Nine Mile Point Unit 2 SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) letter dated December 22, 1980, to Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation (NMPC) contained NUREG 0612, Control of Heavy Loads at Nuclear Power Plants. This letter requested NMPC to review the control for handling heavy loads to determine the extent to which general guidelines were addressed and to identify changes and modifications that would be required to satisfy these guidelines.

The information presented in this report is a summary of the heavy loads analysis of Unit 2. The concerns of the NRC staff as defined in NUREG 0612 have been specifically addressed in Section 3. The objective of NUREG 0612 to provide a maximum practical "defense-in-depth" approach to reduce risk involved in load-handling failures remains an ongoing objective of NMPC.

Section 8. 2 of this report provides a comparison and evaluation of the differences between the Unit 2 polar crane and NUREG 0554.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 SECTION 2 BASIS OF REVIEW A heavy load has been defined by NUREG 0612 as any weight greater than the combined weight of a single spent fuel assembly and its associated handling tool.

This report uses "greater than 1,000 pounds" as a basis for determining "heavy load." The actual weight for the spent fuel assembly and its associated handling tool is 1,129 pounds. In the area of the reactor and spent fuel pool, all loads which are hoisted and handled were investigated. This report does not address temporary rigging/load handling systems which are erected as needed during the course of normal plant maintenance; these are controlled by administrative procedures in accordance with NUREG 0612.

The general guidelines identified in NUREG 0612 were used as a basis for this review.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 SECTION 3 RESULTS OF REVIEW

/

The results of the, review are listed as direct responses to of the NRC's December 22, 1980, letter. For convenience the NRC requested information is repeated, followed by NMPC's response.

The following format corresponds point by point to Enclosure 3 of the NRC's letter:

2. INFORMATION REQUESTED FROM LICENSEE 2.1 General Requirements for Overhead Handling Systems NUREG 0612," Section 5.1.1, , identifies several general guidelines related to the design and operation of overhead load-handling systems in the areas where spent fuel is stored, in the vicinity of the reactor core, and in other area of the plant where a load drop could result in damage to equipment required for safe shutdown or decay heat removal. Information provided in response to this section should identify the extent of potentially hazardous load-handling operations at a site and the extent of conformance to appropriate load-handling guidance.

2.1-1 Re uested Information Report the results of your review of plant arrangements to identify all overhead handling systems from which a load drop may result in damage to any system required for plant shutdown or decay heat removal (taking no credit for any interlocks, technical specifications, operating procedures, or detailed structural analysis).

~Res orise This study included a systematic review of all permanent cranes', monorails, and hoists

'ntended for use at Unit 2. The overhead handling systems,.from which load drops may

', result in damage to a system required for plant shutdown or decay heat removal, are listed in Table 3-1.

3-1

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 2.1-2 Re uested Information s

Justify the exclusion of any overhead handling system from the above category by verifying that there is sufficient physical separation from any load-impact point and any safety-related component to permit a determination by inspection that no heavy load drop can result in damage to any system or component. required for plant shutdown or decay heat removal.

~Res onse The overhead handling systems, which have been excluded from this study, are listed in Table 3-2. The specific justification for excluding each system is noted.

~ Re uested Information 6

With respect to the design and operation of heavy-load handling systems in the reactor building and those load-handling systems identified in Item 2. 1-1, provide your evaluation concerning compliance with the guidelines of NUREG 0612, Section 5.1.1. The following specific information should be included in your reply:

a.. Drawings or sketches sufficient to clearly identify the location of safe load'aths, safety-related equipment.

spent fuel, and

~Res onse See Section 5 for drawings which define safe load paths and show safety-related equipment.

b. A discussion of measures taken to ensure that load-handling operations remain within safe load paths, including procedures, if any, for deviation from these paths.

3-2

Nine Mile Point, Unit 2

~Res onse Safe load paths will be referenced in procedures and shown on'quipment layout drawings. Ioad paths will not be marked on the floor in the area where the load is to be handled. There are 10 to 15 load paths for the reactor building operating floor. Ioad paths would be confusing and overlapped by other load paths. There are limit switches on the reactor building polar crane (RBPC) to limit movement of heavy loads over the spent fuel pool. Most of the other cranes discussed in Item 2. 1-1 are mono'rail which inherently define the load path.

I c ~ The tabulation of heavy loads to be handled by each crane which includes the load identification, load weight, its

designated lifting device, and verification that the handling of such load is governed by a written procedure containing, as a minimum, the information identified in NUREG 0612, Section 5.1.2(2).

~Res onse See Tables 3-3, 3-4, and 3-5, for tabulation of heavy loads handled by cranes, hoists, and monorails. The procedures will comply with NUREG 0612 Section 5.1.1(2), except that the safe load paths are not marked on the floors.

These procedures will be available for onsite review.

d. ~ Verification that lifting devices identified in Item 2.1-3c comply with the requirements of ANSI N14.6-1978, or ANSI B30.9-1971 as appropriate. For lifting devices where these standards, as supplemented by NUREG 0612, Section
5. 1. 1(4) or 5. 1. 1(5) are not met, describe- any proposed alternatives and

-demonstrate'their equivalency in terms of load-handling reliability.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 SECTION 4 HAZARD ELIMINATION TABLE Table 4-1 lists the potential impact where damage might occur to safety-related equipment upon a heavy load drop.

1. Hazard Elimination Categories
a. Crane travel for this area/load combination is prohibited bQ electrical interlocks or mechanical stops.
b. System redundancy and separation precludes loss of capability of system to perform its safety-related function following this load drop in this area.

C. Site-specific considerations eliminate the need to consider load/equipment combination. (See comment at bottom of Table 4-1 for detailed explanation of the use of this category.)

Likelihood of handling system failure for this load is extremely small (i.e., Section 5.1.6, NUREG 0612 satisfied).

e. Analysis demonstrates that crane failure and load drop will not damage safety-related equipment.

Load is handled only in shutdown condition.

Safety-related components under the load paths are already inoperative due to plant conditions and/or maintenance requirements. Their failure does not prevent safe shutdown conditions from being maintained.

,Nine Mil'e Point Unit 2 SECTION 8 VERIFICATION OF CRANE DESIGN F 1 INTRODUCTION The . reactor building polar crane (RBPC) has been designed for, Class Al .standby service in accordance with Crane Manufacturers'ssociation of America (CMAA) Specification No. 70 and the mandatory requirements of ANSI B30.20 in addition to the technical requirements of SWEC Specification No. NMP2-251P ~ The RBPC is seismic Category I. The crane is designed for the following rated loads:

~

~

~

No. 1 Auxiliary Hoist No. 2 Auxiliary Hoist No 3 Main Hoist

~

'/2-ton 25-ton 125-ton

~ Crane Trolley 125-ton

~ , Crane Bridge 125-ton The main hoist is designed to provide a dual loading path so that the single-failure of, any. component shall not result in loss of the lifted load. The single-failure system criteria also applies to the hoist electrical system. The hoist motor is a 75 hp dc'shunt motor. The alternating power supply is rectified to supply the motor with dc power. The dc hoist controls are provided with phase loss and phase reversal protection.

The redundant main hoist system consists of a dual path through the hoist gear train,- the reeving system, and the hoist load block along with restraints at critical points to provide load. retention and to minimize uncontrolled motions of the load upon failure of any single hoise component. The system includes the complete gear trains connecting the hoist motor to the hoist drum, while the main hook is used for handling the spent fuel cask; positive interlocks are provided which prevent the transfer path of the cask to be over the spent fuel storage pool but still allow the hook to lower the cask into its proper position in the spent fuel loading pool.

The auxiliary hoists also have positive interlocks which prevent their transfer paths to be over the spent fuel storage pool. Overrides of these interlocks will be covered by special administrative procedures. The auxiliary hoists can also be placed. in operable modes by use of key-operated selector positions. The operating modes of these hoists will also be controlled by administrative procedures.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 8.2 DIFFERENCES BETWEEN UNIT 2 DESIGN AND NUREG 0554 A thorough evaluation was made between the RBPC design features and those recommended in NUREG 0554. The RBPC main hoist as designed contains all the major safety features recommended by NUREG 0554 to quality as single- failure proof. The following section provides a detailed summary of the differences between the RBPC design and NUREG 0554 recommendations.

The significant differences between the Unit 2 design and NUREG 0554 are as follows:

a. NUREG Section 2.2 requires a 15-percent design margin for wear-susceptible components.

Evaluation All wear susceptible components, except the lifting eye thrust bearing have greater than a 15 percent design margin. - The lifting eye thrust bearing has a 4 percent design margin. However, failure of this component will not result in a load drop.

b. NUREG Section 2.4 specifies impact tests for materials over 1/2 in. The specification requires impact tests for materials over 5/8-in thick.

Evaluation ASME 'Section III, NC-2300, requires impact tests for materials greater than 5/8-in thick; the Unit 2 specification is consistent with this requirement.

c. NUREG Section 4.1 specifies a cable safety factor of 10 to 1 dynamic. The specification requires a cable safety factor of 10 to 1 static.

,Evaluation The dynamic safety factor of the crane when considering the maximum critical load (MCJ) to be 120 tons is slightly under 9.6 to 1. This conservative design more than surpasses requirements to sustain the dynamic effects of load transfer due to the loss of one of the two independent rope systems. An ample design margin will still exist in the remaining rope system of eight parts supporting the load..

8-2

Nine Mile Point Unit 2

d. NUREG Section 4.3 specifies load attachment points to be designed:for three times the load to be handled, static plus dynamic. The specification requires the load attachment points to be designed for three times the static load to be handled.

'Evaluation A design factor margin study and a main hoist load block design study were made to verify the safety of the RBPC design. For the main hoist load blocks study the structural components were reviewed for a 138-ton load (MCL plus 15 percent). The resulting stresses were less than 1/3 the minimum yield strength of the respective materials.

e. NUREG Section 4.6 specifies that lift beams and lifting devices be designed for three times the load, static plus dynamic. The specification requires three times the static load.

Evaluation The lifting rigs and sling assemblies were designed

',three times the static load times 1.05. The calculated for

,. stresses were less than the minimum yield strength of the respective materials. See Section 6 for further details on the design of these devices.

NUREG Section 5.1 specifies the bridge speed not, to

'exceed the slow recommendation of CMAA, which is 50 ft/min. The Unit 2 crane's bridge span is designed to be 75 ft/min.

Evaluation The RBPC design includes crane bridge inching motors with a speed of 2 ft/min. The 75 ft/min normal operating speed satisfies the moderate speed recommendation of CMAA-70. With these features the intent of NUREG 0554 is met.

g. NUREG Section 8.5 specifies that the MCL be marked on the crane. The specification uses maximum working load (MWL).

Evaluation The MCL will be identified on the RBPC.

8-3

Nine Mile Point Unit 2

h. NUREG Section'.0 specifies that the operating manual give the margin 'for degradation of wear-susceptible components.

Evaluation This is an administrative requirement which will be covered in the Inspection Procedures detailed in Section 7.- These procedures will be in compliance with ANSI B30.2.0.

NUREG Section 10.0 specifies that crane operator qualification be addressed.

Evaluation

~

Section 9 covers crane operator qualifications.

'I 8.3 RBPC LOSS OF POWER AND FAILURE MODES AND EFFECTS ANALYSIS With regard to the NRC's December 19, 1983, Clarification to Generic Letter 81-07, concerning electrical circuitry and phase loss of a single-failure proof crane, the dc hoist controls of the Unit 2 reactor building polar crane, Mark No. 2MHR-CRN1, are specifically provided with phase loss protection as well as phase reversal protection.

Inherently, the crane's dc hoist controls are provided with a fail-safe design such that power is removed from the hoist motor and the holding brakes applied upon any of the following contingencies:

~ Opening of an ac phase

~ Loss of ac fuses

~ Loss of voltage

~ *Loss of regenerative power capability

~ Loss of motor field Loss of dc fuse Additionally, the crane's dc hoist controls are provided with a torque check, which prevents the hoist holding brakes from being released until the motor field is energized and armature current, is flowing.

8.4 CRANES OTHER THAN RBPC

a. Cranes 2MHR-CRN3, 2MHR-CRN4, and 2MHS-CRN7 were designed so that the trolleys ,and crane bridges cannot be "

dislodged during an earthquake, in combination with SRV

Provide information and a discussion of grid availability, including the frequency, duration, and causes of outages as required by R.G. 1.70.

RESPONSE

NMPC's records indicate that there has been one trip of the Nine Mile-Volney No. 9 line since its original energization, occurring on May 17, 1983, at 10:41 am. Power was restored immediately, and the cause is unknown. There are no records on any other lines because these lines in and out of Scriba Station are new and have no record of operation. A.

study performed on the central region (including the Unit 2 transmission system) of the NMPC service area has shown 58 trips on 6,100 year-miles of 345-kV lines over a 15-yr period. This results in 0 '095 unplanned trips per mile per

'year."""'"These.:-.trips"include.~l .unplanned events, including the following:

1. Lighting strikes.
2. Equipment failures.
3. System disturbances.

It should be noted that the from all unplanned sources is experienced trip rate (0.0095) less than the design value for lighting strikes of 0.0117 unplanned trips per mile per

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR QUESTION F430.8 (SRP App 8A)

Regarding the degraded voltage condition and undervoltage relays discussed in FSAR Section 8.2.2:

a. You state that 517.5 V (90 percent of the motor 1.13 nameplate voltage of 575 V) is required at the 600 V 1.14 buses to ensure proper starting and running of all Class lE motors. Since 90 percent is the motor rated 1. 15 voltage for continuous operation, the additional voltage 1. 16 drop from the 600 V buses to the motor terminals will result in the motors operating at less than their 1. 17 continuous . rated voltage. Justify this condition. 1.18 Likewise, justify the capability to start 80% rated NSSS 1.19 and MOV motors with only 80% of the motor rated voltage 1.20 up at the buses.
b. You state that from the voltage profile study the grid 1.21 voltage needed to maintian adequate station voltages at 1.22 the lowest tap of the load tap changer (ZTC) is below 1.23 the normal operating range of the grid. Is this the 1.24 worst case condition? Since the sensing for the LTC is 1.25 on the 13.8 KV system, is there a lightly loaded 13.8 KV 1.26 condition which would result in the LTC being on a higher tap and consequently worse 4.16 KV voltages?

Also, provide the results of your analysis for the 1.27 opposite condition, i.e., heavily loaded 13.8 KV system '.28 and lightly loaded 4.16 KV system resulting in 4.16 KV 1.29 system overvoltages.

c ~ You state that, when the auxiliary boiler transformer is 1.30 supplying the onsite emergency power distribution system 1.31 and the grid . is at its normal operating minimum, the 1.32 voltage at the 600 V buses under the most severe load conditions is 460 V (80 percent of 575 V). Per the 1.33 discussion in item (a) above justify the capability to start NSSS and MOV motors and to operate continuously 1.34 all Class 1E motors at this low voltage.

d. Extend your analysis to include all Class 1E equipment 1.35 (not just motors) down to the 120/208 and 120/240 volt 1.36 levels, and provide t:he Class 1E bus voltage profiles 1.37 for, steady state and t'.ransient conditions.
e. Provide a detailed description of your second level 1.38 undervoltage relay design, including setpoints; and 1.39 address each position of SRP Branch Technical Position PSB-1.

RcVIsEO lNQRbl46 Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR tern voltage fluctuations of 120.75 kV (105 percent) to 109.25 kV (95 percent) and secondary load fluctuations. The 4.16-kV tertiary winding voltage fluctuates in accordance with the foregoing selected tap position, primary voltage variation, and/or 4.16-kV emergency switchgear bus load condition.

The Class 1E motors are capable of starting at 75 percent 'n're:.; 0 and running at 90 percent of their rated voltage. The maximum permissible voltage drop between the 4.16-kV emergency bus and the connected load under normal running condition is 20 V, while that during motor starting is 60 V.

The maximum permissible voltage drop between 600-V emergency load center buses and their connected loads under normal operating conditions is 12 V; for the motor control centers, this is generally broken up as 4 V between the load center and the motor control center (MCC) and 8 V between the MCC and the motors. However, for MCC feeders having longer ca-ble lengths, the voltage drops from 600-V load centers to the MCC and from the MCC to the motor are redistributed within the framework of the total voltage drop limitation of 12 V. The voltage profile study of the plant electrical power distribution system- shows that with the preceding criteria for the permissible voltage drops, the minimum voltage that will ensure proper starting and running of all Class 1E motors at the 4.16-kV and 600-V level are: 1) 460 V (80 percent of the motor name plate voltage of 575 V) at 600.-V buses during the most severe motor starting condition at the 4.16-kV bus with the 4.16-kV bus loaded, and

2) 517.5-V (90 percent of the motor name plate voltage of 575 V) at the 600-V buses under full load condition of the 4.16-kV bus.

a From the voltage profile study, minimum 115-kV system voltage that it is observed that the will satisfy these con-ditions is 98 kV (85 percent of 115 kV) at the lowest tap of the ETC (103.5 kV). This is below the normal operating range of the 115-kV system (109.25 kV or 95 percent to 120.75 kV or 105 percent). The emergency onsite ac power distribution system undervoltage relays are set accordingly to prevent degraded voltage conditions of the offsite power sources from affecting site operating conditions.

From the case the voltage profile study it is also observed that in onsite emergency power distribution system is fed through the auxiliary boiler transformer, the minimum 115-kV system voltage that will provide at least 460 V (80 percent of 575 V) at 600-V buses und'er the most severe load eon-.'

jtion is 109.25 kV (95 percent of 115 kV).

,'The avai'lability. on, demand of an emergency diesel generator is dependent upon, among other things, the proper functioning of its controls and monitoring instrumentation.

This equipment is generally panel mounted and in some instances the panels are mounted directly on= the diesel generator skid. Major diesel engine damage has occurred at some operating plants from vibration induced wear on skid mounted control and monitoring instrumentation. This sensitive instrumentation is not,made to withstand and function accurately for prolonged periods under. continuous vibrational stresses normally encountered with internal combustion engines ..Operation of sensitive instrumentation under this environment rapidly deteriorates calibration, accuracy, and control signal output.

Therefore, except for sensors and other equipment that must be.directlymounted.on the.,engine or associated piping, the

In FSAR Sections 1.8 and 8.3.1.3.1, you state that cables are marked at 15 ft. intervals. The requirement for marking

'cables at 5 ft,...intervals in Regulatory Guide 1.75 is not a typographical error. The mark'g interval is specif'd as 5 ft. in both the 1975 and 1978 vers'ns of the Regulatory Guide. Therefore, justify the wider marking interval used at Nine Mile Point Unit 2. Also, ve ify that raceways are marked, prior to installation of cables, not exceeding 15 ft. intervals and at entry to and exiting from enclosed areas in accordance with IEEE 384-1974.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR QUESTION F430.22 (SRP 8.1, 8.3.1)

In the d'cussion of electrical isolation in Section 8.3.1.4.1 you.state that whenever a safety-related powe o" control circuit is connected with any norsafety-related circuit, appropriate isolation devices are used.

D'scuss what you consider an appropriate isolat'on device for a powe circuit. In accordance with Regulato"y Guide 1.75 a circuit breaker tripped on a COCA signal is an acceptable isolation device. For the 600 V emergency lighting panels 2 LAC*PNK100A and 300B and their loads,1E identify which portions of the system are qualified Class and which a e. not and identify the isolation devices used between the Class 1E and non-1E portions. Since these panels feed other crit'cal Class 1E safety related loads, the panels themselves should not be tripped on a IOCA signal.

R"SPONSE 4I See revised Sections 8.3.1.4.1 and 8.3.1.1.2.

755 The response to,this question does not address how the emergency lighting circuits are isolated from the Class lE system. The

... l,ighting,fixtures. are not qualified. Class 1E, therefore, they must have isolation. 'n acceptable -isolation means are two overcurrent devices- in...series bothcoordinated with the. upstream, bus feeder overcurrent device.

~yhEQ wQRDlNG Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR 8.3.'1.4.1 Electrical Isolation c The three divisions of the plant onsite power system are

. electrically independent of each other. This independence is maintained through the loads the divisions feed; each d'vision feeds a separate load group and there is no chance of interconnecting independent divisions through the loads.

Each division has its dedicated standby power source that is independent of the standby power source of any othex division. There is no provision for paxalleling the standby power sources of different divisions or for ,using the standby power source of one division to feed 'the loads of any other division. Each division uses its own control power sources for instrumentation and control, and the con-trol powex source of each 'division is independent of the control power of any other division. There is no pxovision for interconnecting these control power sources or for feeding the control circuits of one division from the con-trol power sources of any other division.

Each division is also isolated from the associated.

nonsafety-related systems. Whenever a safety-xelated powe'x or control circuit is connected with any nonsafety-related circuit, appropriate isolation devices as defined in Regulatory Guide 1.75 and IEEE 384 are used. Nonsafyty powex loads are not fed from safety buses except the stub

R:"SPONSOR See revised Sect'on 8.3.2.1.2.

PSB COMMENTS

a. The maximum battery terminal voltage indicated on FSAR page

'8.3-'"'57 for the"division III batteries:is 2.5 volts higher (137.5 V vs 1.35 V) than the maximum operating voltage of the loads. Denenstrate how a 2.5 volt drop to the terminals of the loads is ma'intained at light load and maximum voltage while no more than a 2.5 volt drop is maintained during heavy load and minimum voltage (battery voltage 112.5 V vs load voltage 110 V). There a1so appears to be a discrepancy between the Ntaximum battery voltage (137.5 V) indicated on FSAR page 8.3-57 and that indicated on page 8.3-58 (2.33 V/cell X 60 ~ 139.8).

Resolve this discrepancy.

c The division III bus low voltag alarm setting of 112.5 V

$s not set sufficiently high to act as a battery discharge alarm. A battery low voltage alarm set at 123-125 V dc or a separate discharge alarm should be provided.

RESPONSE

The division III batteries are floated at 2.22V/Cell (133.2Vdc) to minimize the periodic equalization of the batteries. Mhenever equalization is required, the vendor recommends equalizing at 2.28-2.29 Volts/Cell (137.4Vdc). The normal operating voltage range of the dc loads is 110 to 135Vdc, which is maintained by battery float voltage of 133.2 volts. However, during equalization state (137.4Vdc) and lightly loaded conditions, the voltage drop in the circuit brings the voltage at the load terminals the operating range. For the low voltage and'heavy load condi ion, the dc bus~ voltage is. expected to be about 120 V or.. above. The lo voltage condition will be annunciated in the control room whe ever the bus voltage drops below 120Vdc .

3. Each emergency battery is sized in accordance with

' Regulatory Guide 1.32, IEEE-308-1974, and IEEE-'485-'1978. It is'apable of performing its duty cycle (Tables 8.3-8 through 8.3-10) following the loss of chargers after the battery had been floated between .130, and 135 V dc, is fully charged at 65 F, < and with capacity deteriorated to 80 percen : Adequate design margin is included in sizing the battery to support future load growth

~ and; less.-than-,optimum operating, conditions. Should both battery chargers for any particular battery be out of service at any point in the dc load cycle, the battery is capable of starting and operating its associated loads for 2 hr according to a precalculated load profile without the battery ter-minal voltage falling below 105 V dc.

Each emergency dc bus has a primary and a backup battery charger. Each emergency battery charger is capable of supplying the largest combined demands of the steady-state loads on the battery while recharging the battery from the design minimum charge state to the fully charged state within 24 hr.

Nine Mile Point. Unit 2 FSAR QUESTION F430.35 (SRP 8.3.1, 8.3.2)

Recent experience with nuclear power plant Class 1E motor-

,.ope ated valve motors has shown that in some instances the motor winding on the valve operator could fail when the valve is subjected to frequent cycling. This is primarily due to the limited duty cycle of the motor. Provide the required duty cycle of the ECCS and RCIC, steam and water line motor operated isolation valves as they relate to their respective system modes of operation during various events.

Demonstrate that the availability of the safety systems in the Nine Mile Point Unit 2 design will not'e compromised

.,-due to the limited duty cycle. of the valve. operator motors.

RESPONSE

The frecpxent cycling of ECCS motor-operated valves (MOVs) is ended after the first hour of a I.OCA or transient" event by ope ator action. , In this hour, the maximum expected duty

~ 'ycle.,of 'any"<<HPCS.'.isolation'va'lve is 5 strokes open and 5 strokes, closed, or 10 cycles (energized to deenergized) .

~

This expected duty cycle is less than the allowable for any of the HPCS valves.'. During normal operation> ".the ECCS MOVs are expected to open and close up to two times during monthly testing, well with'n their allowable duty cycling.

For the <<low-pressure~ECCS and,RCIC, MOVs, a. response'will be provided by June 1984.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR QUESTION F430.36 (SRP 8.3)

Operating experience at certain nuclear power plants which have two cycle turbocharged diesel engines manufactured by the Electromotive Division (EMD) of General Motors driving emergency generators have experienced a significant number of turbocharger mechanical gear drive failures. The failures .have occurred as the result of running the emergency diesel generators at no load or "light load conditions for extended periods. No load or light load operation, could occur during periodic equipment testing or during, accident conditions with . availability of offsite power. When this equipment is, operated under no load conditions insufficient exhaust gas volume is -

generated to operate the turbocharger. As a result the turbocharger is driven mechanically from a gear drive in order to supply enough combustion air to the engine to maintain rated speed.

The turbocharger and mechanical drive gear normally supplied l,-.--.-..<<c"~with ...these ,.engines..are, no~designed for standby service

~

encountered, in nuclear, power; plant application where the.

equipment may be called upon to operate at no load or light load condition and full rated speed for a prolonged period.

The EMD equipment was originally designed for locomotive service where no load speeds for the engine and generator are much lower than full load speeds. The locomotive turbocharged diesel. hardly ever runs at full speed except at full "load; """The ":EMD'";has strongly-'recommended to users of this diesel engine design against operation at no load or light load conditions at full rated speed for extended periods because of the short, life expectancy of the turbocharger mechanical gear drive unit normally furnished.

No load or light load .operation also causes general deterioration in any diesel engine.

To cope with the-severe service the equipment is normally subjected to and in the interest of reducing failures and increasing the availability" of their equipment EMD has developed a heavy duty turbocharger driven gear unit that can, replace existing equipment. This is available as a replacement kit, or engines can be ordered with the heavy duty turbocharger drive gear assembly.

To assure optimum availability of emergency diesel generators on demand, applicant's who have in place, on order or intend to order emergency generators driven by two cycle diesel engines manufactured by EMD should be provided with the heavy duty turbocharger mechanical drive gear assembly as recommended by EMD for the class of service encountered in nuclear power plants. Confirm your

.compliance with this requirement. (SRP 8.3.1, Part III)

Earth day tank is isolated in a room enclosed by 3-hr rated fire barriers and protected, by automatic sprinkler systems.

Each diesel generator day tank room contains a curb sized to contain the 660-gal volumetric capacity of the fuel oil day tank in addition to an amount of fluid from the fire protection system (30 gal per minute per square foot for a 10-min period). This curb precludes spilling fuel oil into the diesel generator room. Each day tank room curb can be emptied into the diesel generator ,building floor and equipment drain system. Once fuel oil or cooling water accumulates in the floor drain sump (one sump per diesel generator division), a level switch monitors the quantity of fuel. oil or cooling water collected. This fluid is then dispersed to a common oil separator. In addition to the curb arrangement, a low-level storage tank alarm and a low-

-'"'level"day tank 'larm .-also,.alert the operators 'to the possibility of a fuel oil leak in the day tank room.

In summary, large leaks are detected by low-level alarms in the day tanks. Small leaks are detected by a shorter than normal cycle of the floor drain pumps.

The capped inlet of each storage tank fill line is located above the probable maximum flood level, thereby preventing the entrance of water. Each storage and day tank's vent pipe is also located above the flood level and is designed to prevent rain from entering.

The vacuum relief valve and pressure relief valve are within the diesel generator building which is designed for missile protection. The fuel oil day tank vent 1'ine is located in the diesel generator building day tank room and penetrates through the diesel generator building roof. In the event of a tornado missile accident resulting in the obstruction of the vent line, the fuel oil day tank is vented by a 4-in vacuum relief valve and a 4-in pressure relief valve mounted on the vent line.

NuChem Corporation Division St., P.O. Box 120 Boonton, New Jersey Or 005 201-334-8088 FC-101 FOR USE WITH DISTILLATE FUELS:

The petroleum refiners in preparing diesel fuel or ¹2 furnace oils add suf.

ficient stabilizer to the fuel to protect it during the summer months, or at least until it is delivered to the fuel oil dealer or the consumer. However, the amount of stabilizer added to the fuel oil is limited.

It is even more important to note that the refiner is not primarily concerned with tank rusting or tank failure from long term storage.

Water-soluble inhibitors interfere with the storage stability of the fuel, and should not be used.

ln order to keep stored fuel in "refinery fresh" condition, it is necessary that a supplementary inhibitor be added to the fuel.

"*" The advantag'es 'of the FC'-101'nhibitor where used routinely with distillate fuels are:

(1) Prevents tank failures due to rusting. It is estimated that an average lifetime for a fuel storage tank for distillate fuel is 5 to 10 years. The additive should extend this period to 10'to 20 years and indefinitely

,when treatment is started with a fresh tank.

(2) Less maintenance is required since the fuel is always in ready con.

dition for firing. The 'screens and .nozzles, require. less frequent cleanout on a continually= used basis'and,the jifetime of the, Fulflo filters is extended from one year to three years.

(3) Permits'savings in fuel costs by making it possible to substitute lower cost '¹2'fuel oil'n place of kerosene or diesel fuel.

To the above directly realizable economic advantages, one should consider the expenses that occur when a furnace is not operating correctty and loss of power results therefrom. Even if the inhibitor is viewed as a preventive pro-tection against potential failures, it provides a significant margin of safety.

USES WITH HEAVY FUEL OILS:

The FC-101 can also be used with <<4 fuel oils and residual fuel oils where advan-tage can be taken of its dispersing properties. It will prevent sedimentation as well as settle-out.

Residual fuels are manufactured today as, a cutback of still bottoms with cutter stock. There are strong tendencies for settle-out to occur. This can be prevented by the use of FC-101.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR the diesel generator building which is designed for missile prot'ection.

A sounding rod is utilized periodically to check the accuracy and operation of the tank level indicator by insertion into the sounding tube furnished in each storage and day tank. The possible accumulation of water at the bottom of each diesel fuel oil storage and day tank is also checked by applying a water-indicating paste to the sounding rod. The paste changes color when it comes in contact with water. Should the water level be excessive, water is removed from the storage tanks by the use of a portable pump and from the day tanks by opening a drain valve located near the bottom of each tank.

Adequate sources of diesel quality fuel oil are available in the cities of Oswego (8 mi), Belgium {25 mi), and Syracuse

{35 mi). Under extremely unfavorable environmental condi-tions, fuel oil will be delivered onsite via tanker truck

.',escorted by highway .snow..removal.,equipment.

This will permit each standby diesel generator system to supply uninterrupted emergency power. Fuel oil meets or exceeds the qualit re irements of ASTN D975-1978 and the diesel engine manufacturer s recommendaBons.

The growth of algae in the fuel oil storage tank is determined by measuring the oxidative stability in accordance with ASTM D2274-74. If it is more than 2 mg/100 ml,'he fuel oil in the affected storage tank will be appropriately treated (filtration.,or biocides) to reduce the level to acceptable -concentrations.

9.5.4.4 Inspection and Testing Requirements The standby diesel generator fuel oil storage and transfer system is designed to permit periodic inspection and maintenance of active components.. Local display and indicating devices are provided for periodic inspection of tank oil level and operating parameters such as pump discharge pressure and pressure drop across each fuel oil strainer.

The fill generator of each tank extends below the diesel mat beyond the exterior wall line, thereby positioning the tank fill line, and vent line outside the building. Each line, sounding storage tank is filled from its own tank truck

,station located in the .yard. The storage tanks are fill constructed with baffles, 10 reinforcement stiffeners, 4 reinforcement rings, and 15-degree off-center drains to minimize turbulence within the tanks during filling. The 4-in. fill three divisional fuel oil storage tanks are located lines for the 51 ft 3 in. and 55 ft 3 in. from the first and second pump suctions, respectively. Seven 3/4 in. x 8 in. stiffener rings are evenly spaced between the fill line and,,the first pump suction..in.

the Division I and II fuel oil storage tanks. Five, 3/4 in. x 8 in. stiffener rings are evenly spaced, between the fill, line and the first pump suction in the Division III fuel oil storage tank. Since the fill line and pump suctions are located on opposite ends...of...each...storage,....tank,, sediment agitated between the stiffeners during filling will not fill affect the pump suction inlets. The separate lines are capped when not in use and are each provided with a locked-closed isolation valve and a strainer capable of filtering out sediment. Minor stirring of the sediment may occur. in the fuel oil storage tank when fuel oil is recirculated through the 2-in. fuel oil day tank overflow line. For all divisions, the overflow line is located 3 ft 10 in.

and 7 ft 10 in. from the first and second pump suctions, respectively. Two 3/4 in. x 8 in.

stiffener rings are located in the vicinity of the two pump suctions., These stiffener rings, along with the fuel oil pump stabilizer assembly, minimize any turbulent effects around the pump suctions. .Each storage tank also has a manhole for maintenance access from within the diesel generator Amendment 9.5-23a December 1983

Al-though ANSI Standard N195-1976 recommends the use of duplex strainers in diesel fuel oil systems, one simplex strainer per pump accomplishes the same intent. One simplex strainer and its associated fuel oil transfer pump may be taken out of service for maintenance; this occurs subsequent to an alarm or control room annunciation indicating that'he pressure drop across the strainer exceeds an alarm set point. Since each fuel oil pump is redundant and is capable of automatically starting after an associated pump failure, maintenance on the strainer will not discontinue the normal flow of fuel oil to that diesel.

3. Three diesel fuel oil day tanks, one for each diesel engine. Each day tank- is located in the day tank room above the engine generator control panel room of its associated diesel generator. The elevated location of the tank provides adequate net positive suction head (NPSH) to the engine-driven fuel pump of the diesel engine. Each day tank is supplied with a manhole for maintenance access, external vent, a sounding tube for manual con-

'n firmation of fuel oil level, and an overflow for returning excess fuel oil to the fuel line

. oil storage tank.

Even though each fuel oil transfer, pump..is capable of sup-plying the maximum fuel demand of a standby diesel generator, each duplex set of fuel oil transfer pumps is in its respective day tank falls to the pump-on level oil

.controlled to start"together, automatically;" when fuel and stops automatically when fuel oil rises to the pump-off level. Fuel oil from the day tank flows by gravity to the suction of the engine-driven fuel pump which boosts the pressure to that required by the fuel injection header. For the two standby diesel generators, fuel. oil is supplied to the engine-driven booster pump and to the standby booster pump through a four-element duplex strainer:

The four-element duplex strainer is located on the base of the engine. Four shells with cleanable type wire mesh elements are attached to a common manifold. A control valve in the center of the manifold. permits flow to two elements on; either side of the valve, or to all four .elements.- Nor-mal operating position of the valve exists with two elements in operation and two elements in standby.

When the alarm oc-curs at 5 psi differential, an operator turns the valve han-dle to clean the elements that were in operation while placing the two standby elements into operation.

The engine-driven booster pump is located on the left side of the engine and is driven off the back of the jacket water pump drive at 1750 rpm. Pump output at full speed is ap-proximately 12.5 gpm at 50 psig.

The standby booster pump is mounted on the left side of the engine near the filters and strainers and is driven by a 1-hp motor at 1800 rpm. Oil is circulated at 12.5 gpm I 50 psig. The pump starts and primes the engine-driven pump when the start signal is given for the engine to start. The pump stops from a speed signal given from the engine. The pump also starts if fuel pressux e in the main header at the

-+ low'pressure.'control downstream of, .the engine-driven pump falls to 25 psi. A relief valve set at 50 psi directs oil from the pump outlet back to the inlet side. A bypass line and a check valve around this pump allow the main pump to pick up fuel from the main header.

A 50-psi relief valve and a 35-psi relief valve in the booster pumps'ischarge lines regulate...the supply to the fuel pumps. A four-element duplex filter ensures clean fuel to the pumps and nozzles.

Duplex fuel filters are located beside the- strainers on the engine and are alike except for =the. elements. Fuel oil is filtered just prior to entering the engine supply header. A differential pressure indicator and alarm monitor this

-'filter" with an~annunciator.,on .the unit. control panel. When the alarm occurs at 10 psi differential, the operator will place the other filter in service and xeplace the other filter.

Fuel injection nozzle injects high pressure fuel from the pump into the cylinder. Because of the timing of the fuel pump, this fuel is released in the cylinder during the com-pression stroke. Spray holes in the tip of the nozzle atomize the fuel into a very fine mist in a symmetrical pattern. This mist mixes with the air in the cylinder to form a combustible mixture. This mixture is then ignited by the heat of compression caused by the piston compressing the air and fuel in the cylinder.,

Fuel oil supply pressure, after the filter, is indicated by a pressure indicator on the engine gauge panel. A 1:1 ratio relay transmits a signal to another pressure indicator on the unit control panel located in the diesel generator con-trol room to indicate fuel oil pressure at the end of the injection pump fuel heater. A low-pressure alarm switch set.

at 10 psig in the supply header announces a low supply pres-sure on the unit panel.

A small shell-tube fuel oil cooler located on the end of the engine cools the fuel oil that is bypassed by the 35-psi relief valve.

The .-fuel oil cooler is. located on the front of the engine below the engine-driven lube oil pump and is primarily required to, cool oil bypassed by the 35-psi relief valve when the engine is running at idle speed. The cooler will handle 6 gpm of fuel on the shell side and ll gpm of water on the tube side. Fuel entering at 170 F will exit at 125 F using 100 F water at full capacity.

The fuel system for the high pressure core spray diesel

, generator is similar .to the fuel, system for . the standby diesel generators as described above.

Fuel oil is supplied tothe,.engine-mounted. fuel, pump from.,

the fuel oil day tank by gravity flow. Fuel under low pres-sure then passes through a 10-psi relief valve and the filter,.elements,to the, fuel manifold supply line and injec-tor inlet filter at each cylinder into the injector. A small portion of this fuel supplied to each injector is pumped into the cylinder at very high pressure through the needle .valve and spray tip.of the injector. The quantity of fuel injected depends upon the rotative position of the .

plunger as set by the injector rack. and the governor.

The-excess fuel not used by the "inje"tor -flows through the in-jector serving to lubricate and coal the working parts.

The fuel leaves the injector through the return fuel filter.

From the return fuel filter in the injector, the excess fuel, passes through the fuel return line in the manifold to the relief valve inlet of the "return fuel" through a swing check valve. This relief valve restricts the return fuel,

-maintaining a 'back pressure on the injectors. The swing check valve prevents reversal of flow and .siphoning. The Amendment 7 9.5-24b December 1983

Earth day tank is isolated in a room enclosed by 3-hr rated fire barriers and protected by automatic sprinkler systems.

Each diesel generator day tank room contains a curb sized to contain the 660-gal volumetric capacity of the fuel oil day tank in addition to an amount of fluid from the fire protection system (30,.gal per minute per square foot for a 10-min period). This curb precludes spilling fuel oil into the diesel generator room. Each day tank room curb can be emptied into the diesel generator building floor and equipment drain system. Once fuel oil or cooling water accumulates in the floor drain sump (one sump per diesel generator division), a level switch monitors the quantity of fuel oil or cooling water collected. This fluid is then

.>dispersed;to.;a.;common..oil .separator.. In...addition to the curb arrangement, a low-level storage tank alarm and a low-level day tank alarm also alert the operators to the possibility of a fuel oil leak in the day tank room.

In summary, large leaks are detected by low-level alarms in the. day tanks. Small leaks are detected by a shorter than normal cycle of the floor drain pumps.

The capped inlet of each storage tank fill line is located above the probable maximum flood level, thereby preventing.

the entrance of water. *Each storage and day tank's vent.

pipe is also located above the flood-level and is designed to prevent rain from entering.

The valve protects the turbocharger bearings by stopping the engine if oil pressure drops below 3 psi with zero bias pressure.

The circulating oil pump and the main oil pump are piped in parallel. During engine startup and shutdown, the motor-

"driven circulating oil pump takes oil from the engine sump and circulates it through the lube oil heater, the thermostatic valve, the lube oil cooler (if necessary,) the lube oil filter, the strainers, and to the main header in th'" engine.

Oil entering the valve at 160.F or lower goes directly to the filter bypassing the cooler. ,Oil entering the valve at 170 F and higher goes to the cooler and.then to the filter.

-Check valves prevent oil from flowing backwards through the circulating pump. From the filter, oil passes through the strainers to the engine main supply header.

The main header runs the length of the inside of the engine.

From this header, flexible lines supply oil to the main bearings through the bearing caps'rom the main bearings, oil -flows through drilled passages in the crankshaft to the connecting rod bearings and through the connecting rods and pins into the pistons for cooling. From the pistons, oil drains back to the sump. The cylinders and -pistons are lubricated by oil .,thrown from the crankpins and by oil vapor

l The turbocharger lube;oil=system,.provides. a,regulated .supp1y of lube oil whether the-engine is idling during a .test or running at "rated, speed.. Oil is supplied from the engine oil header at 50 psi to the 'urbocharger. filters. From the filters, oil flows to the'egulator. The, regulator is .the set at 5 psi -at zero bias. The bias pressure required for, regulator comes from the. 1:2-ratio relay.. Air pressure from.

The post-lube valve allows oil to flow to the turbocharger for 2 to 3 min after an engine shutdown to cool the turbocharger bearings. During s ar zng, azr rom the pilot valve and the vo ume bottle is vented through a quick release valve. When air from the post-lube valve is ventedthe-through the pilot valve, this allows oil to flow to turbocharger.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR QUESTION F430. 86 (9. 5. 7) f Your discussion of the prelubrication sys ems for the Division I/II and Division III diesel generators indicates that prelubrication is provided to the upper parts of %he diesel engines (valves, rocker arms,, rocker shafts, etc).

For some diesel engine designs, excessive or continuous prelubrication to the upper engine areas could result in lube oil entering and collecting in the cylinders with the potential for causing extensive engine damage when called on to start. Revise your FSAR to specifically address the design of all diesel generators with regard to this potential problem, and the applicable design considerations to preclude this from occurring.

MODERNIZATION RECOMMENDATION IMIVIERSION HEATER LUBE OIL CIRCULATING PUMP

'SYSTEM FOR EMERGENCY FAST START lNSTALLATIONS PURPOSE', To provide an improved immersionhrater lube oil circufating system, FigL l and lQ, that v'it! consistently supply oil ta the turbocharger and crankshaft in anticipation of.

an emergency start.

APPLICANT)ON: Atl turbocharged "S ~ "999", and M P4$ emergency fast start insta))attonL CUSS)0',4: Wear is minimired iflube oil is supp)led to engine and turi)ocharger bearings prior Io and during high speed emergency starts.

EMD's original immersion heater system provided a paraltcl lube oil circuit whereby oil is supplied to the turbocharger beaAngs via one path and the oil'cooler and fitters arc Oooded via another path. ifowever, to)towing a load run, the branched oif f)o~'is unba)anced because of thethinneri~scosityofhotoil.hsa rcsu)t, theoi) levelin the coo'lcr and fi)(er is not replenished to the full level until the oil cools sufficiently (approiiirnatety 3 bours fol)o~ ing shutdown). High speed starts during this period do not have the uear minimizing benefits of continually abundant oil supply.

Owners of EMD nuclear standby units have previously been notitsed of thc unnecessary wear caused by equipment exercise or test schedu)es that routine)y cal) for restarting engines without firss allowing for a cooling interva) from a previous load run, A)though a fcu; random starts under these adverse conditions are not ex pccted to cause difficulty, thc cumu)ative wear from repeated'routine starts is )i)iely to aAect eguipmcnt reliability. E)4D recommended that exercise and test schedules be revised'o avoid restarting engines until they have had a three hour cooiing period fottowing shutdowns.

Yhe primary benefit to bc gained from this modiTication is continua) oil re plenis)Iment of the oil coo)er and filters Io the full level regardless of oil temperature and viscosity.

4 ivoufd also remove restart restrictions impnsed on exercise or test sc)iedu)es.

<<ttracti 'c even 'hcn exercise or test schedules can bee rcf ily controlfctt. Oil systems ntqdificd in accordance > it h this instruction provide consistent oil circulation through the engine crankshaft bearings in addition to the turbocharger. As a result, engines very rapidly approach operating oif pressures following start up. Trapficd air urhicft may impede oil ffov'a vented from the system.

Proper performance of this improved system depends on operation of AC motor driven oil puntps. $ f start-ups are delayed for more than 5 seconds after loss of AC poorer, vre recommend that OC backup pumps be provided with suitabfe protcctiott against reverse Ao~ through the use of check valves.

Although oil flows through the crankshaft bearings, the standby oil level itt the engine is kept befog the camshafts and valve rocker arm assembfics. Sight glass indicators.

The jacket water system is a .closed loop system. During engine running condition, heated water from the engine discharge manifold flows to the temperature regulating valve. The temperature regulating valve regulates the flow

-'of water through the jacket water heat exchanger and maintains the engine jacket water at a constant. temperature..

If the water temperature is below 165 F, all water passes directly to the lube oil cooler. At water temperatures between 165 F and 180 F, the valve regulates the flow through the jacket water cooler and the bypass line. Jacket water flows from the lube oil to the engine-driven centrifugal pumps that pump the water into the engine jacket water main headers. From the main headers, jacket water turbocharger enters the engine

The . heated jacket water circulates through the lube oil cooler by thermosyphon action.to. warm the .lubricating .oil that is being circulated through the engine to- keep-the engine warm. The immersion heater maintains the lube.,oil;temperature.,between .125 E. and 155OF. For the keep-warm system to- maintain a uniform temperature within the diesel 'ngine jacket- water'nd throughout the cooling water system, the'Division III diesel generator ambient temperature is kept above 66 F.

To -preclude long-term. corrosion, treatment of the water used in the'acket water system includes the use of silicate nitrate inhibitors, in agreement wi th the engine manufacturer's recommendations, and periodic testing of the coolant to ensure that the water quality is maintained at the level recommended by the engine manufacturer.

Use of an antifreeze compound is not required since the entire cooling water system is enclosed, located indoors, and maintained warm by the immersion heater when the engine is in standby condition.

Any loss of water through seepage, leakage, or flow out the pressure relief cap will be noticed through routine checks of the expansion tank sight glass.

In the unlikely event that lube oil must be added to a diesel while it is running, special instructions will be included in the procedures covering tne diesel generators.-

Iube oil can be,added to the sumps, following, safe procedures" to prevent injury to the operator or damage to the diesels. Provisions are made on the diesel sump to allow the operator to observe the normal standby and the normal operating level of the lube oil.

Lube oil is obtained from .qualified vendors in properly.>>~.-

labeled drums. Iube oil is always transferred from these drums to the diesel and transfers to other holding devices are not utilized, to preclude .the possible mixing or use of improper oil. Instructions for adding lube oi1 require verification of the product prior to addition. Copies of

-."..-,"procedures will not be posted locally to preclude the use of

'napproved or out-of-date procedures. Points of addition for lube oil will have a caution tag affixed directing'he operator to read the applicable portion of procedures prior to adding lube oil. Instructions will detail procedures for adding oil in the standby and.the operating condition.

Training of personnel responsible for operation and

The description lo

'"of the Division III diesel generator circulating'nd soak back pumps operation is not clear. The piping arrangement shown on Figure 9.5-48 shows oil flow paths that are not consistent with the FSAR written description. Specifically, there is oil flow to the turbocharger at all times, rather than only on startup as indicated in the FSAR. Revise the FSAR and/or,.

Figure 9.5-48, as recpxired, to correct this inconsistency.

Nine Nile Point Unit 2 FSAR QUESTION F430.95 (9.5.7)

In, the FSAR, you state that the Division III lube oil

-circulating pump is rated at 6 GPM and is used only when the diesel generator is in the standby mode. At 6 GPM, the amount of oil circulated through the engine during standby is substantially less than that circulated by the main lube .

oil pump during operation. The purpose of circulating lube oil during standby is to enhance first try start reliability by ensuring an oil film on all moving parts, as well as-maintaining these parts at recommended preheated temperature. Therefore, demonstrate that'he standby circulating pump has "adequate capacity to:(1) maintain an adequate oil film, on the engine moving parts, and (2) that this capacity is sufficient to maintain the moving parts at recommended preheat, temperature. (SRP 9.5.7, Part II and III)

9.5.8.4 Inspection and Testing Requirement The diesel generator combustion air intake and exhaust sys-tem is designed to be readily accessible for visual inspection. System operability is tested during preoperational testing of the diesel generator. Continued integrity of the system is ensured through routine inspection, periodic cleaning of the inlet air filter, and the flushing of the intercooler and heater as recommended by engine manufacturer. The system is tested with periodic testing of the diesel generator as a whole. Periodic test-ing of the diesel generator is discussed in Section 8.3.1.

9.5.8.5 Safety Evaluation Each standby diesel generator has a combustion air intake and exhaust system independent of and separate from the com-.<<,.

bustion air intake and exhaust system of the other diesel generators. Each component of the combustion aix,.intake and exhaust system is contained in the same section of the diesel generator building, as its associated diesel generator. Therefore any failure in one diesel generator combustion air intake or exhaust system cannot jeopardize the safety function of any other'diesel generator.--

The combustion air intake system is sized to..supply suf-ficient air for continuous operation of the diesel loss generator below at".'maximum "-..rated, capacity...with, system,.pressure the maximum pressure drop recommended by the engine manufacturer. The exhaust system is sized to discharge the exhaust gases from the diesel engine when the diesel generator is operating continuously at the rated capacity with exhaust backpressure maintained below that recommended by the engine manufacturer.

The combustion air intake and exhaust outlets are located to minimize the possibility of recirculating the exhaust gases.

The intake openings are located at el 283 ft 6 in on the southern wall of the diesel generator building. The exhaust outlets are located above the roof at el 303 ft 3 in. from The exhaust gas discharges are horizontal and directed away the intake openings.

There is no storage of gas or any other, substance in the vicinity of the intake openings whose intentional or accidental release can dilute and reduce the oxygen content of the intake air below acceptable levels. The emergency diesel generators are separated from each other .and from all, other areas by 3-hour rated fire barriers.. Separate air intakes, located at the south end of the diesel generator building, are provided for each generator. No credible fire in any generator room should affect the air intakes for the remaining two diesels.

The combustion air intake system has an air filter that is designed to .reduce .airborne, particulate .material over the entire time period that the diesel generator can operate continuously assuming maximum concentration of airborne particulate at the intake.

All engine-mounted'lectrical/electronic ,components are . .

enclosed in dusttight, enclosures. The diesel generator room and- control panel room ventilation air. is filtered through medium '- 'efficiency 'filters. ' The '-combustion intake air filters are high efficiency filters designed to reduce airborne particulate material over the entire time period that the diesel generator-'can-operate- continuously-assumixg maximum concentration of .airborne. particulate at the intake.

Nine Mile Point Unit 2 FSAR supplied from the turbine extraction steam system (Figure 10.1-7 and Section 10.4.10).

To show that a single steam valve, failure cannot disable the turbine overspeed trip from functioning, the following discussion is offered.

Main Stop and Control Valves The main stop and control valves are arranged in series, four sets in parallel.

On a turbine-generator trip all stop and control valves close. If, for example, a stop valve was not to close, the corresponding control valve would interrupt steam flow. Zikewise, if a control valve fails to close, corresponding stop valve would interrupt steam flow.

the The valves close in 0.2 sec on a turbine-generator trip.

Thus, a single valve failure cannot contribute to an overspeed trip.

Combined Intermediate, Valves - The combined intermediate valves are arranged six.in parallel, however each CIV has a stop valve function and a control valve function powered by separate actuators and control loops effectively making .each CIV a stop valve and a control valve in series. As such, the overspeed protection .

system is not disabled based on the discussion above./ffd qadi-(~7

@<as.r~'g +cPld FcrJ'A'g-QZP g rS .I5 sM Bypass Valves There are five bypass valves arranged in

The above..discussion ,is necessary,.'for, generator-related trips only. On all other trips the main generator breaker remains closed after the trip initiation keeping a load on the turbine thus acting to "brake" it. The main breaker remains closed until the generator begins to motor.

The turbine overspeed protection system is designed to fail safe upon damage to electrical wiring or hydraulic lines such as would result from a moderate or high energy line break. The fail safe action is a turbine trip.

Turbine generator overspeed protection is provided in the extraction steam lines in accordance..with. the turbine manufacturer's requirements.

These valves are - swing check valves with external counterweighted lever arms and air cylinders and have a closing time of 0.1 sec. The air cylinders use air pressure to maintain a spring in compression. Upon release of the air pressure the spring provides enough force at the start of the stroke to overcome sticking and to place the swing disc in the flow stream. The spring will not close the valve against flow, but will provide sufficient motion to confirm operability. The air cylinder/spring does not prevent the disc from closing on reverse flow.

Additionally, the extraction steam system is designed so that the total unrestrained energy in the piping and equipment volume is less than the turbine manufacturer' maximum value limit. Nonreturn valves are not supplied in the extraction lines to the fifth point feedwater heaters since the steam is prevented from expanding through any .

turbine stages by the combined intermediate valves.

Nonreturn valves are not. needed, on the extraction lines to the second .,-and first . point heaters, since they contain insufficient stored energy to produce an unacceptable overspeed event.

.The three divisions of the plant onsite power system are electrically independent of each other. This independence is maintained through the loads the divisions feed; each division feeds a separate load group and there is no chance of interconnecting independent divisions through the loads.

Each division has its dedicated standby power source that is independent of the standby power source of any other division. There is no provision for paralleling the standby power sources of different divisions or ,for using the standby power source of one division to feed the loads of any other division. Each division uses its own control power sources for instrumentation and control, and the con-trol power source of each division is independent of the control power of any other division.
