EDWIN I. HATCH NUCLEAR PLANT i 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 4 3.2.2. and 3.3.2.1.

~

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.

. 1 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.
