- 1. INTRODUCTION This Core Operating Limits Report for Browns Ferry Unit 2, Cycle 8 is prepared in accordance with the requirements of Browns Ferry Technical Specification 6.9.1.7.
The core operating limits presented here were developed using NRC-approved methods (References 1 and 2).
Results from the reload analyses for Browns Ferry Unit 2, Cycle 8 are documented in Reference 3.
The cycle 8 loading includes four Westinghouse QUAD+ demonstration assemblies.
The locations of these assemblies satisfy the criteria specified in References 4 and 5.
Evaluations performed by Westinghouse (Reference
- 5) show that the results of licensing analyses for the lead PSxSR fuel assembly bound those for the QUAD+
demonstration assemblies.
Cycle specific analyses confirm this conclusion.
The following core operating limits are included in this report:
a.
Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHGR) Limit (Technical Specification 3.5.1)
- b. Linear Heat Generation Rate (LHGR) Limit (Technical Specification 3.5.J)
- c. Minimum Critical Power Ratio Operating Limit(OLMCPR)
(Technical Specification 3.5.K/4.5.K)
- d. APRM Flow Biased Rod Block Trip Setting (Technical Specification 2.1.A.l.c, Table 3.2.C, and Specification 3.5.L)
- e. RBM Upscale (Flow Bias) Trip Setting and Clipped Value (Technical Specification Table 3.2.C)
- 2. APLHGR LIMIT(TECHNICALSPECIFICATION 3.5.1)
The APLHGR limit for each type of fuel as a function of exposure is shown in Tables 1-7. The APLHGR limits for the GE9B bundles (GESXSNB) are for the most limiting lattice at each exposure point. The specific values for each lattice are given in Reference 6.
TVANuclear F Core Operating Limits Report TVA-COLR-BF2C8 Revision 1, Page 4
- 3. LHGR LIMIT(TECHNICALSPECIFICATION 3.5J)
The LHGR limitfor unit 2 cycle 8 is fuel type dependent, as shown below:
~FI~T~
PSX8R/BPSXSR/QUAD+
GE8X8NB LH R Limi 13.4 kw/ft 14.4 kw/ft a.
OLMCPR (TECHNICALSPECIFICATION 3.5.K/4.5.K) whichever is greater ZA ZB a.
The OLMCPR is equal to the fuel type and exposure dependent MCPR limit at rated flow and rated power shown in Figures 1-2 multiplied by the Kf shown in Figure 3, where; Zow ZB Z =00 or Z
Zi = 0.90 sec (Specification 3.3.C.1 scram time limitto 20%
insertion from fullywithdrawn )
i Zi = 0.710 + 1.65 (0.053)
N 2
n ng Zi Zave n
where; n = Number ofsurveillance rod tests performed to date in cycle (including BOC test).
Zi = Scram time to 20% insertion from fullywithdrawn ofthe i fod N = Total number ofactive rods measured in Specification 4.3.C.1 at BOC
- b. For the performance of Surveillance Requirement 4,5.K.2.a (prior to initial scram time measurements for the cycle),

- c. For the performance of Surveillance Requirement 4.5.K.2.b,
'6 shall be determined in accordance with 4.a above.
- 5. APRM FLOW BIASED ROD BLOCKTRIP SETTING (TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION 2.1.A.1.c, TABLE3.2.C, AND SPECIFICATION 3.5.L)
The APRM Rod Block trip setting shall be:
SRB S (0.58W + 57%)
where:
SRB = Rod Block setting in percent of rated thermal power (3293 MWt)
W = Loop recirculation fiow rate in percent of rated Note:
Under certain conditions, the APRM Rod Block setting must be adjusted by FRP/CMFLPD.
See Technical Specification 3.5.L
- 6. RBM UPSCALE (FLOW BIAS) TRIP SETTING AND CLIPPED VALUE (TECHNICALSPECIFICATION TABLE3.2.C)
The RBM Upscale trip setting shall be:
5 (0.66W + 43%)
where:
Trip level setting is in percent of rated thermal power (3293 MWt)
W = Loop recirculation fiow rate in percent of rated RBM upscale flow-biased setpoint clipped at 109 percent rated reactor power.
