APPLICABILITY: OPERATIONAL CONDITION 1, when THERMAL POWER is greater than or equal to 30% of RATED THERMAL POWER.*

l ACTION:

a. With an end-of-cycle recirculation pump trip system instrumentation channel trip setpoint less conservative than the value shown in the Allowable Values Column of Table 3.3.6.2-2, declare the channel inoperable until the channel is restored to OPERABLE status with the channel setpoint adjusted consistent with the Trip Setpoint value.
b. With the number of OPERABLE channels one less than required by the Minimum OPERABLE Channels per Trip System requirement for one or both trip systems, place the inoperable channel (s) in the tripped condition within one hour.
c. With the number of OPERABLE channels two or more less thaa required by the Minimum OPERABLE Channels per Trip System requirement for one trip system and:
1. If the inoperable channels consist of one turbine control valve channel and one turbine stop valve channel, place both inoperable channels in the tripped condition within one hour.
2. If the inoperable channels include two turbine control valve channels or two turbine stop valve channels, declare the trip system inoperable.
d. With one trip system inoperable, restore the inoperable trip system to OPERABLE status within 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br /> or take the ACTION required by Specification 3.2.3.
e. With both trip systems inoperable, restore at least one trip system to OPERABLE status within one hour or take the ACTION required by Specification 3.2.3.
  • During Cycle 6 operation, the end-of-cycle recirculation pump trip (EOC-RPT) system will be inoperable (manually bypassed); therefore, Specification 3.3.6.2 above does not apply. The provisions of Specification 3.0.4 are not applicable.

BRUNSWICK - UNIT 2 3/4 3-82 Amendment No.

POWER DISTRIBUTION LIMITS BASES 3/4.2.2 APRM SETPOINTS The fuel cladding integrity Safety Limits of Specification 2.1 were based on 'a TOTAL PEAKING FACTOR of 2.43 for 8 x 8 fuel and 2.39 for 8 x 8R, P8 x 8R, and BP8 x 8R fuel. The scram setting and rod block functions of the

-- APRM~ instruments must be adjusted to ensure that the MCPR does not become less than 1.0 in the degraded situation. The scram settings and rod block settings are adjusted in accordance with the formula in this specification when the combination of THERMAL POWER and peak flux indicates a TOTAL PEAKING FACTOR greater than 2.43 for 8 x 8 fuel and 2.39 for 8 x 8R, P8 x 8R, and BP8 x 8R fuel. This adjustment may be accomplished by increasing the APRM gain and thus reducing the slope and intercept point of the flow referenced APRM high flux scram curve by the reciprocal of the APRM gain change. The method used to determine the design TPF shall be consistent with the method used to determine the MTPF.

3/4.2.3 = MINIMUM CRITICAL POWER RATIO The required ope. rating limit MCPRs at steady state operating conditions as specified in Specification 3.2.3 are derived from the established fuel cladding integrity Safe Limit MCPR of 1.07, and an analysis of abnormal operational transients. For any abnormal operating transient analysis evaluation with the initial condition of the reactor being at the steady state operating limit, it is required that the resulting MCPR does not decrease below the Safety Limit MCPR at any time during the transient, assuming an instrument trip setting as given in Specification 2.2.1.

To assure that the fuel cladding integrity Safety Limit is not exceeded during any anticipated abnormal operational transient, the most limiting transients have been analyzed to determine which result in the largest reduction in CRITICAL POWER RATIO (CPR). The type of transients evaluated were loss of

. flow, increase in pressure end power, positive reactivity insertion, and

. coolant temperature decrease.

Unless otherwise stated in cycle specific reload analyses, the limiting transient which determines the required steady state MCPR limit is the turbine- l trip with failure of the turbine bypass. This transient yields the

( largest A MCPR. When added to the Safety Limit MCPR of 1.07 the required

!' minimum operating limit MCPR of Specification 3.2.3 is obtained. Prior to the analysis of abnormal operational transients an initial fuel bundle MCPR was determined.. This parameter is based on the bundle flow calculated by a GE multichannel.gadystateflowdistributionmodelasdescribedinSection4.4 of NEDO-20360 and on core parameters shown in Reference 3, response to Items 2 and 9. ,
