UNIT 1 FUEL CYCLE 16 CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT l

1.0 INTRODUCTION

i The Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) for Plant Hatch Unit 1 Cycle 16 is I

prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 5.6.5.

The core operating limits presented herein were developed using NRC-approved

~

methods (References 1 and 2). Results from the fuel vendor's reload analyses for the fuel in Unit 1 Cycle 16 are documented in References 3 and 4.

l The following cycle-specific core operating limits are included in this report:

}

a. Control Rod Block Instrumentation - Technical Specification 3.3.2.1.
b. Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHGR) -

Technical Specification 3.2.1.

f

c. Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR) - Technical Specification 3.2.2. and 3.3.2.1.

4

~

d. APRM Flow Biased Simulated Thermal Power-High, time constant - Technical Specifications Surveillance Requirement SR 3.3.1.1.14.

2.0 ROD BLOCK MONITOR (Technical Specification 3.3.2.1)

Both Rod Block Monitor (RBM) channels shall be operable as specified in Technical Specification 3.3.2.1 and when:

i

a. THERMAL POWER is 2 29% and < 90% of RATED THERMAL POWER, and the MCPR is < l.70.

or

b. THERMAL POWER is 2 90% of RATED THERMAL POWER and the MCPR is < l.40.

3.0 APLHGR LIMIT (Technical Specification 3.2.1)

The APLHGR limit for each fuel type is given by the applicable rated-power, rated-flow APLIIGR limit taken from Figures 3-3 through 3-8, multiplied by the smaller of either:

a. The flow dependent multiplier, MAPFAC, from Figure 3-1, or
b. The power dependent multiplier, MAPFACp from Figure 3-2.

For the fuel types whose APLHGR limits are shown in Figures 3-3 through 3-8, the APLHGR limit shall be applied to each axial location in the fuel assembly.

As required by GESTAR (Reference 1), the hand-calculated APLHGR values for a multi-lattice (i.e., GE9-330, GE9-331, and GE13-LUA) fuel must be less than or equal to the APLHGR limits shown in Figures 3-4,3-7 and 3-8,

(

respectively. When APLHGR values are determined by the process computer, the lattice-dependent APLHGR limits are used. Under these conditions, some axial locations may have APLHGR values exceeding the values shown in Figures 3-4,3-7, and 3-8.

Plant Hatch Unit 1 Fuel Cycle 16 Core Operating Limits Repon 4.0

. MCPR LIMIT (Technical Specification 3.2.2)

The MCPR operating limit (OLMCPR) is a function of core power, core flow, average scram time, fuel type, number of operating recirculation loops, operability of end-of-cycle recirculation pump trip (EOC-RPT) system, and operability 'of turbine bypass valves.

With both recirculation pumps in operation (TLO), the OLMCPR for each fuel type with various combinations of equipment operablity, scram times, core flow and core power is determined as follows:

i For 25% 5 power < 30%, the OLMCPR is given in Figure 4-1.

For power 2 30%, the OLMCPR is the greater of either:

j A) The flow-dependent MCPR limit determined from the applicable maximum core flow limit line of Figure 4-2, or B) The product of the values from Figures 4-1 and the applicable Figure 4-3 through 4-4 as determined by Table 4-1.

As stated in the note on Figures 4-3 through 4-4, with one recirculation pump operating (SLO), the calculated operating limit MCPR determined above, is increased by 0.01.

In Figures 4-3 through 4-4, Option A scram time MCPR limits correspond to T = 1.0, where t is determined from scram time measurements performed in accordance with Technical Specification SR 3.1.4.1 and SR 3.1.4.2. Option B values correspond to t = 0.0. For scram times between Option A and Option B, the MCPR limit for each fuel type corresponds to t. If t has not been determined, Option A limits are to be used. Refer to Table 4-1 to determine the applicable set of fuel-type dependent curves.
