SUMMARY

f This report provides an evaluation of the design and performance for the operation of Fort l Calhoun Station Unit No.1 during its thirteenth fuel cycle at a full rated power of 1500 MWt. .

Planned operating conditions remain the same as those for Cycle 12, unless otherwise -

I noted in the proposed Technical Specification changes, j i

i The core will consist of 93 presently operating batches L M and N assemblies and 40 '

fresh Batch P assemblies.

The Cycle 13 analysis is based on a Cycle 12 termination point between 10,000 MWD /  !

MTU and 12,000 MWD /MTU. In performing analyses of design basis events, limiting safety  :

system settings ard limiting conditions for operation, limiting values of _ key parameters  ;

were chosen to assure that expected Cycle 13 conditions would be enveloped, provided the Cycle 12 termination point falls within the above range. The analysis presented herein >

will accommodate a Cycle 13 length of up to 14.250 MWD /MTU with a coastdown of an additional 1,000 MWD /MTU.

The evaluation of the reload core characteristics have been conducted with respect to the Fort Calhoun Station Unit No.1 Cycle 12 safety analysis described in the 1989 update of the USAR, hereafter referred to as the " reference cycle" in this report unless noted other-wise.

Specific core differences have been accounted for in the present analysis. In all cases, it i has been concluded that either the reference cycle analyses envelope the new conditions or the revised analyses presented herein continue to show acceptable results. Where dictated by variations from the previous cycle, proposed modifications to the plant Technl-cal Specifications have been provided.

l The Cycle 13 core has been designed to minimize the neutron flux to critical reactor pressure vessel welds to reduce the rate of RTm shift of these welds, This will maximize the time to reach the screening criteria of the proposed amendment to.10 CFR 50.61 regulations as documented in the Federal Register, Volume 54, No. 246, pages 52,946 through 52,950. Tuesday, December 26,1989, which would change the procedure for calculating the amount of radiation embrittlement that a reactor vessel receives and make it consistent with the procedure given in Regulatory Guide 1.99, Revision 2.

1 The reload analysis presented in this report was performed utilizing the methodology l documented in Omaha Public Power District's reload analysis methodology reports (Ref-

{ erences 1, 2, and 3). These methods were also used to perform the Cycle 12 reload analysis, 4

l 2.0 OPERATING HISTORY OF CYCLE 12 I

Fort Calhoun Station is presently operating in its twelfth fuel cycle utilizing Batches J K, L. l M rnde N fuel assemblies. Fort Calhoun Cycle 12 operation began with criticality on Janu- l ar/ 29,1989, and reached full power on February 23,1989. The reactor has operated up .

j to the present time with the core reactivity, power distributions, and peaking factors having j closely followed the calculated predictions.

i it is estimated that Cycle 12 will be terminated on or about February 16,1989. The Cycle i 12 termination point can vary between 10,000 MWD /MTU and 12,000 MWD /MTU and still' be within the assumptions of the Cycle 13 analyses. As of December 31,1989, the Cycle ,

12 burnup had reached 9,447 MWD /MTU. l

3.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Cycle 13 core will consist of the number and type of assemblies and fuel batches shown in Table 3-1. Eight J assemblies, 8 K assemblies,21 L assemblies and 3 M assem-  :

blies will be discharged this outage. They will be replaced by 8 fresh unshimmed Batch P  !

assemblies (3.95 w/o enrichment) and 32 fresh shimmed Batch P assemblies (3.58 w/o  !

average enrichment. 0.027 gm Bio / inch), .

4 Figure 3-1 shows the fuel management pattern to be employed in Cycle 13, Two primary changes to the core are incorporated for Cycle 13. First, the average initial enrichment of the 40 fresh Batch P assemblies is 3.66 w/o U-235, a reduction of 0.04 w/o from Cycle 12.

Second, the fuel assembly zone loading technique is used to lower the radial power peak.

Ing facters within the 32 fresh shimmed Batch P assemblies.since shimmed fuel assom-blies at Fort Calhoun Station have in the past contained the maximum radial peaking factors. Each Batch P shimmed assembly contains 80 fuel rods with an initial enrichment of 3.95 w/o of U-235 and 88 fuel rods with an initial enrichment of 3.25 w/o of U-235. The locations of the zoned fuel rods and poison rods within the lattice of the Batch P shimmed assemblies are shown in Figure 3-2.

Due to the Fort Calhoun fuel assembly design, the fuel rods surrounding the five large water holes produce the highest power peaking factors within an assembly, The fuel rod zone loading technique lowers the initial enrichment of U-235 in those fuel rods while maintaining an assembly avera design core average exposure.ge initial enrichment sufficient to achieve the Cy The fuel rod and poison rod locations in Batches M and N shimmed assemblies are shown i

in Figure 3-3. Figure 3-4 shows the fuel rod locations in all unshimmed assemblies.

Figure 3-5 shows the beginning of Cycle 13 assembly burnup distribution for a Cycle 12 termination burnup of 11,000 MWD /MTU. The fuel average discharge exposure at the end  !

of Cycle 12 ls projected to be 40.090 MWD /MTU, The initial enrichment of the fuel assem-blies is also shown in Figure 3-5. Figure 3-6 shows the projected end of Cycle 13 assem-bly burnup distribution. The end of Cycle 13 core average exposure is approximately 29,205 MWD /MTU.

4.0 FUEL SYSTEMS DESIGN 4

The mechanical design for the Batch P fuelis the same as the Batch N fuel supplied by Combustion Engineering (CE) in Cycle 12.

The Batch P fuel is similar in design to the Batch G fuel supplied by Combustion Engineer-ing in Cycle 5 and is mechanically, thermally, and hydraulically compatible with the eight i Batch L Advanced Nuclear Fuel (ANF) supplied fuel assemblies remaining in the core.  !

Reference 4 describes the Batch M fuel characteristics and design. In addition, the Batch P fuel assembly design is essentially identical to the CE Batches M and N fuel which are '

also mechanically, thermally and hydraulically compatible with the ANF fuel which will reside in the Cycle 13 core. References 5 through 7 remain valid for describing the design of the ANF-supplied fuel. The maximum pin burnups of 50,000 MWD /MTU for Batch K fuel '

and 52,000 MWD /MTU for Batch L fuel (Reference 8) also remain valid.

j 5.1 PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS j 5.1.1 Fuel Manacament ,

The Cycle 13 fuel management uses a low-radial leakage design, with ,

twice and thrice burned assemblies predominantly loaded on the periphery i of the core. This low-radial leakage fuel loading pattern is utilized to minl.  ;

mize the flux to the pressure vessel wclds and achieve the maximum in neutron economy. Use of this type of fuel managemant to achieve reduced _

pressure vessel flux over a standard out-in-in pattern results in higher radial :

peaking factors. The maximum radial peaking factors for Cycle 13 have e

been reduced by lowering the enrichment of the fuel pins adjacent to the  !

assembly water holes as described in Section 3.0..

Also described in Section 3.0 is the Cycle 13 loading pattern which is com-posed of 40 fresh Batch P assemblies of which 32 are shimmed and split i enrichment assembtles designated P/ (with a high pin enrichment of 3.95 w/o and a low pin enrichment of 3.25 w/o) and 8 are unshimmed 3.95 w/o enriched assemblies. Eight thrice bumed L assemblies are being returned to the core, along with 41 twice burned M assemblies and 44 once burned N assemblies to produce a Cycle 13 loading pattern with a cycle energy of 14,250 1,000 MWD /MTU. The Cycle 13 core characteristics have been examined for a Cycle 12 termination between 10,000 MWD /MTU and 12,000 MWD /MTU and limiting values established for the safety analysis.

The Cycle 13 loading pattern is valid for any Cycle 12 endpoint between these values.

Physics characteristics including reactivity coefficients for Cycle 13 are listed in Table 5-1 along with the corresponding values from Cycle 12. It l should be noted that the values of parameters actually employed in safety l

analyses are different from those displayed in Table 5-1 and are typically chosen to conservatively bound predicted values with accommodation for -

approrlate uncertainties and allowances.

The BOC, HZP Main Steam Line Break accident is the most limiting acci-dent of those used in the determination of regulred shutdown margin for compliance with Technical Specifications. Table 5-2 presents a summary of CEA shutdown worths and reactivity allowances for the Cycle 13 BOC, HZP MSLB accident.- The Cycle 13 values, calculated for minimum scram worth, exceed the minimum value required by Technical Specifications and thus provide an adequate shutdown margin.

5.0 NUCl FAR DESIGN (Continued) 5.1 PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS (Continued) 5.1.2 Power Distribution Figures 5-1 through 5-3 illustrate the all rods out (ARO) planar radial power distributions at BOC13, MOC13, and EOC13, respectively, and are an aver.

age of the low and high burnup timepoints of the Cycle 12 shutdown win-dow, These radial power densities are assembly averages representative of the entire core length. The high bumup end of the Cycle 12 shutdown win.

dow tends to increase the power peaking in the high power assemblies in the Cycle 13 fuel loading pattern. The radial power distributions, with Bank 4 fully inserted at beginning and end of Cycle 13 are shown in Figures 5-4 '

and 5-5, respectively.

The radial power distributions described in this section are calculated data without uncertainties or other allowances. However, the single rod power peaking values do include the increased peaking that is characteristic of fuel rods adjoining the water holes in the fuel assembly lattice. For both DNB and kw/ft safety and setpoint analyses in either rodded or unrodded configu-rations, the power peaking values actually used are higher than those ex.

pected to occur at any time during Cycle 13. These conservative values, which are used in Section 7.0 of this document, establish the allowable limits for power peaking to be observed during operation; Figures 3-5 and 3-6 show the integrated assembly burnup values at 0 and 14,250 MWD /MTU, based on an EOC12 core average burnup of 11,000 MWD /MTU.

The range of allowable axial peaking is defined by the limiting conditions for operation and their axial shape index (ASI). Within these ASilimits, the neo-essary DNBR and kw/ft margins are maintained for a wide range of possible axial shapes. The maximum three-dimensional or total peaking factor (Fe) anticipated in Cycle 13 during normal base load, all rods out operation at full power is 1.82, not including uncertainty allowances.

5.1.3 Safety Related Data 5.1.3.1 Ejected CEA Data The maximum reactivity worth and planar power peaking factors  ;

associated with an ejected CEA event are shown in Table 5-3 for <

both the beginning and end of Cycle 13. These values encompass the worst conditions anticipated during Cycle 13 for an expected Cycle 12 termination point between 10,000 MWD /MTU and 12,000 MWD /MTU. The values shown for Cycle 13 are calculated in ac-cordance with Reference 3. In addition, Table 5-3 lists these values used from Cycle 12 for comparison.

6.1 DNBR ANALYSIS i l

Steady state DNBR analyses of Cycle 13 at the rated power of 1500 MWt have been performed using the TORC computer code described in Reference.1, the-  ;

CE-1 critical heat flux correlation described in Reference 2, and the CETOP-D computer code described in Reference 3 This combination was used in the Cycle 8 through 12 Fort Calhoun reload analyses (References 4 through 8) and the reload methodology can be found in Reference 9.

Table 6-1 contains a list of pertinent thormal-hydraulic parameters used in both safety analyses and for generating reactor protective system setpoint information.

The calculational factors (engineering heat flux factor, engineering factor on hot channel heat input, rod pitch and clad diameter factor) listed in Table 6-1 have -

been combined statistically with other uncertainty factors at the 95/95 confidence / t probability level (Reference 10) to define the design limit on CE-1 minimum DNBR,  ;

6.2 FUEL ROD BOWING The fuel rod bow penalty accounts for the adverse impact on MDNBR of random variations in spacing between fuel rods, The penalty at 45,000 MWD /MTU burnup is 0.5% in MDNBR. This penalty was applied to the MDNBR design-Ilmit of .1.18 (References 6 and 11) in the statistical combination of uncertaintles (Reference.

10),

7.0 TRANSIENT ANALYSIS This section presents the results of the Omaha Public Power District Fort Calhoun Station Unit 1, Cycle 13 Non-LOCA safety analyses at 1500 MWt. l The Design Bases Events (DBEs) considered in the safety analysis are listed in Table 7-1, .

These events were categorized in the following groups:

1. Anticipated Operational Occurrences (AOOs) for which the intervention of the Re-actor Protection System (RPS) is necessary to prevent exceeding acceptable lim-its.

2.. AOOs for which the initial steady state thermal margin, maintained by Limiting Con-ditions for Operation (LCO), are necessary to prevent exceeding acceptable lim-its.

3. Postulated Accidents.

Core parameters input to the safety analyses for evaluating approaches to DNB and cen-terline temperature to melt fuel design limits are presented in-Table 7-2. l As indicated in Table 7-1, no reanalysis was performed for the DBEs for which key tran -  ;

slent input parameters are within the bounds (i.e... conservative with respect to) of the l reference cycle values (Fort Calhoun Updated Safety Analysis Report including Cycle 12' analyses, Reference 1). For these DBEs the results and conclusions quoted in the refer - ,

ence cycle analy, sis remain valid for Cycle 13.- i For those analyses indicated as reviewed, calculations were performed in accordance- i with Reference 6 until a 10 CFR 50.59 determination could be made that Cycle 13 results .j would be bounded by Cycle 12 or the USAR reference cycle. 1 Events were evaluated for up to a total of 6% steam generator tube plugging in Cycle 11 where conservative. Fort Calhoun Station currently has 1.08% steam generator tubes i plugged; thus, no additional analysis is required. '

For the events reanalyzed. Table 7-3 shows the' reason for the reanalysis, the acceptance criterion to be used in judging the results and a summary of the results obtained. Detailed i presentations of the results of the reanalyses are provided in Sections 7.1 through 7.3. i A

7.1.1 Excess Load Event

.a The Excess Load event was reanalyzed for Cycle 13 to determine the pres-sure bias term for the TM/LP trip setpoint. .

The Excess Load event is one of the Design Basis Events analyzed to deter - (

mine the maximum pressure bias term input to the TM/LP trip. The method- >

ology used for Cycle 13 is described in References 6 and 7. The pressure bias term accounts for margin degradation attributable to measurement and ,

trip system processing delay times. Changes in core power, inlet tempera-ture and RCS pressure during the transient are monitored by the TM/LP trip directly. Consequently, with TM/LP trip setpoints and the bias term deterp .

mined in this analysis, adequate protection will be provided for the Excess  :

Load event to prevent the acceptable DNBR design limit from being exceedJ ed. Table.7.1.1-1 provides a sequence of events for the Excess Load  :

analysis. (

l The analysis of this event shows that a pressure bias term of 90 psia is -

l required compared to the 65 psia value utilized in Cycle 12. This is greater L than that input from the RCS Depressurization event, the other. event for

! which a pressure bias term is calculated. The pressure bias term from the l TM/LP Par equation will be~ increased to 90' psia and incorporated into:

Technical Specification Figure 1-3. The increase in the pressure bias term-more accurately accounts for the transient power decalibration value.,

7.2.1 CEA Withdrawal Event .

. The CEA Withdrawal (CEAW) event was reanalyzed for Cycle 13'to deter- a mine the inillal margins that must be maintained by the Limiting Conditions i

for Operations (LCOs) such that the DNBR and fuel _ centerline to melt l (CTM) design limits will not be exceeded in conjunction with the RPS (Varl.

able High Power, High Pressurizer Pressure, or Axlal Power Distribution Trips).

The methodology contained in Reference 6 was employed in analyzing the CEAW event. This event is classified as one for which the acceptable DNBR and CTM limits are not violated by virtue of maintenance of sufficient -

initial steady state thermal margin provided by the DNBR and Linear Heat Rate (LHR) related LCOs.

For the HFP CEAW DNBR analysis, an MTC Identical to that utilized in Refer- 'I ence 8 and the gap thermal conductivity consistent with the assumption of Reference 6 were used in conjunction with a variable reactivity insertion rate.

'~

The HFP case for Cycle 13 is considered to meet the 10 CFR 50.59 criteria since the results show that the required overpower margin is less than the available overpower margin required by the Technical Specifications for the 1 DNB and PLHGR LCOs. Since a negative _10 CFR 50.59 determination was made for Cycle 13, the conclusions for Cyclo 12 remain valid and applica-ble to Cycle 13. ,

The zero power case was analyzed to demonsirate that acceptable DNBR and centerline melt limits are.not exceeded. For the zero power case,'a reactor trip, Initiated by the Variable High Power Trip at 29.1% ( 19.1% plus 10% uncertainty of rated thermal power) was assumed in the analysis. .

The 10 CFR 50.59 criteria is satisfied for the HZP-event if the minimum DNBR is greater than that reported in the reference cycle.

The zero power case initiated at the limiting conditions of operation results +

in a a minimum CE-1 DNBR of 5.24 which is less than the Cycle 12 'value of 6.99, but still far in excess of the minimum -1.18 DNBR limit. The analysis shows that the fuel to centerline melt temperatures are well below those corresponding to the acceptable fuel to centerline melt limit. , The sequence of events for the zero power case is presented in Table 7.2.1-1. Figures 7.2.1-1 to 7.2.1-4 present the transient behavior of the core power, core -

average heat flux, RCS coolant temperatures and the RCS pressure for the .

zero power case.

The Loss of Coolant flow event was reviewed for Cycle 13 and it was deter - ,

mined that the event was bounded by the Cycle 12 analysis. The input parameters are listed for Cycles 12 and 13 for comparison In Table 7.2.2-1.

Thus, it was concluded that the Cycle 12 analysis Is bounding for Cycle 13 - I operation.

7.2 ANTICIPATED OPERATIONAL' OCCURRENCES (CATEGORY 2) (Continued) 7.2.3 Full Lenath CEA Dron Event The Full Length CEA Drop event was reanalyzed for Cycle 13 to determine the initial margins that must be maintained by the Limiting Conditions for_  ;

Operations (LCOs) such that the DNBR and fuel CTM design limits will not .

be exceeded.  !

This event was analy.ted parametr!cally in initial axial shape and rod config- i uration using the methods described in Reference 6. Table 7.2.3-1. lists the >

key input parameters used for Cycle 13 and compares them to the refer-  !

ence cycle (Cycle 11) values while Table.7.2.3-2 contains a sequence of events for the CEA Drop analysis. Figures 7.2.3_-1 to 7.2.3-4 present the transient behavior of the core power, core average heat flux, RCS coolant _  ;

temperatures and the RCS pressure for the limiting full power case.

The transient was conservatively analyzed at full power with an ASI of

-0.182, which is outside of the LCO limit of -0.06. This results in a minimum .

CE-1 DNBR of 1.36. A maximum allowable initiallinear heat generation rate of 15.18 KW/ft could exist as an initial condition without exceeding the ac.

4 ceptable fuel CTM limit of 22 KW/ft during this transient. This amount of margin is assured by setting the LHR related LCOs based on the more limiting allowable LOCA linear heat rate.

it can be concluded that the CEA Drop event, when initiated from the Tech-nical Specification LCOs will not exceed the DNBR CTM design limits.

i l 7.2.4 Boron Dilution Event The Boron Dilution event was reanalyzed for Cycle 13 to verify that sufficient time is available for an operator to identify the cause and to terminate an .[

approach to criticality for all subcritical modes of operation.

l Table 7.2.4-1 compares the values of tho' key transient parameters as-sumed in each mode of operation for Cycle 13 and the reference cycle, #

Cycle 11. Table 7.2.4-2 provides the results of the time to lose shutdown ,

margin calculations for Cycle 13 and Cycle 11. The Cycle 13 analysis utilized a mass basis in the calculations, rather than a volumetric basis to ensure that all operating temperature ranges for all modes of operation were bounded. -

P As noted in this table, the critical boron concentration for Cycle 13 is greater l

than the corresponding Cycle 12 values for all modes. Therefore, the time to lose critical shutdown margin will decrease from Cycle 11 results due to the inverse relationship between response time and critical boron concen-tration. A Technical Specification amendment was proposed in Reference 13 to increase the refueling boron concentration to 1900 ppm from the exist.

Ing 1800 ppm value to ensure that the minimum time to critical shutdown margin is maintained. -

7.0 TRANSIENT ANALYSIS (Continued) 7.3 POSTULATED ACCIDENTS 7.3,1 CEA Election

~

The CEA Ejection event was reviewed for Cycle 13. A summary containing the results of this analysis was submitted in Reference 11 for Cycle 11 and has been validated for use in Cycle 13, 7.3.2 Steam Line Break Accident This accident was reviewed for Cycle 13 using the methodology discussed in References 6 and 12. The Steam Line Break (SLB) accident was pre.

vlously analyzed in the Fort Calhoun FSAR and satisfactory results were reported therein. The SLB accidents at both HZP and HFP were examined in the re'erence cycle (Cycle 8) safety evaluation with acceptable results-

'obtained. Both the FSAR and reference cycle evaluations are reported in the 1989 update of the Fort Calhoun Station Unit No.1 USAR.

The Cycle 13 Full Power Steam Line Break accident was reviewed for a more negative MTC of -2.7 x 10" Ap/'F than the -2.5 x 10" Ap/'F value that was used in the Cycle 8 analysis. However, the cooldown curve for Cycle 13 is bounded by Cycle 8 (as shown in Figure 7.3.2-1). This figure -

shows that the reactivity insertion for the Cycle 13 core with an MTC of -2.7 x 10" Ap/'F due to a SLB accident at full power is substantially less than the value used in the Cycle 8 analys!s. (This smaller reactivity insertion is due to the use of,the DlT cross-sections which are valid for a range of moderator temperatures from room temperature to 600'K while the analy-ses prior to Cycle 9 were performed with cooldown curves derived by con-servatively extrapolating CEPAK cross-section - values to low temperatures.) The fuel temperature coefficient (FTC) used in the Cycle 8 analysis is conservative with respect to the fuel temperature coefficient cal-culated for the Cycle 12. core including uncertainties. The Cycle 13 mini-mum available shutdown worth at HFP is 6.83%Ap compared to a Cycle 8 value of 6.68%Ap. This implies a margin increase of 0.15%Ap. The Cycle 13 moderator cooldown reactivity between 574'F and 350'F at HFP is 4.68%Ap compared to 5.37 %Ap in Cycle 8. This implies a margin in-crease of 0.69 %Ap. The Cycle 13 doppler coefficient is more negative than the Cycle 8 doppler including uncertainties. However, this loss in mar.

gin is offset by the gain in margin from the scram worth and moderator cooldown reactivity. The net gain assures that the overall reactivity inser-tion for a Cycle 13 SLB is less than that of the reference cycle analysis.

Therefore, the return to power is less than that of the reference cycle and Cycle 1 FSAR analyses.

Page 55 of 64

7.0 TRANSIENT ANALYSIS (Continued) 7.3 POSTULATED ACCIDENTS (Continued) 7.3.2 Steam Line Break Accident (Continued) -

A similar evaluation was performed for the Hot Zero Power SLB accident.

Again, the Cycle 13 cooldown for an MTC of.-2.7 x 10%p/'F shows a substantially smaller reactivity insertion than was used in the Cycle 8 analy-sis (as seen in Figure 3.2.2-1). Since the minimum available shutdown margin for Cycle 13 remains unchanged from the reference cycle value (4.0%Ap), the overall reactivity insertion for the Cycle 13 SLB accident will be less severe than that reported for the reference cycle and the FSAR (Cycle 1) cases.

Based on the evaluation presented above, it is concluded that the conse-quences of a SLB accident initiated at either zero or full power are less severe than the reference cycle and FSAR (Cycle 1) cases.

Since a negative determination utilizing the 10 CFR 50.59 criteria was made for the Cycle 13 SLB accident, no reanalysis was performed. Thus, it was concluded that the reference cycle analysis is bounding for Cycle 13 opera-tion.

.i 7.3 POSTULATED ACCIDENTS (Continued) 7.3.3 Salzad Rotor Event .

The Seized Rotor event was reviewed for Cycle 13 to demonstrate that only  !'

a small fraction of fuel pins are predicted to fall during this event. C is bounded by the reference cycle (Cycle 9) analysis because ai of 1.85 was assumed in the Cycle 9 analysis and the Cycle 13 Technical Specifica-tion of 1,70 remains conservative with respect to the Fl value used in the Cycle 9 analysis.

Therefore, the total number of pins predicted to fall will continue to' be less <

than 1% of all of the fuel pins in the core. Based on this result, the resultant site boundary dose would be well within the limits of 10 CFR 100. '

Since a negative determination utilizing the 10 CFR 50.59 criteria was made for the Cycle 13 Seized Rotor event, no reanalysis was performed.

8.0 ECCS PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS i Both Cycle 11 Large and Small Break Loss of Coolant accident analyses were performed l

using the methodology discussed in Reference 1. A summary containing the results of the i analyses was submitted in Reference 2. The Cycle 11 revised ECCS analysis was verified  !

to be valid for use in Cycle 13 given the bounding input assumptions. The peak linear heat ~  !

generation rate of 15.2 KW/ft was conservatively reduced to 14.4 KW/ft to ensure the CE i fuel mechanical design requirements were valid for the entire Cycle 13 operation. The l ECCS analysis was verified for Cycle 13 wth the reduced peak linear heat generation rate  ;

and determined to be bounded.  !

Thus, the ECCS analysis was reviewed for Cycle 13 and found to be bounded by the .  !

Cycle 11 analysis. Since a negative determination using the 10 CFR 50.59 criteria was -

made for Cycle 13. the conclusions for Cycle 11 remain valid and applicable to Cycle 13.

9.0 STARTUP TESTING The startup testing program proposed for Cycle 13 is identical to that used in Cycle 12. It is also the same as the program outilned in the Cycle 6 Reload Application, with two exceptions. First, a CEA exchange technique (Reference 1) for zero power rod worth -

measurements will be performed in accordance with Reference 2. replacing the boration/

dilution method. Also, low power CECOR flux maps and pseudo-ejection rod measure-monts will be substituted for the full core symmetry checks.

The CEA exchange technique is a method for measuring rod worths which is both faster and produces less waste than the typical boration/dllution method. The startup testing method used in Cycles 11 and 12 employed the CEA exchange technique exclusively, Results from the CEA exchange technique were within the acceptance and review critoria for low power physics parameters. The combination of the pseudo-ejection technique at zero power and low power CECOR maps provides for a less time consuming but equally valid technique for detecting azimuthal power tilts during reload core physics testing. The pseudo-ejection rod measurement involves the dilution of a bank into the core, borating a CEA out, and then exchanging (rod swap) the CEA apsinst other symmetric CEA's within the bank to measure rod worths. The acceptance and review criteria for these tests are:

Insi Acceptance Criteria Review Criteria CEA Group Worths 15% of predicted- 15% of predicted -

Pseudo-ejection None ..The greater of: 2.5e rod worth deviation from group measurement average or 15% deviation from group average.

Low Power CECOR Technical Specifica- Azimuthal tilt less than maps tion limits of Fl. 20%.

Fiv, and T.

OPPD has reviewed these tests and has concluded that no unreviewed safety question exists for implementation of these procedures.
