Dear Mr. Skovholt:

By letter dated October 26, 1973, you requested revised curves representing the limits for the average planar linear heat generator rate for GE Type I and II fuel assemblies in the Oyster Creek reactor.

These revised curves are to present the results of detailed heatup calculations following a pos tulated LOCA at exposures greater than 15,003 KJJ/T.

i By letter dated October 31, 1973, you requested similar calcu-lations and curves defining limiting conditions for the EXXON Type III-E fuel in the Oyster Creek reactnr. These calculations were to be dcae under specified conditioris. ' Further, a sensitivity analysis was requested in support of our September 7,1973, Request for Change to the Oyster Creek Technical Specifications.

Attachment I presents the revised limiting curves for Types I, II, and.III-E fuel. The limiting curve for Type III fuel is also shown for completeness. These curves were generated using the conditions specified in your two letters.

1

1 presents the results of a parametric study j

performed to measure the sensitivity of the peak clad temperature to changes in the spray heat transfer coefficients at the time of passive rod quenching and to changes in quenching time, In short, this study shows that under the worst case assumption, reduction of the applicable spray heat. transfer coefficients to a value of zero at the time of passive rod wetting, the calculated peak clad terrperature is increased by only 6 F.

ATTACIDOTT II.

u Requested Parametric Study -- Exxon Type III-E Puel

Parametric studies were performed to illustrate. the sensitivity' ofIthe peak cla'd temperature,to the assumed in'ert spacer capture rod wetting time and.to assumed ~ variations'in the spray heat transfer icoefficients'occuringatthattime.- The ac'suraed spacer capture rod
wetting time-was varied from the, time of rated spray to the previously calculated conservative Yamanouchi quench time. For each case the spray coefficients for rod groups 3 and 4 were halved at the assumed I

spacer capture rod wettinC-time.

The results of these calculations

/ are given in-Table 1.

In addition, as a further. ineature of the sensitivity

. of PCT to the assumed spray' heat tronsfer coefficients, the spray hsat transfer coefficients for rod crcups 3 and 4 were ucs ned to drop to zere i

i concurrently with an assumed spacer capture rod wetting time of 200 sec5nds.

The results of this assumption is shown on the last line of

Table 1.

Ac the analysis indicates, the poch clad tercernt'.tre is

~ relatively insensitive to the time of assuaed spacer capture rod uctting, even uhon it is accampanied by ve:y conservative at::er.ed chanEes in i

the sprey heat transfer coefficients.
