  • i Question 4.10 Key Revision (b)(2) 'Since there'has to be an SRO.in the control room, an added licensed operator either SRO or R0 is OK. -

Question 5.01 _

u s

E Facility Comment: , ,

Answer of 315*F for part(b) .si inaccurate and reflects misinterpretation'of '

steam tables' Mollier diagram. 305*F is a more accurate answer.'

Resolution ' '

Comment incorrect. Key will be graded to 315* 10*F.

Question 5.02 Facility Comment Question does not state whether core life is BOL or EOL, although the Key reflects EOL.

Note that B for shouldbe7Ifkpcm.ourcoreis.0070,E0L,thereforethecandidates' answer If the candidate assumed BOL, the' answer should be 52 pcm (part (c)).(B,fg BOL

'is .0050).

Resolution s

4 Commentfaccepted. Answer will'be based on candidates assumptions regarding B,gg per operator information manual.

Question 5.05 1 Facility Comment Candidates' answer will likely state "...due to buildup of fission product poisons." Which'would include samarium, xenon, and other less significant

. fission product poisons.

Resolution Comment accepted to be consistent with listed reference.

4 Question 5.08

' Facility Comment The Key answer (b) is a typo. It.should read "2 (linear increase)" vice "3 (linear increase)". Also note thatcthis is a " linear" increase as indicated.

on semi-log chartspaper. .

Resolution:

Comment' accepted. -Typo corrected.

Question 6.02:

Facility Comments For both parts a &,b, chare are other acceptable answers, namely:

1. SPDS ,
2. P-250 Plant Computer "
3. Dedicated Shutdown Panel Resolution Comment accepted. Components added to key per PG&E Dwg. 102035 sheet 6D.

Question 6.03 Facility Comment

- Choice (b) is the correct answer. The reasons:

1. , Choice (a) is not correct. Since the IR logic to reinstate SR instruments is 2/2, the students will assume (correctly) that if one channelisreadinglowghereisnotproblemsincetheOPERABLEchannel g

must also be below 10 amps in order for.the SR NIS to reinstate.

2. "Startup level" is not standard terminology for DCPP. Essentially everyone presented with this term interprets it to mean "Startup rate" vice "IR level", thus they choose choice (b) as their answer (which is an accurate description of SUR response).

[ ' Question 6.06 , ,

Facility Comment:-

Candidates will likely include the " Steam Flow Chart Recorders" on' Panel CC3 for Part.(C).

Also, there is some potential for problems here since the question asks'for

" instruments or-control systems" and does not specifically solicit protection features.

Resolution:

Steam flow chart recorder added as a correct answer.

Question 6.07 Facility Comment Many candidates wil1~ describe the final S/G level-is being slightly higher

'than programmed level,-sincesif level returned exactly to_the " original i setpoint", as stated, then there would be no level error, so level would start to rise again.

Resolution:

Comment incorrect. The level error will eventually dominate a feed-steam flow mismatch.

Question 6.09 Facility Comment The stated answer is the basis for OTdeltaT protection. _For OPdeltaT-protection, the basis is,"to limit rod heat flux (KW/ft) to ensure fuel integrity under al1 possible overpower conditions...."

Resolution:

. Comment accepted. ,

Reference:

Question 6.11 Facility Comments The question specifically states " numerical values and coincidence...not

-desired." In the answer Key, then, bus UV and UF coincidence seem to be required. Inconsistent. -

Fac'ility Comment- g

! Part (a) solicits-indications of " uncontrolled or.itnexplained reactivity '-

-increases" which will require' emergency boration. The.. answer Key tests the ,

sub-symptoms of symptom #4'as the answer, however, symptom #3 is also an uncontrolled reactivity increase.

Part'(c) Answer Key has incorrect valve; number. Emergency boration valve j _ number is 8104,~not 8471.
The manual valve is 8471, as. stated.

Resolution J

Added " uncontrolled RCS cooldown following a reactor trip with no ESF

, actuator" to part (a) per OP AP-6, page 1. Corrected valve number in part (C).

Question 7.04(b) l' Facility Comment i

OP'A-2:II is a complex and infrequent procedure required to be "in-hand".

Candidates are not required to memorize NOTE statements from such procedures.

Resolution l Candidates should be aware of general procedure for removing the RPV head.

l Comment not accepted.

i i

Question 7.05 Facility Comment I' The answer key does not assume 2 things (1. and 2. below) which are vital in proper compliance with this'LCO.

1. At time 0900, the Rx is not only outside of the target band, but is outside of the Acceptable Operation Limits _ curve. Therefore, thermal power must be less than-50% within 30 minutes (0930 hours0.0108 days <br />0.258 hours <br />0.00154 weeks <br />3.53865e-4 months <br />). We were not at 50% till 1035.

i h 2. 50% is not acceptable. The ACTION ~ statement clearly states that to j

comply, you must be below 50% (and not equal to). .

N l?.

  • - 7
3. .Even if you assume that 50% is acceptable, (i.e. 50% means _50%) then the answer to part (d) is 09371 based on the time that the LCO requirements and the logged data: I hour of cumulative penalty-time in the previous 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.
4. Also, reduced trip setpoint was done late.

-Resolution:

1. ' Violation added to key.

2.. The question and answer are adequate. No change needed.

3. Comment accepted.
4. Comment accepted.-

Question 7.07 ,

s Facility Comment General comment.' It11s inapprophiate to' expect SRO's to be able to memorize various accident classifications given that the classification procedure is approximately-65 pages long. A more appropriate question is to give them the procedure and event in-timed sequence and have them classify it.

(5) Could be "(A)"Jor "(B)";if 'five' is in an area that has vital equipment.

Resolution -

"(B)" will be accepted,as correct if candidate states appropriate assumption.

Question 7.08 Facility Comment

'Part (b) Although the question says "following a reactor trip with an inadvertent SI", some candidates may list the conservative termination criteria which include adverse containment criteria of (20%] as shown in the relevant procedures.

Resolution: l Commen't accepted. Key changed to read " greater than 4[20]%" vice " greater than 4% per EP E-1.

Question 8.03 Facility Comment The Key answer is correct in that the startup may not proceed due to the requirements of Technical Specification 3.0.4. The loss of a diesel fuel oil transfer pump no longer makes a diesel generator inoperable, as indicated in the answer Key. New ACTION f. covers loss of a diesel fuel oil train.

'The candidate-may be inclined to answer "yes" to part 5 if he interprets the high wind as a "..'. natural. phenomenon that posesan actual threat to the i

safety of the nuclear plant or significantly hampers site personnel in.the performance of duties necessary for safe operation of the plant.", per -

10 CFR 50.72(b)(iv).

Resolution:-

A "yes" answer for part 5 will be~ accepted if the candidate qualifies his answer as described.

Question 8.05 Facility Comments Specification definitely does not apply in part (b),-therefore, the answer should be "Does not-apply".

Following a 60 day run at 100 % power _the reactor has been in hot-shutdown for 72 hours8.333333e-4 days <br />0.02 hours <br />1.190476e-4 weeks <br />2.7396e-5 months <br />. Using STP R-17 an ECP of 850 ppm baron has been calculated for 100 steps on control bank D and 552 F.

Assume the following reactivity coefficients, defects, and values. (Show your work and state assumptions needed for any calculations.)

Moderator temperature coefficient - 15 pcm/F Differential baron worth - 10 pcm/pom Average rod worth 6 pcm/ step Initial source range count rate (with all rods in) 20 CPM (a) After the ECP is computed you find that RCS temperature is actually 545 F and reactor engineering tells you that the ECC should have used a critical rod height of 120 steps. What is the new critical baron concentration 7 (1.0)

(b) While conducting the start-up you observe that the count rate has increased to 50 CPM when all the shutdown banks have been with-drawn. Based on this observation, what is the approximate reactivity worth of the shutdown banks ? (The reactor engineer informed you that with all rods in, 545 F and borated to be critical at 120 steps on control bank D Keff should be 0.931) (1.0)

(c) If the start-up is delayed one day how will samarium affect the ECC ? (boron higher, same or lower) (0.5)

(d) If the start-up is delayed one day how will xenon affect the ECC 7 (boron higher, same or lower) (0.5) 5.06 ANSWER (a) (545 - 552) x (-15) + (120 - 100) x 6= 105 + 120 = 225 pcm 255/10 pcm/ ppm = 23 ppm additional baron (873 ppm) (1.0)

(b) CR1(1 - Keff1) = CR2(1 - Keff2) 2O(0.069) = 50(X): 1.38/50 = 0.0276 (negative reactivity with shutdown banks out): p= (K - 1)/K = 0.0276/O.9724 =

0.02838; 6900 - 2838 = 4062 pcm .

Alternate for 75 % credit: CR1 : p1 = CR2 x p2; so 50 X =

20 x 6900, X = 2760 pcm, 6900 - 2760 = 4140 pcm (1.0)

(c) Lowers baron required (samarium build-up adds negative '

reactivity) (0.5)

(d) Same boron required (xenon han decayed away) (0.5)

(b) Why.is the no-load S/G 1evel limited to'33 % ? (1.0) 6.07 ANSWER (a) S/G 1evel will increase above the programmed setpoint then slowly return to original setpoint. The difference'between' feed-flow and steam flow will. generate an error signal which will'open the feedwater regulating valve, which will initially raise'S/G 1evel..The level contro11er' integrates the difference between programmed level and actual level which makes the level error eventually dominate-over the flow error and shut the regulating (2.0)'

valve to decrease S/G level.

(b) This limits S/G mass for a steamline break inside containment accident (which limits RCS cooldown positive reactivity insertion and containment pressurization). (1.0)
