APPENDIX B CONFIRMATION OF SINGLE LOOP OPERATION The previous Single Loop Operation analysis performed for Brunswick 2 (Reference B-1) has been verified to be applicable for Cycle 5.

Y1003J01A37 Rev. O APPENDIX C SAFETY ANALYSIS RESULTS FOR 7x7 FUEL There is a possibility that 7x7 fuel may be used by Brunswick 2 during

. Cycle 5. Transient analysis results for 7x7 fuel are presented in Table C-1 to provide for such an occurrence. Should 7x7 fuel be loaded into the core, the procedures outlined in Reference C-1 will be followed to assure that the final core loading pattern is an acceptable deviation from the reference core loading pattern presented in item 3 of this submittal. A comparison of the data for 7x7 fuel with the data presented in items 9 and 11 for the other fuel types shows that 7x7 fuel, if loaded, will have no effect on Cycle 5 operating limits.

3. LOCAL ROD WITHDRAWAL ERROR If 7x7 fuel is used, it will be located on or near the periphery of the core, far enough away from the error rod that the Rod Withdrawal Error will have no impact.
4. OPERATING CYCLE MCPR VALUES Nonpressurization Events:

MCPR Transient Exposure (7x7)

Loss of Feedwater Heating EOC 5 1.18 Fuel Loading Error EOC 5 N/A Rod Withdrawal Error EOC 5 N/A Minimum Required by LOCA 1.20* ,

  • For 7x7 fuel, the flow factor, Kg, is based on the 112% flow curve line ,

rather than the 102.5% line, a conservatism that makes the requirement that the operating limit MCPR be greater than 1.23 not applicable in this case.
