Dear Joe:

I would like to summarize the assumptions made in the SANDTA-ORIGEN(1) calculations delivered today via Dave Ericson.

The operating history of Three Nile Island-Unit 2 was based on data supplied by Dick Muranka and Jack Crooks of NRC (rncne:

492-7735).

Th3 new fuel composition is as follows:

Uranium - 2.66 w/o nominal enrichment:

234 U

0.03 w/o U

2.66 6

U 0.29 0

U 97.02 Cladding:

kg/MTU Zircaloy 4 281.1 SS-309 21.67 Inconel 11.92 Bl.

Core Size:

EE.0 MTU Licensed Power:

2772 MW thermal The reactor operating history is summarized in Table 1.

The column labeled "Cumula tive days " corresponds to the time steps used in the first and sclcond burnup phases in the code runs.

Mr. Joseph Murphy April 4, 1979 The decay phames start with the radionuclide inventory at the time of reactor shutdown (corresponds to cumulative days = 186.1) and calculates the inventory at 12 hour1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br /> intervals.

To provide long term data, I have made another run, two copies of which are enclosed.

The two burnup subcases are not printed, simply to save paper; the data would be the same as you already have.

Three decay subcases provide the inventory out to 10 days in 1 day steps, to 100 days in 10 day steps and to 1000 days in 100 day steps.

I hope this will assist in your analyses.

Please do not hesitate to call (day or night) if there is anything further you need (work:

FTS-475-3119, home:

505-298-1142).
