8-262 Accident Sequence Precursor Program Event Analysis LER No:
366/88-017 Event
Description:
Reactor trip and failure of RCIC pump Date of Event:
May 27, 1988 Plant:
Hatch Unit 2 Summnary A deficient condensate and feedwater pump vent and fill procedure resulted in air binding in the condensate booster pumps, which caused a trip of main feedwater and subsequent reactor trip.
As the reactor level dropped in response to the reduced feedwater flow, HPCI and RCIG started as designed; however, RCIG failed to inject because of a failed limit switch.
The conditional probability of core damage has been esti-mated at 2.0 x 10-5.
The relative significance of this event compared with other potential events at Hatch 2 is shown below.

Trip with HPCI Unavail Event Description While at 98%, operators were preparing a condensate pump for service later in the day.
In the process of filling and venting the pump, an air bubble was released into the condensate system, which tripped the condensate booster pumps and the reactor feedwater pumps.
Reactor level dropped, causing a reactor scram and automatic initiation of the HPCI and RCIC pumps.
Although RCIC started as designed, the pump failed to ramp up due to a failed limit switch on valve 2E51-F045.
As a conse-quence of the failed limit switch, the RCIC woodward controller would not respond to speed demands.
B-263 The root cause of the event has been identified as a deficient conden-sate and feedwater vent and fill procedure while the unit is at power.
Additionally, the limit switch on valve 2E51-F045 was replaced.
ASP Modeling Assumptions and Approach This event as been modeled as a loss of feedwater and reactor trip with RCIC failed.
Analysis Results The conditional probability estimated for the event is 2.0 x 10-5, a moderate significance event.
The dominant sequence to core damage (p =9.3 x 10-6) involves failure of an SRV to close following the trip (p =
0.036), failure of HPCI (p =
0.02), and failure to depressurize using ADS (p = 0.013).
The failure of RCIC impacts the third most domi-nant sequence (4.9 x 10-6).
In this sequence, all SRVs successfully close, but all high-pressure injection plus depressurization capability is lost.
The dominant core damage sequence is shown on the following event tree.
