ENCLOSURE 1
FARLEY UNIT 1 CYCLE 8 RADIAL PEAKING FACTOR LIMIT REPORT l
This Radial Peaking Factor Limit Report is provided in accordance with Paragraph 6.9.1.11 of the Joseph M. Farley Nuclear Plant Unit 1 Technical Specifications.
4 The Fry limits for RATED THERMAL POWER within specified core planes for Cycle 8 shall be:
ba{k"D"'controlrods.
F$P less than or equal to 2.00 for all core planes containing 1.
n 2.
For.all unrodded core planes:
F)TP less than or equal to 1.71 up to core elevations of 6.9 f t.
F}jP less than or equal to 1.76 for core elevations above 6.9 ft.
l These Fxy(z) limits are used to confirm that the heat flux hot channel factor Fq(z) will be limited to the Technical Specification values of:
7 Fq(z) < 2.31 [K(z)] for P > 0.5 and, j
P Fq(z) 3 62 [K(z)] for P$0.5 4
{
assuming the most limiting axial power distributions expected to result from the insertion and removal of control banks C and D during operation, including the accompanying variations in the axial xenon and power distributions as described in the " Power Distribution Control and Load Following Procedures,"
l WCAP-8385, September 1974. Therefore, these Fry limits provide assurance that t
the initial conditions assumed in the LOCA analysis are met and the ECCS acceptance criteria limit of 2200*F for Peak Clad Temperature is not exceeded.
