3.1-3 Amendments Nos, 38, 38 & 35

Bases - Unit l_

An components in the Reactor Coolant System are designed to withstand the effects of cyclic loads due to system temperature and pressure changes.

These cyclic loads are introduced by normal load transients, reactor trips, startup and shutdown operations, and inservice leak and hydrostatic tests.

The various categories of load cycles used for design purposes are provided in Table 4.8 of the FSAR.

The major components of the reactor coolant pressure bo.ndary have been analyaed in accordance with Appendix G to 10CFR50.

Results of this analysis, including the actual pressure-te=perature limitations of the reactor coolant pressure boundary, are given in BAW-1421(7),

Figures 3.1.2-1A, 3.1.2-2A, and 3.1.2-3 present the' pressure-temperature limit curves for normal heatup, normal cooldown and hydrostatic test respectively.

The limit curves are applicable up to the fifth effective full power year of operation. These curves are adjusted by 25 psi and 100F for possible errors in the pressure *and temperature sensing instruments.

The pressure limit is also adjusted for the pressure differential between the point of system pressure measurement and the limiting component for all operating reactor coolant pump combinations.

The pressure-temperature limit lines shown on Figure 3.1.2-1A for reactor criticality and on Figure 3.1.2-3 for hydrostatic testing have been provided to assure compliar:e with the minimum temperature require =ents of Appendix C to 10CFR50 for reactor criticality and for inservice hydrostatic testing.

The actual shif tI in RTET of the beltline region material will be established periodically during operation by removing and evaluating, in accordance with Appendix H to 10CFR50, reactor vessel material irradiation surveillance specimens which are installed near the inside wall of the reactor vessel in the core region.

The limitation on steam generator pressure and temperature provide protection against nonductile failure of the secondary side of the steam generator. At metal temperatures lower than the RTET of +600F, the protection against nonductile failure if achieved by limiting the secondary coolant pressure to 20 percent of the preoperational system hydrostatic test pressure.

The limitations of 1100F and 237 psig are based on the highest esti=ated RTET of +400F and the preoperational system hydrostatic test pressure of 1312 psig.

The average metal temperature is assumed to be equal to or greater than the coolant temperature.

The limitations include margins of 25 psi and 100F for possible instrument error.-

The spray temperature difference is imposed to maintain the thermal stresses at the pressurizer spray line nozzle below the design limit.

Bases Units 2 and 3_

l All reactor coolant system components are designed to withstand the effects (1)

These of cyclic loads due to system temperature and pressure changes.

cyclic loads are introduced by unit load transients, reactor trips, and unit heatup and cooldown operations.

The number of ther=al and loading cycles used for design putposes are shown in Table 4-8 of the FSAR.

The maximum unit heatup and cooldown rate of 1000F per hour satisfies stress limits for cyclic operation.

(2) The 237 psig pressure limit for the secondary side of the steam generator at a ':emperature less than 11GoF satisfies stress levels for temperatures below the DTT.

(3)

The reactor vessel plate material and welds have been tested to verify conformity to specified requirements and a maximum NDTT value of 200F has been determined based on Charpy V-Notch tests. The maximum NDTT value obtained for the steam generator shell material and welds was 40cy.

Figures 3.1.2-13 and 3.1.2-2B contain the limiting reactor coolant system l

pressure-temperature relationship for operation at DTT(4) and below to assure that stress levels are low enough to preclude brittle fracture.

These stress levels and their bases are defined in Section 4.3.3 of the FSAR.

As a result of fast neutron irradiation in the region of the core, there will be an increase in the NDTT with accumulated nuclear operation. The predicted maximum NDTT increase for the 40-year exposure is shown on Figure 4.10.(4)

The actual shift in NDTT will be determined periodically during plant opera-tion by testing of irradiated vessel material samples located in this reactor vessel.(5)

The results of the irradiated sample testing will be evaluated and compared to the design curve (Figure 4-11 of FSAR) being used to predict the increase in transition temperature.

The design value for fast neutron (E > 1 MeV) exposure of the reactor vessel is 3.0 x 1010 n/cm2 -- s at 2,568 We rated power and an integrated exposure l

of 3.0 x 1019 n/cm2 for 40 years operation.

(6)

The calculated maximum values are 2.2 x 1010 n/cm2 -- s and 2.2 x 1019 n/cm2 integrated exposare for 40 years operation at 80 percent load.

(4)

Figure 3.1.2-1B is based on the design value which is considerably higher than the calculated value.

The DTT value for Figure 3.1.2-1B is based on the projected NDTT at the end of the first two years of operation.

During these two years, the energy output has been conservatively estimated to be 1.7 x 106 thermal megawatt days, which is equivalent to 655 days at 2,568 W t core power. The projected 18 fast neutron exposure of the reactor vessel for the two years is 1.7 x 10 n/cm2 which is based on the 1.7 x 106 thermal megawatt days and the design value for fast neutron exposure.

The actual shift in NDTT will be established periodical'ly during plant operation by testing vessel m.~.terial samples which are irradiated cumulatively by securing them near the inside wall of the vessel in the core area.

To compensate for the increases in the NDTT caused by irradiation, the limits on the pressure-temperature relationship are periodically changed to stay within the established stress limits during heacup and cooldown.

3.1-4 Amendments Nos. 38, 38 & 35 i

The NDrr shift and the magnitudes of the thermal and pressure stresses are sensitive to integrated reactor power and not to instantaneous power level.

Figure 3.1.2-1B and 3.1.2-2B are applicable to reactor core thermal ratings up to 2,568 MWt.

The pressure limit line on Figure 3.1.3-1B has been selected such that the l

reactor vessel stress resulting from internal pressure will not exceed 15 percent yield strength considering the following:

1.

A 25 psi error is measured pressure.

4 2.

System pressure is measured in either loop.

3.

Maximum differential pressure between the point of system pressure measurement and reactor vessel inlet for all operating pump combinations.

For adequate conservatism in fracture toughness including size (thickness) affect, a maximum pressure of 550 psig below 2750F with a maximum heatup and cooldown rate of 500F/hr has been imposed for the initial two year period as shown on Figure 3.1.2-13.

During this two year period, a fracture toughness criterion applicable to Oconee Units 2 and 3 beyond this period will be developed by the AEC.

It will be based on the evaluation of the fracture toughness properties of heavy section (thickness) steels, both irradiated and unirradiated, for the AEC-HSST program and the PVRC program, and with considerations of test results of the Oconee Units 2 and 3 reactor. l surveillance programs.

The spray temperature difference restriction is imposed to maintain the I

thermal stresses at the pressurizer spray line nozzle below the design limit.

Temperature requirements for the steam generator correspond with the measured NDTT for the shell.

m 1.1.3 Minimum conditions for criticality Specification _

3,1.3.1 The reactor coolant temperature shall be above 5250F except for portions of low power physics testing when the requirements of Specification 3.1.9 shall apply.

3.1.3.2 Reactor coolant temperature shal1 be above the criticality limit of 3.1.2-1A (Unit 1) or above DTT + 100F (Units 2 and 3).

3.1.3.3 When the reactor coolant temperature is below the minimum te=pera-ture specified in 3.1.3.1 above, except for portions of low power physics testing when the requirements of Specification 3.1.9 shall apply, the reactor shall be suberitical by an amount equal to or greater than the calculated reactivity insertion due to depressuri-zation.

3.1.3.4 The reactor shall he maintained subcritical by at least lLik/k until a steam bubble is for=ed and a water level between 80 and 396 inches is established in the press.urizer.

3.1.3.5 Except for physics tests and as limited by 3.5.2.1, safety rod groups shall be fully withdrawn prior to any other reduction in shutdown =argin by deboration or regulating rod withdrawal during the approach to criticality.

The regulating rods shall then be positioned within their position limits defined by Specification 3.5.2.5 prior to deboration.

Bases At the beginning of the initial fuel cycle, the moderator temperature coeffi-cient is expected to be slightly positive at operating temperatures with the operating configuration of control rods.(1)

Calculations show that above 5250F, the consequences are acceptable.

Since the moderator temperature coefficient at lower temperatures will be less negative or more positive than at operating temperature,(2) startup and operation of the reactor when reactor coolant temperature is less than 3250F is prohibited except where necessary for low power physics tests.

The potential reactivity insertion due to the moderator pressure coefficient (2) that could result from depressurizing the coolant from 2100 psia to saturation pressure of 900 psia is approximately 0.lak/k.

During physics tests, special operating precautions will be taken.

In addi-tion, the strong negative Doppler coefficient (1) and the small integrated Ak/k would limit the magnitude of a power excursion resulting from a redcc-l l

tion of moderator density.

The requirement that the reactor is not to be made critical below the limits i

of Specification 3.1.2-1 provides increased assurance that the proper relatien-l ship between primary coolant pressure and temperature will be maintained rela-tive to the NDTT of the primary coolant system.

Heatup to this temperature will be accomplirhad by operating the reactor coolant pumps.

l l

3.1-8 Amendments Nos. 38, 38 & 35

If the shutdown margin required by Specification 3.5.2 is maintained, there is no Possibility of an accidental criticality as a result of a decrease of coolant pressure.

The requirement for pressurizer bubble formation and specified water level when the reactor is less than 1% suberitical will assure that the reactor coolant system cannot become solid in the event of a red withdrawal accident or a startup accident.(3)

The requirement that the safety rod groups be fully withdrawn before criti-cality ensures shutdown capability during startup.

This does not prohibit rod latch confirmation, i.e., withdrawal by group to a caximum of 3 inches withdrawn of all seven groups prior to safety rod withdrawal.

The requirement for regulating rods being within their rod position limits ensures that the shutdown margin and ejected rod criteria at hot zero power are not violated.
