'c '- - Lawrence Liver = ore National Laboratory; - - ~, 1. INTRODUCTION 3y letter to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Co "fssion (NRC) dated June 24, 1983 [Ref. 1], the Iowa Electric Light and Power Co=pany sub=1::ed infor=ation to support its proposed license a=end=ent to operate the Duane Arnold Energy Center, Unit 1 (DAIC-1) with one recirculation loop out of service (i.e., single-loop operation). This request supercedes all other-sub=ittals. This infor=ation included the-licensee's analysis of significant events, which were based on a review of accidents and sbnor=al operational ~ transients associated with power operations in the single-loop = ode provided by General Electric Co=pany, Nuclear Energy Division (GE-NED), the nuclear stea: ' supply syste= designer. Conservative assu=ptions were e= ployed, as discussed in the GE-NED report NED0-24272 dated July, 1980 [Ref. 2], :o ensure that the generic analyses for boiling water reactors (37R 3 and/or 4) were applicable to :he DAEC-1. In response to a= NRC request,- the licensee provided supple = ental infor=ation in conference calls of Septa =ber 13, 1983 - [Ref. 3] and Septe=ber 19, 1983 [Ref. 4]. A letter to NRC docu=en:ing :he conference calls was da:cd October 11, 1983 [Ref. 3]. The purpose of this :eport is to docu=ent the evaluation of the electrical, instru=entation, and control (EI&C) design aspec:s of the proposed license a=end=ent change to the DAEC-1 technical specifications. The consider-ation of p:oper plant variables, co=pu:er =odels, and the licensee's conclu-sions on core perfor=ance and clad te=perature are outside :he scope of this evaluation. 3 This review was-conducted using ICCFR30, Appendix A, " General Design Criteria for Nuclear Power Plants" (G.D.C. 20 through 24) [Ref. 6] and IIIE Standard 279-1971 [Ref. 7].with the following' guidance fres the NRC staff for the application of Section 4.13, =ultiple 'se: points, of the IEEE Standard: - Manual switching :o the = ore. restrictive se: point for the A?RMs in the reae:or protec:ica systes is accep:able for SWRs if sufficient adminis::a:ive controls exis: :o assure :ha: :he = ore res:rie:ive seepoin:s are in effec: when : squired by :he plan: Technical Speci- ~ fications. The NRC has defined sufficient ad=inistrative centrols as: 1. There is to be an independent check of the gain or se: point adjust =ent. ~ 2. The check is to be vi:hin the next shift. J 3. Checks are by appropria:e technical individuals (e.g., shift supervisor or SRO). The adjust ents to the reactor protection syste: for single-loop cperation (i.e., SCRAM trip setpoint adjus =ents or A?RM gain adjust =ents) =ust be_within and therefore satisfy the functional require ents of the reactor protection syste. 2. EVALUATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS ~ ..1 2 M.: os.'. w ( .s~ -;,_.g.-_._ The current DAEC-1 Technical Specifications do not per=it single-loop plant operation at reduced power for core than 24 hours. The licensee's propesed technical specification change: would allcw the reactor. to operate at reduced power, not greater than 50%, with one recirculation loop inoperable for more than -24 hours if certain changes are =ade to the reactor protection systems. These changes are to the Average Power Range Monitor (A?RM) SCRAM trip setpoint and the Rod Block Monitor (R3M) rod block setpoint or to the A2RM gain. A different flow pattern is es:ablished in the vessel during single-recirculation-loop operation as co= pared to the norcal two-loop operatica (Ref. 2]. In single-loop operation, there is backflow through the je: pe=ps in the idle loop. The jet-pu=p core flow reasure:ent syste: 10 calibrated only when both loops are in operation and all jet pu=ps are in forward flow. - The total' core flow is the su= of the =easured ja: pump flows. In single-loop operation,'the =easured flow in the backflowing jet pu=ps =us: be sub-tracted fro: the flow through the other jet pu=ps. Also, the je: pu=p flow coefficient is' different ftr reverse ficw than for. forward flow in :he je: i pu=ps. .--~ Because of the different f'.ow rate and flow path during single-recirculation-loop: operation, the A?lM SCRAM trip _ settings, which are flow-i biased according to.the equation'in the proposed technical. specifications, require reset:ing to protect the re.-::or fro =. overpower. The rod block se. - j - poinc equation is flow-biased-in ths sa:e way and with the same flow signal l
- as the A?RM se
- point, and us: also
- =cdified: o provide - adequate core protec: ion-for a.postula:ed rod. withdrawal error.- This change is effectively - acconplished by ac A?RM gain adjust =ent. S O E g y y-n w r* 7 m v =
6 [ i The =anual A?RM gain adjustment to acce==odata single-loep operation is the only change i= posed upon the DAIC-1 reactor pro:ection systen (R?S). This codification adds the tera 0.66 W :o _:he APRM readings to co=pensa:e for backflow through: the jet pumps of the idle loop. This change will not cause the RPS to violate General Design Cri:eria 20 to 24 of ICC?Rf0 Appendix A. The licensee provided in a letter dated Octcher 11, 1983 (Ref. 3] the l ad=inistrative controls to be used to assure that the gain adjus::ents are per-for=ed correctly. The Duane Arnold staff will write a procedure which imple ents the requirements of the proposed single-loop operation. The =ul:1ple SCRAM trip se: points will not be used to adjus: the reactor protection sys:en for single-loop operation. Instead, the A?RM SCRAM and rod block settings will be effec-tively reset by the A?RM gain adjust =ents. These gain adjust:ents for starting single-loop operation will be performed by the licensed reactor operator. A second reactor operator will independently review the settings as an adainistra-tive control. The Senior Reactor Operator and the Shif t Technical Advisor will review the docunentation. This =eets'the NRC definition for sufficient ad=in-istrative controls. c. - %ga,c3 ;;;;, u_.,,..,.;_.,. .,,.p.,gg-3. CONCLUSIONS ~ - Based on our. review of the infor:ation and docu=ents provided b'y the licensee in References 1 and 5, we conclude that the A?RM gain adjust =ents for 1 sin 3 e-loop operation will satisfy the functional require =ents of the reactor, i protection systen. .n i The manual A?RM gain adjust =ent settings to acco==odate single-loop. coeration is the only change i= posed upon the Duane Arnold Energy Center, Unit i reactor protection systen (R?$) instru enta: ion. This change.uill not cause the R?S ins:rumentation syste= to violate ICC7R30 Appendix A General Design Criteria f 20 through 24 (Ref. 6] or IEEI 279-1971 [Ref. 7] with the exception of the IEEE standard as discussed below.~ 3ecause of backflow through the jet pu=ps in the idle loop during single-recircula:icn-loop operation, indications in the control roos of ind!vi-i dual je: pu=p flow and total su=ned core flow will be =isleading. We-recce=end j that these ano=alous control roon indications be corrected or warning-tagged for the duration of the single-recirculation-loop operation, as required by Section 4.20 of IIII Standard 279-1971 [Ref. 7]. s rirt The adsinistrative conrrels to be used by the licenses to assure the A?RM gain adjust =ents are performed correctly =ee: the NRC criteria for suffi-cien: ad=inistrative controls. t-3 ~ We recc==end to the NRC, that upon implementation cf the above recen=endsd actions, the proposed electrical, ins:runenta: ion, and cen:rol design aspects of the proposed license acend ent for single-recircula: ion-loop operation at Duane Arnold Energy Center, Uni: 1 he found accep;able.

SUBJECT:
SLO OPERATION SER'S As discussed in our nesting of January 25, we are withdrawing our SER aoprovals for all the plants currently requesting pemanent SLO. This decision is based on new data which indicates the potential for local thermal hydraulic instabilities which would not be detected by only monitoring APRM flux noise, which we previcusly recc=m:.nded. He are continuing to evaluate this problem and expect to establish criteria for acceptable SLO in the near future, & Lu /t J L. S.
