CHANGE REQUEST DATED TEBRUARY 28, 1974 PROPOSED Cl!ANGES TO Tilt TECHNICAL SPECIFICA'10NS APPENDIX A 0F PROVISIONAL OPERATING LICENSE NO. DPR-22 Pursuert to 10CTR50.59, the holders of the above-mentioned license hereby propose the followng changes to Appendix A, Technical Specifications.
1.
PRO'3 SED CHANGE on page 108A, TS 3.5.J. change "...of 11.5 kw/f t." to read
"...shown in Figure 3.5.1."
REASON FOR CRANGE Feference 1 provides guidance on calculations 1 methods approved by the ALC Staf f for determining the effects of fuel densification.
Reference 2 discussed the applica' ion of these methods.
In applying these methods, the constant value for }%PLHGR becomes exposure-dependent as shown in rigure 3.5.1.
2.
PROPOSED CHANGE On page 108B. TS 3.5,.R. expand the lines:
"LHCRd = Design LHCR = 17.5 kw/f t (A P/P) max = Maximum power spiking penalty = 0.036" to read as follows:
"LHGRd= Design LHCR
= 17.5 kw/ft for 7x7 fuel 13.4 kw/ft for 8x8 fuel
=
(ZhP/P) mar = Maximum power spiking penalty
= 0.033 for 7x7 fuel
= 0.024 for 8x8 fue
_ REASON FOR CRANCT This change expands the Specification to include the design LHGR of 8x8 fuel as discussed in Reference 3.
The calculated power spike pt Telty for 8x8 fuel is discussed in Reference 4 and the recalculated penalty for 7x7 fuel is discussed in Reference 5.
Thece references show the power spike penalty as.a function of length for various pellet densities.
The following is a tabulation of data pertinent to tbnticello fuel types:
i EX511 BIT A 2
Fuel Type
% of T.D (th P/P) max Initial Core (7x7) 95.04 0.033 j
Reload-1 (7x7) 94.94 0.033 Reload-2 (8x8) 95.44 0.024 t
3.
PROPOSED CHANGT Insert a new page, 108C. designated Figure 3.5.1.
REARON FOR CHANCE This figure is the result of the recalculation described in Item 1, above.
The cerves are a composite of two limiting conditions; LUGR for low exposures and peak cladding temperature during LOCA for higher exposures.
Figures A-1 through A-3 of this exhibit are included to provide i.
additional information in this rugard.
The alpha curve shows the MAPLHCR based on design LHGR limitations only.
The omega curve is the composite i
limitation; it becomes more restrictive than the alpha curve when the i
i calculated LOCA peak cladding temperature reaches the current limit of 23003r.
{
4.
_1cPOSED ClW:Cr<
i, On page 113A. TS Bases 3.5.J, replace the third paragraph with i
the words, "The maximum average planar LHGR curves shown in l
Tirure 3.5.1 were calculated for the various Monticello fuel i
types in the manner discussed in Section 4.3 of General Electric l
topical report, 'DEGAP-III:
A Model for the Prediction of Pellet-l Cladding Thermal Cotiduc tance in HWR Fuel Rods" NEDO-20181, I
Revision 1, November 1973., These curves show the composite i
limitation based on the design LHGR of the fuel and the peak cladding temperature in the event of a LOCA.
Calculations are based on the AEC " Modified CE Fbdel for Fuel Densification" 4
attached to a December 5,1973 letter from D J Skovholt (USAEC) to L 0 Fbyer (NSP). "
i On page 113A, TS Bases 3.5.J. fourth paragraph, ninth line, replace the words "...on the order of only..." with "... less l
than..."
On page 113A, TS Bases 3.5.J. last line, change the words
" Changes in gap size... " to " Changes in radial gap size... "
On page 113B, TS Bases 3.5.J. replace the last three sentences of the first paragraph with the words, "As' discussed in NEDO-20181, that the pellet densified from its measured value to 96.5% of theoretical density."
