i AUACHMENLA Evaluation of Residual Reused Channels on Thermal Margins for LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 BACKGRCWD Commonwealth Edison's (CECO) response to NRC Bulletin 90-02 for its Bolling Water Reactors (BHR) was presented in Reference 1.

In Reference 1 Ceco Indicated that although CECO no longer places irradiated fuel channels on fresh fuel assemblies, previous channel management practices included the reuse of channels. As a result, channels from the-LaSalle County Station initial core discharge batch were placed on approximately half of the fresh-fuel assemblies that were loaded in _LaSalle 2 Cycle 2 and LaSalle 2 Cycle 3 (Reference 1).

These channels had received a single cycle of irradiation, yielding channel exposures from 4 to 14 GHD/HTV, prior to their placement on the LaSalle 2 Cycle 2 and LaSalle 2 Cycle 3 reload fuel. Assemblies from these two reloads continue to be resident in the projected LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 loading.

Channel bow is primartly caused by differential neutron flux across the fuel lattice. C-lattice plants, such as LaSalle County Station, have uniform water gaps around the assemblies and hence experience less channel how as a function of exposure relative to comparable D-lattice plants.

This leads to a smaller impact on local peaking, Minimum Critical Power Ratio (HCPR) and Linear Heat Generation Rate (LHGR) margins as a result-of channel bow for C-lattice plants.

PROJECTED LASALLE 2 CYCLE _5 CHANNEL CONFIGURAT10H The projected-LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 core configuration is shown in Figure 1.

- Figure I shows-the location of the reused channels, the end of Cycle 5 projected channel exposure, and-the end of Cycle 5 projected fuel assembly exposure.

The assemblies with reused channels are listed in Table 1 in order of J.

decreasing end of. Cycle 5 channel exposure.

The Cycle 5 exposure projections shown in Figure 1 and Table 1 are based on L

l.

nominal projected LaSalle 2 Cycle 4 and LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 exposures.

LaSalle 2 l

Cycle 4 has been operating at a higher capacity factor than was assumed in the cal.culation of the nominal Cycle 4 exposure; therefore,-the end of Cycle 5 7

exposure may be111ghtly greater than that shown in figure 1.

This exposure l

Increment (estimated to be approximately 0.7 GHD/HTU) will have a negligible impact on the' discussion herein.

As shown in-Figure 1, the fuel assemblies with reused channels are loaded primarily on the core periphery.

Edison nuclear design engineers deliberately chose this strategy to minimize the number of residual reused channels in l~

limiting, high-power locations while maintaining core symmetry.

As a result, l

149 assemblies which had received reused channels when they were originally

-loaded will remain in LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 and eighteen (18) channels will be L

replaced.

The locations of the-rechanneled assemblies are depicted "New l

Channel" in the Figure I core map.

ZNLD/1175/3

AUACEMEHLAtontinuedl The maximum projected channel exposure at the end of dycle 5' is 48 GHD/HTU, significantly below the maximum channel exposure of 54 GHD/HTU which was used in GE's generic channel. bow analysis (Reference 2).

CliAlmELB0H ANALYSISJEIB00 General Electric performed a cycle-specific analysis for the residual reused channels for LaSalle 1 Cycle 5.

This was evaluated and submitted by CECO to the NRC in Reference 3 and approved by the NRC in Reference 4.

The cycle-specific analysis was required due to the number of reused channels in central, limiting locations.

The exposure history of the reused channels present in the LaSalle 1 Cycle 5 core were evaluated to determine appropriate CPR R-factor bow value adjustments.

R-factors are a location-weighted function of the local pin powers in a bundle.

The LaSalle 1 Cycle 5 evaluation was only performed for reused channels which were present on the interior, limiting assemblies. Cells which are located within four (4) rows of the core periphery were not included due to the large degree of margin in these low power regions.

To reduce the number of reused channels in the LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 core, CECO conservatively decided to replace any reused channels which remain in the interior, potentially limiting locations of the core.

The assemblies which will be rechanneled are shown in figure I J,nd Table 1.

Figure 1 identifies the locations of the assemblies wh1 4: W Fl be rechanneled; Table i lists the channel exposure of these assemblies if they were not rechanneled prior to Cycle 5 operation.

The peripheral cells are projected to have at least 30% margin to the HCPR Operating Limit and at least 20% margin to the LHGR Limit at the most Ilmiting point in the cycle. Therefore, consistent with the LaSalle 1 Cycle 5 analysis and evaluation, these assemblies will not be rechanneled or analyzed specifically due to their substantial margin to thermal limits.

R.EACIORlDES1HMI Since there will be no reused channels in the interior, potentially limiting area of the core, and the maximum projected end of Cycle 5 channel _ exposure is less than 50 GHD/HTU, the appilcation of the NRC-approved GE core a'vera'ge bow methodology for single bundle channels (Reference 2) is appropriate. CECO will apply an R-factor set consistent with this method. GE has concurred with th1y conclusion as shown in Attachment B.

~

MCP_R_SAEEILI.lH11 A potential impact of channel bow is an increase in the MCPR Safety Limit due to increased measurement uncertainties.

GE evaluated the spread in channel bow data for the laSalle 1 Cycle 5 core loading in Reference 3.

GE's evaluation concluded that the variations in the channel bow data was within the tolerances used in their generic methodology (Reference 2); therefore, there was no impact on the HCPR Safety Limit. Since the LaSalle 1 Cycle 5 loading bounds the LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 loading in terms of number and exposure of reused channels, no adjustment to the MCPR Safety Limit is required to ensure fuel cladding integrity. GE has concurred with CECO's conclusion as stated in Attachment B.

ZNLD/1175/4 Page A-2 k

' KliAQlEttLA iceatinuedl-COELUS10!i The previous single _ cycle.of exposure on the remaining 131 reused channels does not present a challenge to the LHGR limit, the-HCPR Operating Limit, or the MCPR Safety Limit.

These channels will be loaded into non-limiting l_ocations of the laSalle 2 Cycle 5 core.

During cycle operation, all assemblies in the core will be modeled.using an R-factor adjustment strategy consistent with the GE generic channel bow methodology.

These steps will ensure that the MCPR Safety limit is protected throughout LaSalle 2 Cycle 5 even in the event of a limiting Abnormal Operating Occurrence.

As indicated in the Reference i response to NRC Bulletin 90-02, CECO has discontinued the previous practice of channeling fresh fuel with previously irradiated channels and is committed to assuring that any residual reused

- channels will have no impact on safety. CECO anticipates that all residual reused channels will be completely discharged by the end of Cycle 7.on Unit I and the end of Cycle 6 on Unit 2.

Until that time, CECO will continue to minimize the number of remaining reused channels during core loading development. Any remaining reused channels which are located in an

- interior, potentially -11miting area of the core will be replaced.

General Electric has evaluated Edison's proposed strategy for

-the residual reused channels.In LaSalle 2 Cycle 5, Reference 1,

and has t he f ol lowi ng ccmnen t s :

R-factor Adjustment gu,, ~.~.~"~ Y ~~~~~~~~~~

Since no reused channels will be resident in the central, potentially limiting locations, and the remaining reused channels wlli have only a single cycle of exposure more than their bundles, the application of the GE core average channel bow methodology, which le described in Reference 2, is appropriate.

MCPR Safety Limit The inpact of the reused channels on ~the MCPR Saf ety Limi t was LaSalle 1 C{erms-of the nunter and locatlon of the reus Reference 3.

The cle 6 loading bounds the propose loading in channels.

Therefore, the conclusion for LaSalle 1 Cycle 5 namely that there is no inpact on the MCPR Saf ety Limi t due to -

_the presence of the residual reused channels, applies.
