M.3.1 SINGLE AUD MJf.TIPL7 RiLCTOR COOLT.UT FUMP TFIPS (LO3S-OF-CCCLANT YLCF) 15.3.1.1 l_dentification of Caus s and Frecuency Clattificatien The resc:or ccclant flowrate is reduced if cne er more of the reactor ecolant pumps fail.

A pumping failure can occur from mechanical fcilures or from a less of electric power.

With four independen pumps available, a nochaniecl failure in ene pump will not aff ect operation of the others.

Each reactor coclant pump receives electric power from one of two.

electrically separate buses, and one pump in each loop is cennected to each bus.

Faults in an individual pump motor or its power supply could cause a reducticn in ficw, but a complete loss of fcreed ficw, the mere cencervative chne, is extremely unlikely and would cccur only if all of feite power or both unit auniliary transformers were icst.

The less cf all.offsite power would cauce gravity insertion of control. reds independent of reactor trip frcm the plant protection system.

Even though this is an event of infrequent cecurrence, the nuclear unit can sustain such a failure without core damage.

f trips by the /eactor /rotection gystem. The reactor is tripped if insufficient reactor coolant flow exists for the power generated. Protection from the one pump coastdown event from four pump operation is provided by the flux / flow trip function. Protection from other pump coastdown situations are provided by the power / pump monitor trip. The Integrated Control System (ICS) initiates a power reduction upon pump failure to prevent reactor power from exceeding that pemissable for the available flow.

Even though ICS action is available to mitigate this accident, the accident analysis was performed without ICS action.

Analyses has been perfomed for the loss of power to all the RC pumps from initial four, three, and two pump operation. An analysis has also been performed of the loss of one RC pump from four and three pump operation. The sequence of events for the four, three, and two pump cases are shown in Table 15.3-1.

The sequence of events for the loss of one pump from four and three pump operation is shown in Table 15.3-4

' 15.3.1.3.2 Method of Analysis

,m I

The lese-of-ecolent-ficw cccident is analyted using a combination

\\. /

cf analog and digital computer programs.

The PUMPC1) analog simulaticn used to determine the reactor f1 curate following a loss of pumping pcwer includes descriptions cf fl.cw pressure drop relationships in the reactor ecolant loops.

Tump flow characteristics are determined frcm manufacturers' zone raps.

Flow speed, flow torque, and ficw head relaticnships are solved by pump affinity laws.

The power, inlet temperature, and system pressure are calculated Py a B6W digital ccde, CADD,(2) that includes a point kinetics nedel with a closed-lcop simulation.

The locp simulatien includes a pressurizer medel and a steam generator modsl, the whcle of which is ccnnected through time delays to the kinetics calculations.

The point kinetics medel used to determine the neutron pcwer during the coastdcwn and following reactor trip includes six delayed neutron groups, centrol rod worth and rod insertion characteristics, and trip delay times.

ESU hac developed the RADAR (3) digital ccmputer code to calculate fuel temperature, cladding temperature, and CNS ratio as a function of time fcr reactor system transients.

Input to the code censists of ficw, pcwer, inlet temperature, and system pressure as a f.uncticn of time. 'The core trancient analysis code sin.ulates the reacter core thrcu9h the use of a twc-channel l

J model.

Each channel consists of one fuel rod with its associated b

flew area and spacer grid gecmetry.

Given the necessary input as stated above, the ccde will calculate a prescure drop across a typical reactor channel (average channel) as a function of time.

This pressure drop is then imposed en the secend channel (usually a hot channel) to determine hot channel ficw and DNB ratio in addition to fuel and cladding temperatures.

Ccmpared to the average channel, the het channel has greater heat generation and reduced ficw areas, as well as statistical hot channel facters.

She analytical fuel pin acdel contains a transient response calculaticn, while the hydraulic mcdel considers the steady-state solutions of energy, mass, and momentum balances at each time step.

The transient res;cnse is cbtained by applying the changing ficw, power, inlet temperature, and system pressure to the initial conditiens of the average channel.

Tnis calculation yields the average channel pressure drcp as a function of time, alcng with the het channel pcuer, inist temperature, and cystem pressure.

51-1130767-00 Insert B 15.3.1.3.3 Results of Analysis The results of the analysis show that the loss of all four reactor coolant pumps can be sustained from 102'.' rated power without damage to the fuel.

The results of the evaluation are presented in Figures 15.3-1 through 15.3-4.

Reactor power and coolant ficw are shown in Figure 15:3-1 as a function of time after the loss of all pump power. Maximum local heat flux and minimum DNBR vs.

time are shown in Figure 15.3-2.

The minimum DNBR which occurs during coast-down from various initial power levels is shown in Figure 15.3-3.

The degree of core protection during coastdown is indicated by comparing the minimum DNBR for the coastdown with the criterion value of 1.3 indicating that margin exists for all power levels examined. RC system pressure and average moderator temperature as a function of time are shown in Figure 15.3-4.

The loss of power to all RC pumps has also been evaluated for three -pump and two pump initial operation condi tions. Minimum DNBR versus time is shown in Figure 15.3-8 for loss of. power to the RC pumps from three and two pump operation.

The minimum DNBRs are summarized in Table 15.3-2 for the loss of power to all pumps ftm four, three, and two pump operation, indicating loss of pour from four pump operation as the

(

most limiting with a minimum DNBR of 2.0.

The minimum DNBR is well above the 1.3 l

minimum DNBR criterion.

The pump coastdown transient has also been evaluated for the loss of one reactor coolant pumo from initial four and. three pump operation. The accident initial conditions are specified in Table 15.3-5.

The loss of one RC pump from four l

pump operation is the limiting transient with respect to DNB since this transient 1

forms the basis for the determination of the setpoint for the flux / flow trip i

function of the Reactor Protection System. A limiting flux / flow setpoint is determined based on the core DNB response to the one pump coastdown from four pump operation using the minimum acceptable RC flow coastdown.

This procedure l

51:1130767-00 !

Insert B (continued) assures an acceptable DNBR response with respect to the 1.3 criterion. The minimum DNBR versus flux / flow setpoint (5Md is shown in Figure 15.3-14.

. Sn3

. The flux / flow setpoint determined in this analysis is subscquently adjusted for flow and instrumentation errors. Minimum CNBR versus time is shown in e

Figure 15.3-15 for the one pump coastdown from four pump operation using a flux / flow setpoint of 1.1335 as the limiting value for Midland Cycle 1.

The loss of power to one RC pump from three pump operation has been evaluated from an initial power level of 77% of rated power hesulting in a 2/1 to 1/1 change in pump status.

Reactor trip is provided by the power / pump monitor trip function. Reactor power, RC flow, RC system pressure and inlet enthalpy are s

shown as a function of time in Figure 15.3-12. Minimum DNBR versus time is shown in Figure 15.3-13 indicating a minimum DNBR of 2.28 which is well above the criterion limit. A comparison of the minimum DNBRs for the loss of one RC pump from four and three pump operation is provided in Table 15.3-6.

,15.3.3.1 Identification of Canser and 'Frecuenev Claseification The reactor ecclant flowrate is reduced if' one er more of the reactor ecolt.nt pumps fail.

A pamping failure can occur from v.echanical failures er frem a 1:s3 of electrt.c power.

With four indepandent pumps available, a mechanical failure in one pump will not affect cperation of the others.

The loss of ficw due to rechanical malfunction from any cause has been considered and analysed ac the locksd retor accident.

This is c nonmochanistically porzulated design basis e' vent class'ified as a limiting fault; therefore, only one pump is assumed to be utfected.

The reactor is protected fr:n the consequences of ro ctor coolant pump f ailure (c) by the reactor prctection system.

The reactor is tripped if insufficient reactor coclant tiew exists fer the power level.

' ")

mc9tl with a closed-1 cop circlatien.

The locp 'simulacien includes a precturiter model and a steam gencrator nedel, the whole of which is ccnnected through time delays to tha kinetics calculaticns.

The point hinetics medel used to determine the n=utren pcwer during the coastdcwn and folicwing reacter trip includes six delayed neutren groups, control re,d worth and rod insertion characteristics, and trip delay times.

E~N has developed the RADAR (3) digital computer code to calculate fuel temperature, cladding temperature, and CNB ratio as a functica of time fer reacter system transients.

Input to the code consists of ficw, pcuer, inlet temperatur0, and system 1'

pressure as a function cf time.

The core transient analycia code cimulates the reacter core through the use of a two-channel model.

Each channel cenaists of one fuel rod with-its associated flow area and spacer grid gocmetry.

Given the t'ecessary input as stated above, the cede will calculate. a pressure drop across a typical reacter channel (average channel) as a function of time.

This press.ure drop is then imposed cn the seccad channel (usually a hot channel) to determine hot channel ficw and DUB ratio, in addition to fuel and cladding temperatures.

ccmpared to the average channel, the hot channel has greater heat generation and reduced flew areas, as well as statistical het channal factors.

The analytical fuel pin model centains a transient response calculation, while the hydraulic model considers the steady-state solutions of energy, mass, and momentum balances at each time step.

The tranrient respense is chtained by applying the changing ficw, pcwer, inlet temperature, and system pressure tc the initial conditions of the averago channel.

This calculation yicida the average channel pressure drt; as a function cf time, alcng with the hot channel power, inlet temperature, and system pressure.

From these results, the response of the hot channel in terms of cladding temperature, fuel temperature, and CNB ratio is calculated as a function of time.

The locked retor accident is a rapid decrease in flow resulting frem the instantanscus seizure of a reactor coolant pump retor.

The '.nitial operating conditions are as given in Table 15.5-7 The neutron pouer rises slightly but quickly drops after rod insertion due to a power /ivbalance/ficw reactor trip.
