3/4.1 REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.1 BORATION CONTROL 3/4.1.1.1 SHUTDOWN MARGIN A sufficient SHUTDOWN MARGIN ensures that 1) the reactor can be made subcritical from all operating conditions, 2) the reactivity transients associated with postulated accident conditions are controllable within acceptable limits, and 3) the reactor will be naintained sufficiently subcritical to preclude inadvertent criticality in the shutdown condition.

SHUTDOWN MARGIN requirements vary throughout core life as a function of fuel depletion, RCS boron concentration, and RCS Tavg. The most restrictive condition occurs at EOL, with Tavg at no load operating temperature, and is associated with postulated steam line break accident and resulting uncontrolled RCS cooldown. In the analysis of this accident, a minimum SHUTOOWN MARGIN of 1.6% ak/k is initially required to control the reactivity transient. Accordingly, the SHUTDDWN MARGIN requirement is based upon this limiting condition and is consistent with FSAR accident analysis assumptions. With Tavg less than 200*F, the most restrictive reactivity transients resulting f rom the postulated Boron Dilution Accident are such that a 1.6% ak/k SHUTOOWN MARGIN is initially required.

3/4.1.1.3 BORON DILUTION A minimum flow rate of at least 3000 GPM provides adequate mixing, prevents stratification and ensures that reactivity changes will be gradual during boron concentration reductions in the Reactor Coolant System. A flow rate of at least 3000 GPM will circulate an equivalent Reactor Coolant System volume of 12,900 cubic feet in approximately 33 minutes. The reactivity change rate associated with boron reductions will therefore be within th.e capability for operator recognition and control.

3/4.1.1.4 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (MTC)

The limitations on MTC are provided to ensure that the assumptions used in the accident and transient analyses remain valid through each fuel cycle. The surveillance requirement for measurement of the MTC at the beginning, middle, and near the end of each fuel cycle is adequate to confirm the MTC value since this coef ficient changes slowly due TROJAN-UNIT 1 B 3/4 1-1 Amendment No. 64, 110
