g SOUTH TEXAS UNIT 2 CYCLE 5 OCTOBER 1995 i CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT His Core Operating Limits Repon for STPEGS Unit 2 Cycle 5 has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 6.9.1.6. The core operating limits have been developed using the NRC-approved methodologies specified in Technical Specification 6.9.1.6.  ;

He Technical Specifications affected by this report are:

!) 3/4.1.1.3 Moderator Temperature Coefficient Limits

2) 3/4.1.3.5 Shutdown Rod Insertion Limit
3) 3/4.1.3.6 Control Rod Insenion Limits
4) 3/4.2.1 AFD Limits
5) 3/4.2.2 Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor
6) 3/4.2.3 ' Nuclear Enthalpy Rise Hot Channel Factor 2 OPERATING LIMITS The cycle-specific parameter limits for the specifications listed in Section 1.0 are presented below.

2.1 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (Specification 3.1.1.3) 2.1.1 The BOL, ARO, MTC shall be less positive than the limits shown in Figure 1.

2.1.2 He EOL, ARO, HFP, MTC shall be less negative than -6.12 x 10d Ak/k/ *F.

2.1.3 The 300 ppm, ARO, HFP, MTC shall be less negative than -5.22 x 104 Ak/k/*F (300 ppm Surveillance Limit).

Where: BOL stands for Beginning-of-Cycle Life i EOL stands for End-of-Cycle Life ARO stands for All Rods Out HFP stands for Hot Full Power (100% RATED THERMAL POWER)

HFP vessel average temperature is 589 *F l Core Operating Limits Report Page 2 of 9 10/D/95 Rev Ocember 26. 1995 18.58 em

e h SOUTH TEXAS UNIT 2 CYCLE 5 OCTOBER 1995 2.2 ROD INSERTION LIMITS (Specification 3.1.3.5 and 3.1.3.6) 2.2.1 He Control Rod Insertion limits are provided in Figure 2.

2.2.2 Fully withdrawn for all Control and Shutdown Banks shall be at least 250 steps withdrawn but not exceeding 259 steps withdrawn.

2.2.3 All banks shall have the same Full Out Position (FOP).

2.3 AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE (Specification 3.2.1) 2.3.1 AFD limits as required by Technical Specification 3.2.1 are determined by CAOC Operations with an AFD target band of +3, -12%.

2.3.2 The AFD shall be maintained within the ACCEFTABLE OPERATION portion of Figure 3, as required by Technical Specifications.

2.4 HEAT FLUX HOT CHANNEL FACTOR (Specification 3.2.2) 2.4.1 Fn "T'= 2.~/0.

2.4.2 K(Z) is provided in Figure 4.

2.4.3 The F,, limits for RATED THERMAL POWER (F,y"') within specific core planes shall be:

2.4.3.1 less than or equal to 2.102 for all core planes containing Bank "D" control rods, and 2.4.3.2 L.ss than or equal to the appropriate core height-dependent value from Table I for all unrodded core planes.

2.4.3.3 PF,, = 0.2.

The SOUTH TEXAS UNIT 2 CYCLE 5 OCFOBER 1995 These F,, limits were used to confirm that the heat flux hot channel factor Fo (z) will be limited by Technical Specification 3.2.2 assuming the most-limiting axial power distributions expected to result for the insertion and removal of Control Banks C and D during operation, I including the accompanying variations in the axial xenon and power distributions, as described in WCAP-8385. Therefore, these F,y limits provide assurance that the initial conditions assumed in the LOCA analysis are met, along with the ECCS acceptance criteria of 10CFR50.46. )

2.5 ENTHALPY RISE HOT CHANNEL FACTOR (Specification 3.2.3) i Standard Fuel VANTAGE SH Fuel 2.5.1 Fas""= 1.49. Fas""= 1.557.
