Core Power Distribution Symmetrv Analysis l

Purcose I

The purpose of this test was to determine the magnitude of indicated l

core power distribution asymmetries using data (TIP traces and OD-1) collected in conjunction with the CMC update.

Criteria l

A.

The total TIP uncertainty (including random noise and geometric uncertainties obtained by averaging the uncertainties for:all data ~

sets) must be less than 9%.

l I

B.

The gross check of TIP signal symmetry should yield a maximum deviation between symmetrically located pairs of less than 25%.

Results and Discussion j

Core power symmetry calculations were carried out based upon computer program OD-1 data run on August 19. 1993 and again on October 9. 1993.

The average total TIP uncertainty from the two symmetry calculations was 2.985%.

The random noise uncertainty was 1.427%. This yields a geometrical uncertainty of 2.621%. The total TIP uncertainty was well within the 9% limit.

The above results were performed without using LPRM strings 5 and 33.

String 5 is a Hydrogen Water Chemistry (HWC) probe in which the "D" level LPRM detector has been replaced by HWC detectors. A safety evaluation (93-27) was performed for this change and no unreviewed i

safety questions were indicated.

The effect on the 0D-79 program will i

3 be that 1 symmetric pair of LPRMs will be unavailable for the core symmetry calculation, namely pairs 48-09 and 08-49 (strings 5 and 33.

l respectively). These are peripheral strings and will have the effect of -

i decreasing the core symmetry calculation' total uncertainty.

This effect occurs because the power magnitude on the periphery is smaller than the a

power magnitude in the center of the core. Thus. a' differential change hetween the peripheral pair power levels will result in a greater percent uncertainty than a differential change in the power level of center core symmetric pairs.

Data was taken in order to support this l

from a Unit 2 tip set done in December 1992 with only 39 strings run.

With no other failures present, the core symmetry calculation will meet i

its acceptability requirements.

Table 1 lists the symmetrical TIP pairs and their respective deviations.

Figure 2 shows the core location of the TIP pairs and their TIP readings.

The maximum deviation between symmetrically located TIP pairs

)

occurred during the October 9.1993 run and was 9.611% for pair 9-20.

This is well within the 25% limit.

i The method used to obtain the uncertainties consisted of calculating the average of the nodal ratio of TIP pairs by:

I I

Rij

_R = 18n j=1 i=5 where Rij is the ratio for the ith node $f TIP pair j. there being n j

such pairs, where n=18.

% a, - o, x 100 The total TIP uncertainty is calculated by dividing % o by V 2 in order n

to account for data being taken at 3 inch intervals and analyzed on a 6 l

inch nodal basis.

In orde-to calculate random noise uncertainty the average reading at' i

each node for nodes 5 through 22 is calculated by:

1 MT NT I

I BASE (N. M. K) l BASE (K) - NT x MT M=1 N=1 where NT = number of runs per machine = 5 MT = number of machines - 5 BASE (K) = average reading at nodal level K.

j K = 5 through 22 1

Not used due to Hydrogen Water Chemistry Probe in-core location 48-09 (string 5).

The "D" level detector does not exist, so the TIP could not be run in index.

Thus OD-79 core symmetry could not be calculated.
