  • ENCLOSURE RESPONSE TO D. B. VASSALLO'S LETTER TO H. G. PARRIS DATED JULY 8, 1982 NUREG-0737, ITEM II.K.3 24 BROWNS FERRY NUCLEAR PLANT UNITS 1, 2, AND 3

(

Reference:

TVA letter from L. M. Mills to H. R. Denton dated December 30, 1981)

The following is additional information regarding NUREG-0737, Item II.K.3.24 for Browns. Ferry to that'provided.by the referenced letter.

Additional calculations have been performed to verify TVA's position on adequacy of HPCI space cooling during a loss of offsite power event.

The analysis performed was a time-dependent dynamic heat balance of the HPCI pump room with the following assumptions.

1.

Initial HPCI pump room temperature of 80CF, consistent with the Browns Ferry harsh environment analysis, 2.

Normal SGTS operation but no normal reactor building ventilation system operation, 3

No RHR pump operation or RHR pump room cooler operation. The coolers are designed to remove somewhat more heat than the RHR pumps produce, 4.

All walls act as vertical passive heat sinks.

With additional conservatisms included, the space temperature at the end of two hours was calculated to be approximately 1140F, well below the environmental qualification temperature of the equipment.
