69-1106001 i Part II: Sccl1 Break phenomena - Descriction of Piant Eehavior ~ 1. Int oduction A loss-of-coolant accident is a condition in which liquid inventory is lost from the reactor coolant :ysten, Due to the loss of mass frem the reactor coolant system, the mest significant sher -tem symotem of a less-cf-coolant acefdent is an uncontrolled reduction in the reactor coolant systam pressure. The reactor protection system is designed to trip the reactor on icw pressure. This should occur before the reactor coolant system reaches saturation conditions. The existence of saturated conditiens within the reactor system is the principal longer-term indication of a LOCA and requires special consideration in the development of operating procecures. Following a reactor trip, it is necessary to remove decay heat frca the reac*.or core to prevent damage. However, so long as the reactor core is kept covered with cooling water, core damage will be avoided. The ECCS-systems are designed to respond automatically to low reactor coolant pressure conditiens and take the inital actions to protect the reactor core. They are si:ed to provide sufficient water to keep the reactor core covered even with a single failure in the ECCS systems. Subsequent operator actions are required ultimately to place the plant in a long-tem cooling mcde. The overall objective of the automatic emergency core cooling system and the followup operator actions is to keen the reactor core cool. A detailed discussion of the small break LOCA phenomenalogy is presented in this section. This discussion represents Part II of the operating procedure guidelines for the development of detailed operating procedures. Part I presents the more detailed step-by-step guidelines. -

69-1106001 The response of the primary system to a small break will greatly depend on break si:e, its location in the system, operatien of tne reactor coolant pumps, the number of ECCS trains functioning, and the availability of seccndary side cooling. RCS pressure and pressuri:er level histories for vaMous combinations of parameters are cresented in order to indicate the wide range of system behavior which can occur for small LOCA's. 2. Jacact of RC pumo Oceration on a Small t.0CA With the RC pumps operating during a small break, the steam and water will remain mixed during the transient. This will result in 1tquid being discharged cut the break continuously. Thus, the fluid in the RCS can evolve to a high void fraction.as shewn in Figure 1. The maximum void fraction that the system evolves to, and the time ~ it occurs, is dependent on the break size and location. Continued RCpump operation, even at high systcm void fractions, will provide sufficient core flow to keep cladding temperatures within a few degrees of the saturated fluid temperature. Since the RC4 can evolve to a high void fraction for certain small breaks with the RC pumps on, a RC ptap trip by any means (i.e., less of offsite power, equipment failure, etc.) at a high void fracticn during the small break transient may leed to inadequate core cooling. That is, if the RC pumps trip at a time period when the system void fraction is greater than approximately 70%, a core heatup will occur because the amount of water ~ left in the RCS would not be sufficient to keep the core covered. The cladding temperature would increase until core cooling is re-established by the ECC systams. For certain break sizes and times of RC pump trip, acceptable peak cladding temperatures during the event could not be assured and the core cculd be damaged. Thus, promet operator action to trip the 1 RC pumps upcn receipt of a low pressure ESFAS signal is requi.ed in order 69-1106001 to ensure that adequate core cooling is provided. Following the RC puno trip, the small break transient will evolve as described in the. subsequent sections. 3. Small 3reaks with Auxiliary Feedwater There are four basic classes of break response for s=all breaks with auxiliary feedwater. These are: 1. LOCA large enough to depressuri:e the reac*ar coolant system 2. LOCA which stabili:es at approximately secondary side pressure 3. LOCA which may repressurize in a saturated condition 4. Small LCCA which stabilizes at a primary system greater than secondary system pressure The system transients for these breaks are depicted in Figure.2. 3.1 LOCA Larce Enouch to Deeressurize Reactor Coolant System: Cunes 1 and 2 of Figure 2 show the response of RCS pressure to breaks that are large enough in combination with the ECCS to depressuri:e the system to a stable low pressure. ECCS injection easily exceeds core boil-off and ensures core :oolicg. Curves 1 and 2 of Figure 3 show the pressuri:er level transient. Rapidly falling pressure causes the hot legs to saturate quickly. Cold leg temperature reaches saturation somewhat later as RC pumps coast down or the RCS depressurizes below the secondary side saturation pressure. Since these breaks are capable of depressurizing the RCS l without aid of the steam generators, they are essentially unaffected by the availability of auxiliary feedwater. Upon receipt of a lcw pressure ESFAS signal, the operator must trip all RC pmps and verify that all ESFAS l acticns have been completed. The operator must also balance HpI flows such l that ficw is available through all HPI injection no::les even if only one HPI is available. The operator should also ba. lance LoI flews, shouTd the system be actuated, to ensure flew through both lines. The operator needs to take no further acticns to bring the system to a safe shutdcwn 69-1106001 condition. Rapid depressuri:ation of the steam generators would only act to accelerate RCS depressuri:ation. It is, however, not necessary. Restarting of the RC pumps is not desirable for this class of break. Long-te:-n cooling will require the operator to shift the LPI pump suction to the reactor building sump. 3.2 LOCA Which Stabilizes at Accroximately Secondary Side Pressure. Curve 3 of Figure 2 stiows the pressure transient for a break which is too small in combination with the operating HPI to depressuri:e the RCS. The steam ' generators are, therefore, necessary to remove a portion of core decay heat. Although the system pressure will initially stabili:e near the secondary side pressure, RCS pressure may eventually begin falling as the decay fieat level decreases. Curve 3 of Figure 3 shows pressuri:er level behavior. The hot leg temperature quickly equali:es to the saturated ( temperature of the secondary side and controls pHmary system pressure at saturation. The cold leg temperature may remain slightly subecoled. If the HPI refills and repressuri:es the RCS, the hot legs can become subecoled. The imediate operator action is to tHp the RC pumps upon receipt of the law pressure ESFAS signal and then verify E5FAS functions. The. operator must then balance HPI in order to ensure flow through each high pressure injection line. Followup action by the operator is to raise the emergency feedwater level to 95% on the operating range and check for established natural circulation. This is done by gradually depressuri:ing the steam generators. If this test fails, intermittent bumping of a RC pump should be performed as soon as one is available. Continued depressuri:stion of the steam generators with natural circulation leads to cooling and depressuri:ation of the RCS. The operator's goal. is to depressuri:e the RCS to a pressure that enables the ECCS to exceed core boil-off, pessibly refill the RCS, and to ultimately establish long-ter.n cooling. --

69-1106001 ~ .j 3.3 LCCA Which May Recressurize in a Saturated Condition. Curve 4 t of Figure 2 shcws the behavior of a small break that is.po small, in c::mbination with the HPI, to depressuri:e the pMmary system. Althougn steam generator feedwater is available, the loss of primar/ system coolant and the resultant RC5 voiding will eventually lead to interruption of natural circulation. This is followed by gradual repressuM:ation of the primary systam. It is possible that the primary system could repressuri:e as high as the pressuri:er safety valve setpoint before the pressure stabili:es. This is shown by the dashed line in Curve 4. Once enough inventory has been lost from the primary system to allow direct steam condensatien in the regions of the steam generators contacting secondary side coolant, the primary system is forced to depressurf:e to the saturation pressure of the secondary side. .Since the cooling, capabilities of the secondary side are needed to continue to remove decay heat, RCS pressure will not fall below that on the secondary side. HPI flow' is sufficient to replace the inventory lost to boiling in the core, and condensation in the steam generators removes decay heat energy. The RCS is in a stable thermal condition and it will remain there until the operator takes further action. The pressuri:er level response is characteri:ed by Curve 3 of Figure 3 duMng the depressuri:aticn, and Curve 4 of Figure 3 during the temporary repressuM:ation phase. The dashed line indicatss the level behavior if pressure is forced up to the pressuri:er safety valva setpoint. During this transient, het leg temperature will rapidly appreach saturation with the initial system depressuM:ation, and it will remain saturated during the whole transient. Cold leg tamperature will approach saturation as circulaticn is Icst, but may remain slightly subcooled during the repressuri:ation phase of the transient. Later RC5 depressuri:ation could cause the cold les tamparatures to reach saturation. Subsequent refilling of the primary -ts-

69-1106 col I system by the HPI might cause temporary interruption of steam condensation in the steam generator as the primarygide level Mses above the seconcary side level. If the depressuM:ation capability of the break and the HPI is insufficient to offset decay heat, the primary system will ence mere repressuri:e. This decreases HPI flow and increases loss through the break until enougn RCS c olant is lest to once more allcw direct steam condensation in the steam generator. This cyclic behavior will stop once the HPI and break can bala'nce decay heat or the operator takes some action. The operator's imediate action is to trip the RC pumps upon receipt of the low pressure ESFAS signal and verify the completion of all ESFAS functions. The operator should then balance HPI flow. Following that, he should raise the~ steam generator level to 95% of the operating range and check for natural circulation. If it is positive, he should depressuri:e the steam generators, cool and depressuri:e the primary system, and attempt to refill it and establish long-term cooling. If the system fails to go into natural circulation, he should open the PORY long enough to bring and hold the RCS near the secondary side pressure. Once natural circulation is established or a RC pump can be bumped, he will be able to continue depressuri:ing the RCS with the steam generators and establish long-tem cooling. 3.4 Small t.0CA Which Stabili:es at Pa Psee. Curve 5 of Figure 2 shows the behavior'of the RCS pressure to a break for which high pressure injection is being supplied and exceeds the leak flow before the pressuri:er has emptied. The primary system remains subcooled and natural circulation to the steam generator removes core decay heat. The pressuri:er never emoties and continues to control primary system pressure. The operator needs to trip the RC pumps and ensure that ESTAS acticns have occured. Throttling of HPI ~ 0 is permitted only after RCS subcooling of 50 F has been established, the pressuri:er has refilled, and natural or forced circulation has been ~ ~ 1

69-1106001 ~ verified. A restart of the RC pumps under these conditions is desirable for plant centrol. 3.5 Small Breaks in pressurizer. The system pressure transiene for a small break in the pressuri:er will behave in a manner similar to that previously discussed. The initial decressuri:stien, however, will be more rapid as the initial inventory less is entirely steam. The pressuri:er level response for these accidents will initially behave like a very small break without auxiliary feedwater. The initial rise in pressurizer level shown in Figure 4 will occur due to the pressurs reduction in the pressuri:er and an insurge of coolant into the pressurizer from the RCS. Once the reactor trips, system contraction causes a decreasing level in the pressurizer. Flashing will ultimately occur in the hot leg piping and cause an insurge into the pressurizer. This ultimately fills the pressurizer. For the remainder of the transient, the pressuri:er will remain full..Toward the later stages of the transient, the pressurizer may contain a two-phase ihre and the indicated level will show that the pressurizer is only partially full. Except for. closing the p0RV block valve, operator actions ind system response are the same for these breaks as for similar breaks in the loops. 4. Small Breaks Without Auxiliary Feedwater There are three basic classes of break response for small breaks without auxiliary feedwater. These are: 1. Those breaks capable of relieving all decay heat via the break. 2. Breaks that relieve decay heat with both the HpI injection and via the break. 3. Breaks which do not automatically actuate the HpI and result in system reoressuri:ation. The system pressure transients for these breaks are depicted in Figure 5..

69-12.06001 ~-- I 4.1 LOCA's Laree Enouch to Deeressuri:e Reactor Coolant System. For Class 1 (curve 1 of Figure 5), RC system pressure decreases smoothly throughout the transient. For the larger breaks in this class, CFT actuation and LpI injection will probably occur. For the smaller breaks of this class only CFT actuation will occur. Auxiliary feedwater injection is not necessary for the short-tern stabili:ation of these breaks. The pressurizer level for this transient rapidly falls off scale. Operator action and plant response are similar to these described for this class of breaks with a feedwater supply. 4.2 LOCA's Which Reach a Semi-Stabili:ed State. For Class 2 (Curve 2 of Figure 5) breaks, the RC pressure will rapidly reach the low ;iressure ESFAS trip signal (about two to three minutes). With the HPI's on, a slow system depressurization will be established coincident with the decrease in core decay heat. No CFT actuation is expected. Auxiliary feedwater is not necessary for the short-tenn stabilization of. these breaks. The pressuri:er level for this transient rapidly falls off scale. The operator needs to trip the RC pumps upon the 1cw pressure ESFAS signal, verify completion of all ESFAS functions, and try to establish secondary side cooling. Balancing of the HPI must also be performed. If steam generator feedwater cannot be obtained and RCS pressure is increasing, the operator should open the PCRV and provide all the HPI and makeup capability possible. The goal is to depressurize and cool the core with the ECCS, the PCRY, and the break. If secondary s1de cooling is again established, the operator should verify natural circulation, and if unavailable, bump a RC pump to conglete RCS cooldown with the steam generators. At this point, the PORY can be closed, the systam refilled, and icng-tann cooling established.

69-1106001 I 4.3 Small LCCA's Which do not Actuate the ESFAS. Automatic ESFAS actuation will not occur for Class 3 (Curve 3 of Figure 5) breaks. l Once the SG secondary side inventory is boiled off, system repressurizatien will occur as the break is not capable of removing all the decay heat being generated in the core. System repressurization to the p0RV or the pres-surizer safety valves will occur for smaller breaks in this class. For the "zero" break case, repressuri:ation to the p0RV will occur in the first five minutes. Operator action is required within the first 20 minutes to ensure core coverage throughout the transient. For the 177-FA lowered loop plants, this action can be either manual actuation of the auxiliary feedwater system or the HPI system. The establishment of auxiliary feedwater will rapidly depressurize the RCS to the E5FAS actuation pressure, and system pressure will stabili:e at either the seconuary side SG pressure or at a pressure where the HPI equals the leak rate. Upon receipt of the low pressure E5FAS signal, the operator must trip the RC pumps. i For the Class 3 breaks, pressuriter level response will be as shown in Figure 6. The minimum refill time for the pressuri:er is that for the. "zero" break and is shown in Figure S. After initially drawing inventory from the pressuri:er, the system repressurization will cause the pressuri:er level to increase, possibly to full pressuri:er level. Once the operator action to restore auxiliary feedwater has been taken, the system

~ ~ ~ ' 69-1106001 decressuri:ation will result and cause an outsurge fr:m the pressuri:er. Complete Icss of pressuri:er level may result. For the smaller breaks in Class 3 which result in a system repressuri:ation folicwing the actuation of the HPI system, pressuri:er level will increase and then stabili:e. Without auxiliary feedwater, both the hot and cold leg temperatures will saturate early in the transient and, for the Class 1 and 2 breaks, will remain saturated. Fcr the Class 3 breaks, once auxiliary feedwater is estelished, the cold leg temperatures will rapidly decrease to approximately the sautration temperature corresponding to the SG secondary side pressure and will remain there throughout the remainder of the transient. Hot leg temperatures will remain saturated thmughert the event. The operator needs to manually initiate all ESFAS actions, balaoce HpI flow, and attempt to restore secondary side cooling. In the meantime, he i should actuate the makeup pump and open the PORY in order to cool the enre and limit the RCS repressuri:ation. Once feedwatc-is available, he can close the PORY and continue the RCS cooldowr and depressurization with the steam generators. If natural circulation has not been established, he can bump a RC pump to cause forced circulation. The goal is to depressuri:e to where the ECCS can refill the RCS and guarantee long-tern cooling. 4.4 Small Breaks in pressuri:er. See the writeup for small breaks in pressuri:er with feedwater. Small breaks in the pressuri:er wtli differ frem those in the 1 cops in the same manner as those previcusly described in the section addressing small breaks in the pressuri:er with auxiliary feed. 5. Transients with Initial Resoonse similar to a small Break ~ Several transients give initial alarus similar to small breaks. These transients will be distinguished by additicnal alarms and indications or subsequent systen response. Overcooling transients such as steam ifne breaks, increased feedwater..

69-1106c01 ~ 1 i flow, and steane generator overfill can cause RC3 pressure decreases witn l'ow-pressure reactor tMp and ESFAS actuation. But steam line breaks . Actuate icw steam pressure alarns for the affected steam generator, and steam generator over# ills result in high steam generator level indications. The overcooling transients will repressuri:e the primary system because of HPI actuation, and will return to a subcooled conditien duMng repres-sum:ation. The immediate actions for both overcooling and s=all break transients are the same, including tripping of the RC pumps. The operator will recogni:e overcooling events during repressurization, if not sooner, and is instructed to throttle HPI and restart the RC pumps, j if subecoled conditions are established, by the small break operating instructions. A loss-of-feedwater transient wili result in a high reactor system pressure alarm but does not give an ESFAS actuation alarm. A loss of integrated control system power transient starts with a high RC pressure trip. After the reactor trip, this becomes an overcooling transient and will give low reactor system pressure and possibie ESFAS actuation. Steam generator levels remain high and the system becomes subcooled during repressuM:ation. Design features of the B&W NSS provide automatic protection during the early part of small break transients, thereby providing adequate time for small breaks to be identified and apprcpriate action taken to protect the system. The only prompt manual operator action required is to tM p the RC pumps once the low pressure ESFAS signal is reached. 6. Iransients that micht Initiate a LOCA There are no anticipated transients that might initiate a LOCA since the PCRV has been reset to a higher pressure and will not actuate during anticipated transients such as loss of main feedwater, turbine Mp, or loss of offsite power....

~ 69-1106001 ~ However, if the PORY should lift anc, fail to reset, there are a ~ number of indications which differentiate this transient.(rem the anticicated l I trensients identified above. These include: o ESFAS actuation o Quench tank pressure / temperature alarms o Saturated primary system o Rising pressuri:er level These additienal signals will identify to the operator that in addition to the anticipated transient, a LOCA has occurred. In the unlikely event that small breaks other than a 21 functioning PCR7 cccur after a transient, they can be identified by initially decreasing RCS pressure and convergence to saturation conditions in the reactor coolant. Small break repressuri:ation, if it occurs, will fo11cw saturatien conditiens. By remaining aware of whether the reactor ecof ant remains subecoled or becomes saturated after transients, the operator is able to reccgni:e when a small break has occurred. s. HPI Throttlim For small LOCA's, the HPI system is needed to provide makeup to the RCS and must rema,in operable unless specific criteria are satisfied. The basis for these criteria are described below. For certain small breaks, systen depressuri:ation will result in LPI actuation. Since the LPI is designed to provide injection at a greater capacity than the HPI, termination of t!.e HPI is allered. Mcwever, this ~ action should only be taker if the ficw rate through each line is at least 1000 gpm and the situation has been stamie for 20 minutes. The 20-minute time delay is included to ensure that t.ie systan will not repressuri:e and result in a loss of the LPI fluid. In the event of a core flooding line break, the LPI fluid entering the broken core flooding line will not reach the vessel. 111us, in crder to ensure tha: fluid is continually being injected to the RV for all breds, the L?! must be providing fluid through both lines. The 1000 spa is equivalent to the ficw frem 21 _

~ 69-1106001 two HPI pumps and ensures that upon termination of the HPI ptanos, adequate flow is being delivered to the RY. Throttling or termination of the HPI flow is also allowed if all the following criteria are met: 0 A'. Hot and cold leg tamperatures are at least 50 F below the saturation tamperatures for the existing RCS pressure. B. The action is necessary to prevent the indicated pressurizer level from going off-scale high. under these conditicas, the priman sy: tam is solid. Continued HPI flow at full capacity may result in a solid pressurizer and wculd result in a lifting of the PORY and/or the pressurizer code safety valves. This mayintiurnleadtoaLOCA. Thus, HPI flow should be throttled to 0 mais;tain a stable invento'ry in te RCS. However, if the 50 F subccoling cannot be maintained, the HPI shall be immediately reactivated. HPI flows shduid also be throttled to prevent violation of the nil ductility temperature (NOT) for the reactor vessel. This concern can only arise if the fluid tamperature 8 within the reactor vessel 4 at least 50 F subcooled. A curve of the allowable dcwncaner temperature for a given RCS pressure is provided within the operating guidelines. The downcomer tamperature is detannined by one of two' methods: 1. If one or more RC pumps are cperative, the cold leg RTD reading will be essentially the same as the reactor vessel downcomer tamperature. 2. Without the RC pumps operating, the cold leg RTD's may not provide -

6 F1106001 temperature readings indicative of the actual RV downc:zner temperature, as a stagnant pool of water may exist at these locations. The incere thermoccuples will provide the best indicator of the dcwncomer temperature and should be utilized if no RC pumps are available. In order to ac: cunt for heat 0 added to the fluid from the core,150 F must be subtracted from the incore thennecouple readings to reflect the downc:m'er temperature. This method will result in temperatures which will be icwer than the j expected downcemer temperature. Thus, use of this methodology assumes that NOT will not be a problem. 9 e 9 9 9 1 l l S 9 -

TION Cy ?LANT 3EEAVICR 1.0 INTRODUCICN Folloviog a loss-of-coolan: accident (LCCA) in which the reactor trips, 1: is necessary to remove the decay hea: from the reactor core to preven: damage. Core hea: removal is accomplished by supplying cooli=g vater to :Se core. The va:e which is available for core cooling is a portion of the initial reactor coolan: systes (RCS) vater i=ventory plus any va:er injected by the emergency core cooling system (ECCS). The heat added to the cooling water is removed a via the steam genera:or and/or the break. As long as :he reactor core is hept covered with a mixture of va:.e: add steam, core damage vill b,e avoided. If the supply of coc11=g j l vatar to the core is decreased or in:e::up:ed, a lover

That is, if the RC pumps trip at a time period when :he sys:e= void fraction is greater than app;c=isately 7C%, a core hea:up will occur because the amount of water left in the RCS would not be sufficient to keep the core covered. The claddi=g te=pera:::e would increase until core cooling is re-es:ablished by the ICC systa=s. For certain 1 of RC pump ::1, accep:able peak cladding break si:es and times 7 tempera:ures during the event could not be assured and :he core could be damaged.
