$ECONDARY WATER CHEMISTRY-Centamination of the steam generator secondary coolant can cause Generally, the mos,t potential tube degradation and impair tube integrity.
severe contamination results from condenser inleakage of causticforaing impurities that may accumulate on the secondary side of the steam gen-erator, or on the high heat flux surfaces of the steam generator tubes can lead to the potential for intergranular stress corrosion cracking.
Monitoring of the condenser condensate by cation conductivity is an
~
The leakage rate effective means of detecting condenser tube inleakage.
can then be determined by comparing the cation concentration in the. con-The den 5 ate with the cation concertration in the condenser cooling water.
cation conductivity of the steam generator final feedwater will indicate when blowdown is required to remove the accumulation of caustic forming Monitor-impurities and the scale forming solids in the steam generator.
ing the pH and free hydroxide the final feedwater provides a means to initiate balance of corrective actions needed to restore the operating secondary coolant. Monitoring the total solids in the final feedwater will indicate the potential accumulation of solids and the necessity for blowdown to minimize sludge buildup.
Controlling the secondary water chemistry within the specified limits will control the potential accumulation of corrosive impurities in the These limits provide st um generator and minimize tube degradation.
reasonable assurance that the conditions in the steam generator will minimize the potential for tube degradation during all conditions of These measures ensure the continued operation, and postulated accidents.
protection of the steam generator tubing,thich is an essential part of the reactor coolant pressure boundary.
