1 ANNUAL OPERATING REPORT FOR 1980 AS REQUIRED BY THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE WESTINGHOUSE NUCLEAR TRAINING REACTOR ,

l i FACILITY LICENSE NO. R-119 DOCKET NO. 50-87

1. NARRATIVE

SUMMARY

i Tne Westinghouse Nuclear Training Reactor (NTR) was operated in a routine manner during 1980. Operations included training for customers and for licensed operator trainees. Requirea procedures were routinely performed for surveillance testing.

Seven irradiations were performed, all of them gold or indium foils used for training or for power calibration surveillance testing.

i No chantes were naae in the aesign of the facility related to reactor afety.

J During the year the ?nysical Security Plan for the Westinghouse Nuclear Training Reactte was revised and-submitted to the Nuclear Regulatory Commissic9 for approval. The security plan was revised to reflect the interim " upgrade rules" for the physical security of Special. Nuclear Material.

2. E,NERGY GEhERATED AND HOURS OPERATIONAL The reactor generated 50.9 kilowatt hours of energy and was operational for 1,989.1 hours1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br />.

3. INADVERTENT REACTOR TRIPS There were 165 inadvertent reactor trips during the year. Of these, 156 were due to trainee errors and 9 were due to equipment malfunctions. The number of inaovertent trips is directly proportional to'the number of customer trainees who operate this training reactor.
4.

SUMMARY

OF FACILITY CHANGE 5 No tests or experiements were conductea unoer the conditions of 10CFR50.59.

5. RADI0 ACTIVE EFFLUENTS No releases of radioactive effluents beyond the control of the licensee were made during 1980.
6. MAINTEhANCE During the operational year, no major maintenance. was performed.. The performed maintenance was both scheduled and unscheduled, and routine in nature. It consisted of renoving, replacing or repairing worn and/or failed system components- In no case were tne safety system functions for the' reactor impaired or jeopardized. The maintenance is-summarized as follows:

a) ' Replaced the nign voltage' power supply for the source; range nuclear instrumentation due to faulty output voltage indications.

b) Replaceo a failed control roc' drive motor and gear box.

c) Replaced a faulty signal lead between the amplifier and a neutron level detector-d) ' Removed and replaced a faulty diaphram in one of the moderator fill: valves.
