Dear Mr. Anderson:
SUBJECT:
STAFF REVIEW 0F WCAP-8691 Our review of certain aspects of WCAP-8691 (Proprietary) " Fuel Rod Bowing" has been completed.
Your letter NS-TMA-1924 dated September 1, 1978, advised us of your plan to submit a revised topical report on fuel rod bowing to include new information requested in our June 19, 1978 letter.
Subsequently you have submitted supplemental information regarding the effect on critical heat flux of a partially bowed heated rod in a cold wall thimble cell geometry.
We have reviewed the supplemental information regarding the effect on critical heat flux of a partially bowed rod. We have concluded that the supplemental information provides an acceptable basis for calculating critical heat flux on bowed rods.
Our evaluation is enclosed.
Please incorporate the supplemental information into the revision to WCAP-8691.
Sincerely, John F. Stolz, Ciief Light Water Reactors Branch No. 1 Division of Project Management
