CORE AND CONTAINMENT COOLING SYSTEMS A.

Core Spray (CS) System

1. Nor=al System Availability Analyses presented in Reference 1 elemonstrated that the core spray system provides adequate cooling to the core to dissipate the energy associated with the loss-of-coolant accident and to limit fuel clad temperature to below 2200"F which assures l

that core geometry remains intact and to limit any clad metal-water reaction to less than one percent. Core spray distribution has been shown in tests I

of systems similar in design to HNP-1 to exceed the minimum requirements.

In addition, cooling effectiveness has been demonstrated at less than half the rated flow in simulated fuel assemblies with heater rods to duplicate the decay heat characteristics of irradiated fuel.

The intent of the CS sy D m specifications is to prevent operation above j

atmospheric pressure without all associated equipment being operable.

However, during operation, certain components may be out of service for the specified allowable repair times. The allowable repair times have been selected using engineering judgment based on experiences and supported by availability analysis. Assurance of the availability of the remaining systems is increased by demonstrating operability immediately and by requiring selected testing during the outage period.

When the reactor vessel pressure is atmospheric, the limiting conditions for operation are less restrictive. At atmospheric pressure, the minimum requirement is for one supply of makeup water to the core. Requiring two operable RHR pumps and one CS pump provides redundancy to ensure makeup water availability.

2. Operation with Inoperable Components Should one core spray loop become inoperable: the remaining core spray loop and the RHR system are demonstrated to'be operable to ensure their availability should the need for core cooling arise. These provide extensive margin over the operable equipment needed for adequate core cooling. With due regard for this margin, the allowable repair time j

of 7 days was chosen.

B.

Residual Heat Removal (RHR) System (LPCI and Containme: Cooling Mode)

1. Normal System Availability The RER system LPCI mode is designed to provide emergency cooling to the core by flooding in the event of a loss-of-coolant accident. This system is completely independent of the core spray system; however, it does function in combination with the core spray system to prevent excessive fuel clad temperature. The LPCI mode of the RHR system and the core spray system provide adequate cooling for break areas of approximately 0.2 square feet up to and including the double-ended recirculation line break without assistance from the high-pressure emergency core cooling systems.

3.5.J/4.5.J Plant Service Water System The Plant Service Water (PSW) system consists of two subsystems (divisions) of two pumps each and a separate Sttndby service water pump system for diesel generator 18.

During I

norwel full power operation the two subsystems function as a 3 out of 4 pump cross connected system supplying cooling water to the turbine and reactor building cooling systems. In the event of an accident signal, non safety-related cooling loads are iso-lated and the PSW pumps in the two subsystems supply cooling water to diesel generators l A and IC, the reactor building cooling system and the control room air conditioners, while the standby service water pump is available to automatically supply cooling water to diesel generator 18 should it be needed. Additionally, diesel IB has a manual back-up water supply available from tne Unit 1 Division 1 or Division 2 PSW subsystems so that during maintenance on the standby diesel service water pump, either division of the PSW system can manually be aligned to supply cooling water to the 1B diesel. The two subsystems and the standby service water pump system are split in the accident mode for greater reliability with one pump in each of the two subsystems automatically starting while a start signal from diesel generator 18 initiates standby service water pump operation. Only one of the Division 1 PSW pumps and one of the Division 2 PSW pumps are required for cooling diesel generators lA and IC, respectively, while the standby ser-i vice water pump provides adequate cooling water to diesel generator 18.

In the event that the standby service water pump is inoperable, the HNP-1 Division 1-Division 2 intertie supply piping can be aligned to cool the IB diesel. In this condition, one PSW pump is capable of supplying the cooling requirements for the reactor buildi,ng cooling system, the control room air conditioners, and the IA, 18 and IC diesel generators.

l l

The PSW system can supply all power generation systems at full load and the diesel l

generators with redundancy if one PSW pump and/or the standby service water pump are inoperable. Hence, a 60-day outage time is justified if the standby service water pump is inoperable since all four PSW pumps are available (divisional intertie to 1B diesel required). In addition, a 30-day outage is justified if one PSW pump is inoperable, or if one PSW pump and the standby service water pump are inoperable (divisional intertie to 18 diesel required). Should two PSW pumps (or one subsystem) become inoperable, or should two PSW pumps (or one subsystem) and the standby service water pump become inoperable (division intertie to IB diesel required) plant operation will probably only continue at less than full power. However, safety-related loads are still adequately powered for these conditions. Therafore, a 7 day outage time is justified for such events.

Enqineerino Safety Features Ecu1oment Area Coolers

~

The equipment area cooler in each pump compartment is capable of providing adequate ventilation flow and cooling. Engineering analyses indicate that the temperature rise in safeguard compartments without adequate ventilation flow or cooling is such that continued operation of the safeguard equipment or associated auxiliary equip-ment cannot be assured.

The surveillance and testing of the equipment area coolers in each of their various modes is accomplished during the testing of the equipment served by these coolers.

The testing is adequate to assure the operability of the equipment area coolers.

BASES FOR LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION AND SURVEILLANCE RE0VIREMENTS 3.11.

FUEL RODS A.

Averace Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate ( APLHGR)

This specification assures that the peak cladding temperature following the postulated design basis loss-of-coolant accident will not exceed the limit specified in 10 CFR 50.46 even considering the postulated l

effects of fuel pellet densification.

The peak cladding temperature following a postolated loss-of-coolant acci-dent is primarily a function of the average heat generation rate of all the rods of a fuel assembly at any axial location and is only dependent second-arily on the rod to rod power distribution within an assembly. Since ex-pected local variations in power distribution within a fuel assembly affect the calculated peak clad temperature by less than i 20'F relative to the peak temperature for a typical fuel design, the limit on the average linear heat generation rate is sufficient to assure that calculated temperatures conform to 10 CFR 50.46.

The limiting value for APLHGR at rated conditions is shown in Figures 3.11-1, sheets 1 thru 6.

The calculational procedure used to establish the APLHGR shown in Figures 3.11-1, sheets 1 thru 6, is based on a loss-of-coolant accident analysis.

The analysis was performed using General Electric (GE) calculational models which are consistent with the requirements of Appendix K to 10 CFR 50.

The Loss-of-Coolant Accident (LOCA) analysis was performed utilizing the new improved calculational model, SAFER /GESTR-LOCA. The analysis demonstrated that loss-of-coolant concerns do not limit the operation of the fuel since margin to the 2200*F limit was demonstrated (Reference 9).

Therefore, the APLHGR limits for the fuel types shown in Figure 3.11-1 are derived to assure that the fuel thermal-mechanical design criteria are net.

A list of the significant plant input parameters to the loss-of-coolant accident analysis is presented in Tables 4-1 and 4-2 of Reference 9.

Further discussion of the APLHGR bases is found in NEDC-30474-P(*).

A flow dependent correction f actor incorporated into Figure 3.11-1 (sheet 8) is applied to the rated conditions APLHGR to assure that the 2200*F PCT limit is complied with during LOCA initiated from less than rated core flow.

In

{

addition, other power and flow dependent corrections given in Figure 3.11-1

]

(sheets 7 and 8) are applied to the rated conditions APLHGR limits to assure that the fuel thennal-mechanical design criteria are met during abnornal transients initiated from off-rated conditions for two-loop and single-loop operations, References 2 and 8.

For single-loop operation, a 0.75 multiplica-tion factor to APLHGR limits for all fuel bundle types conservatively bounds that required by Reference 2.

For single-loop operation (SLO), the most restrictive of the SLO and ARTS (e) MAPLHGRS will define the Limiting Conditon for Operation.
