2.1 SAFETY LIMITS BASES 2.1.1 AND 2.1.2 REACTOR CORE The restrictions of this safety limit prevent overheating of the fuel cladding and possible cladding perforation which vould result in the release of fission products to the reactor coolant.

Overheating of the fuel cladding is prevented by restricting fuel operation to within the nucleate boiling regime where the heat transfer coefficient is large and the cladding surface temperature is slightly above the coolant saturation temperature.

Operation above the upper coundary of the nucleate boiling regime vould result in excessive cladding temperatures because of the onset of departure from nucleate boiling (DNB) and the resultant sharp reduction in heat transfer coefficient.

DNL is not a directly measurable parameter during operation and therefore THERHAL POVER and Reactor C6olant Temperature and Pressure have been related to DNB through the B&V-2 DNB correlation. The DNB correlation has been developed to predict the DNB flux and the location of DNB for axially uniform and non-uniform heat flux distributions.

The local DNB heat flux ratio, DNBR, defined as the ratio of the heat flux that would cause DNB at a particular core location to the local heat flux, is indicative of the margin to DNB.

The minimum value of the DNBR during steady state operation, normal operational transients, and anticipated transients is limited to 1.30.

The value corresponds to a 95 percent probability at a 95 percent confidence level that DNB vill not occur and is chosen as an appropriate margin to DNB for all operating conditions.

The curve presented in Figure 2.1-1 represents the conditions at which a minimum DNBR of 1.30 is predicted for the maximum possible thermal power 112% when the reactor coolant flov is 380,000 GPM, which is approximately 108% of design flow rate for four operating reactor i

coolant pumps.

(The minimum required sensured flov is 389,500 GP.M.)

l This curve is based on the following hot channel factors with potential l

fuel densification and fuel rod boving effects:

1 r,. 2.83, t,. 1.21, r"g. 1.65 s

The design limit power peaking factors are the most restrictive calculated at full power for the range from all control rods fully withdravn to minimum allovable ;ontrol rod withdraval, and form the core DNBR design basis.

DAVIS-BESSE, UNIT 1 B 2-1 Amendment No. 41.

A3, 41,123

SAFETY LIMITS BASES The curves of Figure 2.1-2 are based on the more restrictive of two thermal limits and account for the effects of potential fuel densification and potentiel fuel rod bow.

1.

The 1.30 DNBR limit produced by a nuclear power peaking factor of F=

2.83 or the combination of the radial peak, axial peak, and l

o pcsition of the axial peak that yields no less than a 1.30 DNBR.

I 2.

The combination of radial and axial peak that causes central fuel melting at the hot spot. The limits are 22.0 kv/ft for batch 1F and l

20.5 kv/ft for batches 6, 7 and 8.

l Power peaking is not a directly observable quantity and therefore limits have been established on the basis of the reactor power imbalance produced by the power peaking.

The Lpecified flow rates for the two curves of Figure 2.1-2 correspond to the analyret minimum flow rates with four pumps and three pumps, I

respectively.

The curve of Figure 2.1-1 is the most restrictive of all possible rea; tor coolant pump-maximum thermal power combinations shown in BASES

, Figure 2.1.

The curves of BASES Figure 2.1 represent the conditions at which a minimum DNBR of 1.30 is predicted at the maximum possible thermal power for the number of reactor coolant pumps in operation or the local quality at the point of minimum DNBR is equal to +22%,

whichever condition is more restrictive. These curves include the potential effects of fuel rod bov and fuel densification.

SAFETY LIMI'tS BASES For the curve of BASES Figure 2.1 a pressure-temperature point above and to the lef t of the curve vou,ld result in a DNBR greater than 1.30 or a local quality at the poitit of minimus DNBR less than +22% for that particular reactor coolant pump situation.

The 1.30 DNDR curve for three pump operation is less restrictive than the four pump curve.

2.1.3 REACTOR COOLAFT SYSTEM PRESSURE 4

The restriction of this Safety Limit protects the integrity of the 1

Reactor Coolant System from overpressurisation and thereby prevents the release of radicnuclides contained in the reactor coolant from reaching the containment atmosphere.

The reactor pressure vessel and pressuriser are designed to Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code which permits a maximum I

transient pressure of 110%, 2750 psig, of design pressure. The Reactor Coolant Systes piping, valves and fittings, are designed to ANSI B 31.7, 1968 Edition, which permits a maximum transient pressure of 110%, 2750 psig, of component design pressure.

therefore consistent with the design criteria and associated codeThe Safety Limi requirements.

i The entire Reactor Coolant System is hydrotested at 3125 psig. 125%

of design pressure, to demonstrate integrity prior to initial operation.

REACTOR 'ROTECTION SYSTEM INSTRUMENTATION SETPO!NTS The reactor protection system instrumentation trip setpoints scecified in Table 2.2-1 are the values at which the reactor tries are set for each param-eter. The trip setcoints have been selected to ensure that the reactor core and reactor coolant systen are prevented frem exceeding their safety limits.

The snutdown bypass p.ovides for bycassing certain functions of the reactor orotection systen in order to cemit control red drive tests, zero cower *HYS-ICS TESTS and certain startuo and snutdown procedures.

The purpose of tne shutdown eypass high eressure trip is to prevent nomal coeration with snut-down bypass activated.

RC High Temperature The RC high temperature trip i 618'F prevents the reactor outlet s

temperature from exceeding the design limits and acts as a backup trip for all power excursion transients.

y

_ Flux -- 6 Flux /Flov The power level trip setpoint produced by the reactor coolant system flov is based on a flux-to-flow ratio which has been established to accommodate flov decreasing transients from high power where protection is not provided by the high flux / number of reactor coolant pumps on trips.

The power level trip setpoint produced by the power-to-flov ratio presides both high power level and lov flow protection in the event the reactor power level increases or the reactor coolant flow rate d6 creases.

The power level setpoint produced by the power-to-flow ratio provides overpower DNB protection for all modes of pump operation.

For every flov rate there is a maximum permissible power level, and for every power level there is a minimum permissible lov flow rate.

Examples of typical power level and lov flow rate combinations for the pump situations of Table 2.2-1 that would result in a trip ara as follows:

1.

Tri) vould occur when four reactor coolnt pumps are operating if povur is 108.0% and reactor coolant flov rate is 100% of full flov rate, or flov rate is 92.59% of full flov rate and power level is 1001.

\\

2*

Trip would occur when three reactor coolant pumps are operating if power is 80.68% anc reactor coolant flow rate is 74.7% of full flov i

rate, or flow rate is 69.44% of full flow rate and power is 75%.

Note that the value of 80.6% in Figure 2.2-1 was truncated from the

{

calculated value of 80.68%.

For safety calculations the instrumentation errors for the power level were used.

Full flow rate in the above two examples is defined as the flow calculated by the heat balance at 100% power. At the time of the calibration the R::S flow vill be greater than or equal to the value in Tame 3.2-2.

b 3/4.1 REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.1 80 RATION CONTROL 3/4.1.1.1 SHUTDOWN MARGIN A sufficient SHUTDOWN MARGIN ensures that 1) the reactor can be made subcritical from all operating conditions, 2) the reactivity transients associated with postulated accident conditions are controllable within acceptable limits, and 3) the reactor will be maintained sufficiently subcritical to preclude inadvertent criticality in the shutdown condition.

During Modes 1 end 2 the SHUTDOWN MARGIN is known to be within limits if all control rods are OPERABLE and withdrawn to or beyond the insertion limits.

SHUTDOWN MARGIN requirements vary throughout core life as a function of fuel depletion RCS boron concentration and RCS T"Na.

The mest restrictive condition occurs at EOL, with T at no d operating temperature.

The SHUTOOWN MARGIN required U 9 consistent with FSAR safety analysis assumptions.

i 3/4.1.1.2 BORON DILUTION A minimum flow rate of at least 2800 GPM provides adequate mixing, prevents stratification and ensures that reactivity changes will be gradual through the Reactor Coolant System in the core during boron concentration reductions in the Reactor Coolant System. A flow rate of at least 2800 GPM will circulate at equivalent Reactor Coolant System volume of 12.110 cubic feet in approximately 30 minutes.

The reactivity change rate associated with boren concentration reduction will be within i

the capability for operator recognition and control.

3/4.1.1.3 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT l

The limitations on moderator temperature coefficient (MTC) are i

provided to ensure that the assumptions used in the accident and transient analyses remain valid through each fuel cycle. The surveillance require-ment for measurement of the MTC each fuel cycle are adequate to confirm the MTC value since this coefficient changes slowly due principally to a

the reduction in RCS boron concentration associated with fuel burnup.

The confirmation that the measured MTC value is within its limit provides assurance that the coefficient will be maintained within acceptable values throughout each fuel cycle.

l DAVIS BESSE, UNIT 1 B 3/4 1-1 i

I REACTIVITY CONTROL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.1.4 MINIMUM TEMFERATURE FOR CRITICA1.ITY This specification ensures that the reactor vill not be made critical with the reactor coolant system average temperature less than 525'F.

This limitation is required to ensure (1) the moderator temperature coefficient is within its analysed temperature range, (2) the protective instrumentation is within its normal operating range. (3) the pressuriser is capable of being in an OPERABLE status with a steam bubble, and (4) the reactor pressure vessel is above its minimus RT temperature.

The boron injection system ensures th4t negative reactivity contrcl is available during each snde of facility operation.

The components required to perform thir function include (1) borated water sources, (2) makeup or DHR pumps, (3) saps ste flow paths (4) boric acid pumps, (5) associated heat tracing systems, and (6) an emergency power supply from operable emergency busses.

Vith the RCS average temperature above 200'F, a minimum of two separate and redundant boron injection systems are provided to ensure single functional capability in the event an assumed failure renders one of the systems inoperable. Allowable out-of-service periods ensure that minor component repair or co:;rective action may be completed without undue risk to overall facility safety from injection system failure.- during the repair period.

The boration capability of either system is sufficient to provide a SgUTDOVN MARGIN from all operating conditions of 1.0% Ak/k after menon decay and cooldovn to 200'F. The maximum boration capability requirement occurs from full power equilibrium xenon conditions and requires the equivalent of either 7373 gallons of 8742 ppe borated water from the boric acid storage tanks or 52,726 gallons of 1800 ppe borated water from the borated water storage tank.

The requirement for a minimum available volume of 482,778 gallons of l

borated water in the borated water storage tank ensures the capability for borating the RCS to the desired level. The specified quantity of borated water is consistent with the ECCS requirements of Specification 3.5.41 therefore, the larger volume of borated water is specified.

Vith the RCS temperature belov 200'F, one injection system is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the DAVIS-BES!?, UNIT 1 B 3/4 1-2 Amendment No.A1, 33, Ah, M, A1,123

REACTIVITY CONTRnL SYSTEMS BASES 3/4.1.2 BORATION SYSTEMS (Continued) stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the additional l

restrictions prohibiting CORE ALTERATIONS and positive reactivity change in the event the single injection system becomes inoperable.

The boron :apability required below 200*F is sufficient to provide a i

SRWDOW MARGIN of 1% ok/k af ter xenon decey and cooldown from 200'F to i

70'F.

This condition requires either 600 gallons of 7875 ppa borated water from the boric acid storage system or 3,000 gallons of 1800 ppa borated water from the borated vater storage tank.

The botton 4 inches of the borated water storage tank are not available, i

and the instrumentation is calibrated to reflect the available volume.

All boric acid tank volume is available. The limits on water volume, and boron concentration ensure a pH value of between 7.0 and 11.0 of the solution recirculated within containment after a design basis accident.

The pH band minimises the evolution of iodine and minimises the effect of chloride and caustic stress corrosion cracking on mechanical systems and components.

The OFERABILITY of one boron injection system during REFUELING ensures I

that this system is available for reactivity control while in MODE 6.

3/4.1.3 MOVABLE CONTROL ASSEMBLIES The specifications of this section (1) ensure that acceptable power distribution limits are mai.itained (2) ensure that the minimum SRWD0VN MARGIN is maintained, and (3) limit the potential effects of a rod ejection accident.

OPERABILITY of thq control rod position indicators j

is required to determine control rod positions and*thereby ensure compliance with the control rod alignment snd insertion limits.

The ACTION statements which permit limited variations from the basic requirements are accompanied by additional restrictions which ensure that the original criteria are met.

For example, misalignment of a i

safety or regulating rod requires a restriction in THERMAL POVER. The reactivity vorth of a misa11gned rod is limited for the remainder of the i

fuel cycle to prevent exceeding the assumptions used in the safety t

analysis.

[

l The position of a rod declared inoperable due to misalignment should not i

be included in computing the average group position for determining the OPERABILITY of rods with lesser misalignments.

MOVABLE CCNTROL ASSD#.3 LIES (Continued)

The maximum rod drop time permitted is consistent with the assumed rod drop time used in the safety analyses. Nessurement with Tavs 2 525'T and with re-actor coolant pumps operating ensures that the ressured drop times will be representative of insertion times experienced during a reactor trip at operat-ing conditions.

Control rod positions and CPERABILITY of the rod position indicators are re-quired to be verified en a nominal basis of once per 12 hours1.388889e-4 days 0.00333 hours 1.984127e-5 weeks 4.566e-6 months with frequent verifications required if an automatic acnitoring channel is inoperable.

These variitcation frequencies are adequate f or assuring that the applicable LCO's are satisfied.

' Technical Specification 3.1.3.8 provides the ability to prevent excessive power peaking by transient xenon at RATED THERMAL PORER. Operating restrie-tiens resulting frem transient xenon power peakAnn, including xenon-f ree startup, are inherently included in the limits of Sectiens 3.1.3.6 (Regulat-ing Rod Insertion Limits), 3.1.3.9 (Axial Power Shaping Rod Insertion Limits),

and 3.2.1 (Axia\\ Power Imbalance) fer transient peaking behavior bounded by the following factors.

For the period of cycle operation where regulating red groups 6 and 1 are allowed to be inserted at RATED THERMAL POWER, an 8 peaking increase is applied at or above 92: TP.

An 18 increase is applied belov 92: TP.

For operation where caly regulating red group 7 is allowed to be inserted at RATED TRERMAL POWER, a 51 peaking increase is applied at or above 92: TP and a 13 increase is applied belov 92: TP.

If these values, checked every cycle, conservatively bound the peaking sf fects of all transient xen6n, then the need for any hold at a power level cutof f be-lov RATED THEPy.AL POWER is precluded. If not, either the power level at which the requirenants of Section 3.1.3.8 must be satisfied or the above-listed f ac-tors vill be suitably adjusted to preserve the LOCA linear heat rate limits.

The li=1tation on axial ' power ' shaping red insertion is necessary to ensure that.pover peaking limits are not exceeded.

I 3/4. 5 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEMS (ECCS) l BASES 3/4.5.1 CORE FLOODING TANKS i

The OPERABILITY of each core flooding tank ensures that a sufficient volume of borated water will be imediately forced into the reactor vessel in the event the RCS pressure falls below the pressure of the tanks.

This initial surge of water into the vessel provides the initial cooling mechanism during large RCS pipe ruptures.

The limits on volume, boron concentration and pressure ensure that the assumptions used for core flooding tank injection in the safety analysis are met.

The tank power o "operating bypasses" perated isolation valves are considered to be in the context of IEEE Std. 279-1971, which requires that bypasses of a protective function be removed automatically whenever permissive conditions are not met.

In addition, as these tank isolation valves fail to meet single failure criteria, removal of power to the valves is required.

The limits for operation with a core flooding tank inoperable for

'iny reason except an isolation valve closed minimizes the time exposure of the plant to a LOCA event occurring concurrent with failure of an additional tank which may result in unacceptable peak cladding tempera-tures.

If a closed isolation valve cannot be imediately opened, the full capability of one tank is not available and prompt action is required to place the reactor in a mode where this espability is not required.

3/4.5.2 and 3/4.5.3 'ECCS SUBSYSTEMS The OPERABILITY of two independent ECCS subsystems with RCS average temperature > 280'F ensures that sufficient emergency core cooling capability wT11 be available in the event of a LOCA assuming the loss of one subsystem through any single failure consideration.

Either subsystem operating in conjunction with the core flooding tanks is capable of supplying. sufficient core cooling to maintain the peak cladding tempera-tures within acceptable limits for all postulated break sizes ranging from the double ended break of the largest RCS cold leg pipe downward.

In addition, each ECCS subsystem provides long term core cooling capability in the recirculation mode during the accident recovery 4eriod.

e EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEMS BASES Vith the RCS temperature belov 280'F, one OPERAELE ECCS subsystem is acceptable without single failure consideration on the basis of the stable reactivity condition of the reactor and the limited core cooling requirements.

The Surveillance Requirements provided to ensure OPERABILITY of each component ensures, that, at a minimum, the assumptions used in the safety analyses are met and that subsystem OPERABILITY is maintained.

The decay heat removal system leak rate surveillance requirements assure that the leakage rates assumed for the system during the recirculation phase of the lov pressure injection vill not be exceeded.

Surveillance requirements for throttle valve position stops and flow balance testing provide assurance that proper ECCS flovs vill be main-tained in the event of a LOCA.

Maintenance of proper flow resistance and pressure drop in the piping system to each injection point is necessary to (1) prevent total pump flov from exceeding runout conditions when the system is in its minimum resistance configuratinn, (2) provide the proper flov split between injection points in accordance with the assumptions used in the ECCS-LOCA analyses, and (3) provide an acceptable level of total ECCS flov to all injection points equal to or above that assumed in the ECCS-LOCA analyses.

3/4.5.4 BORATED VATER STORAGE TANK The OPERABILITY of the borated water storage tank (BVST) as part of the ECCS ensures that a sufficient supply of borated water is available for injection by the ECCS in the event of a LOCA. The limits on BVST minimum volume and boron concentration ensure that 1) sufficient water is available within containment to permit recirculation cooling flov to the core, and 2) the reactor vill remain suberitical in the cold condition following mixing of the BVST and the RCS vater volumes with all control rods inserted except for the most reactive control assembly.

These assumptions are consistent with the LOCA analyses.

The bottom 4 inches of the borated water storage tank are not available, and the instrumentation is calibrated to reflect the available volume.

The limits on water volume, and boron concentration ensure a pH value of between 7.0 and 11.0 of the solution sprayed within the containment after a design basis accident. The pH band minimizes the evolution of iodine and minimizes the effect of chloride and caustic stress corrosion cracking on mechanical systems and components.
