2.0 - CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT. CYCLE 13 1..
CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT This Core Operating Limits Report for Millstone 2 has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Technical Specification 6.9.1.8. The Technical Specifications affected by this l%N report are listed below-.
Section Specification 2.1 3/4.1.1.1 SHUTDOWN MARGIN - Tm > 200*F 2.2 3/4.1.1.2 SHUTDOWN MARGIN - T.;g 5 200*F 2.3 3/4.1.1.4 Moderator Temperature Coefficient 2.4 3/4.1.3.6 Regulating CEA Insertion Limits 2.5 3/4.2.1 Linear Heat Rate 2.6 3/4.2.3 TOTAL UNRODDED INTEGRATED RADIAL PEAKING FACTOR - F/
2.7 3/4.2.6 DNB Margin Terms appearing in capitalized type are DEFINED TERMS as defined in Section 1.0 of the Technical Specifications.
2.0 OPERATING LIMITS The cycle-specific parameter limits for the specifications listed in Section 1.0 are presented in the following subsections. These limits have been developed using the NRC-approved methodologies specified in Technical Specification 6.9.1.8.b.

The regulating CEA groups shall be limited to the withdrawal sequence and to the insertion limits shown in Figure 2.4-1. CEA insertion between the Long Term Steady State Insertion Limits and the Transient insertion Limits is restricted to:
a.
5 4 hours4.62963e-5 days <br />0.00111 hours <br />6.613757e-6 weeks <br />1.522e-6 months <br /> per 24 hour2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> interval, b.
5 5 Effective Full Power Days per 30 Effective Full Power Day interval, and c.
514 Effective Full Power Days per calendar year.
2.5 Unear Heat Rate (Specification 3/4.2.1)
The Linear heat rate, including heat generated in the fuel, clad and moderato not exceed 14.6 kw/ft.
f During operation with the linear heat rate being monitored by the Excore Detector Monitoring System, the AXIAL SHAPE INDEX shall remain within the limits of Figure 2.5-1.
During operation with the linear heat rate being monitored by the incore Detector Monitor System, the alarm setpoints shall be adjusted to less than or equal to the limit when the following factors are appropriately included in the setting of the alarms:
1.
A measurement-calculational uncertainty factor of 1.07, 2.
An engineering uncertainty factor of 1.03, and 3.
A THERMAL POWER measurement uncertainty factor of 1.02.
2.6 TOTAL UNRODDED INTEGRATED RADIAL PEAKING FACTOR - F,' (Specification 3/4.2.3)
The calculated value of Fr'shall be < 1.69.
2.6.1. The Power Dependent Fr' limits are shown in Figure 2.6-1.
