Bases I

The Main Feedwater Systen and the Turbine Bypass System are normally used for decay heat removal and cooldown above 250 F.

Feedwater makeup is supplied by operation of a hotwell pump, condensate booster pump, and a main feedwater pump.

Operability of the Emergency Feedwater System (EFW) assures the capability to remove decay heat and cool down the Reactor Coolant System to the operating conditions for switch over to decay heat removal by the Decay' Heat Removal System, in the event that the Main Feedwater System is inoperable. The EFW system consists of a turbine driven pump (880 gpm), two motor driven puu7s (450 gpm each), and associated flow paths to the steam generators.

Thedecayheatandthereactorcoolantpumgheat following a reactor trip from 102" power, and the EFW flow rate (90 F feedwater) required to remove this heat demand are as follows:

Heat Demand EFW Flowrate Time

(% of 2568 MWT)

(gpm) l 1 min 4.65 721 2 min 4.17 647 5 min 3.64 564 10 min 3.28 509 30 min 2.70 419 1 hour1.157407e-5 days <br />2.777778e-4 hours <br />1.653439e-6 weeks <br />3.805e-7 months <br /> 2.35 365 2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> 2.07 322 1

The limiting transient requiring maximum EFW flow is the loss of main feedwater l

with offsite power available. For this transient, a minimum EFW flow rate equivalent to 405 gpm at 1065 psia is adequate. Each of the three EFW pumps is capable of delivering this flow.

A 100% flowpath is defined as: The flowpath to either steam generator including associated valves and piping capable of being supplied by either the turbine driven pump or the associated motor driven pump.

One flow indicator or steam generator level indicator per steam generator is i

sufficient to provide indication of energency feedwater flow to the steam generators and to confirm emergency feedwater system operation. In the event that at least one indicator per steam generator is not available, then the flovpath to this steam generator is considered to be inoperable.

The EFW System is designed to start automatically in the event of loss of both main feedwater pumps or low main feedwater header pressure. All automatic initiation logic and control tunctions are independent from the Integrated Control System (ICS).

Normally, decay heat is removed by steam relief through the turbine bypass system to the condenser. Condenser cooling water flow is provided by a siphon effect from Lake Keowee through the condense.r for final heat rejection to the Keovee Hydro Plant tailrace.

This is based on the conservative estimate of nonnal makeup being 0.5% of throttle flow. Throttle flow at full load, 11,200,000 lbs/hr., was used to calculate the operation time. For decay heat removal the operation time with the volume of water specified would be considerably increased due to the reduced throttle flow.

Decay heat can also be removed from the steam generators by steam relief through the main steam safety relief valves. The total relief capacity of the 16 main steam safety relief valves is 13.105,000 lbs/hr. In this case the minimian amount of water in the upper surge tank, condensate storage tank, and hotwell is sufficient to remove decay heat and reactor coolant pump heat for 3 hours3.472222e-5 days <br />8.333333e-4 hours <br />4.960317e-6 weeks <br />1.1415e-6 months <br /> per unit at hot shutdown conditions.
