LGS UFSAR 3.7.3.14 Seismic Analysis for Reactor Internals (NSSS)

The modeling of RPV internals is discussed in Section 3.7.2.3.1.2.

The damping values are given in Table 3.7-1, 3.7.3.15 Analysis Procedures for Dampinct 3.7.3.15.1 Analysis Procedures for Damping (NSSS)

Analysis procedures for damping are discussed in Section 3.7.2.15.1.

3.7.3.15.2 Analysis Procedure for Damping (Non-NSSS)

If the equipment damping is unknown, the response spectrum curve  :

for 0.5% damping is used to arrive at a conservative seismic loading. The damping values used for the OBE are increased for the SSE, where sufficient justification is established.

INSERT A Triaxial peak recording accelerographs are not supplied as discrete instruments. The purpose of these accelerographs is to give an indication of seismic accelerations experienced by the plant in the event of power failure in the recording system. The availability of uninterruptible power ,

supplies (UPS), the limited information available from the peak accelerographs and the difficulty of retrieving data from the peak accelerog~aphs (two were located in the primary containment) made the peak accelerographs unnecessary. The system with UPS will perform the same  ;

functions as the triaxial peak recording accelerographs.

J f

INSERT B A self contained T/A sensor recording system is located in the Spray Pond Pumphouse. This T/A '

is not connected to the Control Room equipment. A separate portable computer is available to '

retrieve recorded data and transport to the Control Room. A single playback unit is located in the Control Room for playback of any of the recorder data. <

instrumentation is considered operable when it is capable of performing its specified functions  ;

functions.

channels measuring the same parameter.

      • channel functional test - shall be:

a) analog channels - the injection of a simulated signal into the channel as close to the sensor as practical to verify operability including alarm and/or trip functions and channel l failure trips.

b) bistable channels - the injection of a simulated signal into the sensor to verify operability including alarm and/or trip functions. .

k The channel functional test may be performed by any series of sequential, overlapping or total  !

channel steps such that the entire channel is tested.
