1.0 INTRODUCTION

! (

. The Core Operating Limits Report (COLR) for Plant Hatch Unit 1 Cycle 17 is prepared in  !

accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification S.6.5. This document was l

also produced in accordance with the requirements of BWRCA procedure BCA 40-10 and is documented in a DRF under QA No. NFS-96-029. 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 17 are documented in References 3 and 4.

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

a. Control Rod Block Instrumentation - Technical Specification 3.3.2.1
b. Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHGR) - Technical Specification 2.1 I
c. Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR) - Technical Specifications 3.2.2 and 3.3.2.1
d. APRM Flow Biased Simulated Thermal Power - High - Technical Specifications Surveillance Requirement 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:

a. Thermal Power is 2 29% and < 90% of Rated Thermal Power, and MCPR is < l.70; or
b. Thermal Power is 2 90% of Rated Thermal Power, and MCPR is < l.40.

1 Revision 0 l

Plant Hatch Unit 1 Cycle 17 Core Operating Limits Report 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 APLHGR limit taken from Figures 3-3 through 3-8, multiplied by the smaller of either:

a. The flow-dependent multiplier, MAPFACr, 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 fuel (i.e., GE9-330, GE9-331, GE13-LUA, GE9-346, and GE12-331) must be less than or equal to the APLHGR limits shown in Figures 3-3, 3-5, 3-6,3-7, 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 3-3,3-5,3-6,3-7, and 3-8.

Plant Hatch Unit 1 Cycle 17 Core Operating Limits Report 4.0 MCPR LIMIT (Technical Specification 3.2.2)

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

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

a. For 25% s power < 30%, the OLMCPR is given in Figure 4-1.
b. For power 2 30%, the OLMCPR is the greater of either:
1) The flow-dependent MCPR limit determined from the applicable mammum core

{

flow limit line ofFigure 4-2, '

or 1

2) The product of the values from Figure 4-1 and the applicable Figures 4-3 and 4-4 as determined by Table 4-1.

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

In Figures 4-3 and 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 Specifications Surveillance Requirements 3.1.4.1 and 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.
