QoesW 2.06.s _ B.V.P.S. - 0.M. 2.21.1 MAJOR COMPONENTS Condenser Steam Bypass Valves [2HSS-TCV106A, 106B, 106C, 106D, 106E, 106F, 106G, 106H, 106J, 106K, 106L, 106M, 106N, 106P, 10601, [2 MSS-PCV106A, 106B, 106C.1 s Eighteen 8-inch steam dump valves are located on the south side of the main condenser neck, nine on each half. The steam dump valves are designed to . pass up to 907, of full load steam flow. Main steam pressure is always on I the stearn dump valve inlets. To prevent moisture collection in the valve inlets and steam c' ump. lines, the inlets of each steam dump are piped to a drain line. Fifteen of the valves are designated temperature control valves [2 MSS-TCV106A through 106Q). These valves are blocked or locked out by Lo-Lo Tavg. The remaining three valves are designated cooldown valves [2 MSS- > PCV106A,B,C). The Lo-Lo Tavg interlock may be bypassed for these three valves to allow cooldown of the reactor coolant system. l
- The eighteen steam dump valves, are divided into four banks for control, l The first and third banks consist of five valves each, Banks two and four l have four valves ea h.
I The steam dump valves are Copes-Vulcan. eight inch, D100-160-3 reverse acting tandem trim valves equipped with direct acting top works and a direct acting Moore positioner. Increasing air pressure pushes the valve stem down to open the valve. Decreasing air pressure allows the spring to ' lift the valve stem, closing the valve. The positioner uses a booster relay for faster valve response. Diaphragm operating air is routed through four solenoid valves. The first two solenoid valves control the Lo Lo Tuvg interlock, Train A and B. The third solenoid valve acts as the arming solenoid for condenser available, Rx trip, load rejection, and steam pressure signals. The fourth solenoid is the trip open or modulate solenoid. l d acher s tessWueMa lv e =1 s =me ch an i c e l l y-res t edet e+ 1e rrwerteuma stroke-to prevenscamsifegie valve vflow ofe-greater-when'890ie00@ This limits the consequences of a stuck open valve. Each steam , dump valve discharge is piped into the condenser neck to discharge at an elevation just above the sixth point heater bottom. The l . steam is prevented from impinging the sixth point heaters by a deflector which directs the steam out, up, and down from the* heater. The steam dump l discharges are staggered the length and width of the condenser to distribute the aeat load, l L 10 7 ISSUL 1 REV 2

The operational a, ode is operator selected by the Steam Dump Control Mode Selector Switch on the benchboard. In steam pressure mode, only the first two banks of valves are operational and they modulate to maintain the steam pressure setpoint set by the operator, using the l benchboard mounted steam pressure controller. In Tavg mode, two steam dump controllers are availabis. The reactor trip controller operates the steam dump valves to restore no load Tavg following a reactor trip. Only the , first two banks of valves are operational after a reactor trip. The load rejection contro11~re operates all four banks of valves for large load rejections and the first two banks for small load rejections, to restore Tavg to program value. ( All 18 valves trip closed if Tavg reaches Lo-Lo Tavg. If it is desired to cooldown the reactor plant, the Lo-Lo Tavg interlock may be manually defeated for the three cooldown valves only. 31nce the Lo-Lo Tavg interlock is dual train, two Steam Dump Control Interlock Selector Switches are provided, one for each train. The. Steam Dump Control Interlock Sele.ctor Switches are also used for manually blocking the steam dump control system. All 18 steam dump valves are blocked when the condenser is not available. To be available, the condenser must have sufficient vacuum and at least one cooling tower pump running. (' Load rejection is sensed by turbine first stage pressure. First stage pressure transmiter [2 MSS *PT447 sends a signal to bistables [PC447A] and [PC447B]. These bistables trip on rate of change of first stage pressure. [PC447A) trips on a rapid reduction in firstjstage pressure equivalent to a loss of load between 15% and 50%. [PC447B] trips on a 50% load rejection. ThebistablesaredesignedtolatchONsince!therateofchangesignalwill disappear as soon as first stage pressure reaches its new value. [PC447A] unblocks or arms the first and second bank of valves. [PC447B] unblocks or arms the third and fourth bank of valves. Both arming signals are negated if the condenser is unavailable or 1( Tavg reaches Lo-Lo setpoint. [PC447A and B) are reset by momentarily placing the Control Mode Selector , switch tn RESET. The switch spring returns to TAVG. L l i 11 : ISSUE 1 REY 2

Overvoltage protection is supplied on the 48 volt and 15 volt DC power supplies. The device is a silicon controlled rectifier that clamps the output by providing an ar'tificial load. One key will be provided for all locks on train A d,bors. A different key will be provided to operate all train B locks. l Power Distribution ; Train A and train B both receive power from the four 120 volt AC vital instrumentation busses. The channel I through IV busses enter their respective input cabinet compartcents through fuses in , the compartments. In the input compartments, the busses are used to operate relays driven by external contacts. Two of the four k busses are run through line noise filters at the rear of the input compartment into the DC power supplies in the logic cabinet as shown in Figure 1-41. In train A, busses I snd II feed the power supplies .ind bus I feeds the slave relays. In train B, busses III and IV feed the power supplies and bus IV feeds the slave relays. Separate feeds are brought into tha output cabinet for the slave relays to avoid running unfiltered lines through the logic cabinet. The two 48 volt DC and 15 volt DC power supplies in one train are auctioneered to form one 48 and one 15 volt DC bus.

The question states that the transmitter used for T-ref generation (PT-446) failed low. This will generate a Tref-Tave mismatch for the load rejection controller of the steam dump system; however, the steam dumps will remain closed due to the absence of an arming signal provided by first stage pressure transmitter PT-447. Therefore, the correct response is that the steam dump system will not respond when placed in the Tave mode. (Refer to attached copy of OM 2.21.1, p. L 11) o

Temperature, F 556 Action, air-to-open Fail position (air / electricity) Closed / Closed The steam dump system has two automatic modes of operation, steam pressure mode and Tavg mode. The operational mode is operator selected by the Steam Dump Control Mode Selector Switch on the benchboard. In steam pressure mode, only the first two banks of valves are operational and they modulate to maintain the steam pressure setpoint set by the operator, using the benchboard mounted steam pressure controller. In Tavg mode, two steam dump controllers are available. The reactor trip controller operates the steam dump valves to restore no load Tavg following a. reactor trip. Only the first two banks of valves are operational efter a reactor trip. The load rejection controller operates all four banks of valves for large load rejections and the first two banks for small load rejections, to restore Tavg to program value. All 18 valves trip closed if Tavg reaches Lo-Lo Tavg. If it is desired to cooldown the reactor plant, the Lo-Lo Tavs interlock may be manually defeated for the three cooldown valves only. Since the Lo-Lo Tavg interlock is dual train, two Steam Dump Control Interlock Selector Switches are provided, one for each train. The Steam Dump Control Interlock Sele.ctor Switches are also used for manually blocking the steam dump control system. All 18 steam dump valves are blocked when the condenser is not available. To be available, the condenser must have sufficient vacuum and at least one cooling tower pump running, ry r -'*g--- --- '-- g- - ~ ' - - - - - - -

The plant is operating at 45% turbine load with all control systems in ! automatic. A feedwater flow transmitter (FT496) used for control room feedwater flow indication and steam flow / feed flow mismatch for steam generator 21C is out of service and its associated protection bistables are tripped. A malfunctioning emergency trip header drain valve causes a turbine trip. The reactor trips several seconds later and the main generator output breakers trip even later. Assume no operator action.

(0.50)
- b. What is the most probable cause for the reactor trip? (0.50) !
- c. How soon after the turbine trips will the main generator output breakers trip? (0.50) ,
- d. What is the basis for the time delay associated with tripping the main generator output breakers? (0.50)

Q w s m oro c, .O S F LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS BASES specified in Table 2.2-1, in percent span, from the analysis assumptions. Use of Equation 2.2-1 allows for a sensor drift factor, an increased rack drift factor, and provides a threshold value for REPORTABLE EVENTS. The methodology to derive the trip setpoints is based upon combining all of the uncertainties in the channels. Inherent to the detersiination of the trip setpoints are the magnitudes of these channel uncertainties. Sensors and other instrumentation utilized in these channels are expected to be capable of operating within the allowances of these uncertainty magnitudes. Rack drift in excess of the Allowable Value exhibits the behavior that the rack has not i met its allowance. Being that there is a small statistical chance that this will happen, an infrequent excessive drift is expected. Rack or sensor drift, ' in excess of the allowance that is more than occasional, may be indicative of more serious problems and should warrant further investigation. , Manual Reactor Trip , The Manual Reactor Trip is a redundant channel to the automatic protective
- l. instrumentation channels and provides manual reactor trip capability.
Power Range, Neutron Flux . The Power Range, Neutron Flux channel high setpoint provides reactor core protection against reactivity excursions which are too rapid to be protected by
-( temperature and pressure protective circuitry. The low setpoint provides redund-ant protection in the power range for a power excursion beginning from low power.
The trip associated with the low setpoint may be manually bypassed when P-10 is active (two of the four power range channels indicate a power level of above approximately 10 percent of RATED THERMAL POWER) and is automatically reinstated when P-10.becomes inactive (three of the four channels indicate a power level l below approximately 10 percent of RATED THERMAL POWER). Power Ranae, Neutron Flux, High Rates The Power Range Positive Rate trip provides protection against rapid flux increases which are characteristic of rod ejection events from any power level. Specifically, this trip complements the Power Range Neutron Flux High and Low ( trips to ensure that the criteria are met for rod ejection from partial power. The Power Range Negative Rate trip provides protection to ensure that the minimum DNBR is maintained above 1.30 for control rod drop accidents; At high power a multiple rod drop accident could cause local flux peaking which, when inconjunctionwithnuclearpowerbeingmaintainedequivalenttoturbinepower by action of the automatic rod control system, could cause an unconservative l local DNBR to exist. The Power Range Negative Rate trip will prevent this from l occurring by tripping the reactor. No credit is taken for operation of the l Power Range Negative Rate trip for those control rod drop accidents for which l ONBRs will be greater than 1.30. l (. BEAVER VALLEY - UNIT 2 8 2-3 l l

u BVPS - E0P 2.53B.4 rv.,urgy3 golum. E-3 To provide a more rapid means of depressurizing the RCS and rupturad steam ganarators, a post-SGIR cooldown method using steam dump, ES-3.3, was developed. This is the fastest of the three inethods. However, the radiological consequences must be considered particularly if steam dump to the condenser is unavailable. The NRC has indicated that controlled radiological releases from the affected staam generators should not exceed 10 CFR 20 limits. In addition, if water exists in the steamline, steam release may cause wacer hemmer effects resulting in damage to secondary side equipment. Consequently, this method should not be used if water may exist in the main steamlines. Although the three post-SGTR cooldown procedures are presented as alternate methods, they are similar. Consequently, one could begin with the backfill method, continue with the blowdown method, and complete the recovery using steam dump, provided the limitations of each method are observed. Similarly, for multiple - tube failures, one could execute combinations of the three methods at the s ame time. For example, one could depressurize one ruptured steam generator using blowdown and another using the backfill method. These procedure,s provide the flexibility necessary to cool down and depressurize the plant to cold shutdown conditions for a wide variety of SGTR scenarios. The operating shift must evaluate the three methods to establish a preferred post-SGTR cooldown method and prioritize the alternate methods. The actual recovery method must be determined on an event specific basis with consideration of the available equipment and evolution of the event. For example, normal letdown may be needed to complete recovery using the backfill method, ES-3.1, while steam generator blowdown is needed to implement ES-3.2. The procedure ES-3.3 should not be used if water may exit in the main steamlines or steam releases may lead to unacceptable radiological releases.
- 2. Select Faulted or Ruptured Steam Generator For RCS Cooldown In the unlikely event-that no intact. steam generator is available, one must select either a faulted steam generator, i.e., one with a secondary side break, or a ruptured steam generator for cooling the RCS to RHS operating conditions'. This decision should be based upon consideration of the concerns created by each method and an evaluation of the parameters that effect them. A secondary side break leads to uncontrolled steaming of the affected steam generator and possible overcooling of the RCS. Continued feed flow to this steam generator Will increase the amoust of steam discharged and can increase the uncontrolled cooldown of the RCS.
The potential consequences of continuing to feed a faulted steam generator depends on the size and location of the secondary side break. For breaks inside containment, feed flow to the affected steam generator will result in additional discharge to contain=ent and potentially higher containment pressures and temperatures.

If the student assumed that the entire supply was either identified or unidentified, the answer would be yes. They also could have assumed that the water was not from the RCS but from other sources such as main feed, chilled water, CCP, fire header leakage, PG water, etc., in which case the answer would be no, since the T.S. only refers to RCS leakage.
