INTRODUCTION Q

The emergency Response Guidelines (ERGS)-provide generic technical guid applicable to.all Westinghouse-designed commercial press'uri:ed water reactor i

plants.

The ERGS.are developed in low pressure (LP) and high pressure (HP)

' versions to address'the most significant difference in plant design configuration.from a standpoint of the plant response to emergency transie i.e.,- the maximum shutoff pressure of the safety injection system.

The HPl version ~is 4pplicable to plants that_are designed-with a safety injection system shutoff pressure greater than the reactor coolant system pressurizer power operated relief valve (PORV) pressure setpoint.

High pressure plants utilize.the charging pumps as safety injection pumps.

L The LP version is applicable to plants that are designed with a safety injection system shutoff pressure less than the reactor coolant system pressurizer power operated relief. valve (PORV) pressure setpoint.

i Low pressure plants do not utili:e the charging pumps as safety injection pumps.

Each serston of the ERGS is based on a generic reference plant configuration.

-f The reference plant is developed to sufficiently define a configuration for which technical guidance can be developed while maximizing tne applicability of the technical guidance. Application of the ERGS to a plant-specific i

configuration requires that. the utility review the plant specific configuration relative to the reference plant configuration.

1 This review will establish applicability uf the ERGS to the specific plant and provide inout to l

the plant-specific procedure development effort.

This document defines the reference plant for the HP version of the ERGS, i

The HP reference plant is basically a 4-loop plant with system design features similar to current Westinghouse-design plants.

PLANT SYSTEMS The reference plant is defined in ten.is et twenty-five separate plant systems

~

which form a generic set that has general applicability to a broad range of plants.

The plant systems are grouped into four categories:

1)

Control and Protection Actuation Systems 2)-

Instrumentation Systems 3)

Process Control Systems 4)

Support Systems Each system is defined to the extent necessary to maximize technical guidance -

.with respect to-system-operation la response to an emergency transi< tnt and to maximize the generic applicability of that technical guidance.

The reference plant systems are identified by category in Table 1.

The-following subsections describe the systems from an emergency operations perspective.

Figures are incluced to show the reference plant' systems where appropriate.

Table 2 provices a legend of symbols used in the. figures.

Detail shown on the figures is consistent with the instrumentation and equipment specifically identified in the ERGS, aiding the user of this document in identifying and comparing the reference plant irm rumentation and equipment to the plant-specific instrumentation and' equipment.

Additional detail (e.g., valves) is not shown where the detail exceeds that specifically identified in the ERGS.

2.3 Nuclear Instrumentation System The nuclear instrumentation system (NIS) monitors anc displays the react state of the reactor core.

It censists of instrumentation that monitors leakage neutron flux outside the reactor vessel.

Neutron flux is monitored over the source, intermediate, and power ranges.

Startup rate is calculated over the source and intermeciate ranges.

The NIS includes a neutron flux recorder that can be switched to record diffe m nt ranges.

The source range neutron flux detectors automatically energize when flux decreases below the source range high flux trip (P-6) setpoint following a reactor trip, permitting the neutron flux recorder to be manually transferred to the source range scale.

2.4 Control Rod Instrumentation System The control rod' instrumentation system monitors and displays rhe position of the control rods in the reactor core.

It provides control rw3 position and red bottom light indications.

2.6 Containment Instrumentation System The containment instrumentation system monitors the environmental condition and isolation status of containment.

It consists of containment pressure and temperature instrumentation, containment recirculation sump level instrumentation, and position indication for containment isolation valves and dampers.

2.7 Reacter Coolant System The reactor coolant system (RCS) transfers heat from the reactor core to the main steam system or residual heat removal system and provides a barrier against the release of reactor coolant or radioactive material to the containment environment.

The RCS consists of four identical heat transfer loops (connected in parallel to the reactor vessel), a pressuri:er and a pressuri:er relief tanL Each loop includes a*RTD bypass loop.

Flow frnm the RCS hot leg and cold leg enters a bypass loop and returns via a ccmmon header to the reactor coolant pump (RCP) suction.

Each bypass loop contains a hot leg and cold leg manifold that incluces RTD temperature sensors used in plant control and protection.

HP RET PLANT 12 64789:1 September 1, 1983

e

' The pressuri:er is connected to the hot leg of one loop via the pressuri:er surge line and the cold legs of two loops via the pressuri:er spray ~ lines.

The pressuri:er has two power operated relief valves (PORVs) with associated block valves, three ASME code safety valves, and heaters.

RCS pressure _is controlled by use of the pressuri:er where water and steam are maintained in equilibrium through use of the heaters, water spray, and steam release.

The pressuri:er PORVs and safety valves discharge to the pressuri:er relief tank where steam discharge is condensea and cooled by mixing with water.

Normal operating pressure of 2235 psig in the RCS is maintained by a Pressure Control System which automatically energi:es heaters and normal spray in the pressuri:er as '6ecessary to maintain pressure.

Pressurizer PORVs are automatically controlled to open at 2335 psig, and the safety valves have a lift pressure of 2485 psig.

A Cold Overpressure Protection System functions to limit RCS pressure to a C

programmed maximum (as a function of temoerature) at low RCS temperatures.

This control system

=t L

...c.ib olaced in service and utili:es only the pressuri er PORVs to limit RCS pressure.

The reference plant RCS is shown in Figure 1.

2.8 Safety Infection System

(,.4 4

u ur/sc EEG.)

The safety injection (SI) system provides borated water to the reactor coolant system for events that require engineered safeguards features operatien.

The safety injection system is designed to operate in three physical configurations or modes depending on the plant transient and time into the piant transient:

Cold leg injection ecde (short-term core cooling mode) o The cold leg injection mode is defined as that configuration in which borated water is delivered from the refueling water storage tank (RWST) to the RCS cold legs.

m: w Cold leg recirculation moce (long-term core cooling mode) o The cold leg recirculation mode is cefined as that configuration in which borated water is recirculated from the containment_sume to the RCS cold legs.

i This modeLis initiated by an automatic opening of the containment sump ~

isolation valves to the Safety Injection System resulting from a combin d "l e.

ow RWSTlevelad.SIl"sign?l.

M -;. c.t t em I.a o

Hot leg recirculation mode (long-term core cooling and boron concentration control)

The hot leg recirculation mode is that configuration in which borated water -is recirculated from the containment sump to both the RCS hot legs and RCS cold 7

legs. This mode is initiated by manual operator action based on time into the transient.

The safety injection system consists of the following four major subsystems.

C Charoino/SI Subsystem The charging /SI subsystem consists of two centrifugal charging /SI pumps and a boron injection tank (BIT). These pumps are part of the chemical and volume 4

control system and provide charging and RCP seal injection flow during normal operation.

Upon receipt of an SI signal, these pumps are automatically isolated from the normal charging function and aligned for SI cold leg L

injection.

The charging /SI pump miniflow isolation valves remain open following SI actuation.

In the injection alignment the charging /SI pumps take suction from the RWST and discharge through the BIT (and RCP seal injection) to all RC5 cold. legs.

During recirculation modes, the charging /SI oump su'ction is aligned to the discharge of the low-head SI pumps and the d remains through the BIT to the RCS cold legs.

The discha< 'e shutoif pressure of the charging /SI pumps is greater than the RCS prr er PORV setpoint pressure.

HP REF 15 647EE:1 Septemoer 1, 1953

The BIT contains 12 weight percent (21000 ppm boren) boric acid solution.

During normal operation the BIT contents are isolated by parallel inlet and

.{

outlet sets of motor operated valves.

i The reference plant charging /SI subsystem is shown it, Figure 2. -Those portions of the charging /SI subsystem that are part of the chemical and volume

('

control system are shown as dashed in Figure 2.

Hich-Head SI Subsystem The high-head SI subsystem consists of two centrifugal high-head SI pumps.

These pumps are part of the SI system and are normally aligned for SI cold leg injection.

Upon receipt of an SI signal, the high-nead SI pumps automatically start in the SI cold leg injection mode.

In this mode the high-head SI pump!,

take suction from the RWST and discharge to all RCS cold legs (through the accumulator discharge lines).

During recirculation moces, the high-head SI pumps are aligned to take suction from th'e low-head SI pumo discharge and to discharge to all RCS cold legs or hot legs depending on recirculation mode.

The discharge shutoff head pressure of the high-head SI pumps is approximately 1600 psig.

The reference plant high-head SI subsystem is shown in Figure 3.

Low-Head $1 Subsystem (refer Le O Hr/zc EEGs)

The low-head SI subsystem consists of two centrifugal pumps and two heat exchangers. These pumps and heat exchangers are part of the residual heat removal system aid provide normal plant shutdown heat removal.

During normal l

operation, these pumps are aligned for SI cold leg injection.

Upon receipt of an SI signal, the low-head SI pumps automatically start in the SI cold leg injection mode.

In this mode the low-head SI pumps take suction from the RW$i and discharge to all RCS cold legs (through the accumulator discharge lines).

The RHR system consists of.two RHR pumps (that also function as low-head SI pumps);and two RHR heat exchangers.

The RHR. system provides,ormal shutdown

< heat removal when RCS pressure.and temperature are reduced to agoroximately 400.psig and 350 F.

During normal shutdown heat' removal operatior.s. each RHR pump suctioncis aligned to one RCS hot leg and' the RHR pump discharge is aligned to prf.RCS cold legs.

4wo Portions of the RHR system also function as part of the low-head SI subsystem.

This shared function is cescribed in Section 2.8.

The reference plant residual beat removal system is shown in Figure 6.

1 C.10 Chemical anc Volume Control System The chemical and volume control system (CVCS) provides water.to the reactor coolant system and provides core reactivity contrcl for normal operations and any event that coes not require ESF operation.

The CVCS consists of charging and letcown capability for contro: of RCS inventory.

Letdown capability is provided by two letcown paths (the let'down line and the excess 'retcown line, with the excess letdown line providing a lower capacity alternate letdown path to the letdown line).

Charging capability is proviced by three charging pumps (two centrifugal pumps that also function as charging /SI pumps and one positive displacement pump) that deliver flow to the RCS through a charging line and RCP seal injection lines.

The RCP seal injection lines deliver to each RCP and provide RCP seal cooling.

A single RCP seal return line returns RCP seal leakoff flow to the suction of the charging pumps.

The charging line is automatically isolated on an SI

(

signal and the letdown and RCP seal return lines are aute..atically isolated on a"containment isolation Phase A signal.

Suction flow to the charging pumps is provided by the volume control tank k'

(VCT) which is connected to the letdown line or by the refueling w:ter storage HP REF PLANT 22 6475B:1 Septencer 1, 1983

'The main steam system provices controlled heat removal from the reactor..

coolant. system via the steam generators.

It consists of separate main isteamlines from eacn steam generator that join to form a common steam heacer leading.to the turoine generator and condenser.

The steam generators can be isolated from the main steam neader by main steamline isolation and bypass-valves located in the indivicual main steamlines.

The valves can be selectively closed via operator action in the control. room to. isolate a specific' steam generator. All main steaalinefisolation and bypass valves automatically close on a main steamline~ isolation signal.

Main. steam release capability is provided via the condenser steam dump system and the atmospheric steam dumo system.

The condenser steau dump system uses the main steam heacer and steam dump valves to the condenser.

The atmospheric steam dump system uses power operated relief valves upstream of the main steamline isolation valves to release steam to the atmosphere.

Each main steamline contains ASME code safety valves for overpressure protection.

Steam supply lines from the main steamlines to the turbine-firiven AFW pump are provided from two steam generators.

The steam supply lines include isolation valves for initiation and isolation of steam supply to the turbine-driven AFV pump.

The design and normal operating (no-load) pressures of the main steam system so are approximately gg... psig and i.'00 psig, respectively.

s ee r The setpoint pressures of the main steamline safety valves and steamline PORVs

(

12. 7 Reactor Coolant System (RCS)

The cold overpressure protection system is evaluated and described in the FSAR chapter 5.

This difference does not effect the generiq guideline.

The pressurizer spray lines are r7nnected to RCS loops 1 and 2.

This does not effect the generic guidelines.

The reactor vessel head vent system is evaluated and described in the FSAR chapter 5.

The discharge of vent system is routed to the pressurizer relief tank.

This feature will be included in the plan 2 specific procedure when the reactor vessel head is vented.

The RCS pressure transmitters are connecte/ to loops 1 and 3.

The WOG Generic Instrumentation states that the RCS (? :ssumed to have at least two wide range pressure transmitters connected to the RHR hot leg suction lines.

This instrumentation is assumed to be subject to adverse containment conditions. SQN, in its review of the needed characteristics (e g. accuracy) for c

this instrument (RCS wide range pressure and RCS subcooling),

decided that a more accurate indication is required than would be provided if lo:ated inside containment (due to the harsh environment).

SQN has therefore relocated the transmitter outsiue contoineent. This parameter does meet the WOG guidelines with respect to range and number.

Reactor Vessel Licuid Inventory System (RVLIS)

TVA, in accordance with our letter from J. A. Domer to E. Adensam dated August 14, 1985, has implemented non-RVLIS version of E0Ps at SQN.

The status regarding RVLIS and its impact on E0Ps, Safety Parameter Display System (SPDS) and Technical Support Center (TSC) was discussed in a meeting held on July 28, 1985 with NRC representatives.

In accordance with our commitments with you, TVA will implement a RVLIS version of E0Ps before startup from the unit 2 cycle 3 refueling outage.

Containment Atmosehere Control Systems The changes to the plant specific guideline is described and evaluated in the UHI/IC ERGS.

Main Feedwater and Condensate System Valve position of the feedwater control bypass must be determined locally.

The feedwater control bypass valves are non-safety grade and described and evaluated in FSAR 10.4.7.

The plant specific procedure will be revised to locally check the valve position if main feedwater flow is indicated.

Condensate Storace Tank (CST) Level Instrumentation The WOG Generic Instrumentation requires at least two channels of a v. elta P measurement system are available to monitor the level in each CST.

SQN CSTs have one level indicator per tank, however, the tanks are tied together by way of the supply'to ATW pu=ps.

In addition, in accordance with FSAR,'0.4.7.2 and 9.2, the ERCW system is considered the safety-grade supply to ATW pu=ps.

SQN therefore finds t!ais deviation acceptable.

/,.:o Revised FR-S.I. "Respouse to Nuclear Power Generation /ATWS" Concerning Tripping the Turbine SQN received several ' validation and verification' comments concerning tripping the turbine within 30 seconds of an ATWS event. To alleviate these concerns. TVA has analyzed a postulated loss of feedwater ATWS for SQN assuming no automatic or manual actions within the first three minuters of the This analysis was_ performed using the RETRAIN 03 MOD 003 computer code event.

in conjunction with a SQN specific model.

The analysis was based on reactivity parameters characteristic of unit 1 cycle 3 beginning-of-life core data to remove conservatisms and credit the partial burnup benefit in the moderator temperature coefficient.

Results of this analysis show that ASME pressure limits are not exceeded and, hence, no short term mitigative actions, manual or automatic, are necessary. See the attached table for a comparison of component maximum pressures as computed by this analysis and the maximum allowable pressures based on the ASME limits.

In addition, TVA has committed to implement an ATWS mitigating system actuation circuitry (AMSAC) at SQN to meet the requirements of 10 CFR 50.62 per our letter"from R. H. Shell to Harold R. Denton dated October 11, 1985.

The AMSAC system to be implemented is logic to actuate a turbine trip and auxiliary feedwater pump start upon sensing that steam generator water levels are below the low-low setpoint.

This logic senses conditions indicative of an ATWS event when the loss of a heat sink has occurred, but actuation will not occur until after the reactor protection signals should have been generated.
