ABSTRACT ThisamendmenttoCEN-157(A)-P,-NP, amendment 2,isanexpansionofthe previously supplied answers to questions 492.15 and 492.16. The first provides the reason for a change in the numerical value of the power uncertainty factor E from that reported in CEN-143(A)-P, -NP to that cited in recent discussions between the NRC staff and C-E.

The second provides a discussion of the method of combining uncertainties to generate the CPC parameter BERRl.

.n INTRODUCTION The procedure for incorporating the power uncertainty inte the online protection system for the second cycle of Arkansas Nuclear One Unit 2 has been discussed by C-E and the NRC staff in both formal and informal sessions. Some of the informal oral discussions resulted in identifying a difference between the value of the power uncertainty factor E reported in CEN-143(A)-P, -NP (Reference 1) and that included in the online protection system.

In this amendment to CEN-157(A)-P, -NP, (Reference 2) the expansion of the answer to question 492.15 provides the reason for this change. Other oral discussions asked for more detailed explanations of the method for incorporating uncertainties into BERRl. The expansion of the answer to question 492.16 provides the required information. The materials described here are supplements to the answers provided in Reference 2, not replacements for them.

Supplement to Response to NRC Question 492.15 Question 492.15 How is the value of power uncertainty factor of[

^]obtained for DNBR calculation?

Supplement to Response The value of the algorithm uncertainty factor (E) in CEN-143(A)-P has been changed.

The new value which is installed in the CPC software is[

[j.

The value of[

]is the 95/95 one sided tolerance factor determined from the distribution of the ratio of CETOP-2 to CETOP-D overpower margins (see Figure S-1).

The change in the E value is due to the following reason:

The CETOP2 code is written to use the hot channel peaking factor (hot channel pceer/ core average power) as input.

In the original analysis this input was used and the CETOP2 vs. CETOP-0 analysis yielded

'of the CPC module interfaces [it w'as discovered that the CPC power a 95/95 tolerance factor of l

During a quality assurance review algorithm calculates a[

jpeaking factor, rather than the {

]

4 peaking factor, for use in the static DNBR calculation. The [

] peaking factor is[

lthanthe[

]peakingfactor.

This input discrepancy was discovered late in the software design process and thet efore an algorithm change to (orrect the discrepancy was not feasible.

Instead, the uncer_tainty arsessment was repeated for CETOP2 with the input changed to Jtobe consistent with the input to the on-line algorithm.

The result of the new analysis was that the error distribution shifted by almost

This is the final value included in the CPC software data base previously

- report as [

This factor accounts for the difference between CETOP2 and CETOP-D.

Since this difference has already been accounted for both in the simulation of DNB modelling uncertainty (Pl) and the CPC software (Reference 3, equations 4.4-13 and 14),

this factor must be. included to eliminate double accounting.
