Response

To improve Pressurizer level loep accuracy under loss of coolant accident (LOCA) conditions, the transmitter instrumentation was replaced in the 1995, Cycle 8 refueling outages. As part of the design change package for the instrument replacement, a new TLU was calculated using the transmitter performance specifications for the replacement transmitters.

The methodology used for both the original and the revised calculation was the same and in acc.ordance with the applicable revision to SCE Standard JS-123-103C which foilows ISA-S67.04 and Regulatory Guide 1.105. The SCE FLU Setpoint program and approach were reviewed and audited by the NRC in February, 1991.

If you have any further questions or need additional information on this subject, please let me know.

Dockct Nos. 50-361 and 50-362 Amendment Application Nos. 172 and 158 San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station Units 2 and 3 Enclosed are Amendment Application Nos.172 and 158 to Facility Operating Licenses NPF-10 and NPF-15, for the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, Units 2 and 3, respectively. These amendment applications consist of Proposed Change Number 470 (PCN-470).

PCN-470 is a request to revise Technical Specification 3.4.9, Pressurizer,.to reduce the allowable pressurizer water volume for pressurizer operability.

The associated Technical Specification Bases changer are included for information. The allowable water volume is also revised to a percent pressurizer level. This change is necessary to be consistent with a revised pressurizer level instrumentation Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU).

This. revised TLU was calculated as part of a program to evaluate instrument loop uncertainties for instruments used for Technical Specification surveillance.

As a result of this change in pressurizer level instrumentation TLU certain events described in Chapter 15 of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) were reanalyzed.

The results of the reanalysis of those events are also provided for information in the form of proposed UFSAR Chapter 15 changes.

To maintain conservative plant operation pressurizer level is administratively controlled to below 57% until the NRC approves this proposed change.

DESCRIPTION AND SAFETY ANALYSIS OF PROPOSED CHANGE NUMBER NPF-10/15-470 Proposed Change Number 470 is a request to revise Technical Specification (TS) 3.4.9, " Pressurizer," for San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS)

Units 2 and 3.

EXISTING TECNNICAL SPECIFICATI0NS'AND BASES Unit 2':

See Attachment 1 l

Unit 3:

See Attachment 2 j

PROPOSED TECNNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND BASES Unit 2:

See Attachment 3 Unit 3:

See Attachment 4 UPDATED FINAL SAFETY ANALYSIS REPORT (UFSAR) CHAPTER 15 SAFETY ANALYSIS Units 2 and 3 See Attachment 5 DESCRIPTION OF CHANGE This proposed change is a request to revise the allowed water level for l

pressurizer operability'in both the Technical Specification 3.4.9 Limiting Condition for Operation-(LCO) and Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.4.9.1.

The proposed allowed level for pressurizer operability is requested to be reduced to less than or equal to 57%. Technical Specification 3.4.9 currently requires the water volume to be less than or equal to 900 ft' (which is I

approximately 60% pressurizer level).

From certain safety analyses that were performed to support this reduction in pressurizer level it was determined that. operator action time needed to be reduced from 30 minutes to 15 minutes.to mitigate two types of events. These analyses are for Chemical Volume and Control System (CVCS) Malfunction and InadvertentEmergencyCoreCoolingSystem(ECCS)ActuationDuringPower Operation. The adequacy of 15 minutes operator action time has been demonstrated by SONGS operators.

Early operator recognition and actions to mitigate pressurizer overfill events within approximately 5 minutes have been demonstrated by operator response experience on the SONGS 2 and 3 simulator and also in actual plant operating conditions. Additionally, the availability of operator alarms and indications in the SONGS control room further support the adequacy of this reduced operator action time. Two other events in the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (UFSAR) Chapter 15 Safety Analyses take

credit for operator action in less than 30 minutes.

These events are Dropped Control Element Assembly (CEA) and Boron Dilution; both credit operation action to mitigate the event within 15 minutes.

For information only, Technical Specification Bases 3.4.9 is to be revised to reflect a less than or equal to 57% Pressurizer level and to correct the Background text by revising "2750 psig" to "2750 psia."

Also for information, this proposed change includes results of the reanalysis of certain UFSAR Chapter 15 safety analysis events that are sensitive to pressurizer level (See attachment 5).

DISCUSSION A.

Background

The control room indicated pressurizer level indication Total Loop Uncertainty (TLU) was recalculated as part of a Southern California Edison (SCE) program to evaluate instrument loop uncertainties in instruments used for Technical Specification Surveillance. This TLU calculation was performed using the current instrument accuracy calculation methodology developed by SCE as part of the TLU program. The recalculation yielded a control room indicated pressurizer level maximum TLU value of 3.9%.

Incorporation of this TLU value requires restricting Pressurizer Level to 57% (i.e., approximately 860 f t'),

which is less than the current Technical Specification 3.4.9 value of 900 ft'.

UFSAR Chapter 15 events that are sensitive to Pressurizer water volume were reanalyzed to accommodate the 3.9% TLU by assuming a bounding 4.0% TLU. The events are the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS) Malfunction with and without Concurrent Single Failure of an Active Component (UFSAR Sections 15.5.2.1 and 15.5.1.1), Inadvertent Operation of the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) during Power Operation (UFSAR Section 15.5.1.2), and Feedwater System Pipe Breaks (UFSAR Section 15.2.3.1).

Additionally, " Inadvertent Operation of the ECCS Ouring Power Operation was analyzed with concurrent single failure of an active component." The results of this analysis, which are bounded by the results of a Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS)

Malfunction, will be added to the UFSAR as Section 15.5.2.2.

t l !

l

k l

B.

Analyses The reanalysis of these events was performed using the approved CESEC-III computer code. The analytical value assumed for pressurizer level was 61%

(i.e., the proposed 57% Technical Specification value and up to 4.0% TLU).

The results.of the reanalyses are summarized as follows:

1.

UFSAR Section 15.5.1.1, Chemical and Volume Control System Malfunction Summary of Analysis The CVCS malfunction is classified as a moderate frequency event.

The initiating malfunction is a failure of the pressurizer level control system which could initiate operation of all 3 charging pumps and isolate letdown.

Depending on the failure mode the pressurizer level control system may not automatically terminate the event, so that operator action would be required.

Various pressurizer level and pressure control indications and alarms are available to alert the operator of the event.

Operator action within 15 minutes to correct the additional charging flow will terminate this event prior to filling the pressurizer. The operator action time for this event was previously 30 minutes.

In order to support a reduction of the operator action time required for this event from 30 minutes to 15 minutes SCE performed a simulation of this event on the Full Scope Simulator.

Operators recognized and 3

terminated this event on the Simulator in approximately 5 minutes.

J Operator simulator training and available alarms and indications in the control room support early operator recognition.

It is also important

. to note that the CVCS malfunction event occurred at SONGS Unit 3 on March 2, 1995.

For this case operator action was implemented within approximately 5 minutes which terminated the event, demonstrating that an operator response time of 15 minutes can be accommodated.

2.

UFSAR Section 15.5.2.1 Chemical and Volume Control System 3

Malfunction with a Concurrent Single Failure of an Active Component Summarv of Analysis The CVCS malfunction with a single failure is classified as an l

infrequent event. The results are similar to those discussed in Item 1 above with the exception of the single failure.

The worst case single 1 i i

l l

N________-_

e e

\\

failure postulated for this event is the loss of offsite power at the time of reactor trip. An operator action time of 15 minutes has been identified to mitigate the consequences of this event.

Based on the availability of operator alarms and indications and operator Simulator training, 15 minute operator action is sufficient to recognize and mitigate the inadvertent CVCS with single failure event.

3.

UFSAR Section 15.5.1.2, Inadvertent Operation of the ECCS During l

Power Operation Summary of Analysis l

An inadvertent operation of the ECCS is classified as a moderate i

L frequency event. The initiating cause is an unplanned increase in reactor coolant inventory due to operator error that erroneously g

actuates a safety injection actuation signal (SIAS).

The inadvertent SIAS activates all three charging pumps, isolates letdown flow, starts the boric acid makeup (BAMU) pumps, shifts charging pump suction to the highly borated BAMU tanks, starts the safety injection pumps, and isolates instrument air to containment. The boration causes a reduction in Reactor Coolant System (RCS) temperature and associated shrinkage in pressurizer liquid volume, which partially mitigates the excess charging i

fl ow. A reactor trip eventually occurs on high pressurizer pressure or on low steam generator pressure during the plant cooldown. As a result of the boration of the RCS, the consequences of this event are less 1

adverse than the CVCS malfunction event described in UFSAR Section 15.5.1.1 and there is at least as much time for operator action as in the CVCS malfunction event. Therefore, there is at least 15 minutes for the operator to correct the malfunction and prevent filling of the Pressurizer.

4.

UFSAR Section 15.5.2.2 Inadvertent Operation of the ECCS During Power Operation with a Concurrent Single Failure of an Active Component Summary of Analysis The inadvertent Operation of the ECCS with a single failure is classified as an infrequent event. The results are similar to those discussed in Item 3 above with the exception of the single failure.

The worst case single failure postulated for this event is the loss of offsite power at the time of reactor trip.

As a result of the boration of the RCS, there is at least as much time for operator action as in the CVCS malfunction with concurrent single failure event described in UFSAR section 15.5.2.1.

Therefore, there is at least 15 minutes for the operator to correct the malfunction and prevent filling of the Pressurizer.

5.

UFSAR Section 15.2.3.1, Feedwater System Pipe Breaks Summary of Analysis The feedwater system pipe break is classified as a limiting fault event.

The initiating event is a break in a pipe in the main feedwater system.

A rupture of a feed line will cause rapid reduction of the liquid inventory in the affected steam generator and therefore create a partial loss of the secondary heat sink. This leads to heatup of the RCS and an increase in RCS pressure. A reactor trip could occur through either a Low Steam Generator Water Level Trip, a Low Steam Generator Pressure Trip, or a High Pressurizer Pressure Trip.

Loss of non-emergency AC power was assumed at the time of reactor trip.

Operator action to mitigate the event is assumed to occur 30 minutes after initiation of the event. Peak RCS pressure will remain below the acceptance criteria of 120% of design pressure, and no water will be released through th'e pressurizer safety valves for the maximum RCS pressure case.

C.

Plant Operation Accounting for the pressurizer level control room indication TLU of 3.9%

(bounding safety-analysis value of 4.0%) in the Technical Specification effectively lowers the allowed pressurizer level for operability. Currently, the Technical Specifications specify a level for operation at less than or equal to 900 cubic feet (which corresponds to approximately 60% level).

With a TLV value of 4.0%, the Technical Specification control room indicator value needs to be reduced to 57% to be consistent with the safety analyses which were done at 61% pressurizer level. The normal full power pressurizer level for plant operation is approximately 53%. Administrative controls have been implemented to ensure that the pressurizer level does not exceed 57% during operation. SCE has determined that steady state pressurizer operation above 57% during power operation has not occurred. I

\\

SAFETY ANALYSIS 1.

Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No The limiting events impacted by this Technical Specification change have been reanalyzed. These events are the Chemical and Volume Control System (CVCS)' Malfunction and CVCS Malfunction With a Concurrent Single Failure of an Active Component, Inadvertent Operation of the Emergency Core Cooling System (ECCS) During Power Operation (Including Single Failure of an Active Component), and Feedwater System Pipe Breaks. The probability of these events is not changed by the restriction of the pressurizer level to 57%. An operator action time of 15 minutes has been identified for the CVCS malfunction and inadvertent ECCS operation events. Based on the availability of operator alarms and indications and operator Simulator training, 15 minute operator action is sufficient to recognize and mitigate the inadvertent CVCS or ECCS operation.

Therefore, this change will not involve an increase in the probability or consequences of any previously evaluated accident.

2.

Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed change create the possibility of new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated?

Response: No This amendment request does not involve any. change to plant equipment or operation. All the events identified in Chapter 15 of the Updated Final Safety Analysis Report (VFSAR) were evaluated to determine the impact of the change in pressurizer level.

In addition to the normally analyzed Inadvertent Operation of the ECCS During Power Operation event a concurrent single failure of an active component was considered in this evaluation. The analysis of this event with single failure of an active component produced consequences that are bounded by the CVCS malfunction with single failure of an active component. No new or different kind of accident will be created as a result of this Technical Specification change. Therefore, this' change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated. _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ -

3.

Will operation of the facility in accordance with this proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

1 l

Response: No This amendment request does not change the manner in which safety limits, limiting safety settings, or limiting conditions for operation are determined. There are no changes to the acceptance criteria for these events as a result of the proposed reduction in the maximum pressurizer water level. This change does not reduce a margin of safety since it lowers allowed pressurizer operational level to 57%, An operator action time of 15 minutes has been identified for the CVCS malfunction and inadvertent ECCS operation events. Based on the availability of operator alarms and indications, and demonstrated operator response in Simulator training,15 minute operator action has been demonstrated to be adequate to recognize and mitigate the inadvertent CVCS or ECCS operation.

Therefore, this proposed change does not involve a reduction in a margin of safety.

SAFETY AND SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS DETERMINATION Based on the above Safety Analysis, it is concluded that:

(1) the proposed change does not constitute a significant hazards consideration as defined by l

10 CFR 50.92 and (2) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by the proposed change. Moreover, because this action does not involve a significant hazards consideration, it will also not result in a cundition which significantly alters the impact of the station on the environment as described in the NRC Final Environmental

Pressurizer B 3.4.9 BASES BACKGROUND (Pressurizer safety valves) can control pressure by (continued) steam relief rather than water relief.

If the volume limits were exceeded prior 'to a transient that creates a large pressurizer insurge volume leading to water relief, the maximum RCS pressure might exceed the Safety Limit of 2750 psig.

The requirement to have two groups of pressurizer heaters ensures that RCS pressure can be maintained. The pressurizer heaters maintain RCS pressure to keep the reactor coolant subcooled.

Inability to control RCS pressure during natural circulation flow could result in loss of single phase flow and decreased capability to remove core decay heat.

APPLICABLE In MODES 1, 2, and 3, the LC0 requirement for a steam bubble SAFETY ANALYSES is reflected imolicitly in the accident analyses. No safety analyses are performed in lower MODES. All analyses performed from a critical reactor condition assume the existence of a steam bubble and saturated conditions in the.

pressurizer.

In making this assumption, the analyses naglect the small fraction of noncondensable gases normally present.

Safety analyses pres'ented in the UFSAR do not take credit for pressurizer heater operation; however, an implicit initial condition assumption of the safety analyses is that the RCS is operating at normal pressure.

Although the heaters are not specifically used in accident analysis, the need to maintain subcooling in the long term during loss of offsite power, as indicated in NUREG-0737 (Ref. 1), is the reason for their inclusion. The requirement for emergency power supplies is based on NUREG-0737 (Ref. 1). The intent is to keep the reactor coolant in a subcooled condition with natural circulation at hot, high pressure conditions for an undefined, but extended, time period after a loss of offsite power. While loss of offsite power is a coincident occurrence assumed in the accident analyses, maintaining hot, high pressure conditions over an extended time period is not evaluated in the accident analyses.

Limiting the maximum operating water volume preserves the steam space for pressure control. The LC0 has been established to minimize the consequences of potential overpressure transients.

Requiring the presence of a steam bubble is also consistent with analytical assumptions.

The LC0 requires two groups of OPERABLE pressurizer heaters, each with a capacity a 150 kW and capable of being powered from an emergency power supply.

The exact design value of 150 kW is derived from the use of three heaters rated at 50 kW each. The amount needed to maintain pressure is dependant on the ambient heat losses.

The minimum heater capacity required is sufficient to maintain the RCS near normal operating pressure when accounting for heat losses through the pressurizer insulation.

By maintaining the pressure near the operating conditions, a wide subcooling margin to saturation can be obtained in the loops.

15.2.3.1 Feedwater Svstem Pine Breaks 15.2.3.1.1 Identification of Causes and Frequency l

Classification The estimated frequency of a feedwater system pipe break classifies it as a limiting fault incident as defined in Reference 1 of section 15.0.

A feedwater system pipe break may occur due to a pipe failure in the main feedwater system.

15.2.3.1.2 Sequence of Events and Systems Operation A feedwater system pipe break may produce a total loss of normal feedwater and a blowdown of one steam generator.

If normal plant electrical power is lost, this superimposes a loss of primary coolant flow, turbine load, pressurizer pressure and level contro'1, and steam bypass control.

The culmination of these events is a rapid decrease in the heat transfer capability of both steam generators and eventual elimination of one steam generator's heat transfer capability.

The result is an RCS 1

heatup and pressurization.

The NSSS is protected during this transient by the pressurizer safety valves and the following reactor trips: (1) steam generator low water level, (2) steam generator low pressure, (3) high pressurizer pressure, (4) low DNBR and (5) high containment pressure.

Depending on the particular initial conditions, any one of these trips may terminate this transient 7EiTh5 NSSS is also protected by main steam isolation valves, the feedline check valves, the steam generator safety valves, and the auxiliary feedwater system which serve to maintain the integrity of the secondary heat sink following reactor trip.

In this analysis, however, the most adverse single active failure assumed is equivalent to the failure of the electric driven auxiliary feedwater pump associated with the intact steam generator.

The operator can initiate a controlled plant cool-down using the atmospheric steam dump valves any time after reactor. trip occurs.

The analysis presented herein conservatively assumes that operator action is delayed until 30 minutes after the first initiating event.

Using the core heat flux and core inlet conditions calculated by CESEC-III, the thermal margin on DNBR in the reactor core was simulated using the CETOP-D, the thermal margin on DNBR in the reactor core was simulated using the CETOP-D computer program described in section 15.0 with the CE-1 CHF correlation described in Chapter 4.

Blowdown of the steam generator nearest the feedwater line break was modeled assuming frictionless critical flow calculated by the Henry-Fauske correlation (2)

The enthalpy of the blowdown is assumed to be that of saturated liquid until no liquid remains, at which time saturated steam discharge is assumed.

This model conservatively underestimates the blowdown energy and overestimates the discharge rate, thereby leading to a more rapid blowdown and thus minimizing the steam generator heat removal capability.

A sensitivity study was performed to determine the influence en peak RCS pressure of the rate of decrease of effective heat transfer area in the ruptured steam generator.

The effective heat transfer area is assumed to decrease linearly (from design i

value to zero) as the steam generator mass decreases (from selected value to zero).

Thus, decreasing the mass interval over which the rampdown is assumed to occur implies a more rapid loss of heat transfer in the ruptured steam generator.

This study showed that maximizing the rate of decrease of heat transfer area maximizes the peak RCS pressure.

Therefore, a conservatively I

high rate of loss of heat transfer is assumed.

a San Onofre 2&3 FSAR Updated DECREASE IN HEAT REMOVAL BY THE SECONDARY SYSTEM (TURBINE PLANT) 15.2.3.1.3.2 Innut Parameters and Initial Conditions.

The input parameters and initial conditions used to analyze the NSSS response to a feedwater pipe break are discussed in Section 15.0.

In particular, those parameters which were unique to the analysis discussed below are listed in Table 15.2-9.

The initial conditions for the principal process variables monitored by the COLSS were varied within the reactor operating space given in Table 15.0-4 to determine the set of conditions that would produce the most adverse consequences following a feedwater system pipe break.

The full spectrum of break areas was considered up to a break size of the combined area of the flow distributing nozzles in the feedwater ring.

For each break, the initial steam generator liquid inventory and the initial pressurizer pressure were adjusted within the plant operating space to maximize the mismatch between core power and steam generator heat removal capacity prior to the CEAs dropping into the core.

This mitmatch will thus, maximize the, peak RCS pressure and pressurizer volume.

In order to eliminate any impact of uncertainty in the calculated water level in the ruptured steam generator, no credit was taken for low water level trip in the ruptured steam generator.

This delays the reactor trip, prolonging the RCS heatup and increasing the peak RCS pressure.

Loss of AC is assumed to occur at the time of turbine trip.

This causes the RCS pumps to coastdown, resulting in higher peak RCS pressure.

In addition, in response to loss of non-emergency ac power upon trip, turbine stop valves are assumed to close immediately.

Core inlet temperature and flow had negligible effects on the peak RCS pressure for a given blowdown rate.

However, maximizing the core inlet temperature also maximizes the steam generator pressure, which increases the maximum blowdown rate.

The maximum inlet temperature of 560 F also maximizes the RCS energy content and thereby increases the radiological releases associated with j

steam generator safety valve and atmospheric steam dump valve flows.

The pressurizer control system is maintained in the automatic mode so that it suppresses the pressure transient before trip.

This delays the time of reactor trip, prolonging the RCS heatup and increasing the over-pressurization.

However, this control system mode had a small impact on peak RCS pressure.

Of those systems and components called upon to mitigate the l

consequences of a feedwater system pipe break; i.e.,

pressurizer i

and steam generator safety valves, feed line check valves, i

auxiliary feedwater system, and reactor protective system, l

failure of the pressurizer or steam generator safety valves, o"

I the feed line check valves, is not considered credible.

With respect to the reactor protective system, the most reactive CEA l

is conservatively assumed to be stuck in the fully withdrawn l

San Onofre 2&3 FSAR Updated DECREASE IN HEAT REMOVAL BY THE SECONDARY SYSTEM (TURBINE PLANT) position.

Therefore, the worst active single failure, in addition to the stuck CEA, is the failure of one out of the two auxiliary feedwater pumps.

This failure leads to larger radiological releases through the steam generator safety valves with only one-half the auxiliary feedwater flow available.

San Onofre 2&3 FSAR Updated DECREASE IN HEAT REMOVAL BY THE SECONDARY SYSTEM (TURBINE PLANT)

The rupture of the main feedwater line is assumed to instantaneously terminate feedwater flow to the steam generators.

Critical flow is assumed to be instantaneously established from the steam generator connected to the ruptured feedline due to the break location between the steam generator and the check valve.

Check va,1ve closure prevents flow from the intact steam generator to the break.

The first

.: 38]p seconds are characterized by a l

gradual heatup of the primary and secondary systems due to the absence of subcooled feedwater flow to the steam generators.

During this stage, the steam generator connected to the ruptured line loses its heat transfer capability due to the depleted inventory.

This initiates an RCS-to-steam generator power mismatch, producing a large insurge to the pressurizer, causing

)

its pressure to exceed the high pressure trip setpoint at ::.:

$910 seconds.

A decrease in the steam generator water level initiates a reactor trip on low steam generator water level simultaneously.

Reactor trip followed by turbine trip occurs at R$19 seconds.

Pressurizer pressure continues to increase, passing the pressurizer safety valve setpoint of 2::: 2550 psia at 22.

39TO seconds.

Loss of normal onsite and offsite electrical power is assumed to occur simultaneously with the I

turbine trip, causing the reactor coolant pumps to coast down.

The pressure turns around a,f ter reaching a maximum of :::: 2893.7 psia in the RCS at 4979 A2y6 seconds.

I The core heat flux has decayed sufficiently by this time to reduce the RCS-to-steam generator power imbalance.

By 4;. ){[0 l

seconds, the steam generator safety valves open, limiting the steam generator pressure to a maximum of 114: $1]722 psia.

By 4.13223 seconds, the power imbalance reverses, with the steam generator removing more energy than the core produces.

The pressurizer safety valves close at 4:.4 52)) seconds as the l

prima'ry coolant temperature decreases.

The auxiliary feedwater flow reaches the intact steam generator by ::.

$$70 seconds.

l Reverse steam flow from, the intact to the ruptured steam generator and to the break causes the secondary pressure to decrease below the main steam isolation signal (MSIS) setpoint of 675 psia at 212.712g510 seconds closing the main steam isolation l

valves (MSIVs).

Closure of the MSIVs causes the secondary pressure and temperature in the intact steam generator to rise, decreasing the differential temperature (RCS-to-steam generator) and reducing the heat transfer rate.

This causes the core average temperature and RCS pressure to rise by 300 seconds and to reach a steady state by 500 seconds.

By ::: 33570 seconds, the steam generator safety valves open again and continue to relieve steam to the atmosphere until the atmospheric dump valves are opened by the operator at 30 minutes.

The plant is then cooled to 350 F at which time shutdown cooling is initiated.

The results indicate that the feedwater system pipe break event will not result in a peak RCS pressure which exceeds the faulted

a San Onofre 2&3 FSAR Updated DECREASE IN HEAT REMOVAL BY THE SECONDARY SYSTEM (TURBINE PLANT) stress pressure limit of 3,000 psia.

15.2.3.1.4 Barrier Performance 15.2.3.1.4.1 Mathematical Model.

The mathematical model used for evaluation of barrier performance is identical to that described in paragraph 15.2.3.1.3.

15.2.3.1.4.2 Inout Parameters and Initial conditions.

The input parameters and initial conditions used for evaluation of barrier performance are identical to those described in Paragraph 15.2.3.1.3.

15.2.3.1.4.3 Pesults.

Figures 15.2-48 and 15.2-49 are steam generator and pressurizer safety valve flowrates versus time for the feedwater system pipa break transient.

By 30 minutes, when the atmospheric dump valves are opened, the steam generator safety valves will have discharged no more than 74,:::J1g,[8b0 pounds of steam.

Approximately 934,000 pounds of steam would be discharged through the atmospheric dump valves during the 3.2 hours2.314815e-5 days <br />5.555556e-4 hours <br />3.306878e-6 weeks <br />7.61e-7 months <br /> of cooldown, giving total steam release to the atmosphere of 1,000,0:021{pDBJ600 pounds.

The steam generator connected to l

the ruptured feedwater line discharges 151,033 p~ounds of fluid to containment.

The pressurizer safety valves release 2325 pounds l

of steam to the quench tank.

l 15.2.3.1.5 Radiological Consequences I

The radiological consequences of this event are less severe than the consequences of the main steam line break discussed in Paragraph 15.1.3.1.B.

Mathematical Model Th5"NSSSilesc6nsi.461ths.'CVCS mslfundtion3aisTsi:dulistid usirig[the(CESECSIIIlcomputer program describedjiri Sectioni.15l.0x; A bounding calculation was done for the CVCS malfunction to determine if the potential existed for filling the pressurizer before operator action can terminate the charging-letdown flow imbalance.

The total volume added by the charging-letdown flow imbalance over a ::

15-minute period, which is the l

conservative time assumed for operator action, was determined.

Finally, a liquid volume increase is produced by condensing the steam in the pressurizer due to the proportional sprays.

This volume was conservatively assumed to be the liquid volume that would result from condensing the total initial steam region in the pressurizer.

The sum of these two

San Onofre 2&3 FSAR Updated INCREASE IN REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM INVENTORY volumes, plus the initial pressurizer liquid volume, produces the pressurizer liquid volume based on initial conditions that could be produced during a CVCS malfunction.

Results The following scenario describes the sequence of events that would occur during the limiting CVCS mal ~ function.

The increase in reactor coolant inventory initiated by the startup of e 'he CVCS charging pumps End] loss?of t

1erc! ass produces an over pressurization 'of the reactor coolant system (RCS).

The increasing pressurizer pressure activates the proportional sprays which slow the pressure increase by condensing steam in the pressurizer.

!;.e.... e s o..., p.eso...;e. e e;s ;e ecm..tealij esticates all f t;.e e..e; ;i.r.21 s.eio.

r The addition of water to the' RCS by both sprays and charging increases the pressurizer liquid volume and

San Onofre 2&3 FSAR Updated INCREASE IN REACTOR COOLANT SYSTEM INVENTORY hence raises the water level in the pressurizer.

The rate of filling-is slow'enough so that operator action in se 115 minutes to terminate the charging-letdown flow l

imbalance is sufficient to prevent filling the pressurizer.

The total increase of water level in the pressurizer during the first as M minutes of the trsnsient is approximately 4M 103 of the available steam volume.

@){a RCS coolant contraction on trip decreases the rate of liquid level rise in the pressurizer so that operator action in se 15 minutes is sufficient to l

The maximum RCS pressure is limited by the high-pressurizer pressure reactor trip and the s;eer.

ge..uaete. Eli~6aff safety valves to 110% of design pressure.

Also, the steam generator safety valves limit the main steam system pressure to within 110% of j

design.

Therefore, the integrity of the RCS and main steam system is maintained.

CVCS malfunction transient indicating no violation of the fuel thermal limits.
