heat load and the length of time that the SC pumps are stopped. As decay heat diminishes, the effects on RCS temperature diminish. Without cooling by SCS, higher heat loads will cause the reactor coolant temperature to increase at a rate proportional to the decay heat load.

Because pressure can increase, applicable system pressure limits (pressure and temperature limits or low temperature overpressurization limits) must be observed and forced SCS flow must be reestablished prior to reaching the pressure limit. Entry into a condition with no SCS train in operation stops heat removal and should only be considered for limited circumstances such as when switching from one SCS train to the other.

With the SC pumps stopped, pressure and temperature could increase and pumps must be restored prior to exceeding pressure and subcooling limits.

The SC System removes decay heat from the RCS and transfers the heat to the Component Cooling Water (CCW) System. During Loops Not Filled operations the interruption or loss of SCS flow, decay heat removal (DHR) capability, can lead to bulk boiling quite rapidly.

Pressurizer B 3.4.9 BASES BACKGROUND (continued)

The minimum steady state water level in the pressurizer assures pressurizer heaters, which are required to achieve and maintain pressure control, remain covered with water to prevent failure, which could occur if the heaters were energized uncovered.

The requirement to have two groups of pressurizer heaters ensures that RCS pressure can be maintained. The pressurizer heaters maintain RCS pressure to keep the reactor coolant subcooled. Inability to control RCS pressure during natural circulation flow could result in a loss of single phase flow and a decreased capability to remove core decay heat.

APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES In MODES 1, 2, and 3, the LCO requirement for a steam bubble is reflected implicitly in the accident analyses. No safety analyses are performed in lower MODES. All analyses performed from a critical reactor condition assume the existence of a steam bubble and saturated conditions in the pressurizer. In making this assumption, the analyses neglect the small fraction of non-condensible gases normally present.

Safety analyses presented in FSAR do not take credit for pressurizer heater operation, however, an implicit initial condition assumption of the safety analyses is that the RCS is operating at normal pressure.

Although the heaters are not specifically credited in accident analysis, the need to maintain subcooling in the long term during loss of offsite power, as indicated in NUREG-0737 (Ref. 2), is the reason for inclusion. The requirement for emergency power supplies is based on NUREG-0737 (Ref. 2). The intent is to allow maintaining the reactor coolant in a subcooled condition with natural circulation at hot, high pressure conditions for an undefined, but extended, time period after a loss of offsite power. While loss of offsite power is a coincident occurrence with turbine trip assumed in many accident analyses, maintaining hot, high pressure conditions over an extended time period is not evaluated as part of the accident analyses.

The pressurizer satisfies the Criteria 2 and 3 of 10 CFR 50.36(c)(2)(ii).

Pressurizer B 3.4.9 BASES LCO The LCO requirement for the pressurizer to be OPERABLE with water level 25% and 56% ensures that a steam bubble exists. Limiting the maximum operating water level preserves the steam for pressure control.

The minimum operating water level is established pressurizer heaters remain covered with water to prevent failure, which could occur if the heaters were energized uncovered in steam bubble region. The intent of the LCO is to ensure that a steam bubble exists in the pressurizer to minimize the consequences of potential overpressure transients.

The LCO requires two groups of OPERABLE pressurizer heaters, each with a capacity 200 kW (and capable of being powered from an emergency power supply). The minimum heater capacity required is sufficient to maintain the RCS near normal operating pressure when accounting for heat losses through the pressurizer insulation. By maintaining the pressure near the operating conditions, a wide subcooling margin to saturation can be obtained in the loops. The exact design value of 300 kW is derived from the use of 6 heaters rated at 50 kW each.

The amount needed to maintain pressure is dependent on the ambient heat losses.

APPLICABILITY The need for pressurizer pressure control is most pertinent when core heat can cause the greatest effect on RCS temperature resulting in the greatest effect on pressurizer level and RCS pressure control. Thus, Applicability has been designated for MODES 1, 2, and 3. The purpose is to prevent solid water RCS operation during heatup and cooldown to avoid rapid pressure rises caused by normal operational perturbation, such as reactor coolant pump startup.

The LCO does not apply to MODE 5 (Loops Filled) because LCO 3.4.11, Low Temperature Overpressure Protection (LTOP) System, applies.

The LCO does not apply to MODES 5 and 6 with partial loop operation.

In MODES 1, 2, and 3, there is the need to maintain the availability of pressurizer heaters capable of being powered from an emergency power supplies. In the event of a loss of offsite power, the initial conditions of these MODES give the greatest demand for maintaining the RCS in a hot pressurized condition with loop subcooling for an extended period. For MODE 4, 5, or 6, it is not necessary to control pressure (by heaters) to ensure loop subcooling for heat transfer when the shutdown cooling System is in-service and, therefore, the LCO is not applicable.

RCGV Function B 3.4.16 B 3.4 REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM (RCS)

B 3.4.16 Reactor Coolant Gas Vent (RCGV) Function BASES BACKGROUND The reactor coolant gas vent (RCGV) function is to provide a safety grade means of venting non-condensible gases and steam from the pressurizer and the reactor vessel closure head. The RCGV function is designed to be used during all design bases events for RCS pressure control purposes when Main Spray and Auxiliary Spray Systems are unavailable.

The OPERABILITY of at least one RCGV path from the pressurizer and at least one RCGV path from the reactor vessel closure head to the IRWST ensures that this function can be performed.

The RCGV function is a manually operated safety grade system. It removes non-condensible gases or steam from the pressurizer and the reactor vessel closure head through vent lines to the in-containment refueling water storage tank (IRWST). Each vent line has two pairs of parallel isolation valves which are closed during normal operation.

During shutdown or transient conditions, if the operator judges that non-condensible gases are collected in the pressurizer or in the reactor vessel closure head, the operator vents the gases by manually opening the RCGV valves from the main control room (MCR) according to operating procedures. The RCGV function will have the capability to be manually actuated, monitored, and controlled from the MCR as required by GDC 19.

The two isolation valves in each parallel path are normally powered from the 125 Vdc buses and emergency power is provided to the valves by batteries. The RCGV System is designed to maintain a vent path after a single failure of any single valve or its power source. This design feature satisfies the requirements of GDC 17 and GDC 34.

APPLICABLE SAFETY ANALYSES The RCGV function provides a safety grade method of RCS depressurization that is credited during natural circulation. The operator uses the SI System, the pressurizer backup heaters, and the RCGV function to control RCS inventory and subcooling. The pressurizer vent line is 5.0 cm (2.0 in) nominal diameter to meet the requirement to vent one-half the RCS volume in one hour.

Safety I&C System KEPCO & KHNP 100 Qualified Indication and Alarm System - P 4.5 4.5.1 Functions The QIAS-P provides a continuous display of RG1.97, Rev. 4 AMI variables (Types A, B and C) and an unambiguous indication of the approach to and the recovery from ICC as a backup to the safety parameter display system (SPDS). The recording function for Type A, B and C variables is performed in the IPS.

The QIAS-P calculates representative core exit temperature, primary coolant subcooling margins, and reactor vessel water level.

The QIAS-P provides output signals to the QIAS-P display via the SDN, to the MTP for the IPS (via unidirectional Ethernet datalink), and to the ITP for the QIAS-N (via the SDL). In all cases, these output signals are for display of sensor signals, ICC variables, and AMI variables.

The QIAS-P provides a backup for the SPDS for ICC variables. The SPDS is implemented in the SPADES+ application in the IPS.

8SRQUHFHLSWRIWKHDQDORJDQGGLJLWDOVLJQDOVthe QIAS-P performs signal checking. The QIAS-P displays are a major part of the overall MCR information system used for accident monitoring. The QIAS-P configuration is presented in Figure 4-19.

4.5.2 Design Features The QIAS-P has two divisionalized cabinets. The QIAS-P cabinet for each division is located in the divisionalized I&C equipment room. The QIAS-P receives AMI variables from the PPS and ESF-CCS via the SDN; and APC-S and process instrumentation via hard-wired connection. The QIAS-P also displays the status of &,9s from both QIAS-P divisions. The status of the other QIAS-P division &,9VDUH obtained from the ITP through the interdivisional SDL.

4.5.2.1 Calculation The QIAS-P processes the AMI variables (Types A, B and C) as determined from RG 1.97, Rev.4, for accident monitoring guidelines.

The QIAS-P calculates representative core exit temperature from the core exit thermocouples (CETs).

The QIAS-P calculates primary coolant subcooling margins based on CET temperatures, hot and cold leg temperatures, heated junction thermocouple (HJTC) temperatures from the reactor vessel head region, and pressurizer pressure. The QIAS-P calculates reactor vessel level from the top of the core to the top of the reactor vessel (based on the signals from the HJTCs). The HJTCs are discrete level measurements throughout the height of the reactor vessel. Liquid uncovery of an HJTC is determined by the temperature difference between the heated and unheated thermocouple pair at a specific height location in the reactor vessel.

The FPD displays SURYLGHEDFNXSGLVSOD\\VIRUWKH,&&YDULDEOHVSHU185(*-0737. The primary displays of ICC variables are implemented in the SPADES+ of the IPS.

Each FPD allows the operator to select the pages that display either:

ICC variables The QIAS-P displays output an unambiguous indication in accordance with Style Guide (Reference 16).

The following ICC variables are calculated and validated using an algorithm executed by the QIAS-P PLC processor, and are displayed on the QIAS-P displays in the MCR.

x Primary coolant saturation margin (temperatures calculated from RTDs, HJTCs, CETs and PZR pressure) x Coolant temperature at the core exit (calculated from CETs) x Coolant level in the reactor vessel above the top of the core (calculated from HJTCs) 4.5.2.3 MTP Functions The QIAS-P allows signal substitution for failed HJTC values, signal bypass for abnormal values by operator decision. The QIAS-P allows setpoint changes for ICC calculation parameters by the operator through the MTP to prevent software modifications for simple changes to the system. These functions are manually initiated from the MTP under administrative control.

4.5.2.4 Power Supply Power distribution is assigned such that the loss of a single vital instrument power bus does not result in the loss of more than one QIAS-P division. Loss of electrical power to a QIAS-P FPD display results in a blank screen. The loss of electrical power to one QIAS-P controller processor results in an indication of an inactive state on the QIAS-P displays.
