fI Es sw g l g Page 19 REA'CTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES The ACTION statement permitting POWER OPERATION to continue for limited time periods with the primary coolant's specific activity > 1.0 pCi/ gram DOSE EQUIVAIINT I-131, but within the allowable limit shown on Figure 3.4-1, accommodates possible iodine spiking phenomenon which may occur following changes in THERMAL POWER. Operation during one continuous time interval with specific activity levels exceeding 1.0 pci/ gram DOSE EQUIVALENT I-131 but within the limits shown on Figure 3.4-1 must be restricted to no more than 48 hours5.555556e-4 days 0.0133 hours 7.936508e-5 weeks 1.8264e-5 months since the activity levels allowed by Figure 3.4-1 increase the 2 hour2.314815e-5 days 5.555556e-4 hours 3.306878e-6 weeks 7.61e-7 months thyroid dose at the site boundary by a factor of up to 20 following a postulated steam generator tube rupture.

Reducing T to < 530*F prevents the release of activity should a steam generator fu6e rupture since the saturation pressure of the primary coolant is below the lift pressure of the atmospheric steam relief valves.

The surveillance requirements provide adequate assurance that excessiye specific activity levels in the primary coolant will be detected in suf-ficient time to take corrective action. Information obtained on iodine spiking will be used to assess the parameters associated with spiking phenomena.

3/4.4.9 PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE LIMITS The pressure-temperature limits of the reactor coolant pressure boundary are established in accordance with t,he requirements of Appendix G to 10 CFR 50 and with the thermal and loading cycles used for design purposes.

The limitations prevent non-ductile failure during normal operation, including anticipated operational occurrences and system hydrostatic tests. The limits also prevent exceeding stress limits during cyclic operation. The loading conditions of interest include:

1. Normal operations, including heatup and cooldown,

2. Inservice leak and hydrostatic tests, and l

3. Reactor core operation.

l The major components of the reactor coolant pressure boundary have been analyzed in accordance with Appendix G to 10 CFR 50. The closure head region, reactor vessel outlet nozzles and the beltline region have been identified to be the only regions of the reactor vessel, and consequently

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM BASES The closure head region is significantly stressed at relatively low temperatures (due to mechanical loads resulting from bolt pre-load). This region largely controls the pressure-temperature limitations of the first several service periods. The outlet nozzles of the reactor vessel also affect the pressure-tem)erature limit curves of the first several service periods.

This is due to t1e high local stresses at thu side corner of the nozzle which can be two to three times the membrane stresses of the shell. After the first several years of neutron radiation exposure, the RTum temperature of the beltline region materials will be high enough so that the beltline region of the reactor vessel will start to control the pressure-temperature limitations l of the reactor coolant pressure boundary. For the service period for which I

the limit curves, are established, the maximum allowable pressure as a function of fluid temperature is obtained through a point-by-point com]arison of the limits imposed by the closure head region, outlet nozzles, and )eltline region. The maximum allowable the three calculated pressures. pressure is taken The pressure limittoisbeadjusted the lower forpressure the of pressure differential between the point of system pressure measurement and the limiting component for all operating reactor coolant pump combinations. The limit curves were prepared based upon the most limiting adjusted reference temperature of all the beltline region materials at the end of the tenth twentysone ef fective full power years.

The actual shift in RTum of the beltline region material will be established periodically during operation by removing and evaluating, in accordance with Appendix H to 10 CFR 50, re6ctor vessel material irradiation surveillance specimens installed near the inside wall of the reactor vessel in the core area. Since the neutron spectra at the irradiation samples and vessel inside the radius are essentially identical, the measured transition shift for a sample can be applied with confidence to the adjacent section of the reactor vessel. The limit curves must be recalculated when the ART determined from the surveillance capsule is different from the calculated $km for the equivalent capsule radiation exposure.

REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM l BASES The unirradiated transverse impact properties of the beltline region materials, required by A)pendices G and H to 10 CFR 50 were determined for those materials for whic1 sufficient amounts of material were available. The adjusted reference temperatures are calculated by adding the predicted !

radiation-induced ARTc and the unirradiated RTe1 The procedures described in Regulatory Guide 1.69. Rev. 2 were used for predicting the radiation induced ART e r as a function of the material's copper and nickel content and neutron fluence. ,

I Figure 3.4-2 presents the pressure-temperature limit curve for normal heatup. i This figure also 3 resents the core criticality limits as required by Appendix G to 10 CFR 50. rigure 3.4-3 presents the pressure-temperature limit curve for normal cooldown. Figure 3.4-4 presents the 3ressure-temperature limit curves for heatup and cooldown for inservice leac and hydrostatic testing.

i All pressure-temperature limit curve are applicable up to the tenth tWentyj, one effective full power years. The protection against non-ductile failure is assured by maintaining the codlant pressure below the upper limits of Figures 3.4-2. 3.4-3 and 3.4-4.

frequencies for removing and testing these specimens are provided in BAW 1543A. The withdrawal schedule is based on four considerations: l (a) uncover possible technical anomalies as early in life as they can be detected (end of first fuel cycle), (b) define the material properties needed to perform the analysis required by Appendix G to 10 CFR 50, (c) reserve two capsules for evaluation of the effectiveness of themal annealing in the event inplace annealing becomes necessary, (d) provide material property data corresponding to the reactor vessel beltline conditions at the end of service. This withdrawal schedule is specified to assure compliance with the requirements of Appendix H to 10 CFR 50.
