211-39 211.0 REACTOR SYSTEMS BRANCH 211.166 Your response to first round question 222.1-2 is insufficier.t.'

(150)

We requested a description of the detailed caiculational method used, however, Section 15.1.5.3.2 of-the FSAR provides only a brief description of TRAP-2 code with reference to RADAR code. Also, recent discussions indicate that the Midland sterm line break analysis does not consider the effects of a stuck rod on the power distributions assumed in this analysis. We require that the power distr *bution dis-tortions caused by a stuck rod be considered during both the initial portion of your analysis and the later return to sub-critical power. Provide the detailed calculational: method used for the steamline break analysis.

211.167 Describe how all input parameters were_cottinei, trcluaing t;ie (15D) initial values. Other computer codes usid to generata input.

variables should also be identified.

question 222.1-5 requested transient axial end. radial power disse:butions instead of design peaking fact.ms. P rovide the answers to this question.

211.169 Provide a detailed description of how the radial, axial and (lSD) local hot channel factor; are applied in the RADAR code for the hot shannel and the core averzge crannel. Describe how tima dependence of the peaking factors is taken into account.

21T-41 211.175 Your response to question 211.48 with respect to demonstration (14.2) of ECCS recirculation flow from the reactor building sumo to (RSP) the Reactor Coolant System in accordance with Section C 1.b(2) of Regulatory Guide 1.79 is not acceptable. We require that you perform or reference tests which verify vortex control, available net positive suction head and acceptable pressure drops across screening, suction lines and valves, daring the recirce'ation mode of ECCS operation. Temporary holding facilities and/or scaled testing may be appropriate if suf tably justified.
