SUMMARY

This report provides the cycle specific plant operating limits, which are listed below, for Fermi 2, Cycle 20, as required by Technical Specification 5.6.5. The analytical methods used to determine these core operating limits are those previously reviewed and approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in GESTAR II (Reference 7).

The cycle specific limits contained within this report are valid for the full range of the licensed operating domain.

OPERATING LIMIT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION APLHGR 3.2.1 MCPR 3.2.2 LHGR 3.2.3 RBM 3.3.2.1 BSP REGIONS 3.3.1.1 APLHGR = AVERAGE PLANAR LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE MCPR = MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO LHGR = LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE RBM = ROD BLOCK MONITOR BSP = BACKUP STABILITY PROTECTION

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 5 of 26 2.0 AVERAGE PLANAR LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE 2.1 Definition TECH SPEC IDENT OPERATING LIMIT 3.2.1 APLHGR The AVERAGE PLANAR LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE (APLHGR) shall be applicable to a specific planar height and is equal to the sum of the LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATEs (LHGRs) for all the fuel rods in the specified bundle at the specified height divided by the number of fuel rods in the fuel bundle at the height.

2.2 Determination of MAPLHGR Limit The maximum APLHGR (MAPLHGR) limit is a function of reactor power, core flow, fuel type, and average planar exposure. The limit is developed, using NRC approved methodology described in References 7 and 8, to ensure gross cladding failure will not occur following a loss of coolant accident (LOCA). The MAPLHGR limit ensures that the peak clad temperature during a LOCA will not exceed the limits as specified in 10CFR50.46(b)(1) and that the fuel design analysis criteria defined in References 7 and 8 will be met.

The MAPLHGR limit during dual loop operation is calculated by the following equation:

MAPLHGRLIMIT = MIN (MAPLHGR (P), MAPLHGR (F))

where:

MAPLHGR (P) = MAPFAC (P) x MAPLHGRSTD MAPLHGR (F) = MAPFAC (F) x MAPLHGRSTD Within four hours after entering single loop operation, the MAPLHGR limit is calculated by the following equation:

MAPLHGRLIMIT = MIN (MAPLHGR (P), MAPLHGR (F))

where:

MAPLHGR (P) = MAPFAC (P) x MAPLHGRSTD MAPLHGR (F) = MAPFAC (F) x MAPLHGRSTD MAPFAC (P) and MAPFAC (F) are limited to 0.80 The Single Loop multiplier limit is 0.80 (Reference 2) based on assuring a Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA) while in single loop will be bounded by the two loop LOCA (Reference 12).

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 6 of 26 MAPLHGRSTD, the standard MAPLHGR limit, is defined at a power of 3486 MWth and flow of 105 Mlbs/hr for each fuel type as a function of average planar exposure and is presented in Table

1. (Reference 2) When hand calculations are required, MAPLHGRSTD shall be determined by interpolation from Table 1. MAPFAC(P), the core power-dependent MAPLHGR limit adjustment factor, shall be calculated by using Section 2.2.1. MAPFAC(F), the core flow-dependent MAPLHGR limit adjustment factor, shall be calculated by using Section 2.2.2.

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 7 of 26 2.2.1 Calculation of MAPFAC(P)

The core power-dependent MAPLHGR limit adjustment factor, MAPFAC(P) (Reference 2, 3, 11

& 15), shall be calculated by one of the following equations:

For 0 P < 25 :

No thermal limits monitoring is required.

For 25 P 29.5 :

With Turbine Bypass OPERABLE, For core flow < 50 Mlbs/hr, MAPFAC (P) = 0.604 + 0.0038 (P - 29.5)

For core flow 50 Mlbs/hr, MAPFAC (P) = 0.584 + 0.0038 (P - 29.5)

With Turbine Bypass INOPERABLE, For core flow < 50 Mlbs/hr, MAPFAC (P) = 0.488 + 0.0051 (P - 29.5)

For core flow 50 Mlbs/hr, MAPFAC (P) = 0.436 + 0.0051 (P - 29.5)

For 29.5 < P 100 :

MAPFAC (P) = 1.0 + 0.005233 (P - 100) where: P = Core power (fraction of rated power times 100).

Note: This range applies with pressure regulator in service and, for power >85%, it also applies with the pressure regulator out of service

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 8 of 26 MAPFAC(P) for Pressure Regulator Out of Service Limits With one Turbine Pressure Regulator Out of Service and Reactor Power Greater Than or Equal to 29.5% and Less Than or Equal to 85% and both Turbine Bypass and Moisture Separator Reheater Operable:

For 25 P 29.5 :

For core flow < 50 Mlbs/hr, MAPFAC (P) = 0.604 + 0.0038 (P - 29.5)

For core flow 50 Mlbs/hr, MAPFAC (P) = 0.583 + 0.0036 (P - 29.5)

For 29.5 < P < 45 :

MAPFAC (P) = 0.680 + 0.00627 (P - 45)

For 45 P < 60 :

MAPFAC (P) = 0.758 + 0.0052 (P - 60)

For 60 P 85 :

MAPFAC (P) = 0.831 + 0.00292 (P - 85) where: P = Core power (fraction of rated power times 100).

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 9 of 26 2.2.2 Calculation of MAPFAC(F)

The core flow-dependent MAPLHGR limit adjustment factor, MAPFAC(F) (Reference 2 & 3),

shall be calculated by the following equation:

WT MAPFAC(F)= MIN(C, AF x + BF )

100 where:

WT = Core flow (Mlbs/hr).

AF = Given in Table 2.

BF = Given in Table 2.

C = 1.0 in Dual Loop and 0.80 in Single Loop.

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 10 of 26 3.0 MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO TECH SPEC IDENT OPERATING LIMIT 3.2.2 MCPR 3.1 Definition The MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO (MCPR) shall be the smallest Critical Power Ratio (CPR) that exists in the core for each type of fuel. The CPR is that power in the assembly that is calculated by application of the appropriate correlation(s) to cause some point in the assembly to experience boiling transition, divided by the actual assembly operating power.

3.2 Determination of Operating Limit MCPR The required Operating Limit MCPR (OLMCPR) (Reference 2) at steady-state rated power and flow operating conditions is derived from the established fuel cladding integrity Safety Limit MCPR and an analysis of abnormal operational transients. To ensure that the Safety Limit MCPR is not exceeded during any anticipated abnormal operational transient, the most limiting transients have been analyzed to determine which event will cause the largest reduction in CPR.

Three different core average exposure conditions are evaluated. The result is an Operating Limit MCPR which is a function of exposure and . is a measure of scram speed, and is defined in Section 3.3.2. Cycle 20 operating limits are based on the Two Loop SLMCPR of 1.08.

The limiting OLMCPR shall be represented by the following equation:

OLMCPR = MAX(MCPR(P), MCPR(F))

The process to calculate MCPR(P), the core power-dependent MCPR operating limit, is illustrated in Section 3.3.

The process to calculate MCPR(F), the core flow-dependent MCPR operating limit, is illustrated in Section 3.4.

In case of Single Loop Operation, the Safety Limit MCPR (Reference 2) is increased to account for increased uncertainties in core flow measurement and TIP measurement. For Single Loop Operation, the OLMCPR is increased by 0.03 from the Two Loop OLMCPR.

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 11 of 26 In case of operation with one Turbine Pressure Regulator out of service, OLMCPR limits are bounding when reactor power is less than 29.5% or greater than 85%. When reactor power is greater than or equal to 29.5% and less than or equal to 85%, then operation with one Turbine Pressure Regulator out of service is permitted if both Turbine Bypass Valves and the Moisture Separator Reheater are operable.

EOR is defined as 100% power, 100% core flow, and all control rods fully withdrawn.

EOR-4991 means 4991 MWD/ST before End of Rated Conditions.

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 12 of 26 3.3 Calculation of MCPR(P)

MCPR(P), the core power-dependent MCPR operating limit (Reference 2, 3, 11, & 15), shall be calculated by the following equation:

3.3.1 Calculation of KP The core power-dependent MCPR operating limit adjustment factor, KP (Reference 2, 3, 11, &

15), shall be calculated by using one of the following equations:

K = 1.076+(0.00296x(85 P))

For 85 P 100 :

K = 1.0+(0.00507x(100 P))

KP for Pressure Regulator Out of Service Limits With one Turbine Pressure Regulator Out of Service, Reactor Power greater than 29.5%, and both Turbine Bypass and Moisture Separator Reheater Operable:

For 29.5 < P < 45 :

K P = 1.52 + (0.01193 x (45 P))

For 45 < P < 60 :

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 16 of 26 4.0 LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE TECH SPEC IDENT OPERATING LIMIT 3.2.3 LHGR 4.1 Definition The LINEAR HEAT GENERATION RATE (LHGR) shall be the heat generation rate per unit length of fuel rod. It is the integral of the heat flux over the heat transfer area associated with the unit length. By maintaining the operating LHGR below the applicable LHGR limit, it is assured that all thermal-mechanical design bases and licensing limits for the fuel will be satisfied.

4.2 Determination of LHGR Limit The maximum LHGR limit is a function of reactor power, core flow, fuel and rod type, and fuel rod nodal exposure. The limit is developed, using NRC approved methodology described in References 7 and 8, to ensure the cladding will not exceed its yield stress and that fuel thermal-mechanical design criteria will not be violated during any postulated transient events. The LHGR limit ensures the fuel mechanical design requirements as defined in References 1 & 21 will be met.

The LHGR limit during dual loop operation is calculated by the following equation:

LHGRLIMIT = MIN (LHGR (P), LHGR (F))

where:

LHGR (P) = LHGRFAC (P) x LHGRSTD LHGR (F) = LHGRFAC (F) x LHGRSTD Within four hours after entering single loop operation, the LHGR limit is calculated by the following equation:

LHGRLIMIT = MIN (LHGR (P), LHGR (F))

where:

LHGR (P) = LHGRFAC (P) x LHGRSTD LHGR (F) = LHGRFAC (F) x LHGRSTD LHGRFAC (P) and LHGRFAC (F) are limited to 0.80 The Single Loop multiplier limit is 0.80 (Reference 2) based on assuring a LOCA in single loop will be bounded by the two loop LOCA (Reference 12).

COLR - 20 Revision 0 Page 17 of 26 LHGRSTD, the standard LHGR limit, is defined at a power of 3486 MWth and flow of 105 Mlbs/hr for each fuel and rod type as a function of fuel rod nodal exposure and found in the Table 5 reference. When hand calculations are required, LHGRSTD shall be determined by interpolation from the Table 5 reference. LHGRFAC(P), the core power-dependent LHGR limit adjustment factor, shall be calculated by using Section 4.2.1. LHGRFAC(F), the core flow-dependent LHGR limit adjustment factor, shall be calculated by using Section 4.2.2.

The BSP Regions are required if the Oscillation Power Range Monitors are inoperable. Regions are identified (refer to Figures 1 and 2) that are either excluded from planned entry (Scram Region), or where specific actions are required to be taken to immediately leave the region (Exit Region). A region is also identified where operation is allowed provided that additional monitoring is performed to verify that the reactor core is not exhibiting signs of core thermal hydraulic instability (Stability Awareness Region). (Reference 2)

The boundaries of the Scram and Exit regions are established on a cycle specific basis based upon core decay ratio calculations performed using NRC approved methodology.

The Cycle 20 BSP boundaries defined in Figure 1 are applicable when final feedwater temperature is near the optimum range as illustrated in 20.107.02, Loss of Feedwater Heating Abnormal Operating Instruction. Figure 2 is applicable to operation with Feedwater Heaters Out-Of-Service (FWHOOS) or with Final Feedwater Temperature Reduction (FFWTR) or when final feedwater temperature is below the optimum range.
