B.28-1 B.28 LER No. 325/82-041 Event
Description:
Both RHRSW Loops Simultaneously Inoperable Date of Event:
March 25, 1982 Plant:
Brunswick I B.28.1 Summary Loop B of the residual heat removal (RHR) service water (SW) system was found to be inoperable during a period when loop A was tagged out for maintenance. The estimated increase in core damage probability, or importance, over the duration of the event is 4.7 x I10.
The base-case core damage probability (CDP) over the duration of the event is 2.9 x 10"7, resulting in an estimated conditional core damage probability (CCDP) of 4.7 x 10'.
B.28.2 Event Description During power operations, an auxiliary operator discovered that the motor cooler isolation valves to 1 B and ID pumps were open with the pumps not running. Investigating, he found that the breaker which supplied the motor cooler isolation valves had tripped, de-energizing the valves as well as the B loop RHRSW low-suction header pressure switches. In turn, this rendered the B loop of RHRSW inoperable. At the same time, loop A RHRSW was tagged out for maintenance.
B.28.3 Additional Event-Related Information Loop B of RHRSW had been flushed approximately two days prior to the event, which entailed manipulation of the breaker in question.
B.28.4 Modeling Assumptions It was assumed that RHRSW loop B was unavailable from the time of the system flush until discovery of the mispositioned breaker. Loop A was assumed to have been unavailable throughout this period as well. This event was modeled as a two-day unavailability of RHRSW and, accordingly, of RHR. The RHRSW pumps at Brunswick maintain a positive pressure differential between the tube and shell side of the RHR heat exchangers, which prevents primary coolant leakage into the service water (SW) system. Adequate decay heat removal can be provided using the SW pump if valves F068A and B are locally opened. This action is addressed in the Brunswick individual plant examination (IPE), and an operator error probability of 0.01 was estimated. To address this section, the nonrecovery probability for RHR was revised to 0.01 to reflect the probability of the operators failing to open F068A and B. For sequences involving potential RHR and PCS recovery, the nonrecovery estimate was revised to 0.01 x 0.52 (see Appendix A), or 5.2 x 10'.

B.28-2 B.28.5 Analysis Results The estimated increase in core damage probability over the duration of the event is 4.7 x 10'. The base-case CDP (not shown in calculation) is 2.9 x 107, resulting in an estimated CCDP of 4.7 x 10W.
The dominant core damage sequence, highlighted on the event tree in Figure B.28. 1, involves a transient with failure of the power conversion system, main feedwater success, and RHR failure.
