SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION The reactor is a pressurized water reactor-(PWR) with two coolant' loops. The reactor coolant system (RCS) circulates water in a ] closed cycle, removing heat from the reactor core and internals l and transferring it to a secondary (steam generating) system. . l The steam generators provide the interface between the reactor ! coolant (primary) system and the main steam (secondary) system. ] The steam generators are vertical U-tube heat exchangers with an I integral economizer in which heat is transferred from the reactor coolant to the main steam system. Reactor coolant is prevented from mixing with the secondary steam by the steam generator tubes and the steam generator tube sheet, making the RCS a closed system thus forming a barrier to the release of radioactive j materials from the core of the reactor to the containment building. The arrangement of the RCS is shown in Figures 5.1.3-1 and 5.1.3-2. The major components of the system are the reactor vessel; two parallel heat transfer loops, each containing one steam generator and two reactor coolant pumps; a pressurizer O connected to one of the reactor vessel outlet pipes; and associated piping. All components are located inside the containment building. Table 5.1.1-1 shows the principal pressures, temperatures, and flowrates of the RCS under normal steady-state, full-power operating conditions. Instrumentation provided for operation and control of the system is described in Chapter 7. System pressure is controlled by the pressurizer, where steam and water are maintained in thermal equilibrium. Steam is formed by energizing immersion heaters in the pressurizer, or is condensed by the pressurizer spray to limit pressure variations caused by contraction or expansion of the reactor coolant. The average temperature of the reactor coolant varies with power level and the fluid expands or contracts, changing the pressurizer water level. l The charging pumps and letdown control valves in the chemical and volume control system (CVCS) are used to maintain a programmed pressurizer water level. A continuous but variable letdown purification flow is maintained to keep the RCS chemistry within prescribed limits. A charging nozzle and a letdown nozzle are provided on the reactor coolant piping for this operation. The i chaiging flow is also used to alter the boron concentration or
) correct the chemical content of the reactor coolant.
l 5.1-1 l
CESSARHRL - O Other reactor coolant loop penetrations are the pressurizer surge line in one reactor vessel outlet pipe; the four safety injection inlet nozzles, one in each reactor vessel inlet pipe; two outlet nozzles to the chutdown cooling system, one in each reactor ! l vessel outlet pipe; two pressurizer spray nozzles; vent and drain connections; and sample and instrument connections. f Overpressure protection for the reactor coolant pressure boundary is provided by four spring-loaded ASME Code safety valves connected to the top of the pressurizer. These valves discharge to the in-containment refueling water storage tank, where the steam is released under water to be condensed and cooled. If the steam discharge exceeds the capacity of the in-containment refueling water storage tank, it is relieved to the containment atmosphere. Overpressure protection for the secondary side of the steam generators is provided by spring-loaded ASME Code safety valves located in the main steam system upstream of the steam line isolation valves. Components and piping in the RCS are insulated with a material compatible with the temperatures involved to reduce heat losses and protect personnel from high temperatures. Principal parameters of the RCS are listed in Table 5.1.1-2. Table 5.1.1-3 lists RCS volumes. Shielding requirements of the surrounding structures are described in Section 12.3. Reactor coolant system shielding permits limited personnel access to the containment building during power operation. The reactor vessel sits in a primary shield well. This and other shielding reduces the dose rate within the containment and outside the shield wall during full power operation to acceptable levels. 5.1.1 SCHEMATIC FLOW DIAGRAM The principal pressures, temperatures, and flow rates at major components are listed in Table 5.1.1-1. These parameters are referenced to Figure 5.1.2-1, the piping and instrument diagram, by numbered locations. Instrumentation provided for operation and control of the RCS is described in Chapter 7 and is indicated on Figure 5.1.2-1. O l Amendment B 5.1-2 March 31, 1988

The analytical model used in the analysis is discussed in Chapter 15. Chapter 15 lists the assumptions used in the turbine trip lE analysis. These assumptions are chosen so that they tend to maximize the required pressure relieving capacity of the primary j and secondary valves. The analysis demonstrates that sufficient relieving capacity has been provided so that when acting in conjunction with the reactor protective system the safety valves will prevent the pressure from exceeding 110% of the design pressure. 5.2.2.3 Eiping_and Instrumentation Diagrams l The piping and instrumentation diagram showing the primary safety valves and their discharge lines is given in Figure 5.1.2-1.. The piping and instrumentation diagram showing the reactor drain tank is given in Figure 9.3.4-1, Sheet 2. The secondary safety valves are discussed in Section 10.3. E 5.2.2.4 Equipment & Component Description The primary safety valves are direct acting, spring loaded, stainless steel valves with enclosed bonnets. These valves are mounted on the top cf the pressurizer. For further description of these valves, refer to Section 5.4.13. A schematic drawing of the primary safety valve is given in Figure 5.4.13-1. Valve parameters are given in Table 5.4-13. i Primary safety valve operation is characterized by a sharp pop at the set pressure. This sharp opening is produced by two stages of reaction working together to produce a continuous action. The initial lift is produced when the steam pressure under the disc exceeds the spring force. The escaping steam reacts against the upper guide ring and pushes the disc up to a high lift. The reaction of the deflected steam against the underside of the disc lifts it higher on an accumulation of pressure. The valve reaches a lift in excess of full bore lift within an accumulation of 3 percent above the set pressure. As the system pressure drops, the valve disc settles to a moderate lift, and closes sharply with a blowdown of approximately 18.5 percent of the set pressure. Amendment E i 5.2-2 December 30, 1988

It is D assumed that the operator is aware of the transient when it commences. 5.2.2.10.1.2 Single Failure In the LTOP mode, each SCS relief valve is designed to protect the reactor vessel given a single failure in addition to the failure that initiated the pre ,sure transient. The event initiating the pressure transient is considered to result from , either an operator error or equipment malfunction. The SCS relief valve system is independent of a loss of offsite power. Each SCS relief valve is a self actuating spring-loaded liquid relief valve which does not require control circuitry. The valve opens when the RCS pressure exceeds its setpoint. The redundant SCS suction line trains between the RCS and SCS relief valves meet the single failure criteria as described in Section 5.4.7.1.2 and Table 5.4.7-3. No single fai]ure of an isolation valve or its associated interlock will prevent one relief valve from performing its intended function. 5.2.2.10.1.3 Testability Periodic testing of the SCS isolation valves is defined in the Technical Specification, Section 16.3/4.5.2. 5.2.2.10.1.4 Seismic Design and IEEE Standard 279 Criteria B The SCS suction line relief valves, isolation valves, associated interlocks, and instrumentation are designed to Seismic Category I requirements as discussed in Sections 3.2.1, 5.4.7.2.4 and D i Table 3.2-1. The interlocks and instrumentation associated with the SCS suction isolation valves satisfy the appropriate portions of IEEE Standards 279, 308 and 603 criteria as discussed in Sections 5.4.7, 7.6.1, 7.6.1.1.1, 7.6.2.1.1 and 7.6.2.2.1 and E Table 7.6-1.

CESSAREMMema A U 5.2.2.10.2.1 Limiting Transients Transients during the low temperature operating mode are more severe when the RCS is operated in the water-solid condition. Addition of mass or energy to an isolated water-solid system-produces increased system pressure. The severity of the pressure transients depends. upon the rate and total quantity of mass or energy addition. The choice of the limiting LTOP transients is based on evaluations of potential transients for System 80 plants and their applicability to the System 80+ plant. lE The most limiting transients initiated by a single operator error or equipment failure are: A. An inadvertent safety injection actuation (mass addition). lE B. A reactor coolant pump start when a positive steam generator to reactor vessel AT exists (energy addition). lE The most limiting transients are determined by conservative analyses which maximize mass and energy additions to the RCS. In addition, the RCS is assumed to be in a water-solid condition at the time of the transient; such a condition has been noticed to exist infrequently during plant operation since the operator is-instructed to avoid water-solid conditions whenever possible. Table 5.2-4 shows the results of the inadvertent safety injection actuation transient analysis for a water-solid RCS, when the RCS E in the LTOP mode. The mass addition due to the simultaneous operation of four safety injection pumps and one charging pump was considered, along with the simultaneous addition of energy from decay heat and the pressurizer heaters. Figure 5.2-1 shows the result of the transient analysis of reactor coolant pump start when a steam generator to reactor lE vessel AT of 100*F exists. This AT is the maximum allowed by technical specification during the LTOP mode. In addition to considering the energy addition to the RCS from the steam generator secondary side, energy addition from decay heat, the j reactor coolant pump and all pressurizer heaters were also l included. In this analysis the steam generators were assumed to be filled to the zero power, normal -water level. For ! conservatism, the secondary water, both around and above the , l U-tubes, was assumed to be thermally mixed in order to maximize l l the energy input to the primary sid?. This assumption is l L conservative since as a result of the temperature distribution i within the steam generator during the transient, the water ; inventory above the tubes is practically isolated thermally froin the heat transfer region. Therefore the heat transfer rate, and r thus the primary side pressure, is not sensitive to the secondary w side water level as long as the tubes are covered.

On the basis of experience, the AT value of 100*F used in the l analysis is much larger than any AT that might be expected during plant operation. This maximum allowable AT of 100*F will prevent pressurizer pressure from exceeding the minimum P-T limit allowed for the lowest system temperature during the LTOP mode of , operation. (See Figures 5.3-Sa and 5.3-5b). During RCS cooldown f E l using the Shutdown Cooling System, coolant circulating with the reactor coolant pumps operating serves to cool the steam generator to keep the temperature difference between the reactor vessel and the steam generator minimal. Procedures for System 80 have directed the operator to maintain the AT below approximately 20*F. LTOP transients have not been analyzed for the simultaneous startup of more than one reactor coolant pump (RCP). Such operation is procedurally precluded since the operator starts only one RCP at a time and a second RCP is not started until system pressure is stabilized. Additionally, there is an LTOP transient alarm that should indicate that a pressure transient is occurring. Accordingly, the second RCP would not be started. The operator not start an RCP if the AT exceeds 100*F. However, as mentioned above, administrative procedures for System 80 have ensured that the AT is maintained below approximately 20*F. E With similar administrative controls on System 80+, AT margins will be even greater that for System 80. The results of the analyses provided in Figure 5.2-1 and Table 5.2-4 show that the use of either SCS relief valve will provide sufficient pressure relief capacity to mitigate the most limiting LTOP events identified above. 5.2.2.10.2.2 Provision for Overpressure Protection During heatup, the RCS pressure is maintained below the LTOP pressure until the RCS cold-leg temperature exceeds the LTOP disable temperature. During cooldown, the RCS pressure is E maintained below the LTOP pressure once the RCS cold-leg temperature reaches the LTOP enable temperature. An LTOP enable temperature is defined in Branch Technical l Position RSB 5-2, "Overpressurization Protection of Pressurized l Water Reactors While Operating at Low Temperatures," to Standard l Review Plan Section 5.2.2, " Overpressure Protection," issued November 1988 as Revision 2. The definition is based on measuring the degree of protection provided by the low temperature overpressure protection system (LTOP System) against violations of the P-T Limits in terms of the RT of the reactor vessel beltline material at either the 1/4t F 3/4e location, gi Amendment E 5.2-10 December 30, 1988 i

The LTOP enable temperature in Branch Technical Position RSB 5-2 is defined as "the water temperature corresponding to a metal temperature of at least RT 90*F at the reactor vessel beltline location (either 1/N or+ 3/4t) that is controlling in the Appendix G [to Section III of the ASME Code] limit calculations." Figures 5.3-Sa and 5.3-5b represent the P-T Limits at the end-of-(plant) life of 60 years. At this time in plant life, the calculated maximum RT I for the reactor vessel beltline is 79'F for the 1/4t location,N nd 69'F for the 3/4t location. Given the implicit assumptions in the P-T Limit analysis described in Section 5.3.2.1.1.D.1, the 3/4t location is the controlling l beltline P-T Limit for heatup, and the 1/4t location is controlling for cooldown. Therefore, in accordance with the definition of the LTOP enable temperature given in Branch Technical Position RSB 5-2, T = 169'F, and T f r cooldown b b *for F + heatup 90*F = is 79'F + 90*F 159'F. I LTOP Figure 5.3-Sa shows that, for heatup, a temperature of 309'F is required before the pressurizer safety valves can be used for overpressure protection without violating any P-T Limits. Figure l , 5.3-5b shows that, for cooldown, the safety valves cannot be used
' below a temperature of 225'F. For the temperature interval 140*F for heatup, as defined by Branch Technical Position aboveT{0P RSB 5- and for the 66*F above T for cooldown, E administrative controls would be required IgPprotect some P-T Limits, particularly the design limit of 100*F/hr. Rather than relying on administrative controls during these temperature intervals, the T enable and disable temperatures for System 80+ are defined g oEhe intersection of the controlling P-T Limit (100*F/hr) curve and the pressurizer safety valve setpoint. ,
During heatup, if the SCS suction isolation valves (SD-673 and '
-671 or SD-670 and -672) are open and RCS pressure exceeds the LTOP pressure, an alarm will notify the operator that a pressurization transient is occurring during low temperature conditions. Either SCS relief valve will terminate inadvertent pressure transients occurring while RCS temperature is below the LTOP disable temperature. For temperatures above the LTOP disable temperature, that corresponding to the intersection of the design P-T limit curve for heatup with the pressurizer safety valve setpoint, overpressure protection is provided by the pressurizer safety valves.

Also, this Technical Specification ensures that appropriate action is taken if one or more SCS relief valves 're out of service during the LTOP mode of operation.

Solution Heat Treatment Requirements All raw austenitic stainless steel material, both wrought and cast, used in the fabrication of the major NSSS components in the RCPB, is supplied in the annealed condition as specified by the pertinent ASTM or ASME Code: 1900-2050*F for 1/2 to 1 hour per inch of thickness and water quenched to below 700'F. The time at temperature is determined by the size and type of component. Solution heat treatment is not performed on completed or partially-fabricated components. Rather, the extent of chromium carbide precipitation is controlled during all stages of fabrication as described below. , B. Material Inspection Program Extensive testing on stainless steel mockups, fabricated using production techniques, has been conducted to determine the effect of various welding procedures on the susceptibility of unstabilized 300 series stainless steels to sensitization-induced intergranular corrosion. Only those procedures and/or practices demonstrated not to produce a sensitized structure are used in the fabrication of RCPB components. The ASTM standard A 708 (Strauss Test) is the criterion used to determine susceptibility to intergranular corrosion. This test has shown excellent correlation with a form of localized corrosion peculiar to sensitized stainless steels. As such, ASTM A 708 is utilized as a go/no-go standard for acceptability. As a result of the above tests, a relationship was established between the carbon content of 304 stainless steel and weld heat input. This relationship is used to avoid weld heat-affected-zone sensitization as described l l below. l C.

Duplex, austenitic stainless steels containing more than 5FN delta ferrite (weld metal, cast metal, weld deposit L overlay), are not considered unstabilized since these alloys do not sensitize, that is form a continuous network of chromium-iron carbides.

This precipitate O) ( morphology precludes intergranular penetrations associated with sensitized Type 300 series stainless steels exposed to oxygenated or fluoride environments. D. Avoidance of Sensitization Exposure of unstabilized austenitic Type 300 series stainless steels to temperatures ranging from 800 to 1500'F will result in carbide precipitation. The degree of carbide precipitation, or sensitization, depends on the temperature, the time at that temperature, and the carbon content. Severe sensitization is defined as a continuous grain boundary chromium-iron carbide network. This condition induces susceptibility to intergranular corrosion in oxygenated aqueous environments, as well as those containing fluorides. Such a metallurgical structure will rapidly fail the Strauss Test ASTM A 708.

5.2.4 IN-SERVICE INSPECTION AND TESTING OF REACTOR COOLANT PRESBURE BOUNDARY 5.2.4.1 Accessibility of Inspection Areas Class 1 components and supports are designed to meet the acc6ss ' requirements of Section XI of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. I In the case of the reactor vessel, all internals except the flow l' baffle are removable. Their removal makes the entire inner surface of the vessel, as well as the weld zones of the internal load-carrying structural attachments, available for the surface and volumetric inspections. The closure head is available for ,
~
inspection whenever it is removed, and its removal also makes available the vessel closure flange, the flange to shell weld, closure stud holes and ligaments, and the closure studs and nuts. i Each control element drive mechanism is removable as a unit through a closure at the top of its housing. For interim inspections of the reactor vessel primary coolant nozzle to chell welds and inner radii, the two outlet nozzles are accessible from inside the reactor vessel without removal of the ! vessel internals. The inlet nozzles are accessible either from lB outside the vessel or from inside after removal of the vessel internals. Manways are provided for those inspections which must be made internally on the steam generators and pressurizer. Access holes are provided in the support skirt of the steam generators to allow examination of the tube sheet support stay cylinder welds. The steam generators are capable of being examined in accordance < with Regulatory Guide 1.83. , Amendment D 5.2-20 September 30, 1988 l
CESSAR nn"lCATION o V The reactor coolant pumps may be disassembled, if necessary, for ! inspection. Additional provisions for access, and details of the inservice inspection program are included in the site-specific SAR. lB 5.2.5 REACTOR COOLANT PRESSURE BOUNDARY (RCPB) LEAKAGE DETECTION SYSTEMS Means for the detection of leakage from the Reactor Coolant Pressure Boundary are provided to alert operators to the i existence of leakage above acceptable limits, which may indicate I an unsafe condition for the facility. The leakage detection systems are sufficiently diverse and sensitive to meet the criteria of Regulatory Guide 1.45 for leaks from identified and unidentified sources. See Section 5.1.4 for interface requirements. 5.2.5.1 Leakage Detection Methods i 5.2.5.1.1 Unidentified Leakage See site-specific SAR for details of determining unidentified B leakage. Interface requirements are contained in Section'5.1.4. l In addition to the methods for detecting unidentified leakage discussed in the site-specific SAR, amethodfordetectinglargelB volume leaks, which is available as an integral part of the RCS and CVCS, is the reactor coolant inventory method. Leakage from the Reactor Coolant System can be determined by net level changes ) in the pressurizer and in the volume control tank since the i' Reactor Coolant System and the Chemical and Volume Control System are closed systems. Since letdown flow and the reactor coolant j pump seal controlled bleedoff flow are collected and recycled back into the Reactor Coolant System by the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS), the net inventory in the Reactor Coolant System and CVCS under normal operating conditions will be i l constant. Transient changes in letdown flow rate or Reactor l Coolant System inventory can be accommodated by changes in the volume control tank level. Makeup flow rate provides a means of . detecting leakage from the Reactor Coolant System through I measurement of the net amount of makeup flow to the system. The net makeup to the system under no-leakage steady state conditions should be zero. The makeup ' flow rates and the integrated makeup flow rates from the Reactor Makeup System and the refueling water tank are continuously monitored and recorded. Analysis of the integrated makeup flow recorders ' over a period of steady state operation can provide detection of abnormal leakage. An O (d increasing trend in the amount of makeup required will indicate an abnormal leak which is increasing in rate. Leaks occurring i Amendment B 5.2-21 March 31, 1988 5 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _ _ _ _ _ . __ _ _ __-____-____U
CESSARnnL a O suddenly will be indicated by a step increase in the amount of makeup which does not decrease as would be the case for a purely transient condition. 5.2.5.1.2 Identified Leakage The amount of identified leakage from the Reactor Coolant System can be determined by adding up the amounts from all identified paths described below. Indicators and alarms associated with all of the identified leakage paths are provided in the control room. See Section 5.1.4 for interface requirements. 5.2.5.1.2.1 Safety Valves Located on the Reactor Coolant System The primary safety valves, located at the top of the pressurizer, are headered together and routed to the In-Containment Refueling Water Storage Tank (IRWST). Upstream of the headers, each safety valve is monitored for seal leakage by an in-line D Resistance-Temperature Detector (RTD). Indirect indication of code safety valve leakage a decrease in pressurizer pressure and pressurizer is provided level byas lE monitored by safety grade instrumentation. Positive indication of safety valve leakage will be provided in the control room. Monitoring will be provided by an Acoustic Leak Monitoring System ( ALMS) consisting of an accelerometer (acoustic sensor) mounted downstream of each valve. A plant D annunciator alarm will be provided to alarm if the valve is not fully closed. The ALMS is part of the NSSS Integrity Monitoring System (see Section 7.7 for a detailed description). 5.2.5.1.2.2 Reactor Coolant Pump Seals Instrumentation is provided to detect abnormal seal leakage. The reactor coolant pumps are equipped with two stages of seals plus i a vapor or backup seal as described in Section 5. 4.1. 2. During normal operation, the Reactor Coolant System operating pressure is decreased through the two seals to approximately CVCS volume control tank pressure. The vapor or backup seal prevents leakage to the containment atmosphere and allows sufficient pressure to be maintained to direct the controlled seal leakage to the volume control tank. The vapor or backup seal is designed to withstand full Reactor Coolant System pressure in the event of failure of any or all of the two primary seals. Since, in the event of the leakage into containment a flow condition would exist through the vapor seal, the pressure would > decrease downstream of the middle seal due to seal differential Amendment E 5.2-22 December 30, 1988

pressure. The reactor coolant pump seal pressure indicator would give this indication. The vapor seal pressure indicator would show a decrease in pressure and an increased level in the reactor drain tank would be indicated. Seal leakage through the tubes of the reactor coolant pump seal cooler to the Component Cooling Water System would be indicated by increased temperature of the component cooling water return line from the reactor coolant pumps, by increased level in; component cooling water surge tanks, l and by increased radiation; monitor readings in the Component ! Cooling System. l 5.2.5.1.3 Leakage Through Steam Gen 6rator Tubes or Tubesheet An increase in radioactivity indicated by condenser air removal system monitors and blowdown system monitors will indicate reactor coolant leakage through steam generators tubes to the secondary side. Routine analysis of steam generator water samples would also indicate increasing leakage of reactor coolant into the secondary system. 5.2.5.1.4 Leakage to Auxiliary Systems f% Chapter 11 describes the design basis for process monitors used in all potentially contaminated auxiliary systems and their sensitivity. i 5.2.5.2 Control Room Leakace Instrumentation Indication of safety valve leakage is provided by the Acoustic .' Leak Monitoring System (ALMS). The signal from the accelerometer sensor is monitored continuously, along with the RMS value of the signal computed. These signals are compared to a pre-established baseline value and alarmed in the main control room via the Nuplex 80+ Data Processing System (DPS) and Discrete Indication D and Alarm System (DIAS) displays (See Section 7.7). The site operator may provide other additional metheds for leak detection as input to DPS and DIAS. See the site-specific SAR for actual methods employed to provide control room indication of leakage to the containment.

Leakage lD into these systems will be monitored and detected by: (1) radioactivity monitoring of the flow streams in those systems; (2) level indicators in the surge or compensating tanks of those flow systems; or, (3) makeup flow and/or integrated makeup indicators in the Reactor Coolant System Makeup System portion of the Chemical and Volume control System (as described in Section 5.2.5.1).

The nondestructive examination requirements including calibration methods, instrumentation, sensitivity, reproducibility of data, and acceptance standacds are in accordance with requirements of the ASME B&PV Code, Section III. (See Table 5.2-1). Strict quality control is maintained in critical areas such as calibration of test instruments. All full-penetration, pressure-containing welds are 100% radiographer to the standards of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Weld preparation areas, back-chip areas, and final weld surfaces are magnetic-particle or i dye-penetrant examined. Other pressure-containing welds, such as l used for the attachments of nonferrous nickel-chromium-iron I mechanism housings, vents, and instrument housings to the reactor . t vessel and head, are inspected by liquid-penetrant tcsts of the root pass, the lesser of one-half of the thickness or each ' 1/2-inch of weld deposit, and the final surface. Additionally, the base metal weld preparation area is magnetic-particle examined prior to overlay with nickel-chromium-iron weld metal. All forgings are inspected by ultrasonic testing, using longitudinal beam techniques. In addition, ring forgings are tested using shear wave techniques. All carbon-steel and low alloy forgings and ferritic welds are also subjected to magnetic-particle examination after stress relief. All vessel bolting material receives ul'rasonic and I magnetic particle examination during the manufactuiAng process. The bolting material receives a straight-beam, radial-scan, ultrasonic examination with a search unit not exceeding i square-inch area. All hollow material receives a second ultrasonic examination using angle-beam, radial scan with a search unit not exceeding i square inch in area. A reference specimen of the same composition and thickness containing a notch (located on the inside surface) 1 inch in length and a depth of j 3% of nominal section thickness, or 3/8-inch, whichever is less, < is used for calibration. Use of these techniques ensures that no . materials that have unacceptable flaws, observable cracks, or l sharply defined linear defects are used. f i The magnetic-particle inspection is performed both before and after threading of the studs. 5.3-2

Surveillance test materials are prepared from the actual , materials used in fabricating the beltline region of the reactor 1 pressure vessel. The test materials are processed so that thuy l are representative of the materials in the completed reactor l vessel. Specimens are prepared from three metallurgically different materials, including base metal, weld metal and heat-affected zone (HAZ) material.

This standard reference material (SRM) is used as a monitor for Charpy impact tests, permitting comparisons among the irradiation data from operating power reactors and i experimental reactors. Compilation of data generated from post-irradiation tests of these correlation monitors will be carried out by the HSST program.

The data from tests of these specimens l' provide the basis for determining the neutron-induced property changes or the reactor vessel materials.

The I type and quantity of tests specimens provided for establishing the properties of irradiated materials over the lifetime of the vessel are presented in Table 5.3-3. Compact tension specimens provided for capsule irradiation are precracked prior to insertion to reduce the time required for post irradiation testing. The types and quantity of specimens provided exceed the p minimum requirements of ASTM E-185-82. I 1 Q 5.3.1.6.3 Surveillance Capsules The surveillance test specimens are placed in corrosion resistant capsule assemblies for protection from the primary coolant during irradiation. The capsules also serve to physically locate the test specimens in selected positions within the reactor vessel ; and to facilitate the removal of a desired quantity of test ' specimens when a specified radiation exposure has been attained. Six surveillance capsule assemblies are provided for the reactor vessel. Three of the capsule assemblies contain precracked Charpy test specimens (PC Capsule) and three capsule assemblies contain 1/2t compact tendion specimens (CT capsule). The type and quantity of specimens contained in each type of capsule E assembly is presented in Table 5.3-4. A, typical capsule assembly, illustrated in Figure 5.3-1, consists of a series of three specimen compartments, connected by wedge couplings, and a lock assembly. Each compartment enclosure of the capsule assembly is internally supported by the surveillance specimens and is externally pressure tested to 3125 psi during final fabrication. The wedge couplings also serve as end caps for the specimen compartments and position the compartments w3'.nin the capsule holders which are attached to the reactor vossel cladding. The lock assemblies fix the locations of the Amendment E 5.3-7 December 30, 1988
CESSAR nair"lCATION O capsules within the holders by exerting axial forces on the wedge coupling assemblies; this causes the wedges to exert horizontal ; forces against the sides of the holders preventing relative motion. The lock assemblies also serve as a point of attachment c for the tooling used to remove the capsules from the reactor. Each capsule assembly is made up of two Charpy, flux, compact tension compartment assemblies and one temperature, flux, E tensile, Charpy compartment assembly. Each capsule compartment is assigned a unique identification so that a complete record of test specimen and flux / temperature monitor (tensile-monitor) compartment. Each capsule compartment is assigned a unique identification so that a complete record of test specimen location within each compartment can be maintained. 5.3.1.6.3.1 Charpy, Flux and Compact Tension lE Compartment Assembly I This assembly (Figure 5.3-2) contains 15 impact test specimens and a set of five flux spectrum monitors in the top section. The . bottom section contains either 18 precracked Charpy test ! specimens or ten 1/2t compact tension specimens. The Charpy test p I specimens are arranged vertically in 1 x 3 arrays and are oriented with the notch toward the reactor core. The 1/2t 4 compact tension specimens are oriented so that the opening of the crack starter notch is facing the top of the compartment. This orientation will result in a neutron flux gradient parallel to the crack front. The temperature differential between the specimens and the reactor coolant is minimized by using spacers between the specimens and the compartment and by sealing both sections of the assembly in an atmosphere of helium. This quantity of specimens provides an adequate number of data points for establishing a Charpy impact energy transition curve for a given irradiated material. Comparison of the unirradiated and j irradiated Charpy impact energy transition curves permits i determination of the RT NDT changes due to irradiation for the I various materials. { 5.3.1.6.3.2 Temperature, Flux, Tensile and Charpy lE l Compartment Assembly l This assembly (Figure 5.3-3) contains 3 base metal (transverse) tensile test specimens and 12 impact test specimens in the top section. The tension specimens are placed in a housing machined I to fit the compartment. Split spacers are placed around the gage D length of the specimens to minimize the temperature differential between the specimen gage length and the coolant. The impact specimens are arranged vertically in 1 x 3 arrays and are oriented with the notch toward the reactor core. Spacers are utilized between the test specimens and the compartment.

In order to permit accurate i predictions of the RT of the vessel materials, complete i information on the n E ron flux energy spectra, and the irradiation temperature of the encapsulated specimens must be available. 5.3.1.6.4.1 Flux Measurements Fast neutron flux measurements are obtained by insertion of . threshold detectors into each of the six irradiation capsules. Such detectors are particularly suited for the proposed application, because their effective threshold energies lie - in the range of interest (0.5 to 15 MeV). V These neutron threshold detectors and the. thermal neutron ! detectors, presented in Table 5.3-5, can be used to monitor the i thermal and fast neutron spectra incident on the test specimens. These detectors possess reasonably long half-lives and activation cross sections covering the desired neutron energy range. Three sets ofEach assembly. flux spectrum monitors are includedain each capsule lD detector is placed j inside sheath which I ; identifies the material and facilitates handling. Cadmium covers are used for those materials (e.g., uranium, nickel, copper, cobalt and neptunium) which have competing neutron capture 3 activities. The flux monitors are placed in holes drilled in stainless steel housings as shown in Figure 5.3-3 at three axial locations in each capsule assembly (Figure 5.3-1) to provide an axial profile of the level of fluence which the specimens attain. In addition to these detectors, the program also includes correlation monitors (Charpy impact test specimens made from a ; reference heat of ASME SA-533 Grade .B Class 1, manganese-molybdenum-nickel steel) which are irradiated alonglD with the specimens made from reactor vessel materials.

These changes also provide data for correlating the , I results from this surveillance program with the results from experimental irradiations and other reactor surveillance programs using specimens of the same reference material. 5.3.1.6.4.2 Temperature Estimates Because the changes in mechanical and impact properties of irradiated specimens are highly dependent on the irradiation temperature, it is necessary to have knowledge of specimens as well as the pressure vessel. During irradiation, instrumented capsules are not practical for a surveillance program extending over the design lifetime of a power reactor. The maximum temperature of the irradiated specimens can be estimated with reasonable accuracy by including in the capsule assemblies small pieces of low melting point alloys or pure metals. The compositions of candidate materials with melting points in the operating range of power reactors are listed in Table 5.3-6. The monitors are selected to bracket the operating temperature of the reactor vessel. The temperature monitors concist of a helix of low melting alloy wire inside a sealed quartz tube. A stainless steel weight is provided to destroy the integrity of the wire when the melting point of the alloy is reached. The compositions and therefore the melting temperatures of the temperature monitors are differentiated by the physical lengths of the quartz tubes which contain the alloy wires. A set of temperature monitors is included in each capsule D assembly. The temperature monitors are placed in holes drilled in stainless steel housings as shown in Figure 5.3-3 and are also placed in three axial locations in each capsule assembly (Figure 5.3-1) to provide an axial profile of the maximum temperature to which the specimens are exposed. 5.3.1.6.5 Irradiation Locations The test specimens are enclosed within six capsule assemblies the axial positions of which are bisected by the midplane of the core. A summary of the specimens contained in each of these ; capsule assemblies is presented in Table 5.3-4. j i The test specimens contained in the capsule assemblies are used for monitoring the neutron-induced property changes of the reactor vessel materials. These capsules, therefore, are positioned near the inside wall of the reactor vessel so that the , irradiation conditions (fluence, flux spectrum, temperature) of the test irradiation specimens resemble as closely as possible the conditions of the reactor vessel. The neutron 8l W 3 Amendment D i 5.3-10 September 30, 1988

The capsule assemblies are placed in capsule holders positioned l circumferentially about the core at locations which include the ( regions of maximum flux. Figure 5.3-4 presents the typical exposure locations for the capsule assemblies. l All capsule assemblies are inserted into their respective capsule I holders during the final reactor assembly operation. l 5.3.1.6.6 Withdrawal Schedule The capsule assemblies remain within their holders until the specimens contained therein have been exposed to predetermined D , levels of fast neutron fluence. At that time, the capsule ' assembly is removed and the surveillance materials are evaluated. The capsule assembly removal schedule and the associated target fluence are presented in Table 5.3-7. . D ( Q The target fluence levels for the surveillance capsules are determined at the azimuthal locations for the recommended E ; withdrawal schedule of ASTM E-185-82, extended to a design life I of 60 years (48 EFPY).

" Effects of Residual Elements on Predicted Radiation Damage to Reactor Vessel Materials." Predicted changes in RT and upper shelf energy are used to select the surveillarbeT materials (Section 5.3.1.6.1) and to formulate the initial heatup and cooldown limit curves for plant operation.

C-E specifies the use of a manganese phosphate coating on threads of studs, nuts and washers to improve anti-galling properties and resistance to corrosion. In addition, Super Moly lubricant (containing molybdenum disulfide) is specified to be added' to threads and bearing surfaces at installation to further enhance ; anti-galling properties. Laboratory testing and field experience to date have shown no evidence of deleterious breakdown of either phosphate coating or lubricant. 5.3.2 PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE LIMITS All components in the Reactor Coolant System (RCS) are designed to withstand the effects of cyclic loads due to RCS temperature and pressure changes. These cyclic loads are introduced by normal unit load transients, reactor trips, and startup and shutdown operation. During unit startup and shutdown, the rates of temperature and pressure changes are limited by the Technical Specifications. The design number of cycles for heatup and cooldown is based on a rate of 100"F/hr. l The maximum allowable RCS pressure at the corresponding minimum allowabic temperature is based upon the stress limitations for brittle fracture. These limitations are derived using linear E l clastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) principles, the procedures i prescribed by Appendix G to Section III of the ASME Code, l

Based on considerations of existing l material property test data, an initial RTN fr the reactor l' vessel beltline material of -20*F is assumed.DTThe initial RT for the remaining material of the Reactor Coolant System of +1 b is also assumed. l As a- result of fast neutron irradiation in the region of the core, the RT of irradiated material will increase with l t operation. N techniques used to analytically and 1 I experimentally predict the integrated fast neutron (E 2 1 Mev) ! fluxes of the reactor vessel are described in Sections 5.3.1.4 I and 5.3.1.6. Analytical predictions of the shift in RT l reactor vessel beltline materials are based on the procedubI described in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.99. Based on these procedures, the maximum calculated shift (without any margin) in (g
'j the RT at 1/4t over a 60-year design life is 49'F. The total predicbd shift (calculated with a conservative margin of 50*F for the beltline forging) is 99'F. The corresponding RT shift value for the beltline girth seam weld is 88'T (38'F cbbulated shift plus a conservative margin of 50*F).
l The measured shift in RT for a sample is applied to the adjacent section of the reNNor vessel for later stages. in plant E life because the measured neutron spectra and flux at the samples and reactor vessel inside radius should be nearly identical. The measured shift in RT for a sample is adjusted for the difference in calculatNE' lux magnitudes between the sample and the point of interest In the reactor vessel wall. The maximum exposure to the reactor ve. .ael will be obtained from the measured l sample exposure by application of the calculated azimuthal neutron flux variation. The neutron fluence and the actual shift in RT will be established periodically during plant operation by te b[ng the reactor vessel surveillance material samples which are irradiated in holders secured to the inside wall of the reactor vessel as described in Section 5.3.1.6 and shown in Figure 5.3-4. Since the surveillance materials are irradiated l Very close to the vessel inside surface, the samples when tested will demonstrate the accuracy of the RT shift prediction as wellastheeffectofanyadditionallonkermagingphenomenon. l The pressure-temperature limits will then be adjusted n periodically, if necessary, to stay within allowable stress ( i limits during normal operation.

CESSAR MSinCATIEN O! ! Figures 5.3-Sa and 5.3-5b are typical examples of the intended l pressure-temperature limitations determined in accordance with ( Appendix G to 10 CFR 50 for normal operation of the Reactor j Coolant System. The P-T Limit curves are based on following: A. Minimum Boltup Temperature The minimum boltup temperature is principally governed by Appendix G to Section III of the ASME Code. The ASME Code 3 requires that when the flange and adjacent shell region are l stressed by the full bolt preload and by pressure not exceeding 20% of the preoperational system hydrostatic test - pressure, the minimum metal temperature in the stressed region must be at least the initial RT t plus any effects of irradiation. From the assumption thaF the initial RT for all regions of the RCS other than the beltline is +10 Y and that the flange and adjacent shell regions are not subjected to significant irradiation, the minimum boltup ! temperature per this requirement is +10*F. Based on considerations of typical refueling water temperatures, ; however, the minimum boltup temperature is taken to be 60*F. B. Maximum Pressure Below Lowest Service Temperature et d The maximum allowable pressure below the lowest service temperature is defined by paragraph NB-2332, Section III of E the ASME Code, to be 20% of the preoperational hydrostatic test pressure. This test pressure is 125% of the design pressure (2500 psia), or 3125 psia, and 20% of this value is i 625 psia. Therefore, the maximum pressure below the lowest service temperature is 625 psia (actual fluid pressure at the inside surface of the beltline) . C. Lowest Service Temperature The lowest service temperature (LST) is defined by paragraph NB-2332, Section III of the ASME Code, to be the minimum , allowable temperature at pressures above 20% of the l preoperational hydrostatic test pressure. This value is l defined to be no lower than RTI + 100*F, where the RT is considered to be for the mos@ limiting component in b$ RCS other than the beltline. From the assumption that the initial RT for all regions of the RCS other than the beltline ibN10*F, the LST per this requirement is 10*F + 100*F = +110*F. , I Amendment E I 5.3-14 December 30, 1988 [ J l

- 1. Reactor Vessel ~ Beltline P-T Limits for the reactor vessel beltline are exanined for heatup and cooldown conditions. For the heatup analysis, both the 1/4t and 3/4t locations are examined. For heatup, the thermal stresses, o , are ->
compressive at the inside surface and tensile bt the outside surface. The membrane stresses due to pressure, o are always tensile, but more so at the inside than*,outside surface. As a result, the total stress will always be greater at the outside than the , inside surface. However, the . maximum allowable I stresses, taking into account irradiation effects, will decrease more at the inside than outside surface because the effects of irradiation are more pronounced there. Which surface stresses will. approach this maximum first is not always clear and is a function of several variables. Therefore, both ' locations are examined for the heatup transient. For the cooldown analysis, only the 1/4t location needs (' to be examined. During cooldown, the thermal stresses are tensile at the inside surface and compressive at i the outside. Again, membrane stresses due to pressure ! are always positive. As a result, the total stress l will always be greater at the inside than the outside surface. Since the maximum allowable stresses, taking into account irradiation effects, will decrease more at , the inside than outside surface, it is clear that the ! total stress at the inside surface will approach the i maximum allowable before those at the outside surface. { Therefore, only the 1/4t location needs to be examined for the cooldown transient. E Heatup and cooldown rates from O'F/hr (" Isothermal" pressurization) to the design limit of 100'F/hr at 10

CESSAREnnnem O 5.3.3 REACTOR VESSEL INTEGRITY C-E designs reactor pressure vessels and specifies corresponding E fabrication methods. C-E has been involved in reactor vessel design and fabrication since the late 1950s, and this proven ! expertise is reflected in the System 80+ reactor vessel and the D satisfactory performance of large numbers of reactor vessels in operating plants. j Vessel integrity is ensured because proven fabrication techniques are employed and because weil characterized steels, which exhibit uniform properties and consistent behavior, are used. The characterization of these materials was established through industrial and governmental studies which examined the prefabrication material properties through to irradiated service operation. Inservice inspection and material surveillance programs are also conducted during the service life of the vessel, which further ensure that vessel integrity is maintained. 5.3.3.1 DesiQn Applicable design codes are found in Table 5.2-1. A schematic of ; the reactor vessel is shown in Figure 5.3-5. information on design may be found in Section 5.3.1.2. Additional lD ( The design permits all required inspections to be performed, and does not preclude access to areas requiring inservice inspection. 5.3.3.2 Materials of Construction The materials used in the construction of the reactor vessel, as listed in Table 5.2-2, are in accordance with Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. 5.3.3.3 Fabrication Methods Fabrication of the reactor vessel is described in Section

A low limit on reactor coolant pump flow rate (i.e., design flow) is established to assure that Specified Acceptable Fuel Design Limits (SAFDLs) are not exceeded. Design flow is derived on the basis of the thermal-hydraulic considerations presented in Section 5.2. The reactor coolant pump and motor assembly in conjunction with the flywheel, provide sufficient coastdown flow following loss of . power to the pumps to assure adequate core cooling. 1 The reactor coolant pump pressure boundary is designed for the transients given in Section 3.9 so that the ASME Code Section III allowable stress limits are not exceeded for the specified number of cycles. Stress criteria concerning earthquake and pipe rupture conditions are presented in Section 3.9.3. m (L The design overspeed of the reactor coolant pump is 125 percent of normal speed. 5.4.1.1 Pump Flywheel Intecrity A. The material used to manufacture the flywheel of the reactor coolant pump motor will be produced by a commercially acceptable process that minimizes flaws, such as the vacuum melt and degassing process. This provides adequate fracture toughness properties under reactor operating conditions. The acceptance criteria for flywheel design will be compatible with the safety philosophy of the Pressure Vessel Research Committee (PVRC) of the Welding Research Council D (WRC) primary coolant pressure boundary criteria as appropriate considering the inherent design and functional requirement differences between the pressure boundary and the flywheel. 1
- 1. The reference nil-ductility transition temperature I (RT ) of the material, as determined per ASME Code D NB- N 1(a), will be no greater than 10'F.
- 2. The Charpy V-notch (Cv) upper shelf energy level, in the " weak" (Wr) direction, as obtained per ASTM-A-370 will be no less than 50 ft-lb. A minimum of three Cv specimens will be tested from each plate or forging.

- 3. The minimum fracture toughness of the material at the normal operating temperature of the flywheel will be equivalent to a dynamic stress intensity factor (K dynamic) of at least 100 ksi/in. Compliance will N demonstrated by either of the following:
- a. Testing of the actual material of the flywhed to establish the K d value at the normal operating temperhur(e,ynamic) or !
- b. Use of a lower bound fracture toughness curve obtained from tests on the same type of material.
The curve will be translated along the temperature coordinate until the KI (dynamic) value of 45 ! ksi/in. is indicated at khe NDT of the material, as obtained from drop-weight tests.
- 4. Each finished flywheel will be subjected to a 100 percent volumetric ultrasonic inspection from the flat surface per ASME BPVC Section III.
This inspection will be performed on the flywheel after final machining and the overspeed test.
- 5. If the flywheel is flame cut, at least 1/2 inch of '
stock will be left on the outer and bore radii, for machining to final dimensions. 4
- 6. 'Ihe flywheel will be subjected to a magnetic particle or liquid-penetrant examination per "Section III" before final assembly. The inspection will be !
performed on finished machined bores, keyways, and on both flat surfaces to a radial distance of 8 inches minimum beyond the final largest machined bore diameter but not including small drilled holes. There will be i no stress concentrations such as stamp marks, center punch marks, or drilled or tapped holes within 8 inches of the edge of the largest flywheel bore. t B. The flywheels will be designed to withstand normal operating conditions, anticipated transients, and the largest mechanistic pipe break size remaining after application of D leak before break as described in Section 3.6, combined with i the Safe Shutdown Earthquake. The following criteria will be satisfied: j
- 1. The combined stress, both centrifugal and interference, !
at normal operating speed will not exceed one-third of the minimum specified yield strength for the material selected in the direction of maximum stress. Amendment D 5.4-2 September 30, 1988 i

- 2. The design speed of the flywheel will be 125 percent of normal operating speed.
The lowest of the critical speeds of the flywheel will ~ be at least 10% above the highest anticipated overspeed-of the pump. .The highest: anticipated . overspeed is predicted for the largest break size remaining .after application. of leak before break as described in D Section 3.6. 3.' The combined centrifugal and interference stresses at the design speed will be . limited to two-thirds of the minimum specified yield strength. Design' speed' is defined as 125 percent.of normal operating' speed.
- 4. The motor and pump shaft or bearings and coupling will withstand any combination of normal operating loads or.
anticipated transients, and the largest remaining pipe break after application of leak before. break as D described in Section 3.6, combined with the Safe Earthquake Shutdown. Each flywheel will be tested'at design speed, 125 percent of normal operating speed, as defined in B.2 above. The flywheel will be accessible for 100 percent in-place-volumetric ultrasonic inspection. The flywheel-motor assembly is designed to allow such inspection with a minimum j of motor disassemb f. 1 5.4.1.2 Description i Table 5.4.1-1 lists the principal parameters of the reactor ) coolant pumps and Figure 5.4.1-l ' depicts the arrangement of the - pump and motor. Reactor coolant pump supports are discussed in Section 5.4.14. The pump piping and instrument diagram is given in Figure 5.1,2-2. The four reactor coolant pumps are vertical, single' stage bottom suction, horizontal discharge, motor-driven centrifugal pumps. i The pump impeller is keyed and locked'to.its shaft. Pump shaft alignment is maintained by a water lubricated radial bearing within the pump and by radial and thrust bearings located in the ! motor stand. The pump and motor shafts are directly. connected by ! a coupling. L The shaft eeal assembly consists of two face-type, mechanical f seals in eeries, with controlled leakage bypass-to. provide the i same pressure differential

CESSAR MMICATION O control tank pressure. A third, face-type, low-pressure vapor seal at the top is designed to withstand system operating pressure when the pumps are not operating. The leakage past the second pressure seal and the controlled leakage is piped to the volume control tank in the Chemical and Volume Control System. Leakage past the low pressure vapor seal is collected and piped to the reactor drain tank. The temperature of the water in the seal assembly is maintained within acceptable limits by a water-cooled heat exchanger. Water is also injected into the seal area from an external seal injection system. The performance of the shaft seal system is monitored by pressure and temperature sensing devices in the seal system. The seal assembly can be replaced without draining the pump casing or removing the shaft. The seal assemblies are designed to limit seal leakage plus controlled bypass flow to approximately the values given below: Seal leakage plus controlled bypass flow, per pump: All seals functioning (normal) 3.9 gpm one seal functioning (abnormal) 5.4 gpm The motor is sized for continuous operation at the flows resulting from four-pump or one-pump operation with 1.0 to 0.74 specific gravity water. The motors are designed to start and accelerate to speed under full load with a drop to 80 percent of normal rated voltage at the motor terminals. Each motor is provided with an anti-reverse rotation device. The , device is designed to prevent impeller rotation in the reverse j direction due to each of the following conditions: motor' I starting torque, if the motor was incorrectly wired for reverse rotation; and, reactor coolant flow through the pump in the reverse direction due to the largest remaining pipe break after application of leak before break as described in Section 3.6, D which could result in reverse flow through the pump. 5.4.1.3 Evaluation The reactor coolant pumps are sized to deliver flow that equals or exceeds the design flow rate utilized in the thermal hydraulic analysis of the Reactor Coolant System. Analysis of steady-state and anticipated transients is performed assuming the minimum design flow rate. Tests are performed to evaluate reactor coolant pump performance during the post-core load hot functional testing to verify adequate flow. Leakage from the pump via the pump shaft is controlled by the shaft seal assembly. Reactor coolant entering the seal chambers Amendment D i 5.4-4 September 30, 1988

The design speed of the flywheel is 125 percent of normal speed. l An overspeed test of each flywheel at the design speed is performed prior to assembly. Refer to pump flywheel integrity Section 5.4.1.1. In the event of a break which is not eliminated by leak before break which would result in reverse flow thrcugh the pump, the D anti-reverse rotation device prevents impeller rotation in the i reverse direction. In the event of a break which is not eliminated by laak before break and which could result in D increased flow through the pump tending to accelerate the pump impeller,the highest predicted pipe break induced overspeed is lD less than the lowest critical speed of the flywheel. l The pump and motor oil lubricated bearings are lubricated by j internal oil systems. Each bearing assembly has its own internal { oil system consisting of either an oil bath or force-feed type j system. During normal operation, no external pumps will be required because pumping action is accomplished by internal f_} pumping devices. Lubricating oil is cooled by cooling coils () submerged in the oil sumps. Both sumps and cooling coils are internal to the motor otructural frame and are designed for , Seismic Category I operation, and use the intent of the ASME j Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III, Class 3 as a guide for design and construction. This is established within the ! Combustion Engineering Topical Report, CENPD-201-A, which demonstrates the reactor coolant pump performance during a loss of component cooling water incident. Although the pump-motor , assembly operation is not considered necessary for plant safety, J this design minimizes the direct effects of seismic events on the l reactor coolant pump and motor assembly oil lubricating systems so that adequate coast down characteristics are not detrimentally affected. Bearing metal temperatures, oil flow and/or pressure, oil levels, l cooling water flow and/or pressure are continuously monitored and i alarmed in the control room. . In the unlikely event that component cooling water to the reactor coolant pump and motor oil lubricating systems is not available or that an oil leak occurs during operation, the operator is alerted as soon as cooling water to the oil system is lost and has a time period of at least 30 minutes in which to reduce power, if necessary, and isolate cooling water and shut the reactor coolant pump motor assembly down to prevent bearing (A} v seizure. Amendment D 5.4-5 September 30, 1988
CESSAR 8! Enc-0 1 This time limit is established in the Topical Report CENPD-201-A. 1 I Combustion Engineering will perform a test to verify the analysis in Appendix A. The component cooling water will be secured to the pump lubrication oil sumps and data taken so as to demonstrate the heat up rate of the oil sump up to a maximum sump temperature of 200*F. A test securing cooling water to the pump seals will also be performed to demonstrate the seals operability as detailed in Combustion Engineering Topical Report CENPD-201-A. In the remote possibility of a simultaneous loss of component cooling water to all reactor coolant pump motor assemblies, 30 minutes is adequate to secure the plant and maintain the normal coast down capabilities of the reactor coolant pump motor assemblies. During a loss of component cooling water event, it is unlikely that a shaft seizure due to bearing failure will occur for the following reasons: A. The design is such that the heat generated in the bearing normally carried away by the cooling water, is transferred by alternate paths. The lube oil sump baths surrounding the bearings, the stagnant cooling water remaining in the heat exchanger coils, and the bearing and sump assembly metal masses, all act as heat sinks. Also conduction down the pump shaft and outer sump shell radiation help to reduce the temperature rise. B. The rotation of the bearing assemblies insures adequate oil flow and mixing of heated oil to insure the heat transfer as described in A. C. In the event that the oil temperature rises such that the viscosity degrades significantly, the design of the thrust bearing continues to produce a hydrodynamic film so as to preclude metal to metal contact. D. Operation and test experience has demonstrated that the reactor coolant pump motor assembly will operate without cooling water to the lubricating oil system for at least the calculated 30 minute time period. Should an oil leak occur, redundant instrumentation will alert the operator to shut down the reactor coolant pump motor assembly and thereby avoid bearing damage. In the event of an oil leak, the separation of lubrication systems would limit the problem to a single reactor coolant pump. j 1 0 5.4-6 4
CESSAR Ennricarieu n V The loss of the oil in the bearing oil reservoir would not result in bearing seizure for the following reasons: A. Temperature and oil level monitors will provide appropriate indication of an abnormal condition. B. The vibration monitoring device furnished on the pump will respond to bearing degradation and allow the operator to shutdown the pump. , I C. If the above protective measures fail, the high torque 1 produced by the motor will cause a slow breakdown of the bearings and not a rapid shaft seizure. Industry experience indicates that the babbitt bearing surfaces . wear away and the bearing pads and sleeves will be badly worn but the , shaft will continue to rotate. 1 1 If the extremely remote possibility of bearing seizure occurs l while the reactor coolant pump motor assembly is in operation, adequate flow to the core is available from the other reactor coolant pump motor assemblies as demonstrated by the one pump loss of flow study. ['N Figure 5.1.2-2 shows a separate oil lift system which is required (
'v) for start-up of the pump assembly. The oil lift system furnishes high pressure oil to the pump assembly thrust bearings, thereby lifting the rotor and reducing bearing friction during pump start-up. Interlocking devices are furnished which prevent pump start-up until oil lift flow is established. The oli lift system is automatically shutdown when the pump reaches full speed.
Since oil lift is not required during normal operation, an oil ; leak in this system will not cause a bearing failure. 5.4.1.4 Tests and Inspections The reactor coolant pump pressure boundary is nondestructively inspected as required by ASME Section III for Class 1 components. The pump casing inspections include complete radiography and l liquid penetrant or ultrasonic testing. The pump receives a hydrostatic pressure test in the vendor's shop and with the Reactor Coolant System. Inservice inspection of the pump pressure boundary will be performed during plant life in accordance with ASME Section XI. The pump assembly is performance tested in the vendor's shop over at least the normal operating range in accordance with the Standards of the Hydraulic Institute. The tests also demonstrate ability of the pumps to function under the various operating conditions specified. Tests commonly performed are hot and cold 5.4-7

Vibrations are monitored at several places on the pump during shop testing. In addition to meeting an absolute criterion for vibration amplitude, the test results are examined for evidence of critical speed problems. The pump motors undergo a " routine" test in accordance with NEMA MG-1. This test also confirms that the motors are within their vibration limits. At least one motor is tested by being used as the driver for the pump assemblies, during the pump manufacturer's shop testing. The following testing may also be performed where significant seal experience is lacking to develop confidence in the sealing system; o Seal materials testing for suitability in reactor coolant environment. o Long term testing of an entire seal assembly. To the greatest extent practicable, all conditions of operation 9,f within the reactor coolant pump will be duplicated.

CESSARin&%. , V(D 5.4.2 STEAM GENERATORS 5.4.2.1 Desian Bases The two steam generators are designed to transfer 3817 MWt from thg RCS to the secondary system, producing approximately 17.12 x 10 lb/hr of 1000. psia saturated steam, when provided with 450*F lB feedwater. Moisture separators and steam driers in the shell side of the steam generator limit the moisture content of the steam to 0.25 wt% during normal operation at full power. The steam generator design parameters are listed in Table 5.4.2-1. l The steam generators, including the tubes, are designed for the l RCS transients listed in Section 3.9.1 so that the code allowable i stress limits are not exceeded for the specified number of j cycles. All transients have been established based on conservative assumptions of operating conditions in consideration ; of supportive system design capabilities. The steam generators ! will be capable of sustaining the following additional design transients without exceeding code allowable stress limits: A. Fif teen secondary side hydrostatic tests with secondary side lB pressurized to 1-1/4 times the design pressure and the J g primary side pressurized so that the tube differential ) ! t < pressure does not exceed 820 psid (test condition) ; l V - l B. Three hundred secondary side leak tests with the secondary lB ) side pressurized from 820 psia to design pressure, with the primary side pressurized so that tube differential pressure (secondary to primary) does not exceed 820 psid (test condition); C. Less than ten thousand cycles of adding 40*F feedwater at 800 gpm to the steam generator through the downcomerl0 feedwater nozzle when at hot standby conditions (normal condition); D. Seven hundred and fifty cycles of adding 40*F feedwater at 800 gpm to the steam generator through the .i downcomer lD feedwater nozzle during loading conditions (normal l condition); ) E. Seven hundred and fifty cycles of adding 100*F feedwater at 800 gpm to the steam generator through the. downcomer lD feedwater nozzle during loading conditions (normal condition); F. Seven cycles of adding 40*F feedwater at 800 gpm to thelD steam generator through the downcomer feedwater nozzles B Amendment D 5.4-9 September 30, 1988
CESSAREHWnc-O\ during a steam line break. This provides for one steam line break incident with the emergency feedwater cycled a maximum of seven times (faulted condition); G. Four hundred and twenty cycles of adding 40*F feedwater at lB 850 gpm to the steam generator through the downcomer lE feedwater nozzles with the flow initiated 30 seconds after a loss of normal feedwater. This provides for 60 loss of normal feedwater incidento with the emergency feedwater lB cycled a maximum of seven times (upset condition) ; H. Six thousand pressure transients of 85 psi across the lB primary divider plate in either direction caused by starting and stopping reactor coolant pumps (normal condition). The steam generator was designed to ensure that critical vibration frequencies are well out of the range expected during normal operation and during abnormal conditions. The tubing and tubing supports are designed and fabricated with considerations given to both secondary side flow induced vibration and reactor coolant pump induced vibrations. In addition, the steam generator assemblies are designed to withstand the blowdown forces resulting from the severance of a steam nozzle. The steam generator assemblies are also designed to withstand the severance of any one of the feedwater nozzles. The two accidents are not considered simultaneously. The steam generator tubes are Ni-Cr-Fe alloy 690, 3/4-inch OD, with 0.042-inch nominal wall thickness. A steam generator tube rupture incident is a penetration of the barrier between the reactor coolant system and the main steam system. The integrity of this barrier is significant from the standpoint of radiological safety in that a leaking steam I generator tube allows the transfer of reactor coolant into the main steam system. Radioactivity contained in the reactor coolant would mix with water in the shell side of the affected steam generator. This radioactivity would be transported by steam to the turbine and then to the condenser, or directly to i the condenser via the Turbine Bypass System. Noncondencible I radioactive gases in the condenser are removed by the main condenser's evacuation system and discharged to the plant ventilation system. Experience with nuclear steam generators indicates that the probability of complete severance of a tube is remote. A double-ended rupture has never occurred in a steam generator of l this design. The more probable modes of failure, which result in smaller penetrations, are those involving the occurrence of Amendment E 5.4-10 December 30, 1988
CESSAReMecmu O pinholes or small cracks in the tubes, and of cracks in the seal welds between the tubes and tube sheet. Detection and control of steam generator tube leakage is described in Section 5.2. The concentration of radioactivity in the secondary side of the steam generators is dependent upon the concentration of radionuclides in the reactor coolant, the' primary-to-secondary leak rate, and the rate of steam generator blowdown. The expected specific activities in the secondary side of the steam generators during periods of normal operation are given in Section 11.2. The recirculation water within the steam generators will contain volatile additives.necessary for proper chemistry control. These and other chemistry considerations of the main steam system are discussed in Section 10.3.5. 5.4.2.2 Description The steam generator is illustrated in Figure 5.4.2-1. Moisture-separating equipment in the shell side of the steam generators limits moisture content of the exit steam. Manways 3 and handholes are provided for access to the steam generator internals. Reactor coolant enters at the bottom of each steam
) generator through the single inlet nozzle, flows through the U-tubes, and leaves through the two outlet nozzles. A vertical divider plate separates the inlet and outlet plenums in the lower head.
The steam generator with integral economizer is in most respects ! similar to earlier U-tube recirculating steam generators. The basic difference is that instead of introducing feedwater .only through a sparger ring to mix with the recirculating water flow in the downcomer channel, feedwater is also introduced ' into a separate, but integral section of the steam generator. A semi-cylindrical section of the tube bundle, at the cold leg or exit end of the U-tubes, is separated from the remainder of the tube bundle by vertical divider plates. Feedwater is introduced directly into this section and pre-heated before discharge into the evaporator section. l The lower portion of the evaporator section and the downcomer l channel occupy only one-half of the steam generator l cross-section. The effect of this non-symmetry is considered in calculation of recirculation ratio, internal flow considerations, and in design of tube support structures. 1 5.4-11
CESSAR n%ncarcu The steam-water mixture leaving the vertical U-tube heat transfer O surface enters the separators which impart a centrifugal motion to the mixture and separate the water particles from the steam. The water exits from the perforated separator housing and recirculates through the downcomer channel to repeat the cycle. Final drying of the steam is accomplished by passage of the steam through corrugated plate dryers. A recirculation system allows the circulation of water through the steem generator during wet lay-up and the addition of chemical cleaning agents. The recirculation system consists of a distribution ring locat6d above the tube bundic below the normal water level with connecting piping to the blowdown system. This piping requires a nozzle penetration through the pressure D boundary (shell). Suction is taken at the blowdown nozzle and recirculated through the distribution ring. The recirculating header can effect a rapid changeover of the steam generator inventory should a chemical intrusion occur requiring rapid removal of impurities. Primary head draining capability is provided by channel head drains. Tubesheet drains allows secondary side draining. Such drain capability enhance access for inspection and maintenance. The pressure drop from the steam generator feedwater nozzles to the steam outlet nozzle including the economizer is approximately 40 psi. The steam generator supports are described in Section 5.4.14. 5.4.2.3 Economizer Intecrity The economizer section is designed in full consideration of operating transients, startup and standby operation, and accident conditions such as loss of feedwater flow and feedwater line 1 break. The structural design of the various parts is adequate to withstand the thermal and pressure loadings from these various conditions, consistent with the appropriate load classifications and design rules in the ASME Code, Section III, see Appendix G. The components of the steam generator economizer section have , been designed for the primary stresses which occur due to the l blowdown associated with a feedline break. The divider plates, ' which separate the economizer region from the evaporator region of the secondary side, are supported from the vessel shell and the central cylindrical support welded to the tubesheet. This divider cylinder becomes an extension of the primary tubesheet stay cylinder, though less massive, and extends the full height of the economizer. The tube support / flow baffle plates are supported from the vessel shell, the divider cylinder and the Amendment D 5.4-12 September 30, 1988
CESSAR ME"icarian _ l I tubesheet via an array of support rods. The support rods, which l also serve as support plate spacers are solid and designed for either tensile or buckling loads. An effort has been made to avoid the use of thin plates which may collapse when subjected to differential pressure. 5.4.2.4 Steam Generator Materials I l The pressure boundary materials used in the construction of the l l steam generator are listed in Table 5.2-2. These materials are I in accordance with the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, I Section III. Code cases used in the fabrication of the steam generator are discussed in Section 5.2.1. The Class 1 components of the steam generator will meet the fracture toughness requirements of the ASME code. An additional discussion of fracture toughness testing is included in Section 5.2.3. Discussion of the techniques used to maintain cleanliness during final assembly and shipment are discussed in Section 5.2.3. Onsite cleaning and cleanliness control for the steam generator p is discussed in the site-specific SAR. lD l 5.4.2.4.1 Steam Generator Tubes l The method of fastening tubes to the tube sheet conforms with the requirements of Section III and IX of the ASME Code. Tube expansion into the tube sheet is total with no voids or crevices occurring along the length of the tube in the tube sheet. Localized corrosion of tubing material has led to steam generator tube leakage in some operating reactor plants. Examination of , tube defects that have resulted in leakage has shown that two l mechanisms are primarily responsible. These localized corrosion i mechanisms are referred to as (1) stress assisted caustic cracking, and (2) wastage or beavering. Both of these types of l corrosion have been related to steam generators that have , operated on phosphate chemistry. The caustic stress corrosion i type of failure is precluded by controlling bulk water chemistry to the specification limits shown in Section 10.3.4. Removal of solids from the secondary side of the steam generator is discussed in Section 10.4.8. Localized wastage or beavering has been eliminated by removing phosphates from the chemistry control program. Volatile chemistry (discussed in Section 10.3.4) has been O successfully used in all C-E steam generators that have gone into operation since 1972. Amendment D 5.4-13 September 30, 1988
CESSAR !!Einem:u O 5.4.2.5 Tests and Inspections Prior to, during and after fabrication of the steam generator, nondestructive tests based upon Section III of the ASME Code are performed. Initial hydrostatic tests of the primary and secondary sides of the steam generator were conducted in accordance with ASME Code, Section III. Leak tests were also performed. Following satisfactory performance of the hydrostatic tests, magnetic-particle inspections are made on all accessible welds.

The reactor : coolant loop piping is designed and analyzed for all transients specified in Section 3.9.1. In addition, those nozzles subjected to local thermal transients, caused by fluid entering the Reactor Coolant System from an auxiliary system, are analyzed to ensure that the nozzles can accommodate the additional transients. In addition to being specified as Seismic category I, the piping is designed to ensure that critical vibration frequencies are well out of the range expected during normal operation and during abnormal conditions. Additional presentations relating to seismic and dynamic analysis and criteria for the reactor coolant , piping is contained in Sections 3.7.2 and 3.9.2, respectively. l 5.4.3.2 p_e_gg. fiction Each of the two heat transfer loops contains five sections of ' pipe: one 42-in. internal diameter pipe between the reactor vessel outlet nozzle and steam generator inlet nozzle, two 20-in. internal diameter pipes from the steam generator's two outlet nozzles to the reactor coolant pumps suction nozzle, and two 4 30-in. internal diameter pipes from the pumps discharge nozzle to i the reactor vessel inlet nozzles. These pipes are referred to as the hot leg, the sur tion legs, and the cold legs, respectively. The other major pieces of reactor coolant piping are the surge line, a 12-in. pipe between the pressurizer and the hot leg, and i the spray line, a 4-inch pipe at the pressurizer end reduced to a i 3-inch pipe and connected to two (2) cold legs. The 42-in. and 30-in. pipe diameter are selected to obtain coolant velocities which provide a reasonable balance between erosion-corrosion, pressure drop, and system volume. The surge line is sized to limit the fr4 tional pressure loss through it during the maximum in-surge s; that the pressure differential between the pressurizer and tb heat transfer loops is no more than 5 percent of the system .4 sign pressure. The spray line sizing is discussed in Section 5.4.10. , To reduce the amount of field welding during plant fabrication, the 42-in, and 30-in. pipes are supplied in maj Ur pieces, complete with shop-installed instrumentation nozzles and connecting nozzles to the auxiliary systems.

The initial phase of a cooldown is accomplished by heat rejection from the Steam Generators (SG) to the condenser or atmosphere. After the reactor coolant temperature and pressure have been reduced to approximately 350*F and 400 psia, the SCS is put into operation to reduce the RCS temperature to the refueling temperature and to lC maintain this temperature during refueling. lC The SCS is used in addition to the SG atmospheric steam celease capability and the Emcrgency Feedwater System to cooldown d e RCS following a small break LOCA (see Section 6.3). The SCS would also be used subsequent to steam and feedline breaks, steam generator tube ruptures, and is used prior to RCP start to maintain flow through the core during plant startup. 5.4.7.1.2 Functional Design: Bases The following functional design bases apply to the Shutdown Cooling System: A. No single active failure prevents at least one complete train of the SCS from being brought on line from the control room, whether this is during normal plant cooldown or following a Design Basis Event. ! J B. The design bases defined in Section 5.4.7.1.1 are met assuming the failure of a single active component during shutdown cooling or a single active or limited leakage , passive failure of a component during long-term operations C ' (i.e., >24 hours) following a Design Basis Event. Limited leakage passive failure is defined based on maximum flow through a failed valve packing or pump (e.g., SCS pump mechanical seal). C. The SCS is designed such that the SCS pumps and containment spray pumps are functionally interchangeable. D. The SCS shall be designed for a nominal pressure of 900 psig and a temperature of 400*F.

CESSAREP4%ma I t V E. No single failure allows the SCS to be overpressurized by the RCS. SCS components whose design pressure is less than the RCS design pressure are provided with overpressure protection (see section 5.4.7.2.3). C 4 i F. The SCS reduces the Reactor Coolant System temperature as I' follows-l
- 1. Two Train Cooldown
- a. to 140*F - within 24 hours after reactor shutdown. C
- b. to 130*F -
by the time reactor vessel head stud detensioning operations are started (i.e., within approximately 40 hours).
- c. to 120*F - within 96 hours after reactor shutdown.
- 2. One Train Cooldown
- a. to 200*F - within 24 hours after reactor shutdown in conjunction with other heat removal systems (e.g., steam generator atmospheric dump valves).
Typical cooldown curves are shown in Figures 5.4.7-1 and 5.4.7-2. G. The components of the shutdown cooling system are designed in accordance with Section 5.4.7.2.4. H. Materials are selected to preclude system performance degradation due to the effects of short and long term corrosion. I. The SCS heat exchangere are sized to remove decay heat 96 hours after shutdown based upon a refueling water temperature of 120*F and a service water temperature of 95'F with an average reactor core burnup of two years.

The ; i pressure and temperature of the RCS system vary from 400 psia and 350*F at initiation of shutdown cooling to atmospheric pressure and 120'F at refueling conditions. SCS design parameters are lC given in Table 5.4.7-1. The SCS suction side pressure and temperature follow RCS conditions. The discharge side pressure is higher by an amount equal to the pump head and the temperature is lower at the shutdown cooling heat exchanger outlet. The SCS contains two heat exchangers and two pumps. One SCS pump is capable of meeting safety-grade cooldown criteria. Two SCS pumps are required to meet normal cooldown design criteria. C Amendment E ' 5.4-28 December 30, 1988
CESSAREnnncma o V During initial shutdown cooling, a portion of the reactor coolant flows out the SCS nozzles located on the reactor vessel outlet (hot leg) pipes and is circulated through the SCS heat exchangers by the SCS pumps. The return to the RCS is through SIS direct vessel injection (DVI) nozzles. C Shutdown cooling flow is measured by orifice meters installed in each train of the SCS discharge piping. The information provided l by these flow elements is used by the operator for flow control l during SCS operation. l The cooldown rate is controlled by adjusting flow through the heat exchangers with throttle valves on the discharge of each l heat exchanger. The operator maintains a constant total SCS-flow to the core by adjusting the heat exchanger bypass flow to compensate for changes in flow through the heat exchangers. 5.4.7.2.2 Component Description A. Shutdown Cooling Heat Exchangers The SCS heat exchangers are used to remove decay, sensible and SCS pump heat during cooldown, and decay and pump heat l C during cold shutdown. The units are sized to maintain a refueling water temperature of 120*F with the service water C temperature 95'F at 96 hours after shutdown following an assumed reactor core average burnup of two years. A l conservative fouling resistance is assumed, resulting in an additional area margin for the heat exchangers. SCS heat exchanger parameters are given in Table 5.4.7-1.

All actuator operated valves have stem leakage controlled by a double packing with a lantern ring leakoff connection. E. Shutdown Cooling System Pumps C The function of the SCS pumps is to provide flow through the reactor core and SCS heat exchangers for normal plant shutdown operation or as required for long term core cooling. ( 9 Amendment C 5.4-30 June 30, 1988 I
CESSARininc-t During normal operation the SCS pumps are isolated from the RCS by motor-operated valves. The shutdown cooling and containment spray functions have been evaluated to select a single pump to serve both functions. The flow available with a single SCS . pump is sufficient to both maintain an acceptable cooldown rate (75'F/hr maximum) during shutdown cooling operation and supply the CSS. l The design temperature for the SCS pumps is based upon the temperature of the reactor coolant at the initiation of shutdown cooling - (350
- F nominal) plus a design tolerance resulting in a design temperature of 400*F. The design pressure for the pumps is based upon the system functional I design pressure (see Section 5.4.7.1.2). ]
The SCS pumps are vertical, single-stage centrifugal units equipped with mechanical seals backed up by a bushing, with a leakoff to collect the leakage past the seals. The seals are designed for operation with a pumped fluid temperature of 400*F. The pump motors are specified to have the s capability of starting and accelerating the driven Os equipment, under load, to design point running speed within 5 seconds, based upon an initial voltage of 75% of the rated voltage at the motor terminals, and increasing linearly with C time to 90% voltage in the first 2 seconds, and increasing > to 100% voltage in the next 2 seconds. The pumps are provided with drain and flushing connections l to facilitate reduction of radiation levels before , maintenance. The pressure containing parts are fabricated I from stainless steel; the internals are selected for compatibility with boric acid solutions. The pumps are provided with minimum flow protection (recirculation lines) to prevent damage when starting against a closed system. The SCS pump data is provided in Table 5.4.7-1. During shutdown cooling, the pumps take suction from the reactor hot leg pipes and discharge through the SCS heat exchangers. The flow is then returned to the RCS through the SIS direct vessel injection nozzles. One SCS pump is aligned to each SCS heat exchanger. 5.4.7.2.3 Overpressure Prevention A. Overpressurization of the SCS by the RCS is prevented in the following ways:

The SCS is a Seismic Category I System. i 5.4.7.2.5 System Reliability Considerations The SCS is designed to perform its design function assuming a single failure, as described in Section 5.4.7.1.2. To assure availability of the SCS when required, redundant components and power supplies are utilized. The RCS can be brought to refueling temperature utilizing one of the two redundant SCS trains. However, with the design heat load, the cooldown would be considerably longer than the specified 96 hour lC time period. The SCS does not utilize any pneumatically operated valves. lC ! l The instrumentation, control, and electric equipment pertaining to the SCS is designed to applicable portions of IEEE ! 279, 308 and 603. Standards lC In addition to normal offsite power sources, physically and , electrically independent and redundant emergency _ power supply I systems are provided to power safety-related components. See j ' Chapter 8 for further information. Since the SCS is essential for a. safe (cold) shutdown of the reactor, it is a Seismic Category I system and designed to remain C functional in the event of a safe shutdown earthquake. For long-term performance of the SCS without degradation due to ! corrosion, only materials compatible with the pumped fluid are I used. l Environmental envelopes are specified for system components to l ensure acceptable performance in normal and applicable accident environments (see Section 3.11). In the event of a limited leakage passive failure in one train of the SCS, continued core cooling is provided by the unaffected independent SCS train. The limited leakage passive failure will be identified via appropriate leak detection provisions. (see Section 5.4.7.1.3.C.2). Make-up of the leakage is provided by C the manual alignment of the SIS to the IRWST or by opening the safety Injection Tank isolation valves.

The sump pumps in each room will handle expected amounts of leakage. If leakages are greater than the sump pump capacity, the room will be isolated. 5.4.7.2.6 Manual Actions A. Plant Cooldown Plant cooldown is the series of manual operations which bring the reactor from hot shutdown to cold shutdown. Cooldown to approximately 350*F is accomplished by releasing steam from the secondary side of the steam generators. When the RCS pressure falls below the normal operating range, thelC Safety Injection Actuation Signal (SIAS) setpoint can be manually decreased as discussed in Section 7.2.1.1.1.6. When RCS pressure reaches approximately 625 psig, the Safety Injection Tank pressure can be reduced to acceptable values. E When RCS pressure reaches approximately 400 psig, the Safety Injection Tank isolation valves are closed. - When RCS temperature and pressure decrease below 350*F and the maximum pressure for SCS operation, the SCS may be used. If the SCS suction relief valves are not aligned to the RCS l C before cold leg temperature is reduced to below the maximum RCS cold leg temperature requiring LTOP, an alarm will notify the operator to open the SCS isolation valves (SD-673, 672, 671, 670). The maximum temperature requiring lC LTOP is based upon the evaluation of the applicable P-T curves. This operator action requires that the RCS be depressurized to below the maximum pressure for SCS operation, in order to clear the permissive SCS interlock (see paragraph 5.4.7.2.3, item A.2). Interlocks associated with the six valves on the two SCS suction lines prevent overpressurization of the SCS. See Section 7.6 and 5.4.7.2.3 for details. Also, if SD-673 and 671 or SD-672 C and 670 SCS suction isolation valves are open and RCS f pressure exceeds the maximum pressure for SCS operation, an alarm will notify the operator that a pressurization transient is occurring during low temperature conditions. Shutdown cooling is initiated using the SCS pumps. The SCS C is warmed up and placed in operation as follows (refer to Figures 6.3.2-1A, 6.3-2-1B and 5.4.7-3): l l Amendment E 3 5.4-34 December 30, 1988

A maximum rate of cooldown (not to exceed 75'F/ hour) is maintained by adjusting the flow rate of reactor coolant through the SCS heat exchangers utilizing the SCS throttle valves on the discharge of the heat exchangers (SD-653*, 652) in conjunction with the SCS bypass flow control valves (SD-651*, 650). With the shutdown cooling flow indicators, the operator maintains a total shutdown cooling flow rate by adjusting the amount of coolant which bypasses the SCS heat exchangers. When the system is first put into operation, the temperature difference for heat transfer is large and only a portion of C l the total flow from the SCS pumps is diverted through the heat exchangers. As cooldown proceeds, the temperature differential decreases and the flow rate through the heat C exchangers is increased to maintain the maximum permissible cooldown rate. 1 l g

The SCS is used duringcoldshutdowntocontrolreactorcoolanttemperature.lC Prior to plant heatup, the SCS heat exchangers are bypassed to maintain flow through the core without the heat removal effect of the heat exchangers. Flow can be initiated to the heat exchangers if necessary to control the heatup rate. When the reactor coolant pumps can be run, the SCS pumps are C stopped and the system is isolated for the standby mode. C. Abnormal Operation
- 1. The SCS heat exchangers may be used to supplement the spent fuel pool cooling heat exchangers when more than one third of a spent core is stored in the spent fuel pool. Normally this would be done during refueling when both SCS heat exchangers are no longer needed to maintain reactor coolant at the refueling temperature.
The SCS would be aligned with one heat exchanger train lined up to the spent fuel pool cooling system and the other SCS heat exchanger train lined up for shutdown cooling of the RCS. The SCS heat exchanger train aligned to the spent fuel pool would be in a normal i shutdown cooling lineup for use of SCS pumps, exceptlC the pumps take a suction on the spent fuel pool vice the RCS, and the discharge of the shutdown cooling heat exchanger goes to the spent fuel pool, vice the RCS.

The normal two train cooldown curve is shown in Figure 5.4.7-1. i 'I l With the most limiting single active failure in the SCS, RCS l l temperature can be brought to 200*F within 24 hours following shutdown using one SCS pump and one Scs heat exchanger assuming C that the RCS pressure and temperature are reduced to SCS initiation conditions by other heat rejection means in 3.5 hours. The single train cooldown curve is shown in Figure 5.4.7-2. k l Amendment E 5.4-37 December 30, 1988

CESSAR EnWicarios O The SCS is designed utilizing a philosophy of total physical separation of redundant trains such that the syster can carry out its safety function assuming a single active failure during both normal and short-term post accident modes and a single active or passive failure during long-term post accident modes (i.e., time C periods >24 hr) after event initiation. Total train separation assures that a single failure in one train cannot preclude the second train from accomplishing its safety functions. A Failure Modes and Effects Analysis for the SCS is presented in Table 5.4.7-3. 5.4.7.4 Preoperational Testinq Preoperational tests are conducted to verify proper operation of the SCS. The preoperational tests include calibration of instrumentation, verification of adequate cooling flow, and verification of the operability of all associated valves. In addition, a preoperational hot functional performance test is made on the installed SCS heat exchangers as part of the precore hot functional test program. See Chapter 14 for further details on these tests. The SCS also undergoes a series of preoperational hydrostatic tests conducted in accordance with Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. O Amendment C 5.4-38 June 30, 1988

CESSAR HEnce,, i O 5.4.8 ' REACTOR COOLANT CLEANUP SYSTEM One function of the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS) is - to providt radiological and chemical cleanup of the Reactor ; Coolant System. A description of the CVCS is given in Section 9.3.4. Radiological considerations are described in Chapters 11 and 12. 5.4.9 MAIN STEAM LINE AND FEEDWATER PIPING j See Chapter 10. l lB 5.4.10 PRESSURIZER 5.4.10.1 Desian Bases The pressurizer is designed to: A. Maintain RCS operating pressure such that the minimum pressure during operating transients is above the setpoint 3 for the Safety Injection Actuation Signal and low pressure reactor trip, and such that the maximum pressure is below the high pressure reactor trip setpoint. B. Meet the design transients specified in Section 3.9.1 except that the maximum allowable rate of change in pressurizer temperature during plant heatup and cooldown is 200*F/hr. C. Provide sufficient water volume in the pressurizer to prevent uncovering the heaters as a result of a reactor B trip. D. Provide sufficient water volume to prevent pressurizer l heaters from being uncovered by the outsurge fcllowing step load decreases of 10% starting from 100% to 25% or a 5% per B l minute ramp decrease from 100% to 15%. l l E. Provide sufficient steam volume to avoid lifting the primary safety valves as a result of a loss of condenser vacuum (LOCV) event (normal control systems are operational). E F. Provide sufficient steam volume to allow acceptance of the insurge resulting from any loss of load transient without 3 liquid or two-phase flow reaching the primary safety valve nozzles. G. Minimize the total reactor coolant mass change and associated charging and letdown flow rates in order to reduce the quantity of wastes generated by load follow 1 operations. !

- 11. Provide sufficient pressurizer heater capacity to heat up the pressurizer, filled with water at the zero power level, at a rate that ensures a pressurizer temperature (and thus pressure) which will maintain an adequate degree of subcooling of the water in the reactor coolant loop as it is heated by core decay heat and/or pump work from the reactor coolant pumps.
I. Contain a total water volume that does not adversely affect the total mass and energy released to the containment during the maximum hypothetical accident. J. Ensure that, in addition to being specified as Seismic Category I, the pressurizer vessel, including heaters, baffles, and supports shall be designed such that no damage to the equipment is caused by the frequency ranges of 19-20 cps and 95-100 cps. The lower frequency is defined as for the reactor vessel. The design basis for the higher frequency consists of a pressure pulse of 5 psi which diminishes internally within the vessel. K. The combination of maximum heat loss from the pressurizer and the pressurizer heater capacity shall be such as to maintain the pressurizer at normal operating pressure during hot standby conditions. This capability shall be provided by redundant trains of heaters powered from off-site power and Class lE emergency power. L. The total spray flows shall be sufficient to keep the pressure below the reactor trip setpoint during an insurge of water during the " Maneuvering and Load Follow" and " Loss of Load" transients. E M. The pressurizer size and spray capacity shall be adequate so the pressurizer safety valves are not actuated by overpressure events initiated by normal operation transients. E 5.4.10.2 Depeript. ion the pressurizer, as shown in Figure 5.4.10-1, is a vertically mounted, bottom supported, cylindrical pressure vessel. Replaceable direct immersion electric heaters are vertically mounted in the bottom head. The pressurizer is furnished with nozzles for the spray, surge, and safety lines, and pressure and level instrumentation. A canway is provided in the top head for access for inspection of the pressurizer internals. The pressurizer surge line is connected to one of the reactor coolant hot legs and the spray lines are connected to two of the cold a legs at the reactor coolant pump discharge. Heaters are Amendment E 5.4-44 December 30, 1988
~ CESSAR E%ncari:n l supported inside the pressurizer to preclude damage from B vibration and seismic loadings. Principal design parameters are listed in Table 5.4.10-1. The pressurizer is designed and fabricated in accordance with the ASME Code listed in Table 5.2-1. The interior surface is clad with weld deposited stainless steel. j The total volume of the pressurizer is established by consideration of the factors given in Section 5.4.10.1. To ; account for these factors and to provide adequate margin at all ! power levels, the water level in the pressurizer is programmed as a function of average coolart . temperature as shown in Figure 5.4.10-2, in conjunction with Figure 5.4.10-3. High or low water level error signals result in the control actions shown in Figure 5.4.10-4. The pressurizer surge line is sized to accommodate the flow rates associated with the RCS expansion and contraction due ! to the transients specified in Section 3.9.1. j The pressurizer maintains Reactor Coolant System operating pressure and, in conjunction with the Chemical and Volume Control ] System (CVCS), Section 9.3.4, compensates for changes in reactor 1 coolant volume during load changes, heatup, and cooldown. During O full-power operation, the pressurizer is about one-half full of aaturated steam. Reactor Coolant System pressure may be controlled automatically or manually by maintaining the . temperature of the pressurizer fluid at the saturation i temperature corresponding to the desired system pressure. A ) small continuous spray flow is maintained to the pressurizer to I avoid stratification of pressurizer boron concentration and to maintain the temperature in the surge and spray lines, thereby reducing thermal shock as the spray control valves open. An auxiliary spray line is provided from the charging pumps to permit pressurizer spray during plant heatup, or to allow cooling if the reactor coolant pumps are shut down. During load changes, the pressurizer limits pressure variations caused by expansion or contraction of the reactor coolant. The average reactor coolant temperature is programmed to vary as a function of load as shown in Figure 5.4.10-3. A reduction in load is followed by a decrease in the average reactor coolant temperature to the programmed value for the lower power level. l The resulting contraction of the coolant lowers the pressurizer l water level, causing the reactor system pressure to decrease. Titis pressure reduction is partially compensated by flashing of pressurizer water into steam. All pressurizer heaters are j automatically energized on low system pressure, generating steam I and further limiting pressure decrease. Should the water level I in the pressurizer drop sufficiently below its setpoint, the letdown control valves close to a minimum value, and the charging fB Amendment B i 5.4-45 March 31, 1988 1
CESSAR ES's"icari:n ! l Oi flow control valve (s) open in the chemical and volume control B system are automatically controlled to add coolant to the system and restore pressurizer level. When steam demand is increased, the average reactor coolant temperature is raised in accordance with the coolant temperature program. The expanding coolant from the reactor coolant piping hot leg enters the bottom of the pressurizer through the surge line, compressing the steam and raising system pressure. The increase in pressure is moderated by the condensation of steam 1 during compression and by the decrease in bulk temperature in the ; liquid phase. Should the pressure increase be large enough, the pressurizer spray valves open, spraying coolant from the reactor coolant pump discharge (cold leg) into the pressurizer steam j space. The relatively cold spray water condenses some of the steam in the steam space, limiting the system pressure increase. The programmed pressurizer water level is a temperature dependent function. A high level error signal, produced by an in-surge, causes the letdown control valves to modulate open, releasing coolant to the chemical and volume control system, and the B charging flow control valve is closed to a minimum value, thus I restoring the pressurizer to the programmed level. Small I pressure and primary coolant volume variations are accommodated i J by the steam volume that absorbs flow into the pressurizer and by the water volume that allows flow out of the pressurizer. The pressurizer heaters are single unit, direct immersion heaters that protrude vertically into the pressurizer through sleeves welded in the lower head. Each heater is internally restrained from high amplitude vibrations and can be individually removed l for maintenance during plant shutdown. A number of the heaters are connected to proportional , controllers, which adjust the heat input to account for ! steady-state losses and to maintain the desired steam pressure in l the pressurizer. The remaining heaters are connected to on-off l controllers. These heaters are normally deenergized but are automatically turned on by a low pressurizer pressure signal or a j high level error signal. This latter feature is provided since i load increases result in an in-surge of relatively cold coolant i into the pressurizer, thereby decreasing the bulk water temperature. The CVCS acts to restore level, resulting in a transient pressure below normal operating pressure. To minimize i the extent of this transient, the backup heaters are energized, { contributing more heat to thu water. Backup heaters are 6 deenergized in the event of concurrent high-level error and high-pressurizer pressure signals. A low-low pressurizer water level signal deenergizes all heaters before they are uncovered to prevent heater damage. The pressure control program is shown in Figure 5.4.10-5.

CESSAR EHHncamn O 5.4.10.3 Evaluation i It is demonstrated by analysis in accordance with requirements for ASME Code, Section III, Class 1 vessels that the pressurizer is adequate for all normal operating and transient conditions expected during the life of the facility. Following completion of fabrication, the pressurizer is subjected to the required ASME i Code, Section III hydrostatic test and post-hydrostatic test non-destructive testing. l During hot functional testing, the transient performance of the pressurizer is checked by determining its normal heat losses and maximum depressurization rate. This information is used in setting the pressure controllers. Further assurance of the structural integrity of the pressurizer during plant life will be obtained from the inservice inspections performed in accordance with ASME Code, Section XI, and described in Section 5.2. Overpressure protection of the Reactor Coolant System is provided by four ASME Code spring-loaded safety valves. Refer to Section 5.4.12 and 5.4.13. 5.4.10.4 Tests and Inspections Prior to and during fabrication' of the pressurizer, non-destructive testing is performed in accordance with 'the requirements 'of Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Table 5.4.10-2 summarizes the pressurizer l inspection program, which also includes tests not required by the Code.

CESSARnahmu O 5.4.11 PRESSURIZER RELIEF TANK J l The in-containment refueling water storage tank (IRWST) is used h, I as the pressurizer relief tank. The design and description of this tank are given in Section 5.4.7. 5.4.12 VALVES 5.4.12.1 p_e s_i_gn Ba s i s The safety-related functions of valves within the reactor coolant pressure boundary are to act as pressure retaining vessels and leaktight barriers during normal plant operation, accidents and seismic disturbances. These valves are designed in accordance with ASME Code, Section III, Class I requirements and must withstand the effects of the system design transients (see Section 3.9.1) plus other transients associated with each valves location or service requirements. The valves meet Sciumic Category 1 requirements. Valve stem leakage control for reactor coolant pressure boundary valves is accomplished through the use of double packings with a leak-off connection at the lantern ring to provide for collection of leakage. Backseats are specified on manual and motor-operated gate and globe valves to further minimize potential leakage. Materials of construction are specified to assure compatibility with the environment and contained fluids. 5.4.12.2 Design Description All valves in the reactor coolant system are constructed primarily of stair.less steel. Other materials in contact with the coolant, such as hard facing and packing, are compatible materials. Fasteners, packing, gland aFsemblics, and yoke fanteners are constructed of stainless steel to eliminate corrosion problems. Valves not constructed with diaphragms, or bellows, or not normally backscated, are provided with two independent sets of packirg, separated by a lantern ring and leak-off connections piped to a collection system to eliminate uncontrolled leakage. 5.4.12.3 Design Evaluation All valves within the reactor coolant pressure boundary are stress analyzed in accordance with ASME Code, Section 11I, Cle.ss I, taking into consideration cyclic loadings. O Amendment E 5.4-48 December 30, 1988
CESSARnnac-O v 5.4.12.4 Tests and Inspections The valves are hydrostatically tested and leak tested across the seats and across the packing in accordance with the ASME B&PV Code as specified in Table 5.2-1. 5.4.13 SAFETY AND RELIEF VALVES 5.4.13.1 Desjon Basis l l The safety valves on the pressurizer are designed to protect the primary system, as required by the ASME D&PV Code, Section III. l0 The design basis for establishing the relieving capacity of the pressurizer safety valves is presented in Appendix 5A. For the postulated transients presented in Chapter 15, the results indicate that relieving capacity of the safety valves is sufficient to provide overpressure protection in accordance with Section III of the ASME Code. Safety valves on the steam side of each steam generator are designed to protect the steam system, as required by the ASME o Code, Section III. They are conservatively sized to pass a ( steady flow equivalent to the maximum expected power level at the design pressure of the steam system. 5.4.13.2 Description The RCS has four safety valves to provide overpresenre protection. A typical safety valve is illustrated in Figure 5.4.13-1. The design paraneters are given in Table 5.4.13-1. These valves are connected by piping to the top of the pressurizer. They are direct acting, spring-loaded safety valves meeting ASME Code requirements. They have an enclosed bonnet and have a balanced bellows to compensate for backpressure. The s'afety valves pass sufficient pressurizer steam to limit the Reactor Coolant System pressure to 110% of design pressure (2750 psia) following a complete loss of turbine generator load without simultaneous reactor trip. A delayed reactor trip is assumed on a high-pressurizer pressure signal. To determine maximum steam flow through the pressurizer safety valves, the main steam safety valves are assumed to be operational. Values for the system parameters, delay times, and core moderator coefficient are given in Chapter 15. Overpressure protection for the shell side of the steam generators and the main steam line up to the inlet of the turbine stop valve is provided by the secondary safety valves.

, Amendment D 5.4-49 September 30, 1988
CESSARE5a m i O These valves are each sized to pass a steam flow of 945,292 lb/hr ; at 1308 psia. This limits steam generator pressure to less than ! 110% of steam generator design pressure during worst case I transients. The secondary safety valves consist of two banks of j 10 valves with staggered set pressures. The valves are spring-loaded safety valves procured in accordar.ce with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III (see Table 5.2-1). l Parameters for the secondary safety valves are given in Table 4 5.4.13-2. 5.4.13.3 RyAluation overpressure protection is discussed in Section 5.2.2.

CESSAR 85L,.r 5.4.14 COMPONENT SUPPORTS 5.4.14.1 Desien Basis The criteria applied in the design of the Reactor Coolant System supports are that the specific function of the supported equipment be achieved during all normal, earthquake, safety valve ' actuation and Branch Line Pipe Break (BLPB) conditions. (BLPB includes feedwater line breaks and all loss-of-coolant-accident conditions resulting from breaks not eliminated by B leak-before-break analysis in piping to branch nozzles of the reactor coolant system.) Specifically, the supports are designed to support and restrain the Reactor Coolant System components under the combined Safe Shutdown Earthquake and Branch Line Pipe B Break loadings in accordance with the stress and deflection limits of Section III, ASME Code. 5.4.14.2 DescriDtien Figure 5.4.14-1 illustrates the Reactor Coolant System support points. A description of the supports for each supported component follows: A. Reactor Vessel Supports The reactor vessel is supported by four vertical columns located under the vessel inlet nozzles. These columns are designed to flex in the direction of horizontal thermal expansion and thus allow unrestrained heatup and cooldown. They also act as holddown devices for the vessel. Horizontal keyways located alongside the upper portion of the column guide the vessel during thermal expansion and contraction of the Reactor Coolant System and maintain the vessel centerline. Four horizontal keys are welded to the bottom vessel head. The column base plate ac'~ as a keyway for these keys to restrain the bottom of the vessel. The supports are designed to accept normal, seismic, and Branch Line Pipe Break loads. Irradiation effects are eddressed in the fracture mechanics analysis of columns, in combination with the design basis loads, D to ensure that structural integrity will be maintained. Reactor vessel supports are shown in Figure 5.4.14-2. Amendment D 5.4-51 September 30, 1988
CESSAR Enecm2 O B. Steam Generator Supports The steam generator is supported at the bottom by a sliding base bolted to an integrally attached conical skirt. The sliding base rests on low friction bearings which allow < unrestrained thermal expansion of the Reactor Coolant System. Two keyways within the sliding base mate with embedded keys to guide the movement of the steam generator during expansion and contraction of the Reactor Coolant ! System and limit movement of the bottom of the steam D generator during seismic events and Branch Line Pipe Breaks. A system of keys and snubbers located on the steam drum guide the top of the steam generator during expansion and contraction of the Reactor Coolant System and provide support during seismic events and following Branch Line Pipe D Breaks. Typical steam generator supports are shown in Figure 5.4.14-3. C. Reactor Coolant Dump Supports Each reactor coolant pump is provided with four vertical support columns, four horizontal support columns, and two horizontal snubbers. The rigid structural columns provide support for the pumps during normal operation, earthquake conditions, and Branch Line Pipe Breaks. An illustration of D the pump supports is shown in Figure 5.4.14-4. D. Pressurizer Supports The pressurizer is supported by a cylindrical skirt welded to the pressurizer and bolted to the support structure. The skirt is designed to withstand deadweight and normal operating loads as well as the loads due to earthquakes, safety valve actuation, and Branch Line Pipe Breaks. Four keys welded to the upper shell provide additional restraint for earthquake, safety valve actuation, and Branch Line Pipe D Break conditions. 5.4.14.3 Evaluation The structural integrity of the reactor coolant system support components is ensured by quality assurance inspections in accordance with Section III of the ASME Code during fabrication. The non-integral supports are procured by individual equipment specifications which impose appropriate quality assurance , requirements commensurate with the respective component's I functions. Amendment D 5.4-52 September 30, 1988 '
5'2" CESSAR "ERTIFICAT13N C V During pre-operational testing of the Reactor Coolant System, the support displacements will be monitored for concurrence with calculated displacements and/or clearances. Subsequent inspections of supports which are integral with Reactor Coolant System components will be in accordance with Section XI of the ASME Code. w l l 5.4-53
