Maximum diesel generator steady state loading for design basis and SBO is maintained by Calculation E-42.

b. Diesel generators 1-2A, 1B and 2B steady state loading for design basis and SBO events is calculated to be below the continuous ratings.
c. Diesel generator 1C steady state loading in some design basis scenarios and in SBO events is calculated to be above the continuous rating by less than 5% but below the 2000-hour rating.
d. Diesel generator 2C is the dedicated SBO diesel and its steady state loading in SBO events is calculated to be above the continuous rating by less than 5% but below the 2000-hour rating.
e. The diesel generators are subject to more than normal mechanical wear and tear when the intercooler water temperature exceeds 120

°F without altering the electrical output at a specific electrical load rating. Operating the diesels above the intercooler temperature limit of 120

°F may cause a major inspection/overhaul to be prematurely required. In order to keep the intercooler temperatures within limitations, the allowable kW output of the diesel should be manually reduced for a specific load rating (i.e., the diesel should be manually derated). Manual derating of the diesels for post-accident required automatic sequenced loads is not necessary. However, operations may desire to manually add load to cope with certain post accident scenarios. At service water temperature conditions above 97.3

°F, the allowable kW for diesel generators 1-2A, 1B and 2B should be 4279 kW and the allowable kW for diesel generators 1C and 2C, the small OP diesels, should be 3044 kW for their respective 2000-hour ratings.

a. River water is available during normal operating conditions for use as makeup to the service water storage pond, which serves as the ultimate heat sink.

However, river water is not required for any of the conditions listed in this table. When river water is not available, the se rvice water system can be recirculated to the pond to minimi ze the pond's inventory losses.

b. At the probable maximum flood, the river water pump structure will be flooded; therefore, the service water pump flow will be supplied from storage pond volume. The number of pumps required (four) assumes a normal safe cold shutdown condition, re circulating the cooling water to the storage pond.

[a] These values are design flowrates for the components listed.

Actual flowrates to individual components will vary depending on component operational conditions.

[b] Only one train of components are assumed in service following a LOCA.

However, the current alignment would allow the on-service Spent Fuel Pool Heat Exchanger to receive CCW flow du ring LOCA Recirculation. When a Spent Fuel Pool Heat Exchanger and an RHR heat exchanger are aligned to the same train, as they cou ld be during LOCA Recirculation, the CCW flow available to the Spent Fuel Pool Heat Exchanger will decrease.

(j) CCW flow to these components is isolated by a failed clos ed air-operated valve following a loss of offsite power (LOSP).

(k) Even though letdown flow to the letdown heat exchanger is isolated following a loss of offsite power (LOSP), CCW flow to t his component could increase as the air operator flow control valve fails open.

[a] With normal purification, the heat load is 5.37 x 10 6 Btu/hr. With maximum purification, the heat load is 11.67 x 10 6 Btu/hr. During cooldown, the heat load is 4.8 x 106 Btu/hr. [b] Initial RHR heat load for a single train cooldown.

[c] The spent fuel pool heat load is based on a 79 assembly per cycle discharge schedule with 25 days decay time for the last discharge and was calculated using the NRC's uncertainty factors.

[d] The evaporator is not required to operate during the cooldown period. If it is necessary to reduce the heat load on the component cooling water system, the evaporator can be shut down and the cooling flow terminated.

[e] Maximum calculated heat load assuming that the Gross Failed Fuel Detector (GFFD), the Fine Cooling Chiller, and 9 sample coolers are in operation.

[f] The waste evaporator is not currently used. Therefore, t he Waste Evaporator's heat load of 8.8 MBtu/Hr is not listed.

[g] Two charging pumps are normally ali gned to the on-service train of CCW.

[h] This column denotes components in operation during a single train cooldown. Both trains of CCW are normally placed in service during the cooldown period. However, only one train of CCW is required to operate during the cooldown period.

[i] Initial RHR heat load for a single train cooldown for LOCA re circulation mode.

[j] CCW flow to these components is isolated by a failed closed air-operated valve following a loss of offsite power (LOSP). T herefore, should a LOSP occur, these heat loads would not be transferred to the CCW system.

[k] Letdown flow to the letdown heat exchanger is isolated following a loss of offsite power (LOSP). Therefore, should a LOSP occur, the letdown heat exchanger heat load would not be transferred to the CCW system.

[l] Represents "start-up" and "at-power" operation.

[m] The heat loads on the RHR and spent fuel pool (SFP) heat exchangers (HXs) vary during the LOCA recirculation event with a resultant heatup of the SFP. The combined heat loads do not exceed 115.3 MBTU/hr. The maximum RHR HX heat load occurs at the start of re circulation phase, and the maxim um SFP HX heat load occurs after the peak SFP temperature is reached and SFP cooldow n commences. The maximum SFP heat removal rate slightly exceeds the assumed decay heat load of 15.4 MBTU/hr.

b. The heat load on the service water system from the shutdown/ cooldown of a unit that has experienced a LOCA is described in more detail in table 9.2-13.

The heat load on the service water system from the unit that is undergoing a shutdown/cooldown with a 50

°F/h cooldown is described in more detail in table 9.2-14. 50

°F/h cooldown refers to the rate of the cooldown of the RCS from 350

°F to 140°F. This is the temperature range through which the RHRS operates.

The heat load on the service water system from the unit that is undergoing a shutdown/cooldown with a 16-h cooldown is described in more detail in table 9.2-15. Sixteen-hour cooldown refers to the length of time required to cool the RCS from 350°F to 140°F. This is the temperature range through which the RHRS operates. Sixteen hours is the normal time required to provide this cooldown using one train of RHR; however, to maximize heat input to the service water pond, this analysis assumes both trains of RHR are operating during the 16-h cooldown.

c. The UHS analysis includes a 10 million Btu/h heat load as a margin for possible future additional service water system heat loads.
d. The value of 2.59 x 10 6 s equals 30 days.
e. The heat loads rejected by individual components into the SWS were reevaluated to assess the impact of power uprating both FNP units on the projected maximum SW pond (UHS) tem perature. While some component heat loads increase as a result of power uprate, many others decrease for reasons other than uprate. These include the reduction in the heat load from Diesel Generator 2C (SBO diesel which does not start on LOSP), from the Waste Evaporator Package (no longer in use at FNP), and from the control room air conditioner (no longer cooled by service water). The net of these changes to the overall UHS heat load, including changes related to power uprating and those unrelated to power uprating, is a decrease in the heat load beginning on the second day of the 30-day period of evaluation and continuing through the end of the 30-day period. As the reevaluated overall heat load into the UHS is lower than that described in the current

UHS evaluation, the UHS remains capable of performing its safety-related function and the peak supply temperature from the service water pond will be below the current design basis value of 106.2

Notes:

1. The heat load of these components is incl uded in the heat loads for the unit that has experienced a LOCA.
2. The blowdown heat exchanger is in operation for 4 h following 0-percent reactor power.

It is assumed that 0-percent r eactor power is reached 2 h followi ng the trip. From the trip until 0-percent power, the blowdown heat ex changer sees a blowdown flowrate of 75 gal/min and a heat load of 18.0 x 10 6 Btu/h. In the period from 2 h (t = 7200 s) to 6 h (t = 21,600 s) following the trip, the blowdown rate is increased to 200 gal/min. The heat load initially increases to 37.6 x 10 6 Btu/h due to the increased blowdown flowrate but then decreases with the decreasing RCS tem perature. Blowdown is isolated when the RCS temperature reaches 140

°F (at t = 21,600 s).

It is assumed that the serv ice water system sees the design turbine building heat load of 87.8 x 10 6 for the 2-h period from the trip until r eactor power is reduced to 0 percent (at t = 7200 s). The turbine building heat load then drops linearly over a period of 24 h to 16.8 x 10 6 Btu/h (at t = 93,600 s). It then remains at 16.8 x 10 6 Btu/h for the remainder of the 30-day period.

Blowdown is isolated when the RCS temperature reaches 140

°F (at t = 21,600 s).

REV 25 4/14 TABLE 9.2-15 (SHEET 4 OF 4)

3. It is assumed that the service water system sees the design turbine building heat load of 87.8 x 10 6 for the 2-h period from the trip until r eactor power is reduced to 0 percent (at t = 7200 s). The turbine building heat load then drops linearly over a period of 24 h to 16.8 x 10 6 Btu/h (at t = 93,600 s). It then remains at 16.8 x 10 6 Btu/h for the remainder of the 30-day period.
4. The BTRS chillers have been retired in place and are no longer in use. The BTRS chiller heat load of 4.5 x 10 6 Btu/h is included to maintain margin.
f. The heat loads rejected by individual components into the SWS were reevaluated to assess the impact of power uprating both FNP units on the projected maximum SW pond (UHS) temperature. While some component heat loads increase as a result of power uprate, many others decrease for reasons other than uprate.

These include the reduction in the heat load from Diesel Generator 2C (SBO diesel which does not start on LOSP), from the Waste Evaporator Package (no longer in use at FNP), and from the control room air conditioner (no longer cooled by service water). The net of these changes to the overall UHS heat load, including changes related to power uprating and those unrelated to power uprating, is a decrease in the heat load

beginning on the second day of the 30-day period of evaluation and continuing through the end of the 30-day period. As the reevaluated overall heat load into the UHS is lower than that described in the current UHS evaluation, the UHS remains capable of perform ing its safety-related function and the peak supply temperature from the serv ice water pond will be below the current design basis value of 106.2

°F.

9.3-1 REV 25 4/14 9.3 PROCESS AUXILIARIES

The process auxiliaries consist of those auxiliary systems associated with the reactor process

system. These systems include the compressed air system, process sampling systems, equipment and floor drainage system, chemical and volume control system (CVCS), and failed fuel detection systems. The evaluations of radiological considerations are presented in

chapter 12. Only the CVCS is necessary for safe shutdown of the plant.

9.3.1 COMPRESSED

AIR SYSTEM The compressed air system, as shown in drawings D-170131, sheets 1 and 2; D-200019, sheets 1 and 2; D-175035, sheet 1; D-205035; D-175034, sheets 1 through 3; and D-205034, sheets 1 through 4, provides all plant compressed air requirements for pneumatic instruments

and valves and for service air outlets located throughout the plant. There are two primary trains

of air compressors per unit with each unit having a spare air compressor which is arranged so

that it may be used for either unit. The compressed air system is not required for the safe

shutdown of the plant. The following subdivisions provide information on design bases, system

descriptions, safety evaluation, tests and inspections, and instrumentation applications for the compressed air system.

9.3.1.1 Design Bases The two primary trains of air compressors provided in the system are sized to furnish the total

average instrument air requirements plus an a llowance for service air use. Two parallel instrument air filtering and drying trains are provided to treat the normal maximum quantity of air

required for instrument air and service air requi rements and to deliver dry air having a dewpoint of -40°F or less at 100 psig. One filtering and drying train has sufficient capacity to

accommodate normal operation of all three air compressors simultaneously.

The compressed air piping system which furnishes air inside the containment is equipped with containment isolation valving in accordance with the criteria for containment isolation systems

as discussed in subsection 6.2.4.

All parts of the system located within the auxiliary building and containment, with the exception

of the containment penetrations, are designed to meet Seismic Category II requirements. The

air receivers and instrument air dryers were designed and fabricated in accordance with

Section VIII of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure

Vessel Code. System piping, with the exception of the containment penetrations, was

fabricated and installed in accordance with American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B31.1, Code for Pressure Piping. The containment penetration piping was fabricated and installed in

accordance with Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.

9.3.1.2 System Description The compressed air system consists of three compressors, three aftercoolers, four air receivers, and instrument air filtering and drying equipment. The cooling water for aftercoolers and FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-2 REV 25 4/14 compressors is supplied from the service wate r system. The air receivers are connected to a common compressed air header that serves both instrument air and service air.

Each air header supplies branch lines which supply instrument air and service air to all parts of

the plant. All instrument air lines penetrating the containment have isolation valves located

outside the containment which are installed in series with check valves located inside the

containment. All service air lines penetrating the containment have one locked closed globe

valve on both sides of the containment penetration.

The three Unit 1 compressors and two of the Unit 2 compressors are two-stage, water-cooled, rotary screw compressors with a capacity of 800 scfm at 110-psig discharge pressure. Each of

these compressors is equipped with an intercooler and aftercooler and discharge compressed

air to a 150-ft 3-capacity air receiver tank. One of the Unit 2 compressors is a two-stage, water-cooled, rotary screw compressor with 789 scfm at 100-psig discharge pressure. This

compressor is equipped with an intercooler and aftercooler and discharges compressed air to

an 89-ft 3 air receiver tank. Each compressor takes suction from inside the turbine building through an air filter.

The compressor controls are designed to permit continuous operation of any number of the

compressor motors with the compressors automatically loaded and unloaded in response to

system pressure or automatic start and stop oper ation of any number of the compressor motors in response to system pressure. During normal plant operation, one of the compressors is

selected for continuous motor operation, while the other compressors serve as standbys and

start automatically if the continuously operat ing compressor cannot meet system demand.

Compressed air normally passes through one or two parallel filtering and drying trains before

being distributed to the instrument air and servic e air piping systems. One filtering and drying train is sufficient to accommodate the normal operation of both the instrument air and service air

systems. The arrangement of the filtering and drying equipment allows cleaning or changing of

filters while the unit is in operation by diverting the airflow through the other parallel train. Each

air dryer has two independent drying chambers connected in parallel. The air dryer

automatically alternates airflow through each of the chambers to permit automatic drying of the

desiccant in one chamber while the other chamber is in service.

9.3.1.3 Safety Evaluation The compressed air system is required for normal operation and startup of the plant; however, all pneumatically operated devices in the plant essential for safe shutdown are designed to

operate to the safe position upon loss of air pressure. Therefore, a supply of compressed air is

not essential for safe shutdown of the plant, and the compressed air system is, accordingly, not

designed to meet the single failure criterion. All pneumatically operated valves essential for

safe shutdown and not used for containment isolation are listed in table 9.3-1. Those valves

necessary for containment isolation are listed in table 6.2-31.

The isolation valves installed in the instrument air containment penetrations will prevent

releases from the containment in the event of failure of the compressed air system pressure

boundary inside the containment. The air-operated isolation valves automatically operate to the FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-3 REV 25 4/14 closed position upon initiation of a containment isolation signal and are designed to operate to

the closed position upon failure of air pressure or electrical power to the valves.

Required air cleanliness is maintained by the following features:

A. Filters installed at the inlets to the compressors.

B. Filters at each end of the air dryer elements. The afterfilters are designed to remove particulates down to .9

µm absolute.

C. Filters installed in all lines to instruments and valves essential for safe shutdown.

The compressors and the air dryer units are designed for full capacity operation

over the full range of environmental tem perature and humidity conditions that can occur in the turbine building.

9.3.1.4 Tests and Inspections The compressed air system will be tested in accordance with written procedures during the

initial testing and operation program. All engineer ed safety features systems will be tested for

performance capability under conditions of loss of instrument air as outlined in chapter 14.

9.3.1.5 Instrumentation Applications For each operating unit, the air compressors can be controlled either by sequence control logic integrated into one air compressor or by remote hand switches located in the control room. The sequence control logic will make one compressor the master and the others will be slaves. The sequence control logic will load and unload the selected air compressors based on header pressure. Each compressor can be deselected from sequence control in order to be controlled by its remote hand switch. The hand switch can be placed in "off" or "auto". When the switch is in the "auto" position the compressor will load and unload based on the compressor's discharge pressure.

The following pressure switches (drawings D-170131, sheets 1 and 2; D-200019, sheets 1 and

2; D-175035, sheet 1; D-205035; D-175034, sheets 1 through 3; and D-205034, sheets 1

through 4) located in the system allow for an order of priority in removal of various compressed

air loads in the event of a system failure:

9.3.2 PROCESS

SAMPLING SYSTEMS 9.3.2.1 Design Bases The sampling systems are designed to permit liquid and gaseous sampling for analysis and

chemistry control, both primary and secondary, of the plant primary and secondary fluids.

Samples are used to provide information for monitoring the operational performance of plant

equipment and for making operational decisions. The following description is for Unit l; the

second unit is a separate but identical system, except as noted.

9.3.2.2 System Description The sampling system is divided into two secti ons, the nuclear steam supply system (NSSS) sampling section and the turbine plant analyzer sampling section.

9.3.2.2.1 Nuclear Steam Supply System Sampling Stations The NSSS sampling station, located in the auxiliary building sample room, provides sample

streams for grab samples or collection in sample bombs as listed in table 9.3-2. Chemical and

radiochemical analyses are performed on these samples, as appropriate, to determine boron

concentration, fission and corrosion product concentration, and pH and conductivity levels.

Analytical results are then used to regulate boron concentration, to evaluate fuel rod integrity, to

evaluate ion exchanges and filter performance, and to specify chemical additions to related

systems. The system is designed to permit remote collection of selected samples during all

modes of operation, from full power to cold shutdown, without requiring access to the

containment. Administrative procedures will ensure that precollection purging, sample

collection time, and sample volume will provide representative samples for analysis.

Sample point locations have been selected to ensure that representative samples are obtained.

Also included in the design are provisions for local grab samples of liquid and gaseous fluid

streams. These points, though not considered part of the sampling system, are listed in

table 9.3-3.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-5 REV 25 4/14 At the NSSS sampling station, all radioactive and potentially radioactive sample streams are

routed to a sampling facility contained within an exhaust ventilated, hooded enclosure. Process fluids at temperatures greater than 140

°F will be cooled to < 100

°F before being routed to sample pressure vessels or grab sample points.

From the sample station, purge recirculation, with appropriate pressure reduction, is routed to

the volume control tank (VCT) for all points except the VCT gas sample. When operating

conditions preclude purge recirculation to the VCT, i.e., CVCS system out-of-service, grab

samples are obtained by directing sample system flush water to the waste holdup tank. The

VCT gas sample is returned to the suction of the waste processing system gas compressor.

The sample lines are shielded to reduce radiation exposure to personnel in the sample room.

Shielding is designed to reduce the radiation level to 15 mrem/h or less. Additional personnel

protection is provided by an exhaust ventilation hood, sample coolers, pressure relief valves, and an area radiation monitor with high alarm.

A sample system control panel is provided and located inside the primary chemistry lab for

Unit 1 and sample room for Unit 2. Control switches are provided on the panel for control of the

sample isolation valves shown in drawings D-175009, sheets 1 through 3 and D-205009, sheets 1 through 3. The panel is designed to meet the requirements of Institute of Electrical

and Electronics Engineers 279, 323, 344, and Seismic Category I criteria.

A remotely operated postaccident sample panel and shielded pass through (figure 9.3-1) have

been added to obtain samples of highly radioactive reactor coolant. This system has the

capability for taking a pressurized reactor coolant system (RCS) sample from the RCS hot leg

and pressurizer and unpressurized samples from the residual heat exchangers. The

postaccident sample system was installed to meet the requirements of NUREG 0578. Based on

the results of the shielding design study, with subsequent modification and time studies from

drawing postaccident samples, the estimated whol e body or extremities radiation doses to any individual will not exceed 3 rem and 18 3/4 rem, respectively. The postaccident sample has

both local and remote control panels independent of other sample system control panels. The

postaccident sample panel is shown in drawing D-175009, sheet 3, with sample system

connection points shown in sheet 1.

As documented in NRC SERs (1)(2)(3), postaccident sampling of reactor coolant either conforms to NRC acceptance criteria contained in NUREG-0578, NUREG-0737, and Regulatory Guide 1.97

or deviations have been justified.

Amendments 156 and 148 to the Facility Operating Licenses for Units 1 and 2, respectively, removed the PASS and related administrative controls from the Technical Specifications. The

associated NRC SER (4) states that issuance of these amendments supersedes the PASS-specific requirements imposed by post-TMI confirmatory orders.

In addition to the enclosed sample station, there is also a sample station for process streams

that will not contain radioactive materials. As shown in drawings D-175009, sheets 1 through 3

and D-205009, sheets 1 through 3, these streams include the steam line sample process

streams and the steam generator sample streams.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-6 REV 25 4/14 Because of the potential for radioactively contaminated samples being drawn from the steam

generators, the steam generator sample streams are routed to the enclosed sample station

before being routed to the open sample station. These sample streams are continuously

monitored for radioactivity by a scintillation c ounter and holdup tank assembly. Upon reaching a high radiation level, the isolation valves between the hooded and unhooded sample stations are

automatically closed. Each steam generator is then individually sampled, within the hooded

station, to determine the source of radioactivity. This procedure will minimize the amount of

liquid containing radioactivity that is released to the environment through the steam generator

blowdown treatment systems.

Steam generator sample temperature control is accomplished by two stages of cooling. The

first stage of cooling is through roughing coolers, followed by a second stage of cooling in a

refrigerator compressor condensing unit. The refrigerator compressor condenser rejects its

heat through a closed cooling system to the component cooling water system.

All process sample lines penetrating the containment boundary are protected by automatic

valves that close on the receipt of a high radiation signal on any one of the three steam

generator blowdown sample lines. The valves are capable of remote closure from the control

room.

Portions of the sample system as shown on drawings D-175009, sheets 1 through 3 and

D-205009, sheets 1 through 3 are safety-related, Seismic Category I to provide for containment

isolation and to interface with other safety-related systems. The remainder of the sample

system is nonsafety related, nonseismic. The boundaries are specified on drawings D-175009, sheets 1 through 3 and D-205009, sheets 1 through 3. The safety-related portions of the

sample system were designed to the following codes and standards:

Piping, tubing, and fittings ASME III Valves ASME III The nonsafety-related portions were designed to the following codes and standards:

Sample pressure vessels ASME VIII Piping, tubing, and fittings ANSI B31.1 Valves ANSI B31.1

The sample coolers are located in the nonsafety-related portion of the system. The design

requirements for the sample coolers are identified in table 3.2-1.

The postaccident sampling system is nonseismic.

The NSSS sampling system is not necessary to ensure either the integrity of the reactor coolant

pressure boundary or the capability to shut down the reactor.

The process sampling system is proved operable by its use during normal plant operation.

Grab samples are taken to verify the proper operation of the continuous samplers. Portions of

the system normally closed to flow can be tested to ensure the operability and integrity of the system.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-7 REV 25 4/14 Local temperature indicators after the high temperature and high pressure sample heat

exchangers determine the sample temperature before a sample is drawn in a sample sink.

Local pressure indicators after the high temperature and high pressure sample heat exchangers

guide the adjustment of any throttling valves. Pr essure reduction valves are provided to protect the equipment and operators.

9.3.2.2.2 Turbine Plant Analyzer Sampling Section The turbine plant analyzer sampling section draws continuous samples from the turbine cycle

for automatic or manual water quality analysis. Sample inlet conditions are listed in table 9.3-4.

The turbine plant analyzer station is located in the turbine building. This station contains

sample pressure reducing and cooling equipment including valves, pressure regulators, pressure indicators, flow regulators, piping grab sample sinks, and continuous analyzers for

conductivity, dissolved oxygen, and pH. Recorders, indicators, and an annunciator to alarm

abnormal conditions are also located at this station.

9.3.3 EQUIPMENT

AND FLOOR DRAINAGE SYSTEM 9.3.3.1 Design Bases The equipment and floor drainage system ensures that waste liquids, valve and pump leakoffs, tank drains, etc., are directed to the proper area for processing or disposal. The drains are

separated according to their activity and quality. Drains containing tritiated water are collected

and deposited in the waste processing system. Drains containing nontritiated water and

nontritiated, chromated water are also collected and recycled or disposed of, according to the

needs of the water system.

The system piping is designed to transport fluids during normal and abnormal conditions. Drain

headers are large enough to accommodate the normal drain flow and minimize the possibility of

fouling. Lower elevation sumps are sized to collect excess floor drainages; the sump pumps

then transfer drainage to the waste processing system. An evaluation of radiological

considerations of this system during normal operation is presented in chapter 11.

9.3.3.2 System Description Each floor of the auxiliary building and containment (drawings D-175005; D-175004, sheets 1

and 2; and D-205004, sheets 1 and 2) is supplied with a separate drain header for the tritiated

water drains and for the nontritiated water drains found on that level. The floor drain header

and equipment drain header are provided with runni ng traps to provide loop seals to prevent spreading of radioactive gasses in the auxiliary building. This gas migration can be further

reduced by exhausting the equipment drain and the floor drain running traps located in the

chemical drain tank room via negative pressure uni ts to the radwaste area ventilation system. A maximum of three drain headers for each level are installed. The lower floor of the auxiliary FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-8 REV 25 4/14 building has two drain collection tanks, the floor drain tank and the waste holdup tank, which

collect most of the drains from the floors above. Some drains are routed to sumps which pump

to one or both of the drain collection tanks for processing. The sump contents are then pumped

to the waste processing system. Drains in the containment flow to the reactor coolant drain

tank or to the containment sump. They are then pumped to the waste processing system.

9.3.3.3 Design Evaluation The equipment and floor drainage system accommodat es the auxiliary building and containment drains during each normal mode of plant operation. It is mainly a passive system required to

function at all times. Because the drain headers are not pressurized, a line rupture is unlikely.

Plugging of the header is minimized by installing main headers large enough to accommodate

more than the design flow and by making the flow path as straight as possible. Main headers

are at least 4 in. in diameter.

The volume of the floor drain tank is 10,000 gal.

[HISTORICAL] [

Under normal operation it is expected that 51,000 gal/year of liquid wastes will be processed through the tank for a single unit. This

consists of the following flows:

Decontamination water 15,000 gal/year Laboratory equipment rinses 16,000 gal/year Nonrecyclable reactor coolant 7000 gal/year Nonreactor grade leaks 13,000 gal/year

This corresponds to a daily average flowrate of ~140 ga l/day. With a single unit feeding the floor drain tank, and assuming filling for 30 days, the tank will be about half full at processing.

In addition to the above, consideration was also given to fabrication, standardization, and layout criteria in finally sizing the tank.

] Sumps and sump pumps in the auxiliary building lower elevations collect drainage from the floor

drain system and discharge to the waste proce ssing system. Each of the low-head safety injection pump rooms, the containment spray pump rooms, and the high-head safety injection pump rooms is watertight and is protected by an individual sump containing two nonsafety-related sump pumps which are powered from the same electrical train as the pumps they are

protecting. Each sump receives only drainage from the individual pump room that it is

protecting.

Each sump pump has a design flowrate of 100 gal/min. Each sump is equipped with a

mechanical alternator and high level alarm. When the level in the sump rises to within 13 in. of

the cover, the leading pump is started. An indicator light on the control board signifies that one

pump is running. If the leading pump cannot handle the full flow of incoming liquid and the level

rises to within 12 in. of the cover, the lagging pump starts and an indicator light on the control

board signifies that both pumps are running. If both pumps are unable to handle the load and

the level rises to within 6 in. of the cover, an alarm is sounded in the control room. If the leading

pump alone is able to reduce the level in the sump to the pump cutoff point, the mechanical

alternator will then cause the lagging pump to become the leading pump for the next required

operation. The liquid in these sumps is pumped to the waste processing system.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-9 REV 25 4/14 The watertight rooms protect each pump from flooding from outside the room. Frequency of

sump pump operation, one-pump versus two-pump operation, and sump high level alarms will

indicate leaks within the individual pump rooms and will provide the operator with a gross

indication of the magnitude of the leak.

9.3.3.4 Tests and Inspections

[HISTORICAL] [

Each drain header is flushed and inspected with regard to leaktightness, flow capacity, and flow path. Pumps and level switches are tested fo r start and stop at the proper sump levels. Piping

and valves are inspected for leaktightn ess, flow paths, and mechanical operability.

] 9.3.3.5 Instrumentation and Control Level switches and indicators are provided in the control room to control stopping and starting of

pumps and to indicate a flood condition of a residual heat removal pump or containment spray system pump compartment. The waste processing system radiation monitor (R-18) is described

in paragraph 11.4.2.2.11.

9.3.3.6 Nonradioactive Auxiliary Building Sump Transfer A manual mode of operation exists which a llows nonradioactive drainage in the auxiliary building sumps to be transferred to the turbine building sumps. This mode also allows for

transfer of service water from containment components to the turbine building sump to support

component maintenance during an outage. The transfer path to the nonradioactive sump is

established using a CTMT service penetration under administrative controls. To accomplish a

transfer, the handswitches for the nonradioactive auxiliary building sump pumps are placed in

the "pull-to-lock" position. This overrides the automatic sump pump operation described in

paragraph 9.3.3.3 and allows these sumps to be selectively aligned with turbine building sumps.

In order to align the auxiliary building nonradioactive sumps to the turbine building sumps, cross-connect valve N1G21V325/ N2G21V320 must be unlocked and opened. Subsequent to

opening this cross-connect valve, the handswitch for the desired pump may be removed from

the "pull-to-lock" position and started as required. After the nonradioactive drainage has been

pumped to the turbine building sump, the pump is stopped and the handswitch returned to the "pull-to-lock" position. Cross-connect valve N1G21V325/N2G21V320 is then closed and locked

to ensure that no fluid is unintentionally transferred to the turbine building sumps.

9.3.4 CHEMICAL

AND VOLUME CONTROL SYSTEM AND LIQUID POISON SYSTEM 9.3.4.1 Chemical and Volume Control System The CVCS shown in drawings D-175039, sheets 1 through 7 and D-205039, sheets 1 through 5

is designed to provide the following services to the RCS:

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-10 REV 25 4/14 A. Maintenance of programmed water level in the pressurizer, i.e., maintain required water inventory in the RCS.

B. Maintenance of seal water injection flow to the reactor coolant pumps.

C. Control of water chemistry conditions, activity level, soluble chemical neutron absorber concentration, and makeup.

D. Processing of effluent reactor coolant to effect recovery and reuse of soluble chemical neutron absorber and makeup water.

E. Emergency core coolant [part of the system is shared with the emergency core cooling system (ECCS)].

9.3.4.1.1 Design Bases Quantitative design bases are given in table 9.3-5 with qualitative descriptions given below.

A. Reactivity Control

The CVCS regulates the concentration of chemical neutron absorber in the reactor coolant to control reactivity changes resulting from the change in reactor

coolant temperature between cold shutdown and hot full power operation, burnup

of fuel and burnable poisons, and xenon transients.

Reactor makeup control is as follows:

1. The CVCS is capable of borating the RCS through any of three flow paths and from any of three boric acid sources.
2. The amount of boric acid stored in the CVCS always exceeds that amount required to borate the RCS to cold shutdown concentration, assuming that the control assembly with the highest reactivity worth is

stuck in its fully withdrawn position. This amount of boric acid also

exceeds the amount required to bring the reactor to hot shutdown and to

compensate for subsequent xenon decay.

3. The CVCS is capable of counteracting inadvertent positive reactivity insertion caused by the maximum boron dilution accident (chapter 15).

B. Regulation of Reactor Coolant Inventory

The CVCS maintains the coolant inventory in the RCS within the allowable pressurizer level range for all normal modes of operation including startup from

cold shutdown, full power operation, and plant cooldown. This system also has

sufficient makeup capacity to maintain the minimum required inventory in the

event of minor RCS leaks. (See the plant Technical Specifications for a

discussion of maximum allowable RCS leakage.)

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-11 REV 25 4/14 The CVCS flowrate is based on the requirement that it permit the RCS to be heated to or cooled from hot standby condition at the design rate and maintain

pressurizer level within the limits of the operating band.

C. Reactor Coolant Purification

The CVCS removes fission and activation products (other than tritium) from the reactor coolant during operation of the reactor. The CVCS can also remove

excess lithium from the reactor coolant, keeping the lithium concentration within

the desired limits for pH control. (See table 5.2-22.)

Tritium is produced within the fuel by ternary fission and from neutron reactions with the soluble boron, the lithium used for the pH control, and naturally occurring

deuterium within the coolant. The lithium concentration is maintained within the

desired range by the addition of Li 7 OH and by a cation or mixed-bed demineralizer that will remove any excess of lithium produced by the B 10 (n,)Li 7 reaction. The Li 6 (n,)T reaction is controlled by limiting the Li 6 impurity to 0.1 atomic percent. The contributions from these sources are slight, as indicated in

appendix 11A. As can be seen, the primary sources of tritium in the coolant are from ternary fission and the B 10 (n,2)T reaction with the boron in the coolant.

Once the tritium is in the coolant, the only method of controlling the concentration is by dilution of the primary coolant. There is a letdown from the primary coolant

system to the CVCS of 135 gal/min (m aximum). Thus tritium is distributed throughout the recycle holdup tanks, the boric acid tanks, and the reactor

makeup water storage tank. During refueling operations some water is

exchanged between the RCS and the refueling water storage tank. There is also

some exchange of water with the spent-fuel pool. Without exchange of any of

this water with the environment (complete holdup of tritium) the coolant

concentration would reach the levels given in appendix 11A.1.5. Actual tritium

concentrations will depend on plant operating parameters, such as leakage (requiring makeup) and planned releases of tritiated water.

The CVCS is capable of removing fission and activation products, in ionic form or as particulates, from the reactor coolant in order to provide access to those

process lines carrying reactor coolant during operation and to reduce activity

releases due to leaks.

D. Chemical Additions for Corrosion Control

The CVCS provides a means for adding chemicals (batch addition) to the RCS which control the pH of the coolant during initial startup and subsequent

operation, scavenge oxygen from the coolant during startup, and control the

oxygen level of the reactor coolant due to radiolysis during all operations

subsequent to startup.

Chemicals may also be added on a continuous basis to control stress corrosion cracking in Alloy 600 materials and to reduce RCS radiation levels.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-12 REV 25 4/14 The CVCS is capable of maintaining the oxygen content and pH of the reactor coolant within limits specified in table 5.2-22.

The dilution effect of chemical addition (both batch and continuous) must be compensated for in selecting the proper reactor makeup boron concentration as

discussed in paragraph 9.3.4.1.1A.

E. Seal Water Injection

The CVCS is able to supply filtered water continuously to each reactor coolant pump seal, as required by the reactor coolant pump design.

F. Emergency Core Cooling

The centrifugal charging pumps in the CVCS also serve as the high-head safety injection pumps in the ECCS. Other than the centrifugal charging pumps and

associated piping and valves, the CVCS is not required to function during a

loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). During a LOCA, the CVCS is isolated except

for the centrifugal charging pumps and the piping in the safety injection path.

9.3.4.1.2 System Description The CVCS is shown in drawings D-175039, sheets 1 through 7 and D-205039, sheets 1 through

5, with design parameters listed in table 9.3-5. The CVCS consists of several subsystems: the

charging, letdown, and seal water system; the chemical control, purification, and makeup

system; and the boron recycle system.

9.3.4.1.2.1 Charging, Letdown, and Seal Water System.

The charging and letdown functions of the CVCS are employed to maintain a programmed water level in the RCS pressurizer, thus maintaining proper reactor coolant inventory during all phases of plant

operation. This is achieved by means of a continuous feed and bleed process, during which the

feed rate is automatically controlled on the basis of pressurizer water level. The bleed rate can

be chosen to suit various plant operational requirements by selecting the proper combination of

letdown orifices in the letdown flow path. This selection is made through remote manual

operation of valves located in the parallel orificed paths as discussed in paragraph 9.3.4.1.2.2.4.

Reactor coolant is discharged to the CVCS from the reactor coolant loop piping upstream of the

reactor coolant pump; it then flows through the shell side of the regenerative heat exchanger, where its temperature is reduced by heat transfer to the charging flow passing through the

tubes. The coolant then experiences a large pressure reduction as it passes through a letdown

orifice and flows through the tube side of the letdown heat exchanger, where its temperature is further reduced to the operating temperature of the mixed-bed demineralizers (140

°F). Downstream of the letdown heat exchanger a second pressure reduction occurs. This second pressure reduction is performed by the low-pressure letdown valve, the function of which is to

maintain upstream pressure which prevents flashing downstream of the letdown orifices.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-13 REV 25 4/14 The coolant then flows through one of the mixed-bed demineralizers. The flow may then pass

through the cation bed demineralizer, which is used intermittently when additional purification of

the reactor coolant is required. The cation bed demineralizer flow is limited to a maximum of

60 gal/min.

During boric acid storage and release operations, especially during load follow, part or all of the

letdown flow leaving the demineralizers is di rected to the boron thermal regeneration system (BTRS), discussed in paragraph 9.3.4.2. The coolant then flows through the reactor coolant

filter and into the volume control tank through a spray nozzle in the top of the tank. The gas

space in the volume control tank may be continuously purged with hydrogen. Subsection 11.3.4

contains descriptions of operation with and without continuous purge. The partial pressure of

hydrogen in the volume control tank determines the concentration of hydrogen dissolved in the

reactor coolant.

The charging pumps normally take suction from the volume control tank and return the cooled, purified reactor coolant to the RCS through the charging line. Normal charging flow is handled

by one of the three charging pumps. The bulk of the charging flow is pumped back to the RCS

through the tube side of the regenerative heat exchanger. The letdown flow in the shell side of

the regenerative heat exchanger raises the charging flow to a temperature approaching the

reactor coolant temperature. The flow is then injected into a cold leg of the RCS. Two charging paths are provided from a point downstream of the regenerative heat exchanger. A flow path is

also provided from the regenerative heat exchanger outlet to the pressurizer spray line. An

air-operated valve in the spray line is employed to provide auxiliary spray to the vapor space of the pressurizer during plant cooldown. This provides a means of cooling the pressurizer near

the end of plant cooldown, when the reactor coolant pumps are not operating.

A portion of the charging flow (nominally 8 gal/min per reactor coolant pump) is directed to the reactor coolant pumps through a seal water injection filter. It is directed down to a point

between the pump shaft bearing and the thermal barrier cooling coil. Here the flow splits and a

portion (nominally 5 gal/min per pump) enters the RCS through the labyrinth seals and thermal

barrier. The remainder of the flow is directed up the pump shaft, cooling the lower bearing, and

to the No. 1 seal leakoff. The No. 1 seal leakoff flow discharges to a common manifold, exits

from the containment, and then passes through the seal water return filter and the seal water

heat exchanger to the suction side of the charging pumps, or by alternate path to the volume

control tank. A check valve in the spool piece between the reactor coolant pumps and the No. 1

seal leakoff line prevents reverse flow through the seal. A very small portion of the seal flow

leaks through to the No. 2 seal. A No. 3 seal provides a final barrier to leakage to containment

atmosphere. The No. 2 seal leakoff flow is discharged to the reactor coolant drain found in the

waste processing system, and the No. 3 seal leakoff flow is discharged to the containment

sump.

An alternate letdown path from the RCS is provided in the event that the normal letdown path is

inoperable. Reactor coolant can be discharged from a cold leg and flows through the tube side

of the excess letdown heat exchanger, where it is cooled by component cooling water flowing

through the shell side. Downstream of the heat exchanger, a remote manual control valve

controls the excess letdown flow. The flow normally joins the No. 1 seal discharge manifold and

passes through the seal water return filter and heat exchanger to the suction side of the

charging pumps. The excess letdown flow can also be directed to the reactor coolant drain

tank. When the normal letdown line is not available, the normal purification path is also not in FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-14 REV 25 4/14 operation. Therefore, this alternate condition would allow continued power operation for limited

periods of time dependent on RCS chemistry and activity. The excess letdown flow path is also

used to provide additional letdown capability during the final stages of plant heatup. This path

removes some of the excess reactor coolant due to expansion of the system as a result of the

RCS temperature increase. In this case, the excess letdown is diverted to the reactor coolant

drain tank.

Surges in RCS inventory due to load changes are accommodated for the most part in the

pressurizer. The volume control tank provides surge capacity for reactor coolant expansion not

accommodated by the pressurizer. If the water level in the volume control tank exceeds the

normal operating range, a proportional controller modulates a three-way valve downstream of

the reactor coolant filter to divert a portion of the letdown to the recycle holdup tanks in the

boron recycle system. If the high level limit in the volume control tank is reached, an alarm is

actuated in the control room and the letdown is completely diverted to the recycle holdup tanks.

The boron recycle system (paragraph 9.3.4.1.2.3) can be used to receive and process reactor coolant effluent for reuse of the boric acid and purified water. The system decontaminates the

effluent by means of demineralization and gas stripping and uses evaporation to separate and

recover the boric acid and reactor makeup water.

Low level in the volume control tank initiates makeup from the reactor makeup control system.

If the reactor makeup control system does not supply sufficient makeup to keep the volume

control tank level from falling to a lower level, an emergency low level signal causes the suction

of the charging pumps to be transferred to the refueling water storage tank.

9.3.4.1.2.2 Chemical Control, Purification, and Makeup System.

The pH control, oxygen control, reactor coolant purification, and chemical shim and reactor coolant makeup of this system are discussed below.

9.3.4.1.2.2.1 The pH Control.

The pH control chemical employed is lithium hydroxide. This chemical is chosen for its compatibility with the materials and water chemistry of borated water/stainless steel/zirconium/inconel systems. In addition, Li 7 is produced in the core region due to irradiation of the dissolved boron in the coolant.

The concentration of Li 7 in the RCS is maintained in the range specified for pH control (table 5.2-22). If the concentration exceeds this range, as it may during the early stages of core

life, the cation bed demineralizer is employed in the letdown line in series operation with a

mixed bed demineralizer. Since the amount of lithium to be removed is small and its buildup

can be readily calculated, the flow through the cation bed demineralizer is not required to be full

letdown flow. As an alternate, a nonlithiated mixed-bed demineralizer may be used to remove

the lithium. If the concentration of Li 7 is below the specified limits, lithium hydroxide can be introduced into the RCS via the charging flow. The solution is prepared in the laboratory and

poured into the chemical mixing tank. Reactor makeup water is then used to flush the solution

to the suction manifold of the charging pumps.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-15 REV 25 4/14 9.3.4.1.2.2.2 Oxygen Control.

During reactor startup from the cold condition, hydrazine is employed as an oxygen scavenging agent. The hydraz ine solution is introduced into the RCS in the same manner as described above for the pH control agent. Hydrazine is not employed at any time other than startup from the cold shutdown state.

Dissolved hydrogen is employed to control and scavenge oxygen produced due to radiolysis of

water in the core region. Sufficient partial pressure of hydrogen is maintained in the volume

control tank so that the specified equilibrium concentration of hydrogen is maintained in the

reactor coolant. A pressure control valve maintains a minimum pressure in the vapor space of

the volume control tank. This valve can be adjusted to provide the correct equilibrium hydrogen

concentration (25 to 50 cm 3 hydrogen at STP/kg water for power operation). If operating without continuous VCT purge as described in subsection 11.3.4, the pressure control valve

may be isolated and hydrogen pressure controlled by manual operation as necessary to

maintain the required partial pressure of hydrogen.

9.3.4.1.2.2.3 Reactor Coolant Purification.

Mixed-bed demineralizers are provided in the letdown line to provide cleanup of the letdown flow. The demineralizers remove ionic corrosion products and certain fission products. One demineralizer is in continuous service and can be

supplemented intermittently by the cation bed demineralizer, if necessary, for additional purification. The cation resin removes principally cesium and lithium isotopes from the purification flow. The second mixed-bed demineralizer serves as a standby unit for use if the

operating demineralizer becomes exhausted during operation.

A further cleanup feature is provided for use during cold shutdown and residual heat removal.

A remotely operated valve admits a bypass flow fr om the residual heat removal system into the letdown line upstream of the letdown heat exchanger. The flow passes through the heat

exchanger, through a mixed-bed demineralizer and the reactor coolant filter to the volume

control tank. The fluid is then returned to the RCS via the normal charging route.

Filters are provided at various locations to ensure filtration of particulate and resin fines and to

protect the seals on the reactor coolant pumps.

Fission gases can be removed from the system by purging the volume control tank gas space

with hydrogen to the gaseous waste processing system.

9.3.4.1.2.2.4 Chemical Shim and Reactor Coolant Makeup.

The soluble neutron absorber (boric acid) concentration is controlled by the BTRS and by the reactor makeup control system.

The reactor makeup control system is also used to maintain proper reactor coolant inventory.

For emergency boration and makeup, the capability exists to provide refueling water or 4-wt-

percent boric acid to the suction of the charging pump.

The boric acid is stored in two boric acid tanks. Two boric acid transfer pumps are provided, with one pump normally aligned to provide boric acid to the boric acid blender and the second

pump in reserve. On a demand signal by the r eactor makeup control system, the pump starts and delivers boric acid to the boric acid blender. The pump can also be used to recirculate the

boric acid tank fluid.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-16 REV 25 4/14 The reactor makeup water pumps, taking suction from the reactor makeup water storage tank, are employed for various makeup and flushing operations throughout the systems. One of

these pumps also starts on demand from the reac tor makeup control system and provides flow to the boric acid blender. For a description of the reactor makeup water system see

subsection 9.2.7.

The flow from the boric acid blender is directed to either the suction manifold of the charging

pumps or the volume control tank through the letdown line and spray nozzle.

During reactor operation, changes are made in the reactor coolant boron concentration for the

following conditions:

A. Reactor startup - Boron concentration must be decreased from shutdown concentration to achieve criticality.

B. Load follow - Boron concentration must be either increased or decreased to compensate for the xenon transient following a change in load.

C. Fuel burnup - Boron concentration must be decreased to compensate for fuel burnup, except as offset by (E) below.

D. Cold shutdown - Boron concentration must be increased to the cold shutdown concentration.

E. Burnable poison depletion - Boron concentration must be increased to compensate for burned poison depletion.

The BTRS is used to control boron concentration to compensate for xenon transients during

load follow operations. Boron thermal regeneration can also be used during dilution operations

to reduce the amount of effluent to be process ed by the boron recycle system portion of the CVCS.

The reactor makeup control system consists of a group of instruments arranged to provide a

manually preselected makeup composition to the charging F1-6 pump suction header or the

volume control tank. The makeup control functions are those of maintaining desired operating

fluid inventory in the volume control tank and adjusting reactor coolant boron concentration for

reactivity control.

A. Automatic Makeup (F1)

The automatic makeup mode of operation of the reactor makeup control system provides boric acid solution preset to match the boron concentration in the RCS.

The automatic makeup compensates for minor leakage of reactor coolant without

causing significant changes in the coolant boron concentration.

Under normal plant operating conditions, the mode selector switch and makeup stop valves are set in the automatic makeup position. A present low level signal

from the volume control tank level controller causes the automatic makeup

control action to start a reactor makeup water pump, start a boric acid transfer FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-17 REV 25 4/14 pump, open the makeup stop valve to the charging pump suction, open the

concentrated boric acid control valve, and open the reactor makeup water control

valve. The flow controllers then blend the makeup stream according to the

preset concentration. Makeup addition to the charging pump suction header

causes the water level in the volume control tank to rise. At a preset high level

point, the makeup is stopped, the reactor makeup water pump stops, the reactor

makeup water control valve closes, the boric acid transfer pump stops, the

concentrated boric acid control valve closes, and the makeup stop valve to

charging pump suction closes.

If the automatic makeup fails or is not aligned for operation and the tank level continues to decrease, a low-level alarm is actuated. Manual action may correct

the situation, or, if the level continues to decrease, an emergency low level signal

from both channels opens the stop valves in the refueling water supply line to the

charging pumps and closes the stop valves in the volume control tank outlet line.

B. Dilution (F2)

The dilute mode of operation permits the addition of a preselected quantity of reactor makeup water at a preselected flowrate to the RCS. The operator sets

the mode selector switch to dilute, the reactor makeup water flow controller

setpoint to the desired flowrate, and the reactor makeup water batch integrator to

the desired quantity, and he then initiates system start. This opens the reactor

makeup water control valve to the volume control tank and starts a reactor

makeup water pump which will deliver water to the volume control tank. From

here the water goes to the charging pump suction header. Excessive rise of the

volume control tank water level is prevented by automatic actuation (by the tank

level controller) of a three-way diversion valve which routes the reactor coolant

letdown flow to the recycle holdup tanks. When the preselected quantity of water

has been added, the batch integrator causes the pump to stop and the control

valve to close.

Dilution can also be accomplished by operating the BTRS in the boron storage mode.

C. Alternate Dilution (F3)

The alternate dilute mode of operation is similar to the dilute mode, except that a portion of the dilution water flows directly to the charging pump suction and a

portion flows into the volume control tank via the spray nozzle and then flows to

the charging pump suction. Dilution water can be directed entirely to the

charging pump suction, if desired, by manually closing the makeup water control

valve to the VCT.

D. Boration (F4)

The borate mode of operation permits the addition of a preselected flowrate to the RCS. The operator sets the mode selection switch to borate, the

concentrated boric acid flow controller setpoint to the desired flowrate, and the FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-18 REV 25 4/14 concentrated boric acid batch integrator to the desired quantity, and he then

initiates system start. This opens the makeup stop valve to the charging pumps

suction and starts the boric acid solution to the charging pumps suction header.

The total quantity added in most cases is so small that it has only a minor effect

on the volume control tank level. When the preset quantity of concentrated boric

acid solution is added, the batch integrator stops the boric acid transfer pump

and closes the makeup stop valve to the suction of the charging pumps.

Boration can also be accomplished by operating the BTRS in the boron release mode.

E. Manual (F5)

The manual mode of operation permits the addition of a preselected quantity and blend of boric acid solution to the refueling water storage tank, the spent-fuel

pool, or the recycle holdup tanks in the boron recycle system. While it is in the

manual mode of operation, automatic makeup to the RCS is precluded. The

discharge flow path must be prepared by opening manual valves in the desired

path.

The operator then sets the mode selector switch to manual, the boric acid and reactor makeup water flow controllers to the desired flowrates, and the boric acid

and reactor makeup water batch integrators to the desired quantities, and he

then actuates the makeup start switch. The start switch actuates the boric acid

flow control valve and the reactor makeup water flow control valve to the boric

acid blender and starts the preselected reactor makeup water pump and the

boric acid transfer pump.

When the preset quantities of boric acid and reactor makeup water have been added, the pumps stop and the boric acid and reactor makeup water flow control

valves close. This operation may be stopped manually by actuating the makeup

stop switch.

If either batch integrator is satisfied before the other has recorded its required total, the pump and valve associated with the integrator that has been satisfied

will terminate flow. The flow controlled by the other integrator will continue until

that integrator is satisfied.

F. Alarm Functions (F6)

The reactor makeup control is provided with alarm functions to call the operator's attention to the following conditions:

1. Deviation of reactor makeup water flowrate from the control setpoint.
2. Deviation of concentrated boric acid flowrate from control setpoint.
3. High level in the volume control tank. This alarm indicates that the level in the tank is approaching high level and a resulting 100-percent diversion FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-19 REV 25 4/14 of the letdown stream to the recycle holdup tanks in the boron recycle system.

4. Low level in the volume control tank. This alarm indicates that the level in the tank is approaching emergency low level and resulting realignment of

charging pump suction to the refueling water storage tank.

9.3.4.1.2.3 Boron Recycle System.

The boron recycle system can be used to receive and recycles reactor coolant effluent for reuse of the boric acid and makeup water. The system decontaminates the effluent by means of demineralization and gas stripping and uses

evaporation to separate and recover the boric acid and makeup water.

The system is designed to collect the excess reactor coolant that results from the following plant

operation during one core cycle (approximately 1 year):

A. Dilution for core burnup from approximately 1200-ppm boron at beginning of a core cycle to approximately 100 ppm near the end of a core cycle (dilution from 100- to 10-ppm boron is handled by the thermal regeneration demineralizers in

the BTRS).

B. Hot shutdowns and startups. Four hot shutdowns are assumed to take place during a core cycle.

C. Cold shutdowns and startups. Three cold shutdowns are assumed to take place during a core cycle.

D. Refueling shutdown and startup.

The boron recycle system is designed to process the total volume of water collected during a

core cycle as well as short term surges. The design surge is that produced by a cold shutdown

and subsequent startup during the latter part of a core cycle.

Water is also collected from the following sources:

A. Volume control tank pressure relief (CVCS).

B. Boric acid blender (CVCS) - Provides storage of boric acid if a boric acid tank must be emptied for maintenance. The boric acid solution is stored in a recycle

holdup tank after first being diluted with reactor makeup water by the blender.

The boric acid concentration is reduced to ensure against precipitation of the

boric acid in the unheated recycle holdup tank.

C. ECCS flush - Accepts flush water from safety injection lines.

D. Waste processing system - Provides capability for using the recycle evaporator as a waste evaporator and vice versa.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-20 REV 25 4/14 E. Spent-fuel pool pumps (spent-fuel pool cooling and cleanup system) - Provide a means of storing the fuel transfer canal water in case maintenance is required on

the transfer equipment.

F. Valve leakoffs and equipment drains.

The water collected by the boron recycle system contains dissolved gases, boric acid, and suspended solids. Based on reactor operations with 1 percent of the rated core thermal power

being generated by fuel elements with defective cladding, the boron recycle system is designed

to provide sufficient cleanup of the water to satisfy the chemistry requirements of the recycled

reactor makeup water and 4-wt-percent boric acid solution.

The maximum radioactivity concentration buildup in the boron recycle system components is

based on operation of the reactor at its engineered safeguards design rating, with defective fuel

rods generating 1 percent of the rated core thermal power. For each component, the shielding

design considers the maximum buildup on an isot opic basis including only those isotopes which are present in significant amounts. Filtration, demineralization, and evaporation are the means by which the activity concentrations are controlled.

All portions of the boron recycle system that contain concentrated boric acid solution are located within a heated area in order to maintain solution temperature at 65°F. This is 10

°F above the solubility limit for the nominal 4 wt percent boric acid solution. If a portion of the system which normally contains concentrated boric acid solution is not located in a heated area, it must be provided with some other means (e.g., heat tracing) to maintain solution temperature at 65°F. The boron recycle system is manually operated with the exception of a few automatic protection functions. These automatic functions protect t he recycle evaporator feed demineralizers from a high inlet temperature and a high differential pre ssure, prevent a high vacuum from being drawn on the recycle holdup tank, and prevent high acti vity recycle evaporator condensate from being sent to the reactor makeup water storage tank. The boron recycle system has sufficient

instrumentation readouts and alarms to provide the operator information to ensure proper

system operation.

A. Evaporation

When water is directed to the boron recycle system for reprocessing, the flow passes first through the recycle evaporator feed demineralizers and filter and

then into the recycle holdup tanks. The recycle evaporator feed pumps can be

used to transfer liquid from one recycle holdup tank to the other, if desired.

When sufficient water is accumulated to warrant evaporator operation, the

recycle evaporator feed pumps take su ction from the selected recycle holdup tank. The fluid then flows through the recycle evaporator package. Here

hydrogen, nitrogen, and residual fission gases are removed in the stripping

column before the liquid enters the evaporator shell.

These gases are directed to the gas portion of the waste processing system.

During evaporator operation, distillate from the evaporator flows continuously to the reactor makeup water storage tank. Also located in this flow path are the FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-21 REV 25 4/14 recycle evaporator condensate demineralizer and the recycle evaporator

condensate filter.

The evaporator concentrates the boric acid solution until a 4-wt-percent solution is obtained. The accumulated batch is normally transferred directly to the boric

acid tanks through the recycle evaporator concentrates filter. If, for some reason, this batch cannot be discharged to the boric acid tanks, it can be diverted back to

the recycle holdup tanks or to the waste processing system.

Connections are provided so that, if necessary, the recycle evaporator can be used as a waste evaporator and vice versa.

B. Recycle Holdup Tank Venting

Because hydrogen is dissolved in the reactor coolant at approximately one atmosphere overpressure, a portion of the hydrogen along with fission gases will

come out of solution in the recycle holdup tank under the diaphragm. The

hydrogen and fission gases are vented to the waste processing system (gas

portion) or the plant vent stack (via a portable pump) and the radwaste ventilation

system as required. The total integrated flow of hydrogen-bearing water to the

recycle holdup tanks is monitored. An alarm indicates when a sufficient amount

of water has passed to the recycle holdup tanks to require venting of the

accumulated gases.

C. Maintenance Drains

When large amounts of water must be drained from the RCS or the spent-fuel pool (or fuel transfer canal) to the boron recycle system, a recycle holdup tank is

drained of water and vented to the waste processing system. The water can

then be stored in this tank until maintenance is completed and, after checking the

chemistry, returned. After returning the water, the recycle holdup tank is again

vented to the waste processing system.

D. Reactor Makeup Water Cleanup

If the reactor makeup water requires purification, it can be recirculated through the recycle evaporator condensate demineralizer until its chemistry is within

specifications. If further processing is necessary, water from the reactor makeup

water storage tank can be directed through the recycle evaporator condensate

demineralizer and into the recycle holdup tank for reevaporation. Alternatively, reactor makeup water can be directed to the recycle evaporator through its flush

line, bypassing the demineralizer and holdup tank, provided that the reactor

makeup water storage tank is maintained above established minimum level.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-22 REV 25 4/14 E. Waste Processing with the Recycle Evaporator

The recycle evaporator can be used to perform the function of the waste evaporator except that, since heat tracing is not provided for the recycle

evaporator, the boric acid would be concentrated to no more than 4 wt%.

After using the recycle evaporator to process water from the waste processing system, it is thoroughly rinsed out. During initial recycle processing, the

condensate is directed to the waste condensate tank for analysis prior to transfer

to the reactor makeup water storage tank. Depending upon the purity of the

evaporator bottoms, the concentrated boric acid can be transferred to the boric

acid tanks or it can be drummed.

9.3.4.1.2.4 Layout.

The volume control tank is located above the charging pumps to provide sufficient net positive suction head. A ll parts of the charging and letdown system are shielded as necessary to limit dose rates during operation with 1-percent fuel defects assumed.

The regenerative heat exchanger, excess letdown heat exchanger, letdown orifices, and seal

bypass orifices are located within the reacto r containment. All other system equipment is located inside the auxiliary building.

9.3.4.1.2.5 Component Description.

A summary of principal component design parameters is given in table 9.3-6, and safety classifications and design codes are given in section 3.2.

All CVCS piping that handles radioactive liquid is austenitic stainless steel. All piping joints and

connections are welded, except where flanged connections are required to facilitate equipment

removal for maintenance and hydrostatic testing.

9.3.4.1.2.5.1 Charging Pumps.

Three charging pumps are supplied to inject coolant into the RCS. The charging pumps are all of the horizontal, multistage, centrifugal type. All parts in contact with the reactor coolant are fabricated of austenitic stainless steel or other material of

adequate corrosion resistance. There is a minimum flow recirculation line to protect the

centrifugal charging pumps from a closed discharge valve condition.

Charging flowrate is determined from a pressurizer level signal. Charging flow control is

accomplished by a modulating valve on the discharge side of the centrifugal pumps. The

centrifugal charging pumps also serve as high head safety injection pumps in the ECCS.

Only one charging pump will be operable at RCS temperatures below 180°F, except during

pump swap operations. The remaining two chargi ng pumps will have power removed from the pump. This procedure will reduce the likelihood of overpressurizing the RCS due to inadvertent operation of the charging pumps.

9.3.4.1.2.5.2 Boric Acid Transfer Pumps.

Two horizontal, centrifugal pumps are supplied.

One pump is normally aligned to supply boric acid to the boric acid blender, while the second FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-23 REV 25 4/14 serves as a standby. Manual or automatic initia tion of the reactor coolant makeup system will start a pump to provide normal makeup of boric acid solution through the boric acid blender.

Emergency boration, supplying 4-wt-percent boric acid solution directly to the suction of the charging pumps, can be accomplished by manually starting either pump. The transfer pumps

also function to transfer boric acid solution from the batching tank to the boric acid tanks.

The pumps are located in a heated area to prevent crystallization of the boric acid solution. All

parts in contact with the solution are of austenitic stainless steel.

9.3.4.1.2.5.3 Recycle Evaporator Feed Pumps.

Two centrifugal pumps supply feed to the recycle evaporator package from the recycle holdup tanks. Two pumps are supplied for redundancy. A cross-connect pipe is provided between the pumps of Units 1 and 2. The cross-connect allows the pumps to be used to transfer liquid from one holdup tank to either

unit's holdup tanks, to either unit's spent-fuel pool, and to either unit's charging pumps for

transfer into the RCS. The pumps can also be used to recirculate water from the recycle holdup

tanks through the recycle evaporator feed demineralizers for cleanup if required.

9.3.4.1.2.5.4 Regenerative Heat Exchanger.

The regenerative heat exchanger is designed to recover heat from the letdown flow by reheating the charging flow, which reduces thermal shock on the charging penetrations into the reactor coolant loop piping.

The letdown stream flows through the she ll of the regenerative heat exchanger, and the

charging stream flows through the tubes. The unit is constructed of austenitic stainless steel

and is of all welded construction.

The temperatures of both outlet streams from t he heat exchanger are monitored with indication

given in the control room. A high temperature alarm is given on the main control board if the

temperature of the letdown stream exceeds desired limits.

9.3.4.1.2.5.5 Letdown Heat Exchanger.

The letdown heat exchanger cools the letdown stream to the operating temperature of the mi xed-bed demineralizers. Reactor coolant flows through the tube side of the exchanger, while component cooling water flows through the shell side. All surfaces in contact with the reactor coolant are austenitic stainless steel; the shell is

carbon steel.

The low-pressure letdown valve, located downstream of the letdown heat exchanger, maintains

the pressure of the letdown flow, upstream of the heat exchanger, in a range sufficiently high to

prevent two-phase flow.

The letdown temperature control indicates and controls the temperature of the letdown flow

exiting from the letdown heat exchanger. The tem perature sensor, which is part of the CVCS, provides input to the controller in the com ponent cooling system. The exit temperature is controlled by regulating the component cooling water flow through the letdown heat exchanger

by using the control valve located in the component cooling water discharge line. Temperature

indication is provided on the main control board. If the temperature of the letdown stream FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-24 REV 25 4/14 exceeds approximately 140

°F, the flow is diverted to the volume control tank in order to avoid damaging the resin in the mixed bed demineralizer.

9.3.4.1.2.5.6 Excess Letdown Heat Exchanger.

The excess letdown heat exchanger cools reactor coolant letdown flow at a rate which is equivalent to the nominal seal injection flow, which flows downward through the reactor coolant pump labyrinth seals.

The excess letdown heat exchanger can be em ployed either when normal letdown is temporarily out of service to maintain the reactor in operation or when it can be used to

supplement maximum letdown during the final stages of heatup. The letdown flows through the

tube side of the unit, and component cooling water is circulated through the shell. All surfaces

in contact with reactor coolant are austenitic stainless steel, and the shell is carbon steel. All

tube joints are welded.

A temperature detector measures temperature of excess letdown downstream of the excess letdown heat exchanger. Temperature indicati on and high temperature alarm are provided on the main control board.

A pressure sensor indicates the pressure of the excess letdown flow downstream of the excess letdown heat exchanger and excess letdown control valve. Pressure indication is provided on the main control board.

9.3.4.1.2.5.7 Seal Water Heat Exchanger.

The seal water heat exchanger is designed to cool fluid from three sources: reactor coolant pump seal water returning to the CVCS, reactor coolant discharged from the excess letdown heat exchanger, and centrifugal charging pump

bypass flow. Reactor coolant flows through the tube side of the heat exchanger, and

component cooling water is circulated through the shell. The design flowrate is equal to the

sum of the excess letdown flow, maximum design reactor coolant pump seal leakage, and

bypass flow from one centrifugal charging pump.

The unit is designed to cool the above flow to the temperature normally maintained in the volume control tank. All surfaces in contact with

reactor coolant are austenitic stainless steel; the shell is carbon steel.

9.3.4.1.2.5.8 Volume Control Tank.

The volume control tank provides surge capacity for part of the reactor coolant expansion volume not accommodated by the pressurizer. When the level in the tank reaches the high-level setpoint, the remainder of the expansion volume is

accommodated by diversion of the letdown stream to the recycle holdup tanks. It also provides a means for introducing hydrogen into the coolant to maintain the required equilibrium

concentration of 25 to 50 cm 3 hydrogen (at STP/kg water) for power operations, is used for degassing the reactor coolant, and serves as a head tank for the charging pumps.

A spray nozzle located inside the tank on the letdown line nozzle provides liquid to gas contact

between the incoming fluid and the hydrogen atmosphere in the tank.

A remotely operated vent valve, discharging to the gaseous waste processing system, permits removal of gaseous fission products, which are stripped from the reactor coolant and collected

in the gas space of this tank. Relief protection, gas space sampling, and nitrogen purge FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-25 REV 25 4/14 connections are also provided. The tank can also accept the seal water return flow from the

reactor coolant pumps, although this flow normally goes directly to the suction of the charging

pumps.

Volume control tank pressure and temperature are monitored with indication given in the control

room. Alarm is given in the control room for high and low pressure conditions and for high

temperature.

Two level channels govern the water inventory in the volume control tank. These channels

provide local and remote level indication, level alarms, level control, makeup control, and

emergency makeup control.

If the volume control tank level rises above the normal operating range, one channel provides

an analog signal to a proportional controller which modulates the three-way valve downstream

of the reactor coolant filter to maintain the volume control tank level within the normal operating

band. The three-way valve can split letdown flow so that a portion goes to the recycle holdup

tanks and a portion to the volume control tank. The controller would operate in this fashion

during a dilution operation, when reactor makeup water is being fed to the volume control tank

from the reactor makeup control system.

If the modulating function of the channel fails and the volume control tank level continues to

rise, the high level alarm will alert the operator to the malfunction and the letdown flow can be

manually diverted to the holdup tanks. If no action is taken by the operator and the tank level

continues to rise, the full letdown flow will be automatically diverted.

During normal power operation, a low level in the volume control tank initiates automatic

makeup which injects a preselected blend of boron and water into the charging pump suction

header. When the volume control tank is restored to normal, automatic makeup stops.

If the automatic makeup fails or is not aligned for operation and the tank level continues to

decrease, a low-level alarm is actuated. Manual action may correct the situation or, if the level

continues to decrease, an emergency low-level signal from both channels opens the stop valves

in the refueling water supply line and closes the stop valves in the volume control tank outlet

line.

9.3.4.1.2.5.9 Boric Acid Tanks.

The combined boric acid tank capacity is sized to store sufficient boric acid solution for a cold shutdown from full-power operation immediately following refueling with the most reactive control rod not inserted, plus operating margins.

The concentration of boric acid solution in storage is maintained between 4- and 4.4-wt-percent.

Periodic manual sampling and corrective action, if necessary, ensure that these limits are

maintained. As a consequence, measured amounts of boric acid solution can be delivered to

the reactor coolant to control the concentration. The boron concentration limits are specified in

the Technical Requirements Manual (TRM).

A temperature sensor provides temperature m easurement of each tank's contents. Local temperature indication is provided, as well as high and low temperature alarms which are FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-26 REV 25 4/14 indicated on the main control board. The minimum solution temperature is specified in the

TRM.

Two level detectors indicate the level in each boric acid tank. Level indication with high-, low-,

and low-low-level alarms is provided on the main control board. The low-low alarm is set to

indicate the minimum level of boric acid in the tank to ensure sufficient boric acid to provide for

a cold shutdown with one stuck rod. The minimum contained borated water volume is specified

in the TRM.

9.3.4.1.2.5.10 Batching Tank.

The batching tank is used for mixing a makeup supply of boric acid solution for transfer to the boric acid tanks. The tank may also be used for solution storage.

A local sampling point is provided for verifying the solution concentration prior to transferring it

out of the tank. The tank is provided with an agitator to improve mixing during batching

operations and a steam jacket for heating the boric acid solution.

9.3.4.1.2.5.11 Chemical Mixing Tank.

The primary use of the chemical mixing tank is in the preparation of caustic solutions for pH control and hydrazine solution for oxygen scavenging.

9.3.4.1.2.5.12 Recycle Holdup Tanks.

Three recycle holdup tanks provide storage of excess reactor effluents for future reuse, disposal, or processing by the recycle evaporator package.

Each tank has a diaphragm which prevents air fr om dissolving in the tank liquid and prevents

the hydrogen and fission gases under the diaphragm from mixing with the air. The air space in

the tank above the diaphragm is vented to the plant vent.

9.3.4.1.2.5.13 Recycle Evaporator Reagent Tank.

This tank provides a means of adding chemicals to the recycle evaporator package, e.g., for cleanup.

9.3.4.1.2.5.14 Mixed-Bed Demineralizers.

Two flushable, mixed-bed demineralizers assist in maintaining reactor coolant purity. A lithium or hydrogen form cation resin and hydroxyl form anion resin are charged into the demineralizers. Each form of resin removes fission and

corrosion products. The resin bed is designed to reduce the concentration of ionic isotopes in

the purification stream, except for cesium, yttr ium, and molybdenum, by a minimum factor of 10.

In preparation for an outage and during an outage where a release of particulate and soluble

corrosion products is anticipated, a specialty resin, such as a coated weak acid cation resin, may be added to a mixed-bed demineralizer for removal of particulate radio-cobalt and

particulate nickel.

This demineralizer may be used during power operations for reactor coolant Lithium control

during periods when the cation demineralizer or alternate mixed-bed demineralizer are not

available for this purpose.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-27 REV 25 4/14 Each demineralizer has sufficient capacity for approximately one core cycle with 1-percent failed

fuel. One demineralizer serves as a standby uni t for use if the operating demineralizer becomes exhausted during operation.

A temperature sensor measures temperature of the letdown flow downstream of the letdown

heat exchanger and controls the letdown flow to the mixed-bed demineralizers by means of a three-way valve. If the letdown temperature ex ceeds the allowable resin operating temperature, the flow is automatically bypassed around the demineralizers. Temperature indication and high alarm are provided on the main control board. The air-operated, three-way valve failure mode

directs flow to the volume control tank.

9.3.4.1.2.5.15 Cation Bed Demineralizer.

A flushable cation resin bed in the hydrogen form is located downstream of the mixed-bed demineralizer s and is used intermittently to control the concentration of Li 7 which builds up in the coolant from the B 10 (n,)Li 7 reaction. The demineralizer also has sufficient capacity to maintain the cesium-137 concentration in the coolant below 1.0

µCi/cm 3 with 1-percent failed fuel. The resin bed is designed to reduce the concentration of ionic isotopes, particularly cesium, yttrium, and molybdenum, by a minimum factor of 10.

The cation bed demineralizer has sufficient capacity for approximately one core cycle with 1-

percent failed fuel.

9.3.4.1.2.5.16 Recycle Evaporator Feed Demineralizers.

Two flushable, mixed bed demineralizers remove fission products from the fluid directed to the recycle holdup tanks. The demineralizers also provide a means of cleaning the recycle holdup tank contents via

recirculation.

9.3.4.1.2.5.17 Recycle Evaporator Condensate Demineralizer.

A sluicable, mixed-bed resin demineralizer is used to remove any boric acid, other anionic impurities such as chloride and fluoride, cationic impurities such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, and aluminum and also any particulate activity carryover contained in the evaporator condensate. The mixed-bed resin provides the system with the capability to remove a wide range of chemical and radiochemical

contaminants resulting in high quality water for plant operations. Although the bed may become

saturated with boron at the normally low concentration (< 10 ppm) leaving the evaporator, it will

still remove most of the boron if the concentration increases because of an evaporator upset.

The demineralizer also provides a means of cleanup of the reactor makeup water storage tank

contents.

9.3.4.1.2.5.18 Reactor Coolant Filter.

The reactor coolant filter is located on the letdown line upstream of the volume control tank. The filter collects resin fines and particulates from the letdown stream. The nominal flow capacity of the filter is greater than the maximum purification

flowrate.

Two local pressure indicators are provided to show the pressures upstream and downstream of the reactor coolant filter and thus provide filter differential pressure.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-28 REV 25 4/14 9.3.4.1.2.5.19 Seal Water Injection Filters.

Two seal water injection filters are located in parallel in a common line to the reactor coolant pump seals; they collect particulate matter that

could be harmful to the seal faces. Each filter is sized to accept flow in excess of the normal

seal water flow requirements.

A differential pressure indicator monitors the pressure drop across each seal water injection

filter and gives local indication with high differential pressure alarm on the main control board.

9.3.4.1.2.5.20 Seal Water Return Filter.

The filter collects particulates from the reactor coolant pump seal water return and from the excess letdown flow. The filter is designed to pass flow in excess of the sum of the excess letdown flow and the maximum design leakage from the

reactor coolant pump seals.

Two local pressure indicators are provided to show the pressures upstream and downstream of the filter and thus provide differential pressure across the filter.

9.3.4.1.2.5.21 Boric Acid Filter.

The boric acid filter collects particulates from the boric acid solution being pumped from the boric acid tanks. The filter is designed to pass the design flow of two boric acid transfer pumps operating simultaneously.

Local pressure indicators indicate the pressure upstream and downstream of the boric acid filter

and thus provide filter differential pressure.

9.3.4.1.2.5.22 Recycle Evaporator Feed Filter.

This filter collects resin fines and particles from the fluid entering the recycle holdup tanks.

9.3.4.1.2.5.23 Recycle Evaporator Condensate Filter.

This filter collects particulates from the boric acid evaporator condensate stream.

9.3.4.1.2.5.24 Recycle Evaporator Concentrates Filter.

This filter removes particulates from the evaporator concentrate as it leaves the evaporator.

9.3.4.1.2.5.25 Boric Acid Blender.

The boric acid blender promotes thorough mixing of boric acid solution and reactor makeup water for the reactor coolant makeup circuit. The blender consists of a conventional pipe tee fitted with a perforated tube insert. The blender decreases

the pipe length required to homogenize the mixture for taking a representative local sample. A

sample point is provided in the piping just downstream of the blender.

9.3.4.1.2.5.26 Letdown Orifices.

The three letdown orifices are arranged in parallel and serve to reduce the pressure of the letdown stream to a value compatible with the letdown heat exchanger design. Two of the three are sized so that either can pass normal letdown flow of

60 gal/min; the third can pass 45 gal/min. One or both standby orifices may be used with the FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-29 REV 25 4/14 normally operating orifice in order to increase letdown flow, such as during reactor heatup

operations and maximum purification. This arrangement also provides a full standby capacity

for control of letdown flow. Orifices are placed in and taken out of service by remote manual

operation of their respective isolation valves.

A flow monitor provides indication in the control room of the letdown flowrate. A high flow alarm

is provided to indicate flowrates exceeding 140 gal/min.

A low pressure letdown controller controls the pressure downstream of the letdown heat

exchanger to prevent flashing of the letdown liquid. Pressure indication and high pressure

alarm are provided on the main control board.

9.3.4.1.2.5.27 Recycle Evaporator Package.

The recycle evaporator package processes dilute boric acid and produces distillate and approximately 4-wt-percent boric acid stripped of hydrogen, nitrogen, and radioactive gases.

A boric acid solution is fed from the recycl e holdup tanks to the evaporator by the recycle evaporator feed pumps. The feed first passes through a heat exchanger where condensing

steam raises its temperature. The feed then passes into the top of the stripping column. Gases

are stripped off as the feed passes over the packing in the tower in contraflow to stripping steam

from the evaporator. After stripping, the feed is introduced into the evaporator as makeup. The

vapors leaving the boiling pool are stripped of entrained liquid and volatile boron carryover.

Pure vapors are then condensed in the condenser section and pumped from the system. When the desired concentration is reached in the boiling pool, the concentrates are pumped from the system.

Radioactive gases and other noncondensables are discharged from the system into the waste

gas vent header.

The recycle and waste evaporators are identical units and are interconnected so that they serve

as standbys for each other under abnormal conditions.

9.3.4.1.2.5.28 Recycle Holdup Tank Vent Eductor.

The eductor is designed to pull gases from under the diaphragm in the recycle holdup tank. Nitrogen, provided by the waste gas compressor, provides the motive force.

9.3.4.1.2.5.29 Valves.

Valves, other than diaphragm valves, that perform a modulating function are equipped with a stuffing box containing two sets of packing and an intermediate leakoff connection. Valves are normally installed so that, when closed, the high pressure is not on the

packing. Basic material of construction is stainless steel for all valves that handle radioactive

liquid or boric acid solutions.

Isolation valves are provided for all lines entering the reactor containment. These valves are

discussed in detail in subsection 6.2.4.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-30 REV 25 4/14 Relief valves are provided for lines and components that might be pressurized above design

pressure by improper operation or component malfunction.

A. Charging Line Downstream of Regenerative Heat Exchanger

If the charging side of the regenerative heat exchanger is isolated while the hot letdown flow continues at its maximum rate, the volumetric expansion of coolant

on the charging side of the heat exchanger is relieved to the RCS through a

spring-loaded check valve.

The spring in the valve is designed to permit the check valve to open in the event that the differential pressure exceeds the design pressure differential.

B. Letdown Line Downstream of Letdown Orifices

The pressure relief valve downstream of the letdown orifices protects the low-pressure piping and the letdown heat exchanger from overpressure when the

low-pressure piping is isolated. The capacity of the relief valve exceeds the

maximum flowrate through all letdown orifices. The valve set pressure is equal

to the design pressure of the letdown heat exchanger tube side.

C. Letdown Line Downstream of Low Pressure Letdown Valve

The pressure relief valve downstream of the low pressure letdown valve protects the low-pressure piping, demineralizers, and filter from overpressure when this section of the system is isolated. The overpressure may result from leakage

through the low-pressure letdown valve. The capacity of the relief valve exceeds

the maximum flowrate through all letdown orifices. The valve set pressure is

equal to the design pressure of the demineralizers.

D. Volume Control Tank

The relief valve on the volume control tank permits the tank to be designed for a lower pressure than the upstream equipment. This valve has a capacity greater

than the summation of the following items: maximum letdown, maximum seal

water return, excess letdown, and nominal flow from one reactor makeup water

pump. The valve set pressure equals the design pressure of the volume control

tank.

E. Charging Pump Suction

A relief valve on the charging pump suction header relieves pressure that may build up if the suction line isolation valves are closed or if the system is

overpressurized. The valve set pressure is equal to the design pressure of the

associated piping and equipment.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-31 REV 25 4/14 F. Seal Water Return Line (Inside Containment)

This relief valve is designed to relieve overpressurization in the seal water return piping inside the containment if the motor-operated isolation valve is closed. The

valve is designed to relieve the total leakoff flow from the No. 1 seals of the

reactor coolant pumps plus the design excess letdown flow. The valve is set to

relieve at the design pressure of the piping.

G. Seal Water Return Line (Charging Pumps Bypass Flow)

This relief valve protects the seal water heat exchanger and its associated piping from overpressurization. If either of the isolation valves for the heat exchanger is

closed and if the bypass line is closed, the piping could be overpressurized by

the bypass flow from the centrifugal charging pumps. The valve is sized to

handle full bypass flow with all centrifugal pumps running. The valve is set to

relieve at the design pressure of the heat exchanger.

H. Steam Line to Batching Tank

The relief valve on the steam line to the batching tank protects the low-pressure piping and batching tank heating jacket from overpressure when the condensate

return line is isolated. The capacity of the relief valve equals the maximum

expected steam inlet flow. The set pressure equals the design pressure of the

heating jacket.

9.3.4.1.2.5.30 Piping.

All CVCS piping handling radioactive liquid is austenitic stainless steel.

All piping joints and connections are welded, except where flanged connections are required to facilitate equipment removal for maintenance and hydrostatic testing.

9.3.4.1.2.6 System Operation.

The reactor startup, power generation and hot standby operation, and reactor shutdown of the CVCS are discussed below.

9.3.4.1.2.6.1 Reactor Startup.

Reactor startup is defined as the operations which bring the reactor from cold shutdown to normal operating temperature and pressure. It is assumed that:

A. Normal residual heat removal is in progress.

B. The RCS boron concentration is at the cold shutdown concentration.

C. The reactor makeup control system is set to provide makeup at the cold shutdown concentration.

D. The RCS is either water solid or drained to minimum level for the purpose of refueling or maintenance. If the RCS is water solid, system pressure is

controlled by letdown through the residual heat removal system and through the

low pressure letdown valve in the letdown line.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-32 REV 25 4/14 E. The charging and letdown lines of the CVCS are filled with coolant at the cold shutdown boron concentration. The letdown orifice isolation valves are closed.

If the RCS requires filling via dynamic venting, the procedure is as follows:

A. One charging pump is started, which provides blended flow from the reactor makeup control system at the cold shutdown boron concentration. Charging and

letdown flows and seal injection flow to reactor coolant pumps are established.

B. The vents on the head of the reactor vessel and pressurizer are opened.

C. The RCS is filled and the vents closed.

The system pressure is raised using the charging pump and controlled by the low-pressure

letdown valve. When the system pressure is adequate for operation of the reactor coolant

pumps, seal water leakage flow from the pumps is verified and the pumps are operated and vented sequentially until all gases are cleared from the system. Final venting takes place at the

pressurizer.

If the RCS requires filling and venting via use of the reactor coolant vacuum refill system (RCVRS), the procedure is as follows:

Air is removed from the RCS by the RCVRS via a connection to the pressurizer relief tank (PRT) inlet line. Initial conditions are as follows: the RCS level is at midloop and the PRT level

is below the sparging header. The vacuum pump skid suction hose is connected to the PRT

inlet line connection. The RHR flow is adjusted to prevent vortexing and to ensure adequate net

positive suction head (NPSH). The air evacuation path is established by opening the reactor

vessel head vent valves, the pressurizer spray valves, the power-operated relief valve (PORV)

block valves and the PORVs.

After the filling and venting operations are completed, all pressurizer heaters are energized, and

the reactor coolant pumps are employed to heat up the system. After the reactor coolant pumps

are started, pressure control via the residual heat removal system and the low pressure letdown

line is continued as the pressurizer steam bubble is formed. At this point, steam formation in

the pressurizer is accomplished by manual control of the charging flow and automatic pressure

control of the letdown flow. When the pressurizer water level reaches the no-load programmed

setpoint, the pressurizer level control is shifted to control the charging flow to maintain

programmed level. The residual heat removal system is then isolated from the RCS.

The reactor coolant boron concentration is now reduced either by operating the reactor makeup

control system in the dilute mode or by operating the BTRS in the boron storage mode and, when the resin beds are saturated, washing off the beds to the recycle holdup tanks. The

reactor coolant boron concentration is corrected to the point where the control rods may be

withdrawn and criticality achieved. Nuclear heatup may then proceed, with corresponding

manual adjustment of the reactor coolant boron concentration to balance the temperature

coefficient effects and maintain the control rods within their operating range. During heatup, the

appropriate combination of letdown orifices is used to provide necessary letdown flow.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-33 REV 25 4/14 Prior to or during the heating process, the CVCS is employed to obtain the correct chemical

properties in the RCS. The reactor makeup control is operated on a continuing basis to ensure

correct control rod position. Chemicals are added through the chemical mixing tank, as

required, to control reactor coolant chemistry such as pH and dissolved oxygen content.

Hydrogen overpressure is established in the volume control tank to ensure the appropriate

hydrogen concentration in the reactor coolant.

9.3.4.1.2.6.2 Power Generation and Hot Standby Operation.

Base load, load follow, and hot shutdown of this operation are discussed below.

A. Base Load

At a constant power level, the rates of charging and letdown are dictated by the requirements for seal water to the reactor coolant pumps and the normal

purification of the RCS. One charging pump is employed, and charging flow is

controlled automatically from pressurizer level. The only necessary adjustments

in boron concentration are those to compensate for core burnup. These

adjustments are made at infrequent intervals to maintain the control groups

within their allowable limits. Rapid variations in power demand are

accommodated automatically by control rod movement. If variations in power

level occur and the new power level is sustained for long periods, some

adjustment in boron concentration may be necessary to maintain the control

groups within their maneuvering band.

During normal operation, normal letdown flow is maintained and one mixed-bed demineralizer is in service. Reactor coolant samples are taken periodically to

check boron concentration, water quality, pH, and activity level. The charging

pump flow to the RCS is controlled automatically by the pressurizer level control

signal through the discharge header flow control valve.

B. Load Follow

A power reduction will initially cause a xenon buildup followed by xenon decay to a new, lower equilibrium value. The reverse occurs if the power level decreases

and then increases to a new and higher equilibrium value associated with the

amount of the power level change.

The BTRS is normally used to vary the reactor coolant boron concentration to compensate for xenon transients occurring when reactor power level is changed.

The reactor makeup control system may also be used to vary the boron

concentration in the reactor coolant.

The most important intelligence available to the plant operator, enabling him to determine whether dilution or boration of the RCS is necessary, is the position of

the control rods within the maneuvering band. If, for example, the control rods

are moving down into the core and are approaching the bottom of the

maneuvering band, the operator must borate the reactor coolant to bring the rods

outward. If not, the control rods may move into the core beyond the shutdown FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-34 REV 25 4/14 limit. If, on the other hand, the rods are moving out of the core, the operator

dilutes the reactor coolant to keep the rods from moving above the top of the

maneuvering band. Keeping the control rods at the top of the maneuvering band

ensures the capability of immediate return to full power. However, violation of

the upper limit of the maneuvering band is not safety related and is allowed.

With the control rods above the top of the maneuvering band the reactor cannot return to full power immediately; it can return to some rate determined by the

xenon burnout transient.

During periods of plant loading, the reactor coolant expands as its temperature rises. The pressurizer absorbs most of this expansion as the level controller

raises the level setpoint to the increased level associated with the new power

level. The remainder of the excess coolant is let down and is stored in the

volume control tank. During this period, the flow through the letdown orifice

remains constant and the charging flow is reduced by the pressurizer level

control signal, resulting in an increased temperature at the regenerative heat

exchanger outlet. The temperature contro ller downstream from the letdown heat exchanger increases the component cooling water flow to maintain the desired

letdown temperature.

During periods of plant unloading, the charging flow is increased to make up for the coolant contraction not accommodated by the programmed reduction in pressurizer level.

C. Hot Standby and Hot Shutdown

When the reactor is shutdown and the RCS temperature is 350°F, the plant is in the Hot Standby operational mode. When the reactor is shutdown and the

RCS temperature is > 200

°F and < 350

°F, the plant is in the Hot Shutdown operational mode. RCS temperature is normally the result of RCP heat and decay heat additions. Normally RCS tem perature is controlled by the steam dumps or atmospheric relief valves when at higher temperatures. When at lower

temperatures, the RHR system is normally used to control RCS temperature.

Technical Specifications provide additional details regarding plant operational

modes.

Following a normal reactor shutdown or reactor trip, for a finite period of time, the reactor can be returned to some power using only the control rods. Through

design, procedural reactivity management requirements, and Technical

Specification requirements, the reactor maintains a minimum shutdown margin of 1.77% k/k. The shutdown reactivity (assuming no-load Tavg and no change in RCS boron) immediately following a normal reactor shutdown or reactor trip is a result of control rod and shutdown rod insertions, while also accounting for the

reactivity associated with the pre-shutdown power. Subsequently, xenon buildup

following reactor shutdown adds additional shutdown reactivity for approximately

8 h, returns to the initial post trip value in approximately 24 h, and then reduces

shutdown reactivity over the next approximately 72 h. RCS boron

additions/deletions can compensate for the effects of xenon decay/buildup and FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-35 REV 25 4/14 reduction in RCS temperature. The magnitude of xenon effects vary with

pre-shutdown power history status and the operating cycle fuel characteristics.

The core specific Nuclear Design and Core Management manuals should be

referred to for specific information regarding reactivity effects associated with

various plant operational modes.

9.3.4.1.2.6.3 Reactor Shutdown.

Reactor shutdown is defined as the operations that bring the reactor to cold shutdown.

Before initiating a cold shutdown, the RCS hydrogen concentration is reduced by replacing the

volume control tank hydrogen atmosphere with nitrogen by purging to the gaseous waste

processing system. An alternate method of reducing the hydrogen concentration in the RCS is

chemical degassing. Both methods are explained in detail in paragraph 11.3.4.1

Before cooldown and depressurization of the reactor plant is initiated, the reactor coolant boron

concentration is increased to the cold shutdown value. The operator sets the reactor makeup

control to borate, selects the volume of concentrated boric acid solution necessary to perform

the boration, selects the desired flowrate, and actuates makeup start. After the boration is

completed and reactor coolant samples verify that the concentration is correct, the operator

resets the reactor makeup control system for leakage makeup and system contraction at the

shutdown reactor coolant boron concentration.

Contraction of the coolant during cooldown of the RCS results in actuation of the pressurizer

level control to maintain normal pressurizer water level. The charging flow is increased, relative

to letdown flow, and results in a decreasing volume control tank level. The volume control tank

level controller automatically initiates makeup to maintain the inventory.

After the residual heat removal system is placed in service and the reactor coolant pumps are

shut down, further cooling of the pressurizer liquid is accomplished by charging through the

auxiliary spray line. Coincident with plant cooldown, a portion of the reactor coolant flow may be

diverted from the residual heat removal system to the CVCS for cleanup. Demineralization of

ionic radioactive impurities and stripping of fission gases reduce the reactor coolant activity level

sufficiently to permit personnel access for refueling or maintenance operations.

9.3.4.1.3 Safety Evaluation 9.3.4.1.3.1 Reactivity Control.

Any time that the plant is at power, the quantity of boric acid retained and ready for injection always exceeds that quantity required for the normal cold shutdown, assuming that the control assembly of greatest worth is in its fully withdrawn position.

This quantity always exceeds the quantity of boric acid required to bring the reactor to hot

shutdown and to compensate for subsequent xenon decay. An adequate quantity of boric acid

is also available in the refueling water storage tank to achieve cold shutdown.

When the reactor is subcritical (i.e., during cold or hot shutdown, refueling, and approach to

criticality), the neutron source multiplication is continuously monitored and indicated. Any

appreciable increase in the neutron source multiplication, including that caused by the FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-36 REV 25 4/14 maximum physical boron dilution rate, is slow enough to give ample time to start a corrective

action (boron dilution stop and boration) to prevent the core from becoming critical.

Two separate and independent flow paths are available for reactor coolant boration, i.e., the

charging line and the reactor coolant pump seal injection. A single failure does not result in the

inability to borate the RCS.

As backup to the normal boric acid supply, the operator can align the refueling water storage

tank outlet to the suction of the charging pumps, thus injecting 2300-ppm boron solution (minimum) into the RCS.

In Mode 6, with any valve used to isolate an unborated water source not secured in the closed

position, the TRM ensures that at least one flow path is available for boron injection. When the

unborated water source isolation valves are secured in the closed position in Mode 6, a boron

dilution accident is precluded. In this case, plant procedures ensure the availability of at least

one boron injection flow path.

In Mode 5, the TRM ensures that at least one flow path is available for boron injection and that

the capability of such injection is adequate to ensure that cold shutdown can be maintained.

In Modes 1, 2, 3, and 4 the TRM ensures that redundant boration capability is available in

quantity sufficient to ensure shutdown to cold conditions.

An upper limit to the boric acid tank boron concentration and a lower limit to the temperature for

the tank and for flow paths from the tank are specified in order to ensure that solution solubility

is maintained.

Since inoperability of a single component does not impair ability to meet boron injection

requirements, plant operating procedures allow co mponents to be temporarily out of service for repairs. However, with an inoperable component, the ability to tolerate additional component

failure is limited. Therefore, operating procedures require immediate action to effect repairs of

an inoperable component, restrict permissible repair time, and require demonstration of the

operability of the redundant component.

9.3.4.1.3.2 Reactor Coolant Purification.

The CVCS is capable of reducing the concentration of ionic isotopes in the purification stream as required in the design basis. This is accomplished by passing the letdown flow through the mixed-bed demineralizers that remove

ionic isotopes, except those of cesium, molybdenum, and yttrium, with a minimum

decontamination factor of 10. Through occasional use of the cation bed demineralizer, the concentration of cesium can be maintained below 1.0

µCi/cm 3 , assuming 1 percent of the rated core thermal power is being produced by fuel with defective cladding. The cation bed demineralizer is capable of passing the normal letdown flow, though only a portion of this

capacity is normally utilized. Each mixed-bed demineralizer is capable of processing the

maximum letdown flowrate. If the normally operating mixed-bed demineralizer's resin has

become exhausted, the second demineralizer can be placed in service. Each demineralizer is designed, however, to operate for one core cycle with 1-percent defective fuel.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-37 REV 25 4/14 9.3.4.1.3.3 Seal Water Injection.

Flow to the reactor coolant pumps' seals is ensured by the fact that there are three charging pumps, any one of which is capable of supplying the

normal charging line flow plus the nominal seal water flow.

9.3.4.1.3.4 Leakage Provisions.

The CVCS components, valves, and piping that see radioactive service are designed to limit leakage to the atmosphere. Leakage to the atmosphere is limited through: welding of all piping joints and connections except where flanged

connections are provided to facilitate maintenanc e and hydrostatic testing, extensive use of leakoffs to collect leakage, and use of diaphragm valves where conditions permit.

The volume control tank in the CVCS provides an inferential measurement of leakage from the

system as well as the RCS. Low level in the volume control tank actuates makeup at the

prevailing reactor coolant boron concentration.

The amount of leakage can be inferred from the amount of makeup added by the reactor

makeup control system.

9.3.4.1.3.5 Ability to Meet the Safeguards Function.

A failure analysis of the portion of the CVCS which is safety related (used as part of the ECCS) is included as part of the ECCS failure analysis presented in appendix 6A.

9.3.4.1.4 Tests and Inspections As part of plant operation, periodic tests, surveillance inspections, and instrument calibrations

are made to monitor equipment condition and performance. Most components are in use

regularly; therefore, assurance of the av ailability and performance of the systems and

equipment is provided by control room and/or local indication.

The plant Technical Specifications and requirements in the TRM have been established

concerning calibration, checking, and sampling of the CVCS.

9.3.4.1.5 Instrumentation Application Process control instrumentation is provided to acquire data concerning key parameters about

the CVCS. The location of the instrumentation is shown in drawings D-175039, sheet 1 through

7 and D-205039, sheets 1 through 5. The instrumentation furnishes input signals for monitoring

and/or alarming purposes. Indications and/or alarms are provided for the following parameters:

temperature, pressure, flow, water level, and radiation.

The instrumentation also supplies input signals for control purposes. Some specific control

functions are:

A. Letdown flow is diverted to the volume control tank upon high temperature indication upstream of the mixed-bed demineralizers.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-38 REV 25 4/14 B. Pressure downstream of the letdown heat exchangers is controlled to prevent flashing of the letdown liquid.

C. Charging flowrate is controlled during charging pump operation.

D. Water level is controlled in the volume control tank.

E. Temperature of the boric acid solution in the batching tank is maintained.

F. Reactor makeup is controlled.

G. DELETED

9.3.4.2 Boron Thermal Regeneration System The BTRS varies the RCS boron concentration to compensate for xenon transients and other

reactivity changes which occur when the reactor power level is changed.

9.3.4.2.1 Design Basis The BTRS is designed to accommodate the changes in boron concentration required by the

design load cycle without requiring makeup for either boration or dilution.

9.3.4.2.2 System Description During normal operation of the CVCS, the letdown flow from the RCS passes through the regenerative heat exchanger, letdown heat exchanger, mixed-bed demineralizers, reactor

coolant filter, and volume control tank. The charging pumps then take suction from the volume

control tank and return the purified reactor coolant to the RCS.

An alternate letdown path is provided which allows part or all of the letdown flow to pass

through the BTRS (shown in drawings D-175040 and D-205040) when boron concentration

changes are made to follow plant load. The letdown flow is directed to the BTRS from a point

downstream of the mixed-bed demineralizers.

After processing by the BTRS, the flow is

returned to the CVCS at a point upstream of the reactor coolant filter.

Storage and release of boron during load follow operation is determined by the temperature of

the fluid entering the thermal regeneration demineralizers. A group of heat exchangers is

employed to provide the desired fluid temperatures at the demineralizer inlet for either storage or release operation of the system.

The flow path through the BTRS is different for boron storage and release operations. During

boron storage, the letdown stream enters the moderating heat exchanger and from there it passes through the letdown chiller heat exchanger. The moderating heat exchanger cools the

letdown stream prior to its entering the demi neralizers. The letdown reheat heat exchanger is

valved out on the tube side and performs no function during boron storage operations. After FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-39 REV 25 4/14 passing through the demineralizers, the letdow n enters the moderating heat exchanger shell side, where it is heated by the incoming letdown stream before going to the volume control tank.

Therefore, for boron storage, a decrease in the boric acid concentration in the reactor coolant is

accomplished by sending the letdown flow at relatively low temperatures to the thermal

regeneration demineralizers. The resin, which was depleted of boron at high temperature

during a prior boron release operation, is now capable of storing boric acid from the low

temperature letdown stream. Reactor coolant with a decreased concentration of boric acid

leaves the demineralizers and is directed to the CVCS. Procedures are also available to

decrease the concentration of boric acid in the reactor coolant using BTRS demineralizers

without using BTRS chillers.

During the boron release operation, the letdown stream enters the moderating heat exchanger

tube side, bypasses the letdown chiller heat exchanger, and passes through the shell side of

the letdown reheat heat exchanger. The moderating and letdown reheat heat exchangers heat

the letdown stream prior to its entering the resin beds. The temperature of the letdown at the

point of entry to the demineralizers is controll ed automatically by the temperature control valve which controls the flowrate on the tube side of the letdown reheat heat exchanger. After

passing through the demineralizers, the letdown st ream enters the shell side of the moderating heat exchanger, passes through the tube side of the letdown chiller heat exchanger, and then

goes to the volume control tank. Thus, for boron release, an increase in the boric acid

concentration in the reactor coolant is accomplished by sending the letdown flow at relatively

high temperatures to the thermal regeneration demineralizers. The water flowing through the

demineralizers now releases boron that was stored by the resin at low temperature during a

previous boron storage operation. The boron-enriched reactor coolant is returned to the RCS

via the CVCS.

Although the BTRS is primarily designed to compensate for xenon transients occurring during

load follow, it can also be used to handle boron swings far in excess of the design capacity of

the demineralizers. During startup dilution, for example, the resin beds are first saturated, then

washed off to the recycle holdup tanks in the CVCS, and then again saturated and washed off.

This operation continues until the desired dilution in the RCS is obtained.

As an additional function, a thermal regeneration demineralizer can be used as a deborating

demineralizer, which would be used to dilute the RCS down to very low boron concentrations

toward the end of core life. To make such a bed effective, the effluent concentration from the

bed must be kept very low, close to 0-ppm boron. This low effluent concentration can be

achieved by using fresh resin. When RCS boron concentrations are low during the end of a

core cycle, the four BTRS demineralizers are evaluated for boron removal capability. The boron

removal efficiency of each demineralizer resin will determine when the demineralizer will be

placed in service, and when the resin will be replaced with fresh resin.

A. Component Description

Component safety classifications and design codes are given in section 3.2, and a summary of principal component design parameters is given in table 9.3-7.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-40 REV 25 4/14 1. Chiller Pumps (ABANDONED)

These centrifugal pumps circulate the water through the chilled-water loop. One pump is supplied for each chiller.

2. Moderating Heat Exchanger

The moderating heat exchanger operates as a regenerative heat exchanger between incoming and outgoing streams to and from the

thermal regeneration demineralizers.

The incoming flow enters the tube side of the moderating heat exchanger.

The shell-side fluid, which comes directly from the demineralizers, enters

at low temperature during boron storage and enters at high temperature

during boron release.

3. Letdown Chiller Heat Exchanger

During the boron storage operation, the process stream enters the tube side of the letdown chiller heat exchanger after leaving the moderating

heat exchanger.

4. Letdown Reheat Heat Exchanger

The letdown reheat heat exchanger is used only during boron release operations and it is then used to heat the process stream. Water used for

heating is diverted from the letdown line upstream of the letdown heat

exchanger in the CVCS, passed through the tube side of the letdown

reheat heat exchanger, and then returned to the letdown stream

upstream of the letdown heat exchanger.

5. Chiller Surge Tank (ABANDONED)

The chiller surge tank handles the thermal expansion and contraction of the water in the chiller loop. The surge volume in the tank also acts as a

thermal buffer for the chiller.

6. Thermal Regeneration Demineralizers

The function of the thermal regeneration demineralizers is to store the total amount of boron that must be removed from the RCS to accomplish

the required dilution during a load cycle in order to compensate for xenon

buildup resulting from a decreased power level. Furthermore, the

demineralizers must be able to release the previously stored boron to

accomplish the required boration of the reactor coolant during the load

cycle in order to compensate for a decrease in xenon concentration

resulting from an increased power level.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-41 REV 25 4/14 The demineralizers are of the type that can accept flow in either direction.

The flow direction during boron storage is therefore always opposite to

that during release. This provides much faster response when the beds

are switched from storage to release, and vice versa, than would be the

case if the demineralizers could accept flow in only one direction.

7. Chillers (ABANDONED)

The chillers are located in a chilled-water loop containing a surge tank, chiller pumps, the letdown chiller heat exchanger, piping, valves, and

controls. The purpose of the chillers is twofold: to cool down the process

stream during storage of boron on the resin and to maintain an outlet temperature from the BTRS at or below 115

°F during release of boron.

B. System Operation

A master switch is provided which places the system in either the boron release or boron storage mode of operation or turns the system off. The operational

modes determined by the thermal regeneration selector switch are boration, dilution, and off.

When the switch is set on off, the BTRS is isolated from the letdown line and the chiller and chiller pumps are stopped. Valve 1-8547 opens to permit normal

letdown flow directly to the volume control tank. With the switch set for dilution (boron storage), the following alignments occur:

1. Proper flow path to BTRS is established.
2. Tube side flow (hot letdown) of the letdown reheat heat exchanger is isolated.
3. The BTRS bypass valve (1-8547) diverts all letdown flow into the BTRS.

The chiller heat exchanger shell flow control valve (TCV-386) is set to control the temperature of the water leaving the tube side and going to the BTRS

demineralizers. Valve 1-HCV-387 is adjusted to control the amount of water that

flows through the demineralizer beds.

When the selector switch is set for boration (boron release), the system automatically:

1. Aligns the proper flow path in the BTRS.
2. Controls the temperature leaving the shell side and going to the BTRS demineralizers via the letdown reheat heat exchanger tube flow control

valve (TCV-381).

3. Directs all letdown flow into the BTRS via bypass valve 1-8547.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-42 REV 25 4/14 The chiller heat exchanger flow control valve (TCV-386) is set to control the temperature of the water leaving the tube side and going to the volume control

tank. Valve 1-HCV-387 is adjusted to control the amount of water that flows

through the demineralizer beds.

After the mode of operation has been selected and the system prepared for operation by

actuation of the master switch, flow is admitted to the BTRS by throttling back on the diversion

valve in the letdown line. The flowrate through the BTRS is dictated by the desired reactor

coolant dilution (boration) rate.

When the boron concentration of the reactor coolant reaches the desired level, the BTRS is

shut down by placing the master switch in the off position.

Table 9.3-8 shows certain values associated with operation of the BTRS and their position in

each operating mode.

9.3.4.2.3 Safety Evaluation Any partial or total malfunction of the BTRS would result only in loss of plant load following

capability. This system is nonsafety related. The postulated full power dilution accident

considered in chapter 15 is not influenced by dilution with this system. The dilution flow

depends solely upon the delivery capability of the charging pumps, which remains unchanged

with or without BTRS operability.

9.3.4.2.4 Tests and Inspections The BTRS is in intermittent use throughout normal reactor operation. Periodic visual inspection

and preventive maintenance are conducted using normal industry practice.

9.3.4.2.5 Instrumentation Application A. Temperature

Instrumentation is provided to monitor the chiller outlet temperature and to control chiller operation. Instrumentation is also provided to monitor the chiller

surge tank temperature. Readout for both sets of instrumentation is located on

the main control board.

Instrumentation is provided to control the temperature of the letdown flow passing through the demineralizers. During dilution, it controls a valve which

throttles the letdown chiller heat exchanger shell-side flow. During boration, it

controls the valves which throttle the letdown reheat heat exchanger tube side

flow. Readout and a high temperature alarm are provided on the main control

board.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-43 REV 25 4/14 Protection of the thermal regeneration demineralizer resins from high temperature flow is provided by instrumentation which, upon reaching the high

temperature setpoint, operates a three-way valve in the letdown line upstream of

the mixed-bed demineralizers in the CVCS in order to divert the letdown flow to

the volume control tank. Readout is provided on the main control board.

Instrumentation is provided to monitor the temperature of the flow leaving the demineralizers. Temperature indication is provided on the main control board.

The temperature of the flow leaving the BTRS during boration (boron release) operations is controlled by instrumentation controlling a valve which throttles the

letdown chiller heat exchanger shell-side flow. Thus the temperature of the fluid

being routed to the volume control tank is prevented from becoming too high.

B. Pressure

Instrumentation is provided which monitors and gives local indication of the pressure at each chiller pump suction and discharge and at the inlet and outlet to

the bank of demineralizers.

C. Flow

Instrumentation on the return line to the chiller surge tank maintains chiller loop flow at a constant value by controlling the valve which adjusts the amount of flow

bypassing the letdown chiller heat exchanger. Thus, if the shell-side flow in the heat exchanger is restricted by the temperature controlled valve, the bypass

valve is automatically adjusted to maintain full flow in the chiller loop.

Instrumentation is provided to monitor the flowrate through the BTRS. Indication is on the main control board.

D. Level

Instrumentation is provided to measure the fluid level in the chiller surge tank.

Level readout and high and low level alarms are provided on the main control

board.

9.3.5 FAILED

FUEL DETECTION SYSTEM 9.3.5.1 Design Bases The gross failed fuel detection system consists of equipment designed to detect gross fuel

failure by the measurement of delayed neutron activity in the reactor coolant.

FNP-FSAR-9

9.3-44 REV 25 4/14 9.3.5.2 System Description

The gross failed fuel detector is connected to the hot leg of a primary coolant loop (figure 9.3-2).

The coolant sample passes through a cooler and then into a coil containing a neutron detector

and moderator, after which it flows back into the volume control tank. The sample delay time to

the neutron detector is adjusted by means of a flow controller. The delay time also depends on

the length of tubing used. Once set, the flow is kept relatively constant by the automatic flow control valve. A transmitting flowmeter is installed for periodic checks of the flowrate. A sensor

monitors the temperature within the neutron coil.

Figure 9.3-3 shows the block diagram of the gross failed fuel detector channel. The detector, preamplifier, sample cooler, and associated flow controls are located outside the containment.

The signal processing equipment and readout are mounted in a rack located in the control

room. The delayed neutron signal of the detector is displayed on a recorder located in the rack.

The response time for the gross failed fuel detector is on the order of 60 s.

9.3.5.3 Safety Evaluation The gross failed fuel detection system does not perform a safety-related function and is not

designed to satisfy any specific safety criteria. As shown in figure 9.3-2, the gross failed fuel

detector is outside the containment and is installed in the primary coolant hot leg sample line. It

is isolated from the containment by means of t he sample system isolation valves. The safety evaluation of the sampling system, including the isolation valves, is discussed in

subsection 9.3.2.

9.3.5.4 Tests and Inspections The gross failed fuel detection system is equipped with a test oscillator in the preamplifier and a

test oscillator in the electronics drawer, each of which can be used to test the proper operation

of the signal processing circuitry. Routine tests and inspections will be performed in

accordance with procedures described in section 13.5.

9.3.5.5 Instrument Applications Instrumentation associated with the gross failed fuel detection system is described in

paragraph 9.3.5.2.

NOTES 1. The design basis accident is the postulated LOCA.

2. No demister is provided because the unit is located outside the containment and no entrained water droplets are anticipated. No HEPA filters are provided downstream of

the charcoals, since radioactive fines carryover is very unlikely. This is true because the

charcoal trays are pressure tested at high velocity in the manufacturer's shop prior to

delivery, thereby removing fines. Also, during system operation, air is passing through

the charcoal at a very low velocity.

3. No physical separation is provided, since these units are located in a room where no missiles are postulated.
4. Pressure drops across the prefilters, HEPA, and charcoal filters are instrumented to indicate in the equipment room. Pressure drops across the HEPA and charcoal filters

are instrumented to alarm in the control room. No recording of these signals is provided.

Fan loss of flow is also instrumented to signal in the equipment room and alarm in the

control room.

5. Fan motors and motor-operated valves installed outside containment and in a nonradioactive area are not in conformance with IEEE 323.
6. The size of the engineered safety feature filtration units precludes replacement as a single unit. The unit components are replaced individually.
7. Demisters are not provided.
8. Mounting frames for filter and charcoals are constructed of carbon steel coated with an inorganic nuclear grade paint.
9. Internal welds are carbon steel coated with an inorganic nuclear grade paint.
10. The deluge and drain system has been eliminated due to recurring problems experienced at other facilities associated with inadvertent wetting of the absorber.

Temperature gauges have been installed to monitor any heat rise in the filter housing.

Cooling water supply Line break No effect Failure of either cooling water train of either unit header can result in the disabling of no more than one large and one small diesel generator. One large diesel per unit is capable of furnishing the required safety-related power to its assigned unit. A total of two small and three large diesels is provided.

Supply header Header isolation No effects During two-unit operation, no single train valve fails closed supplies cooling water to more than one small diesel and one large diesel. Therefore, any train failure affects only these diesels.

During one-unit operati on, the above statement is also true. Only a total of four diesels is considered operational during one-unit operation. The large diesel assigned to the nonoperating unit will be isolated. The nonshared large diesel will be isolated from the unit not required to furnish cooling water to that diesel. Discharge header Header isolation No effects During two-unit operation, each diesel will valve fails closed have a dischar ge path to either of the units.

Therefore, this single failure will not result in loss of flow to the diesels. During one-unit operation, this failure will result in the loss of flow to the diesel of the failed cooling water train only.

9A-1 REV 21 5/08 APPENDIX 9A ULTIMATE HEAT SINK ELEVATION - RESIDUAL DECAY HEAT 9A.1 DECAY HEAT The decay heat generation for the Farley units is given in figure 9A-1. These curves are provided in Westinghouse Specification No. BOP-FR-8, Rev. 1, Functional Requirements and

Design Criteria-Residual Decay Heat Standard. The decay heat values for the Farley units are

taken from these curves. The finite irradiation time assumes a three-region core with equal

mass regions irradiated for 8000, 16,000, and 24,000 h (effective full power), respectively.

These data have been compared to those which result from an application of the American

Nuclear Society standard (ANS-5) for finite times using, for the contribution from fission

products, the formula:

()()[]

=+=31i itt,Po/Pt, Po/P1/3 u)+(1Po(t)/

P Where:

I = Core region of interest.

t i = Irradiation time of region i (8000 h for region 1, 16,000 h for region 2, and 24,000 h for region 3).

P/Po (t) = Decay heat fraction of initial power at time t.

P/Po (,t) = Decay heat fraction for infinite irradiation time from ANS-5 curve.

u = Recommended uncertainties per ANS-5 (20 percent t is 10 3 s, 10 percent 10 3 s < t < 10 7 s).

The result, within the accuracy of reading two values from the ANS-5 curve for infinite irradiation

and the accuracy of plotting the difference plus prescribed uncertainties, agrees with the fission

product decay curve in figure 9A-1.

The U-238 capture decay (due to U-239 and Np-239 decay) contribution shown in figure 9A-1

was calculated with equations prescribed by ANS-5 plus a 10-percent uncertainty.

The contribution from delay neutron-induced fissions is excluded from consideration by ANS-5.

A sample of the decay heat values used in the evaluation of the ultimate heat sink is given in

table 9A-1. These values are based on the residual decay heat curves provided in

NUREG-0800, Standard Review Plan, Revision 2, July 1981, Branch Technical Position ASB FNP-FSAR-9A

9A-2 REV 21 5/08 9-2 (pages 9.2.5-11 to 9.2.5-13). Figure 9A-2 compares the Westinghouse total decay heat

curve to the curve obtained using the total decay heat values from the updated ultimate heat

sink evaluation. The curve formed using the total residual decay heat values from the UHS

envelopes the Westinghouse curve; hence, the values used in the UHS calculation are

conservative.

NUREG-0800 was employed in the heat sink calculation because it provides an added

conservatism in the determination of residual decay heat and, subsequently, to the heat load to

the ultimate heat sink. Furthermore, in no way does the use of NUREG-0800 in the ultimate

heat sink calculation alter the existing design basis provided by the Westinghouse curves.

FNP-FSAR-9A

REV 21 5/08 TABLE 9A-1 RESIDUAL DECAY HEAT USED IN THE UPDATED UHS CALCULATION The total residual decay heat values used in the updated heat sink calculation are based on the residual decay heat curves provided in NUREG-0800 (page 9.2.5-11 to 9.2.5-13). The curves

provide residual decay heat values in terms of fractions of full power. The value for full power

that is used to determine the megawatt value of residual decay heat is 2774 MW. This MW

decay heat is then converted to Watts and, finally, to Btu/h. The decay heat values are reported

relative to the time when the reactor is shutdown.

SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION The steam and power conversion system is designed to accept steam from the nuclear steam

supply system (NSSS) and convert its thermal energy into electrical energy. It consists of the turbine-generator, main steam supply system , main condenser, turbine bypass system, condensate and feedwater system, steam gener ator blowdown system, main condenser

evacuation system, turbine gland sealing system , and circulating water system. The steam and power conversion system has a capability of 2785 MWt and 920 MWe. A flow diagram is

provided for the main steam supply system in drawings D-175033, sheet 1, D-175033, sheet 2, D-170114, sheet 1, D-170114, sheet 2, D-205033, sheet 1, D-205033, sheet 2, and D-200007.

A summary of major equipment is provided in table 10.1-1. Heat balances are shown in figures

10.1-1 and 10.1-2 for both normal and maximum volumetric flow rates, respectively.

The turbine is a Westinghouse (modified by Siemens) 1800 rpm, tandem compound, 4-flow

exhaust with 45.5-in. last-stage blades. It is equipped with an automatic stop and emergency trip system which will trip the stop and control valv es to a closed position in the event of turbine

overspeed, low bearing oil pressure, low vacuum, or thrust bearing failure. (See section 10.2.)

The main steam supply system includes the associated piping and valves required to conduct

the steam through the steam and power conversion system. Steam generated in the three

steam generators will be conducted through the containment wall in three lines. Isolation valves

and spring-loaded safety valves will be located outside of containment in each of the three

steam lines, with the safety valves being locat ed upstream of the isolation valves. Beyond the isolation valves, the three main steam lines join in a header, and downstream of the header, the

flow splits into two separate lines which both lead to the turbine. At the turbine, flow from each

of these two main steam supply lines will feed the turbine. Steam to the auxiliary feedwater

pump turbine will be taken in separate lines from two of the three main steam lines. Steam will be supplied to the steam reheaters, the gland steam sealing system , the auxiliary steam system, the steam generator feedwater pump turbine, and other components and systems. (See section 10.3.)

The main condenser serves as a heat sink for the main turbine exhaust, feed pump turbine

exhaust, turbine bypass steam, and other flows. It also provides for deaeration and storage for

the condensate. Each low-pressure turbine casing is connected by the use of a

single-convolution, stainless steel expansion joint to its condenser. (See subsection 10.4.1.)

The turbine bypass system provides a route for throttle steam to bypass the turbine and enter the condenser directly. This route is provided for the case of large turbine load reduction which

could cause an undesired magnitude of nuclear sy stem transients. The bypass system is capable of allowing a 50-percent load decrease in the turbine load without reactor trip. (See

subsection 10.4.4.)

The condensate and feedwater system is a closed cycle which serves to conduct condensed

steam from the main condenser to the steam generators located inside the containment.

FNP-FSAR-10

10.1-2 REV 25 4/14 Deaeration of the condensate is performed in the hot well of the main condenser. The

condensate is then pumped through five stages of low-pressure feedwater heaters, followed by

one stage of high-pressure feedwater headers, before entering the steam generators. (See

subsection 10.4.7.)

The steam generator blowdown system is designed to maintain the water chemistry in the

secondary coolant system at an optimum purity leve

l. Blowdown liquid is taken off at the steam generator stage and processed with the use of ion exchange resins to remove impurities which

may have been added through leaks in the steam and power conversion syst em. This system also removes radioactive contaminants which may enter the secondary side of the steam

generator through defects in the steam generator tubing. After the contaminants have been

removed for offsite disposal, the purified blowdown liquid is recycled to the main condenser.

The main condenser evacuation system, by the use of hogging ejectors during startup and

steam jet air ejectors during normal running, creates a vacuum on the main condenser to

ensure proper flow of the condensing steam. (See subsection 10.4.2.)

The turbine gland sealing system acts to seal the turbine shaft from leakage of air into the

turbine interior or leakage of steam out of the turbine into the turbine building. (See

subsection 10.4.3.)

The circulating water system is designed to remove the waste heat from the thermal cycle. It

will also remove the heat released into the c ondenser by the steam dump system during plant startup, cooldown, or during steam dump operation following a large load reduction. (See

subsection 10.4.5.)

Portions of the main steam supply system and the condensate and feedwater system are safety related. There is an extremely small amount of radioactivity in the steam and power conversion

system during normal operation; therefore, no radiation shieldings (besides piping and housing)

are required for this system. The portion of the steam and power conversion system which is

located outside containment is continuously accessible under normal operating conditions.

10A-1 REV 23 5/11 APPENDIX 10A DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF MAIN STEAM SWING DISC TRIP VALVE FOR FAULTED CONDITIONS 10A.1 INTRODUCTION Prior to performing the closure impact analysis described herein, Teledyne Materials Research (TMR) performed two preliminary closure impact analyses for the disc of a main steam

swing-disc trip valve intended for service in the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant. In both of the preliminary analyses, it was conservatively assumed that the valve body would remain rigid

during impact. The objective of the preliminary analyses was to demonstrate the structural

adequacy of the disc before proceeding with a more comprehensive analysis in which the valve

body would be allowed to deform. The assumption of a rigid valve seat was considered to yield

a conservative evaluation of the disc because of the implied requirement that the kinetic energy

stored in the disc and swing arm would be dissipated solely through plastic-strain energy

absorption in the disc. This report contains the final analysis in which both the disc and the

body are allowed to deform during the closure impact.

Large impact-induced strains in the disc were predicted on the basis of the conservative results

of the first preliminary analysis. This led to a dec ision to substitute a more ductile material for the disc. For this reason, the A516 Gr. 70 steel disc considered in the first preliminary analysis

was replaced by a type 304 stainless steel disc in the second preliminary analysis. The choice

of type 304 stainless steel was justified on the basis of available high-strain rate tensile test data for the temperature of interest (600

°F). Data presented in reference 2 reveals that the material had excellent ductility at strain rates as high as 100 s

-1 , both in terms of the uniform elongation at ultimate stress and the reduction of area at fracture. Therefore, this material was considered to have excellent energy absorption characteristi cs for impact conditions. Another consideration in the selection of the stainless steel was the ability to construct stress-strain diagrams for various rates of straining by means of information available from reference 3. This information

originated from the same testing program described in reference 2.

To reduce the high strains predicted in the first preliminary analysis for the disc rim region, a

disc geometry modification was introduced prior to performance of the second preliminary

analysis. The modification consisted of adding material to the backside of the disc in the rim

region. Because the material change and geometry change were made simultaneously, it was

not possible to determine to what degree the geometry change was effective toward reducing

high local strains in the contact region. However, the geometry change, if nothing more, reduced the shear strains averaged across the disc thickness. Therefore, the ability of the

redesigned disc to resist gross shearing at the internal seat diameter was improved.

The final analysis reported here is an axisymmetric simulation of the problem. That is, the

structure was modeled axisymmetrically and the swinging motion of the disc was replaced by a translational motion. The problem was solved for a disc impact velocity of 150 ft/s. This velocity was obtained by equating the kinetic energy of the translating disc to that of the swinging disc.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-2 REV 23 5/11 A pressure of 705 psig was assumed to act on the upstream side of the disc for the duration of the impact event and the temperature of the valve was assumed to be 600

°F. The computer program used for the final analysis of the impact problem under faulted conditions

was the PISCES code. This Lagrangian finite-difference code permits the dynamic response of

a structure to be analyzed as a function of time under conditions of substantial plastic

deformation and gross geometric distortion.

Strain criteria are introduced in the report for evaluating the results of the impact analysis. On

the basis of testing the results against these criteria, it is concluded in section 10A.2 that the

valve body and disc are structurally adequate to withstand the postulated faulted-condition

event.

To acquaint the reader with the general appearance of the valve under consideration, a sketch

of the longitudinal cross-section is shown in figure 10A-1. The figure was obtained by tracing

Atwood and Morrill drawing No. 21261-H and shows the disc in the closed position. Under

normal operating conditions, the disc will be fully open and steam will flow from left to right. As

indicated on figure 10A-1, the downstream and upstream surfaces of the disc will be referred to

as the front surface and back surface, respectively.

Figure 10A-1 shows the component configurations considered for the final analysis reported

herein. With this design, the disc is subjected to a concentrated load at its center at the time of

impact. This load is due to the inertia of the disc arm, post, and nut. For the purpose of

analysis, a conservative approach was taken whereby the kinetic energy in the disc arm was

forced to be dissipated through plastic deformation of the disc and body. As discussed later, this was accomplished by adding the kinetic energy of the disc arm to the kinetic energy of the

disc through an increase in the density of the material near the center of the disc.

Following completion of the analysis reported herein, the disc arm was redesigned to the

configuration indicated in figures 10A-2 and 10A-3. For the redesigned disc arm, the kinetic

energy of the arm is transferred to the disc via four points located along the disc rim. The

modified arm design results in less severe disc loading than that presented in this report.

Consequently, the analysis performed in the original arm design (as shown in figure 10A-1) may

be viewed as a conservative evaluation for the modified disc arm design.

Table 10A-1 shows the nomenclature used in the report.

10A.2

SUMMARY

AND CONCLUSIONS The complete impact analysis of the disc required two tasks. Fluid dynamics were used to

calculate the forces on the disc and the disc closing velocity (attachment D). The impact

analysis was based on converting the angular velocity calculated in attachment D to an

equivalent uniform translational velocity and ev aluating the impact response by means of an axisymmetric representation of the disc and valve body.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-3 REV 23 5/11 10A.2.1

SUMMARY

OF FLUID DYNAMICS RESULTS Addendum 8 to Bechtel Inquiry SS-1102-32 (reference 1) specifies the initial steam pressure

and quality for the two cases of main steam flow conditions to be considered in the swing-disc, trip-valve closure analysis. Denoting these as cases 1 and 2, the fluid flow states vary between

saturated steam in case 1, and 4-percent quality steam in case 2. The flow conditions for

case 1 and case 2 are outlined in attachment D.

The elapsed time from pipe break detection to dump valve actuation is 0.5 s, and an additional

1.0 s is required for the air cylinder to depressurize from the nominal 100-psig pressure to the disc balance pressure. During this 1.5-s delay, the 32-in. main steam line blows down and outflow is established by the upstream flow restrictor. Thus, the disc is not exposed to the initial

blowdown through the 32-in. pipe.

Atwood and Morrill weight and center of gravity data were used to compute a moment of inertia

for the disc assembly. Relations for the torques acting on the swing disc were formulated, including those due to gravity, pressure, and the closing spring. Also considered was a

constant shaft counter torque due to gland packing friction and based on Atwood and Morrill

data.

A calculation was made to determine the choking angle across the disc at which the dihedral

area between the disc plane and the plane of the valve seat is exactly equal to the flow area

across the valve seat. The choke angle was computed as 24.5 degrees, measured from the

valve seat.

In computing flow conditions across the valve, the conservative assumption was made that the

break occurs just downstream of the valve, resulting in a choked-flow condition across the valve

seat. This determined the flow velocity to which the disc was subjected. A dynamic analysis of

the disc motion was conducted for five angular segments between the normal "open" position

(65 degrees) and the closed position. The net torque acting on the disc was computed for each

included angular segment, and the results were used to solve the equations of motion. Included in each calculation were P, torque (T), , and t.

Upon onset of choking at = 24.5 degrees, a static pressure of 995 psia was taken at the back of the disc. A critical pressure ratio of 0.578 applied to this yielded a valve throat pressure of

575 psia, and a P across the disc of 419.9 psid. This pressure differential was held constant during the remaining 24.5 degrees of disc travel to impact. To account for the steam hammer

specified for cases 1 and 2, the steam hammer was averaged with P of 419.9 psid over the last 10 degrees of disc travel to impact, and the result then used in the torque calculation.

The results of the fluid flow analysis, as contained in attachment D, indicate a disc center impact

velocity of 117 ft/s for case 1 (saturated steam), and a 102.7 ft/s disc center impact velocity for case 2 (x = 4 percent). Closure times were 0.146 s and 0.158 s, respectively.

Using the more conservative case 1 disc center impact velocity, a modified disc center velocity

was determined by equating the kinetic energy for the assumed translational rotational mode (KE t) to the kinetic energy computed for the actual rotational mode (KE r). As shown in FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-4 REV 23 5/11 attachment C, this computation gives the disc center a velocity of V t = 150 ft/s used in the impact analysis. This approach to the choice of a uniform impact velocity was in accordance

with the conservative assumption that the kinetic energy must be dissipated solely through

plastic deformation of the valve body and disc.

10A.2.2

SUMMARY

OF IMPACT ANALYSIS RESULTS The dynamic solution formulated in section 10A.3 permitted the structural behavior of the valve under impact conditions to be investigated as a function of time. Both the disc and the valve

body were allowed to deform plastically. Pertinent results obtained in the investigation are

discussed in section 10A.4. Evaluation of the results against acceptance criteria is the subject

of section 10A.5. The following is a summary of key results obtained in the analysis:

A. The duration of the impact event as meas ured by dissipation of the kinetic energy in the moving parts of the valve is approximately 1300

µs (1.3 x 10

-3 s). The dynamic solution covers the first 1150

µs. Extrapolation to 1300

µs produces only minor changes in the results.

B. Following impact at 150 ft/s, the center of the disc continues to accelerate before it slows down. The highest velocity of 180 ft/s is reached 350

µs after impact.

C. Impact of the disc on the body seat results in substantial permanent geometric distortion of the valve, but not in the creation of a steam path past the disc.

Consideration of the deformed shape shows rotation of the seating surfaces of both

body and disc, as well as large-scale bending in the central portion of the disc. The

center of the disc deflects 1.84 in., which is equivalent to a displacement of half the

thickness of the disc (3.75 in.).

D. The largest value of the effective strain in the body is 15 percent. Because it is accompanied by a compressive hydrostatic stress state, an effective strain of up to

29 percent is considered acceptable. (Had the hydrostatic stress state been tensile, only 11-percent strain would have been acceptable.)

E. The largest value of the effective strain in the rim region of the disc is 17 percent.

This is a localized strain for which an effective strain of 30 percent is considered

acceptable (regardless of whether the hydrostatic stress state is tensile or compressive).

F. The largest value of the radial and hoop-bending strains in the disc which occur at the center of the front surface is 8.5 percent for both. Because of the constant

volume conditions associated with plastic deformation, the bending strains are

accompanied by a strain in the thickness direction of -17 percent. The effective

strain for this state of strain is 17 percent. An effective strain of up to 18 percent is

considered acceptable by a strain criter ion for limiting geometric distortion by bending.

2.3 CONCLUSION

S A. The impact analysis shows that the body and disc are structurally adequate to withstand the dynamic forces produced by valve closure under the postulated

faulted conditions.

B. The axisymmetric method of solution adopted for the dynamic analysis was confirmed as an acceptable analytical approach by the results obtained. That is, a

sufficient margin exists between the imposed strain limits and maximum strains

computed for the contact region of body and disc to provide protection against any

deviations from the computed results attributable to the initially nonuniform impact

velocity along the circumference of the disc.

C. The conclusions of A and B above are not invalidated by the redesign of the disc arm which followed the investigation.

10A.3 IMPACT ANALYSIS - FAULTED CONDITIONS 10A.3.1 METHOD OF ANALYSIS The valve impact analysis reported herein is based on the method of solution incorporated in

the PISCES computer code. This code permits the solution of stress-wave propagation

problems by solving equations of motion and constitutive equations expressed in

finite-difference form. Thus, the code is especially well suited for analyzing the response of

structures to impact, and explosion and penetration conditions. Such response normally

involves both elastic-plastic deformation of the material and gross distortion of the structural geometry. A solution is generated by calculating the response at each of many small time

steps, also called cycles. The magnitude of the time step is automatically calculated within the

program by means of a criterion that controls numerical stability.

Printout of the solution is available for any of the time steps. The user of the program

preselects the times at which printout is desired. A standard output format is provided, but the

user can also develop additional output by writing his own subroutine and appending it to the

PISCES code. Because strain components, effective strain, and effective stress are not part of

the standard output, TMR developed its own subroutine for the computation and printing of

these variables. Plotting routines are available in PISCES for plotting the standard output, but

TMR adapted its own plotting routines to PISCES to facilitate plotting of standard and

nonstandard output.

References 4 through 6 are the manuals used in generating the PISCES solutions for the valve

problem. They may be consulted for additional information on the computer code.

The following units used in the PISCES solutions are needed to interpret the printed and plotted

results:

A. Unit of length = centimeter (cm).

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-6 REV 23 5/11 B. Unit of time = microsecond (µs).

C. Unit of force = 10 12 dyn.

D. Unit of pressure = mbar (1 mbar = 10 12 dyn/cm 2).

E. Unit of mass = (g).

F. Unit of energy = 10 12 dyn/cm.

Note that 1 psi is equal to 6.89 x 10

-8 mbar.

10A.3.2 DISC MODEL The overall disc dimensions used for constructing the PISCES model are given in figure 10A-4.

The dimensions are shown in inches and in centimeters, the latter in parentheses. Attention is

called to the undercut fillet at A. For reasons explained below, two fillet geometries were

investigated. Figures 10A-5 and 10A-6 show the first PISCES model analyzed. The fillet in this

model approximates the original design in that the outer radius of the fillet coincides with the

inside diameter of the body seat. This coincidence led to computational difficulties with the

PISCES code, apparently triggered by the local strain concentration in the disc resulting from

indentation of the disc corner by the body seat corner. To circumvent this problem, the fillet geometry was changed to that shown in figures 10A-7 and 10A-8. The modification consists of

increasing the outer radius of the fillet by 0.1 in. while leaving the outside diameter of the disc

unchanged. As a consequence, the radial dimension of the contact face on the disc is reduced

by the same amount, from 1.25 in. to 1.15 in.(a)

A dashed outline is used in figure 10A-4 to indicate the configuration of the original carbon steel

disc which was considered in the first preliminary analysis. It was mentioned in

section 10A.1 that when the disc material was changed from carbon steel to stainless steel, additional material was added to the disc backside to improve the shear strength of the disc.

Because the chamfer at B has little bearing on the structural behavior of the disc, it was not

included in the PISCES model.

____________________

a. This modification has been incorporated into the design of the stainless steel disc. After

completion of the analysis reported herein, the fillet depth was increased by 0.1 in. The

rationale for this later modification is discussed in section 10A.5.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-7 REV 23 5/11 It was mentioned in section 10A.1 that a fictitious higher-density material was assumed to

occupy the central portion of the disc. As explained in subsection 10A.3.6, the value of this

higher-density material is determined from the imposed requirement that the kinetic energy of

the disc post, nut, and disc arm be transferred to the disc on impact. In section 10A.1 it was

stated that subsequent to the performance of this analysis, the disc arm was redesigned to add

four adjustable points of attachment between the disc arm, and the disc post was redesigned to

become an integral part of the discs (figures 10A-2 and 10A-3). The modified disc arm and

postarrangement facilitates the field replacement and alignment of the stainless steel disc in the

valve body and simplifies the machining of the replacement disc. The modified disc arm design

will create a more favorable impact loading on the disc so that the impact analysis reported

herein will remain valid.

10A.3.3 BODY MODEL The valve body has a complex three-dimens ional geometry. Considerable geometric simplification was necessary to permit an axisy mmetric representation of the body. Modeling was facilitated by the massive proportions of the body relative to the disc so that it could be

predicted that plastic deformation would be confined to the immediate vicinity of the seat area.

However, even in this region, the geometry is not axisymmetric apart from the seat itself.

Therefore, the choice was made to model the body seat region in such a way that it would best

simulate the structural response at the location where the impact velocity of the disc is highest

during the swing motion.

This choice led to the body geometry seen in figures 10A-5 through 10A-8. The model

dimensions are defined in figure 10A-9.

The PISCES model of the body consists of tw o cylinders of unequal diameters but equal wall thickness separated by a transition region that contains the valve seat. The wall thickness of

the two cylinders was made equal to the valve's allowed minimum wall thickness. The most

characteristic aspect of the geometry is the feature of having the inside diameter on the

downstream side match the diameter of the seat opening. The resulting 90-degree angle

between the shell wall and the valve seat is representative of the geometry immediately

adjacent to the point of maximum impact velo city mentioned above. This will be evident by comparing the model geometry with the actual geometry sketched in figure 10A-10, obtained by tracing part of Atwood and Morrill drawing No. 21322-F.

Only part of the PISCES model is shown in figures 10A-5 through 10A-8. As indicated on figure

10A-9 the model is 200 in. long, 100 in. each way from the seating surface. This much length

was included in the model to assure that elastic stress waves reflected at the ends of the model would not return to the contact region in less than 1000

µs. Based on the preliminary analyses, it had been estimated that the conversion of kinetic energy to plastic-strain energy would, for all practical purposes, be completed in this timespan. To limit the number of zones in the model, a

transition from six zones across the wall to two zones was made 12 in. downstream and 5 in.

upstream from the seat surface. Moreover, the length of the zones was increased to 10 in.

starting at axial positions located 20 in. downstream and 10 in. upstream. At distances this far

from the impact surface, the use of zones with an aspect ratio of 10 can be justified on the

assumption of uniform wave fronts.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-8 REV 23 5/11 10A.3.4 DISC MATERIAL The material properties employed for the disc, which are for type 304 stainless steel at 600

°F, are summarized below:

A. Elastic Constants

For Young's modulus (E), the value provided in Appendix I of ASME Section III was selected. Poisson's ratio () was assumed to be 0.3, and the shear modulus (G) and bulk modulus (K) were computed from E and . Thus,

1. E = 25.4 x 10 6 psi = 1.75 mbar.
2. = 0.3.
3. G = (E/2)/(1 + ) = 0.673 mbar.
4. K = (E/3)/(1 - 2) = 1.46 mbar.

B. Stress-Strain Diagram

The Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactor Materials Handbook (reference 3) was the source for the stress-strain diagrams for different strain rates shown in figure

10A-11. The pertinent page of the reference cited is included as attachment A. It

provides a transcendental equation that gives, as a function of temperature and strain rate, the relationship between the true stress (t) and the true plastic strain (p). The equation is valid to 25-percent strain and strain rates from 10

-5 to 10 2 s-1. Total true strain (t) may be obtained by adding the elastic strain such that t = p + t/E. The diagram for a strain rate of 10 3 s-1 was expected to be encountered in the solution.

The PISCES code permits the use of a bilinear stress-strain diagram together with a specified maximum on stress. Figure 10A-12 defines the diagram used in the

analysis. It consists of an elastic portion, a strain-hardening elastic-plastic portion, and a perfectly-plastic portion. It is also superposed on the curves in figure

10A-11 to indicate the reasoning employed in defining figure 10A-12. That is, since

the effect of strain rate could not be modeled in the PISCES computer solution, a

diagram was selected which would approximat e high-strain behavior at large strains

and low-strain rate behavior at small strains. Because the yield strength at the

low-strain rate of 10

-5 s-1 was less than the specified minimum value in Appendix I of ASME Section III, no downward adjustment of the curve to account for minimum

properties was needed.

Denoting the yield stress (or proportional limit), true ultimate stress and tangent modulus in the strain-hardening range by y , ut and E t , respectively, the values of these parameters associated with figures 10A-11 and 10A-12 are:

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-9 REV 23 5/11 1. y = 25,000 psi = 1.72 x 10

-3 mbar. 2. ut = 80,000 psi = 5.51 x 10

-3 mbar. 3. E t = 0.314 x 10 6 psi = 0.0216 mbar.

C. Ductility Parameters

The results of the PISCES solution will be evaluated on the basis of strain criteria expressed in terms of the ductility parameters ut and f. Here, ut is the true uniform elongation (the true strain at the maximum load in a tension test) and f is the true fracture strain. If u is the measured engineering strain at maximum load, and RA is the measured reduction of area at the fracture location, then ut and f may be computed with the relations ut = ln(1+u)ut and f = ln [1/(1-RA)].

Referring to the HEDL data reported in reference 2 and reproduced in attachment B, the uniform elongation (figure B.1 of attachment B) and the reduction of area (figure B.2 of attachment B) for type 304 stainless steel at 600

°F are not very dependent on strain rate. Based on the information contained in the two diagrams, appropriate

choices for ut and RA are 30-percent and 65-percent true absolute strain, respectively. The value of RA yields f/3 = 35-percent true absolute strain.

D. Stellite Overlay

The contact surface of the disc is protected against wear by a stellite overlay. This layer of different material was not modeled as a separate material in the present

analysis. While it would have been possible to do so, omitting the layer is justifiable

on the ground that larger strains will be predicted without the stellite and that this will

lead to a conservative evaluation.

10A.3.5 BODY MATERIAL The body material is A-216, Gr. WCB steel, which is listed in Appendix I of ASME Section III as

a carbon steel for casting purposes. Because no published data were available pertaining to

the effect of strain rate on the stress-strain characteristics of material, a number of tension tests

were performed on specimens machined from a blank of the casting material (supplied to TMR

by Atwood and Morrill).

The tests furnished the information on stress-strain diagrams and ductility summarized below.

(A report on the test program will be issued separately.

7)

A. Elastic Constants

For Young's modulus (E), the value provided in Appendix I of ASME Section III was selected. Poisson's ratio () was assumed to be 0.3, and the shear modulus (G) and bulk modulus (K) were computed from E and . Thus, at 600 F, FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-10 REV 23 5/11 1. E = 25.4 x 10 6 psi = 1.77 mbar.

2. = 0.3.
3. G = (E/2)/(1 + ) = 0.682 mbar.
4. K = (E/3)/(1 - 2) = 1.48 mbar.

B. Stress-Strain Diagram

Stress-strain diagrams obtained at different strain rates and in three orthogonal directions of the test blank are shown in figures 10A-13, 10A-14, and 10A-15. The

testing conditions are summarized in table 10A-2, which gives the dimensions of the

blank as well as the nominal strain rate and the direction of loading for each of

11 test specimens. The Z-direction is the thickness direction of the cast material, whereas the x and Y directions are arbitrary inplane directions, metallographic

examination of samples normal to the three directions furnished evidence of a

uniform grain structure without a preferred orientation.

Inspection of the stress-strain diagrams in figures 10A-13 through 10A-15 reveals only a minor dependence of the results on loading direction and strain rate. The

material appears to soften slightly with increase in strain rate, but for analytical

purposes, the material can be assumed to be isotropic and strain-rate insensitive.

Also depicted in figures 10A-13 through 10A-15 is the trilinear stress-strain diagram assumed for the PISCES solution. The reader will note that the diagram is chosen

well below the measured diagrams. One reason for this choice was that the

material characterization should be conservative in view of the fact that the tests

were few in number and that strain rates as high as 1000 s-1 could not be achieved.

Here it should be recognized that lowering the stress-strain curve will lead to

increased strains. This, in turn, leads to a conservative evaluation because of the

use of criteria that place limits on strain. A second reason for lowering the

stress-strain curve was the need to compensate for a yield strength measured at

room temperature that was higher than the minimum yield strength given in

Appendix I of ASME Section III.

The assumed stress-strain diagram is also shown in figure 10A-12, where it can be compared to the diagram for the disc material. The values of y , ut , and E t for the body material are:

1. y = 30,000 psi = 2.07 x 10

-3 mbar. 2. ut = 62,000 psi = 4.28 x 10

10A-11 REV 23 5/11 C. Ductility Parameters

As mentioned in the discussion of the disc material, the ductility parameters to be used in the evaluation of the PISCES solution are ut and f. Table 10A-2 furnishes the measured values of u and RA, and also the values of ut and f derived from u and RA. Inspection of the tabulated values reveals a slight tendency for increased ductility at higher strain rates. (The low value of ut for specimen No. 14 appears to be a spurious result.)

By averaging the values from all 11 tests, the following result is obtained: ut = 11-percent true absolute strain, and f = 88-percent true absolute strain. The strain criteria for the body will be based on these averages.

D. Stellite Overlay

The contact surface of the body seat is protected against wear by a stellite overlay.

This overlay was not modeled in the body as a separate material for the same

reasons that it was not in the disc.

10A.3.6 INITIAL CONDITIONS AND BOUNDARY CONDITIONS A. Initial Positions of Body and Disc

It is assumed in the PISCES solution that the moving disc will first contact the stationary body at time t = 0, the starting point of the solution. It is also assumed

that the still undeformed contact faces will at that point in time meet in the plane

defined by the axial position x = 0.

B. Constraint on Body Motion

During the impact event, axial motion of the body is rigidly constrained at the upstream end of the model (at x = 100 in.). No such constraint is imposed at the

downstream end (at x = -100 in.) so that the total length of the model is permitted to

change.

C. Initial Disc Velocity

The disc velocity at impact is 150 ft/s (4.58 cm/

µs). This velocity was determined in attachment C by matching the kinetic energy of disc translation to the kinetic energy of disc rotation. The rotational energy was known from the fluid dynamics analysis

reported in attachment D.

D. Pressure Loading

A constant pressure of 705 psig (4.86 x 10

-5 mbar) is maintained on the upstream side of the valve for the duration of the impact event.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-12 REV 23 5/11 E. Initial Material Densities

The initial density of model materials in the PISCES code is entered as a relative density (the density relative to that of water). Hence, for the steels used in the disc and body, the relative density (s) is 7.85. In the analysis performed, the mass of the post, nut, and arm attached to the disc was accounted for by assuming that a higher-density material normally occupies the threaded hole in the center of the

disc. The density of this material was selected such that its mass was equivalent to

that of the post, nut, and arm combined. With reference to attachment C, the relative density of the equivalent material (e) is found from the relation e = 14.6 s. The equivalent material is occupied by the first five rows of zones in the disc model.

The higher density derived in attachment C pertains to the original disc arm design

reflected in figure 10A-1. As stated in section 10A-1, the redesigned disc arm

shown in figures 10A-2 and 10A-3 will result in less severe loading of the disc by the

disc arm. That is, the disc arm load is now applied in the rim region where its

contribution to disc loading is insignificant. Loading at the center of the disc has

been reduced to that due to the mass of the post, which is integral with the disc in

the modified disc arm design. The mass of the post is less than the equivalent

mass of post, arm, and nut in the original arm design so that the analysis as

performed will be conservative.

10A.3.7 PISCES SOLUTION A trial solution with the full model provided the value of the stable step between computation cycles as 0.385

µs. The initial time step was specified as 0.025

µs, a value computed by means of a formula provided in the PISCES Input Manual (reference 5). Subsequent time steps are determined internal to the code to ensure numerical stability in the computation. The stable

time step was reached in 13 cycles.

The final solution was executed for 3000 cycles. The associated elapsed time was 1150

µs. Standard computer output was printed at intervals of 200 cycles; nonstandard output was printed at intervals of 50 cycles. The nonstandard output was acquired by means of a specially-written subroutine (called EXOUT). It furnished the following results: effective strain

() , axial strain (x), radial strain (y), hoop strain (z), shear strain (xy), and effective stress

(). Effective stress and effective strain are computed from stress and strain components with the following formulas from plasticity theory:

()()()()=+++1/2 6 xy 2 yz 2 zx 2 xy 2 1/2 ()()()()=+++2/3-6 xy 2 yz 2 zx 2 xy 2 1/2 It should be noted that the geometry of the PISCES model is continually updated (following each computation cycle) so that the stress components x , y , z , and xy are true stresses and FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-13 REV 23 5/11 the strain components x , y , z , and xy are true strains. Consequently, and are also true quantities. It should further be noted that xy is the tensorial shear strain, which is twice the engineering shear strain.

10A.4 PISCES RESULTS Pertinent information extracted from the PISCES solution is presented in this section of the

report.

At this point, an introduction is needed to explain the convention employed in the PISCES code

for identifying grid points and grid zones. The grid is defined by columns and rows, indexed

I and J, respectively. Figures 10A-16 and 10A-17 show the column and row numbering

schemes adopted for the disc and body. A particular grid point in the model is defined by the

values of I and J of the row and column that intersect at that point. For instance, point 11, 31 refers to outermost point on the front face of the disc. A grid zone is bounded by two

columns, I and J + 1 and by two rows J and J + 1. A zone is defined by the values of I + 1 and

J + 1. Thus, as an example, zone 12, 31 is the outermost zone on the front side of the disc.

10A.4.1 DISSIPATION OF KINETIC ENERGY In table 10A-3, the kinetic energy in the model is tabulated versus the time elapsed since

impact. To facilitate the interpretation of the results, the kinetic energy is also given as a

percent of its initial value. The latter results furnish the curve plotted in figure 10A-18. It is

apparent from the diagram that the kinetic energy is dissipated at a rate that decreases with time from t = 0 to t = 300

µs, and again from t = 700

µs on. In the timespan from t = 300

µs to t 700 µs, the rate of energy dissipation is practically constant. At solution termination time, t = 1150 µs, 97.2 percent of the kinetic energy has been dissipated. The graphical extrapolation of the curve in figure 10A-18 indicates that for practical purposes the duration of the impact is

approximately 1300

µs. 10A.4.2 MAXIMUM DEFLECTION OF DISC The position of various points on the disc as a function of time is given in table 10A-17. The

data tabulated for the axial position of the surface points on the disc centerline yield the axial displacement curves portrayed in figure 10A-19. At the extrapolated time of 1300

µs, the displacement (U x) is 1.77 in. at the front surface and 1.84 in. at the back surface.

Also shown in figure 10A-19 is a straight line which depicts the axial displacement of the disc in

free motion (no impact). Since the computed displa cement curves are initially above the line, it is clear that following impact, the center of the disc accelerates before it slows down.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-14 REV 23 5/11 10A.4.3 MAXIMUM VELOCITY IN DISC A plot of axial velocity versus time is shown in figure 10A-20 for the two surface points on the

centerline of the disc. The axial velocity (x) reaches a maximum value of 175 ft/s at the front

surface and 179 ft/s at the back surface.

10A.4.4 GEOMETRIC DISTORTION The progressive geometric distortion of the valve model may be observed in figures 10A-21, 10A-22, and 10A-23 where grid plots obtained at 300, 700, and 1150

µs after impact are shown.

Figure 10A-24 is a superposition of the distorted shape at the end of the solution (t = 1150

µs) on the undistorted shape (t = 0).

Inspection of the geometry plot in figure 10A-21 reveals that the disc fillet below the contact

zone has flattened out. As a consequence, the corner of the body starts to indent the zone of

the disc just opposite this corner. The PISCES code permits this to happen. Evidence of such

indentation is evident in figures 10A-22 and 10A

-23 where the body grid appears to overlap the

disc grid. The overlap is not a physical reality. It is a consequence of the plotting routine, which

is based on connecting grid points by straight lines and which does not recognize indentation of

a zone located in a contact region. The actual geometric distortion is sketched in figure 10A-24.

In the PISCES code, penetration can occur only at contact surfaces. The contact surfaces have

to be columns. The column on the stationary part of the model is usually the so-called master

column, and the column on the moving part is the slave column. Grid points on the master

column can indent the slave column, but grid points on the slave column cannot indent the

master column. An optional feature of the master slave approach in the PISCES code permits

the formation of voids between the contacting surfaces. While this option was demonstrated to

work in a preliminary computer run and then exercised in the full PISCES solution, the results

obtained produced no clear evidence that any separation between disc and body occurred in

the contact zone.

10A.4.5 STRAIN HISTORY PLOTS The accumulation of strain as time progresses is best illustrated by means of history plots. All

plots to be presented contain four curves, each portraying the strain in a given zone. The

applicable zones are identified by column and row numbers in the manner explained at the

beginning of section 10A.4.

A. Body Strains

The largest body strains occur in the two columns of zones adjacent to the contact surface. Representative history plots for this region are shown in figures

10A-25 and 10A-26. They indicate that effective strains in the body reach stable values in about 900

µs. The maximum effective strain in the body is 14.7 percent and occurs at zone 9, 17.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-15 REV 23 5/11 B. Disc Strains

Effective strains in the rim region are largest in the four rows of zones for which the results are plotted in figures 10A-27 through 10A-30. It is seen that the strains tend

to stabilize faster than in the body, although complete stabilization again requires about 900

µs. The maximum strain in the rim region is 17.4 percent and is found at zone 13, 27.

Results for the central portion of the disc are plotted in figures 10A-31 through 10A-38. Figures 10A-31 through 10A-34 give the effective strain () , the axial strain (x), the radial strain (y), and the hoop strain (z), respectively, for four zones spaced along the front surface of the disc. Likewise, figures 10A-35 through

10A-38 give the corresponding results for the back surface. The two sets of results

show that the front surface is more severely strained than the back surface. A

comparison with the results for the rim region indicates that strains in the central

region do not begin to accumulate significantly until after most of the strain

accumulation in the rim region is over. At solution termination time, the effective

strain reaches a maximum of 14.3 percent at the center on the front side and 10.4 percent at the center on the back side. Extrapolation to time t = 1300

µs increases these values to 14.6 percent and 10.6 percent, respectively.

10A.4.6 STRESS HISTORY PLOTS Because of the severe straining of the body and disc, strains are of considerably more interest

and importance than stresses. For this reason, only two history plots were obtained. These

pertain to the effective surface stress in the central region of the disc. Figures 10A-39 and

10A-40 show the results for the front surface and the back surface. The spikes in the curves below 200

µs are due to elastic unloading and reloading. In reality, there are many more spikes in the solution, but these are not seen because the results plotted are based on computer

output saved at every 50th time step. After 200

µs, the stresses are observed to rise monotonically. Stresses remaining at the completion of the event will be the sum of the residual stresses brought about by plastic deformation, and the stresses that are in equilibrium with the

pressure load on the upstream side of the disc.

10A.4.7 DISTRIBUTION OF STRAINS IN THE CONTACT REGION The distribution of effective strain () at times of 300, 700, and 1150

µs is shown in figures 10A-41 through 10A-43. As observed in subsection 10A.4.5, strains in the contact zone of the body clearly do not rise as fast as in the contact zone of the disc. The diagrams are also

instructive in showing that large strains in the body are confined to the immediate vicinity of the body seat. Furthermore, they show that the largest strains occur at some distances below the

contact surface, a phenomenon not uncommon to contact problems.

At solution termination time, the distributions of strains x , y , z , and xy are as presented in figures 10A-44 through 10A-47. It will be noted that at the high-strain locations, the sum of x ,

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-16 REV 23 5/11 y , and z is approximately zero. This is a consequence of the constant volume condition associated with plastic deformation.

10A.4.8 DISTRIBUTION OF STRAINS IN THE CENTRAL DISC REGION Figures 10A-48 through 10A-50 provide insight into the distribution of the effective strain at times of 300, 700, and 1150

µs. Similar results, but limited to the time of 1150

µs, are shown in figures 10A-51 through 10A-54 for x , y , z , xy. Along the centerline of the disc, x , y , and z are distributed as shown in figure 10A-55. The extrapolated values at the front surface are -17, 8.5, and 8.5 percent, respectively. At the back surface they are 14.4, -7.2, and -7.2 percent. The sum of the strains is zero in each case, which

is in accordance with the constant volume condition for plastic strain, elastic strains being small

compared to the plastic strains at the two locations considered.

10A.4.9 DISTRIBUTION OF STRESSES IN THE CENTRAL DISC REGION Distributions of , x , y , z , and xy radial plane of the disc are presented in figures 10A-56 and 10A-60. The values shown are in ksi (1 ksi = 1000 psi). The diagram for is particularly useful in that it reveals the extent of plastic deformation, as yielding occurs when exceeds 25 ksi. The results are for time t = 1150

µs. 10A.4.10 STRAIN RATES A tabulation of strain rates at several key locations is presented in tables 10A-5 and 10A-6.

Table 10A-5 gives strain rates at various times for the highest strained zones in the body and

disc, namely for zones 9, 17 and 13, 27. Strain rates as high as 500 s

-1 are noted for the body, and as high as 800 s

-1 for the disc.

Table 10A-6 gives strain rates for zones 12, 2 and 19, 2, which are located at the front surface

and back surface of the disc. Strain rates as high as 300 s

-1 and 200 s-1 are noted for these locations. The peak values are reached at time t = ~ 600

µs. This observation agrees with the observation of maximum slopes in the strain time plots (figures 10A-31 through 10A-38).

10A.5 EVALUATION The impact event associated with valve closure under faulted conditions constitutes an energy

dissipation problem. Thus, valve components will deform progressively until the kinetic energy

accumulated in the disc, disc post, and disc arm during closure has been dissipated through

plastic-strain energy absorption. In the analysis described in this report, it has been assumed, conservatively, that all the kinetic energy is absorbed by the body and disc.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-17 REV 23 5/11 Because the structure must absorb kinetic energy through plastic deformation, meaningful

acceptance criteria by which to judge the structural adequacy of the valve should consist of

limits placed on geometric distortion (to ensure proper functioning of the valve) and on strain (to

preclude fracture).

10A.5.1 DEFORMATION CONSIDERATIONS The obvious criterion for limiting deformation is that geometric distortion caused by the impact

shall not prevent the proper closure of the valve. Application of this criterion requires a

qualitative appraisal of the results of the PISCES solution.

Consideration of the deformed shape presented in figure 10A-24 shows that, in spite of

considerable geometric distortion, closure is unimpai red. In fact, as evident from the distorted grid plots in figures 10A-21 through 10A-23, the contact surface on the disc has moved radially

outward rather than inward, while the radius of the body seat opening has decreased slightly.

Figures 10A-23 and 10A-24 show that the body seat corner has indented the disc below the

stellite overlay. This condition is likely to cause higher strains than the PISCES solution is

capable of showing. However, such a condition can be circumvented by deepening of the fillet

in the disc by 0.1 in. This modification has been incorporated into the disc design. Since it is a

minor geometry change, the results of the PISCES solution will remain valid.

With reference to subsection 10A.4.2, the maximum deflection at the center of the disc is

1.84 in. Since any axial displacement of the shaft about which the disc rotates can be assumed

to be negligible, the large deflection of the disc could cause binding of the disc post in the collar

of the disc arm in the configuration analyzed. However, this concern has been eliminated by the

redesign of the disc arm mentioned earlier.

10A.5.2 EVALUATION AGAINST STRAIN CRITERIA The strain criteria presented below are intended to prevent fracture initiation caused by large

local strains in the contact region of body and disc, and excessive bending distortion in the

central portion of the disc. Each of the criteria is expressed in terms of the uniform elongation ut and the fracture strain f. Section 10A.3 furnishes the following values of these ductility parameters:

A. Disc (type 304 stainless steel) - ut = 30%, f/3 = 35%.

B. Body (type A-216 grade WCB steel) - ut = 11%, f/3 = 29%.

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-18 REV 23 5/11 10A.5.2.1 Local Strain Limits for Contact Region

The strain criteria adopted for limiting local strain are as follows:

A. Rule 1

If the hydrostatic stress component (x + y + z)/3 at the location of maximum effective strain is tensile, shall be limited to the smaller of ut and f/3. B. Rule 2

If the hydrostatic stress component (x + y + z)/3 at the location of maximum effective strain is compressive, shall be limited to the larger of ut and f/3. The first rule is justified on the basis that it would have been effective in preventing fracture in burst experiments on clamped discs which had a circumferential structural discontinuity near the

clamped edge. The results of the burst tests conducted on special disc specimens were

reported in reference 8 and analyzed in reference 9.(a) In the tests, the specimens were rigidly clamped along the rim and subjected to pressure on one face. Three materials with

different degrees of ductility were used, one of which was type 304 stainless steel. Depending

on the material and the disc dimensions, the discs failed in tension either at the rim fillet or in

the center. The rim failures resulted from strain concentration, the center failures resulted from

strain instability. By applying rule 1 to the maximum equivalent strain in the rim fillet, it was

ascertained that no rim failures would have occurred in the tests had they been interrupted when the true strain reached the lesser of u and f/3 of the materials involved.

Because fracture initiation is unlikely when the hydrostatic stress component is compressive, the second rule must be viewed as conservative from a fracture prevention point of view.

However, the rule also serves as a useful limit for preventing excessive local distortion of the

structure.

It is noted that for both the body and the disc, ut is smaller than f/3. For the body, ut = 11 percent, and f/3 = 29-percent true absolute strain; for the disc, ut = 30 percent, and f/3 = 35-percent true absolute strain.

Considering the body first, inspection of the strain distribution in figure 10A-43 shows that ut is exceeded only in three locations. At zone 9, 17, = 15 percent, and at zones 9, 16 and 10, 18, e = 12 percent. For each of these locations, the PISCES solution shows that the hydrostatic stress component is compressive, so that an effective strain as high as 29 percent is allowed.

Hence, the effective strains at the three locations are well within the limit provided by rule 2.

Therefore, the body is judged structurally adequate.

____________________

FNP-FSAR-10A

10A-19 REV 23 5/11 Inspection of figure 10A-43 also shows that does not exceed ut in the rim region of the disc.

That is, the maximum value of is 17 percent, whereas ut = 30 percent. Consequently, since the disc meets the limit provided by rule 1, ex amination of the hydrostatic stress component is unnecessary.

10A.5.2.2 Strain Limit for Central Region of Disc The criterion adopted for qualifying the central portion of the disc is the following:

A. Rule 3

The value of along the surfaces of the disc shall not exceed 60 percent of ut; i.e., 0.6 ut. Basis for this criterion is the observation gleaned from reference 10 that in an internally-pressurized thin-walled sphere, the uniform circumferential strain at maximum pressure will not be less than 0.3 ut , for materials whose strain-hardening exponent (n) is less than 0.3. (The precise formula given in reference 10 states that the ratio of the circumferential strain at maximum pressure and the uniform

elongation = (2/3) n). By neglecting elastic strains as being very small, it follows that is equal to twice the circumferential strain for such a sphere. Since n is less than 0.3 for most steels, limiting to 0.6 ut would ensure that the maximum pressure in the sphere is not reached. Unstable progressive distortion is thereby prevented.

Invoking rule 3 for the disc evaluation is a conservative procedure because pressure loading of

the thin-walled sphere produces membrane loading only, while the loading mode of the disc is primarily bending. However, a conservative rule on is desirable from the viewpoint that it places an indirect limit on gross geometric distortion.

The maximum value of is found at the center of the front surface, where it is 17 percent. This is less than 0.6 ut (18 percent), so that the central portion of the disc is also structurally adequate.

D-1 REV 23 5/11 D. Fluid Dynamics Impact Analysis of Main Steam Swing Disk Trip Value

The main steam swing disk trip valve, located in the main steam line outside

containment, prevents total blowdown of the steam generator following a downstream pipe rupture.

In operation, the swing disk assembly, consisting of the disk, disk post, and disk arm, is held in an open position some 65

° from its seat. Valve positioning is accomplished by means of a pneumatically actuated air cylinder. One hundred (100)-psig air applied to the air cylinder displaces a piston upward, and this motion is transmitted by linkage to

the trip valve shaft as rotary motion, raising the disk to its open position. In this position

the disk is clear of the main stream of flow through the valve. In displacing the air

cylinder upward, the pressurizing air also compresses a return spring located beneath

the air cylinder, which is coupled axially to the displaced piston.

Upon rupture of the downstream steam line, a signal is transmitted to the air cylinder

dump solenoid valves which are actuated, thereby initiating depressurization of the air

cylinder. Elapsed time from break to dump valve operation is 0.500 s. Prior to disk

motion, the 100-psig air cylinder pressure must decay to approximately 35 psig at which pressure the disk assembly is just maintained in its open position (65

°). As choked flow conditions exist at the dump valve exhaust to ambient, outflow is limited, and the

pressure decay occurs over approximately 1.0 s. Thus onset of disk motion occurs some 1.5 s following pipe rupture.

During downward motion of the disk, the disk is initially under the influence of only gravity and spring tension. After traversing an arc of 17.5

°, it enters the edge of the main steam flow and induces an ever-increasing as it swings across the final 47.5

° of arc toward closure at the valve seat.

Flow Conditions to be Analyzed

Two steam generator hot standby conditions will be evaluated for disk impact. The flow characteristics for each are summarized as follows:

Stm. Hammer Case 0 ,PSIA THROAT ,PSIA Quality,% Flow, SEC LBM PSI 1 1020 995 Dry & Sat. 2300 300 2 1020 995 4% 7800 150

FNP-FSAR-10A

D-2 REV 23 5/11 Upon rupture of the main steam line, choke flow occurs at the break and, concurrently, a pressure rarefaction wave travels upstream, at the local speed of sound, acceleration

the initially-stagnant steam toward the break. Initial steam outflow is that which occurs

from a 32-in. O.D. pipe at identical initial conditions.

As the rarefaction wave (C 0 1771 ft/s) reaches the 14-in. flow restrictor, choked flow is established at its throat, limiting steam generator outflow to those flow rates

noted above. Because the transition time to choking at the flow restrictor, 0.12 s, is considerably less than the 1.5-s delay until onset of disk motion, the closing disk will be exposed to only those choked flow rates noted, and not to the initial flow rate in the 32-in. pipe.

2) Fluid Torque due to the of steam flowing past the inclining disk.
3) Closing-spring Torque due to compressive load on returning spring.

D-5 REV 23 5/11 Choke Angle During initial descent of the disk from its open position, choked flow is assumed at the

valve seat. At some choke angle, the choke suddenly translates upstream from the

valve seat plane to that flow area described between the planes of the disk and seat.

Calculations of the choke angle are described in the sheets following.

D.2.3 CALCULATION OF ANGLE FOR ONSET OF CHOKED FLOW DURING CLOSURE OF THE SWING DISK VALVE

An attitude angle for the swing disk trip valve is computed for the onset of choked flow

across the closing valve. This condition begins at that instant when the effective orifice

area, i.e., that dihedral area between the disk plane and the plane of the valve seat, is

exactly equal to the cross-sectional area of flow across the valve seat. As we consider

the effective flow area, we must consider the elliptical surface area defined by the

intercepting "chords" as shown below.

The pressure at the exit plane must correspond to

the local sonic conditions.

If, in a limiting case, the break occurs downstream and adjacent to the valve

seat, the flow chokes at the valve seat, and M = 1.0, rather than 0.21 as

calculated above. In this case E Q. 11 of REF. 3 may be used to solve for the critical pressure at the seat.

saturated steam, flows at 7800 LBM/SEC. This represents a 2-phase blowdown

across the valve. In this case the initial fluid condition is taken as saturated

water at 1020 PSIA. During passage of the water through the pipe, the pressure

drop results in reduced temperature and enthalpy. The reduction in enthalpy is

manifested as latent heat of vaporization of the water, resulting in vapor

formation within the liquid. The mixture quality on crossing the valve is 4%.
