DOCKET NUMBER 50-483 CALLAWAY PLANT CYCLE 3 PEAKING FACTOR LIMIT REPORT

Reference:

" Vantage 5 Licensing Amendment Request",

ULNRC-1470, dated March 31, 1987 In accordance with the proposed Callaway Technical Specification 6.9.1.9 (as contained in the referenced submittal), Attachment 1 to thb letter provides the required Cycle 3 Peaking Factor Limit Report.

This report is being submitted now to assure submittal within the required sixty days prior to cycle startup.

The report summarizes the W(z) functions that are to be used in proposed Callaway Technical Specifications 4.2.2.2, 4.2.2.3, and 4.2.2.4 (contained in the referenced submittal) for Fg sur-veillance.

Sincesignificang(marginexistsbetweentheanalytically determined maximum F z)*P rel values and their limit, Restricted g

Axial Flux Difference Operation (RAFDO) is not expected to be required for Cycle 3.

For this reason, values of W(z) for RAFDO operation, defined as W(z)RAFDO, are not supplied for Cycle 3.

The terminology in the Peaking Factor Limit Report is consistent with the proposed Technical Specification changes as given in the referenced submittal letter.

If there are any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

not expected to be used for Cycle 3.

As such, the minimum allowable power level for RAFDO operation, API

, for Callaway Cycle 3 is 100 percent of rated therral power. No values of W(z) are provided for Cycle 3.

1 The W(z) values were calculated using the method described in Part b of Reference 1.

The appropriate W(z) function is used to confirm that the heat flux hot
