Amendment No. 57, M, 75 18a ARKANSAS - UNIT 1 r

RASES All reactor coolant system components are designed to withstand the effects of cyclic loads due to system temperaturo and pressure changes.(') These cyclic loads are introduced by unit load transients, reactor trips, and unit heatup and cooldown operations. The number of thermal and loading cycles used for design purposes are shown in Table 4-8 of the FSAR.

The maximum unit heatup and cooldown rates satisfy stress limits for cyclic operation.(8) The 200 psig pressure limit for the secondary side of the steam generator at a temperature less than 100F satisfies stress levels for temperatures below the DTT.(*)

The major components of the reactor coolant prosaure boundary have been analyzed in accordance with Appendix G to 10CFR50.

Results of this analysis, including the actual pressure-temperature limitations of the reactor coolant pressure boundary, are given in BAW-2106(6).

The limiting wold material is being irradiated as part of the B6W Owners Group Integrated Reactor Vessel Material Surveillance Program and the identification and locations of the capsules containing the limiting wold material is discussed in the latest revision to B&W report, BAW-1543. (s) The chemical composition of the limiting weld material in reported in the B&W Report, BAW-1511p.(') The offect of neutron irradiation on the RT f the limiting weld material is reported in the B&W Report., BAW 2075(iT Figures 3.1.2-1, 3.1.2-2, and 3.1.2., present the pressuro-temperature limit curves for hydrostatic test, normal heatup, and normal cooldown respectively.

The limit curves are applicable through the fifteenth effectivo full power year of operation. The pressure limit is adjusted for the pressure differential between the point. of system pressure measurement and the If miting component for all operating reactor coolant pump combinations.

The pressure-temperature limit lines shown on Figure 3.1.2-2 for reactor critienlity and on Figure 3.1.2-1 for hydrostatic testing have been provided to assure compliance with the minimum temperature requirements of Appendix G to 10CFR50 for reactor criticality and for inservice hydrostatic testing.

The actual shif t. In RT of the bolt 11no region material will be established periodically during op Ntion by removing and evaluating, in accordance with Appendix 11 to 10CFR50, reactor vossol material irradiation surveillance specimens which are installed near the inside wall of this or a similar reactor vessel in the core region.

The spray temperature difference restriction based on a stress analysis of the spray lino nozzlo is imposed to maintain the thermal stresses at the pressurizer spray line nozzle below the design limit. Temperature requirements for the stons generator correspond with the measured NDTT for the shell.

Amendment No. 22, /f, H M 19

The heatup and cooldown rates stated in this specification are intended as the maximum changes in temperature in one direction in a one hour period. The actual temperature linear ramp rate may exceed the stated limits for a time period provided that the maximum total temperature difference does not exceed the limit and that a temperature hold is observed to prevent the total temperature dif ference from exceeding the limit for the one hour period.

Specification 3.1.2.9 is to ensure that the core flood tanks are not the source for pressurizing the reactor coolant nystem when in cold shutdown.

Specification 3.1.2.10 is to ensure that high pressure injection is not the source of pressurizing the reactor co31 ant system when in cold shutdown.

Specification 3.1.2.11 is to ensure that the reactor coolant system is not operated in a manner which would allow overpressurization due to a temperature transient.
