The evaluation of a given transient begins with the system initial parameters shown in UFSAR Table 16.0.1 that are input to a SE-oore dynamie .

A tehavior transient computer program. The codes used to evaluate transients are described in SESTAt !!. The principal result of this evaluation:is the

The purpose of the K- factor of Figure 3.t.3 2 is to define operating J limits at other than rateI core flow conditions. At less then 2005 of '

rated flow the required MCPR is the product of the MCPR and the y factor. The K, factors assure that the Safety Limit MCPR will not be violated during a flow' l 1hcrosse transient resulting from a motor-generator speed control failure. The Kf factors may be applied to both annual and automatic flow control modes.

The K, factor values shown.in Figure 3.t.3 2 were developed generically 1 and are-apflicable to's11 SWR /2, BWR/3, and SWR /4 reactors. The K, factors- -

. were derived using the flow control line corresponding to RATED THERMAL POWER -

at rated core flow, although they are applicable for the extended opera *.ing _ ' q region. l
