Idle Loop Flow Operating Loop Flow

Indication Indication A. approximately 0% approximately 100%.

B. approximately 0% approximately 108%.

C. approximately 32% approximately 100%.

D. approximately 32% approximately 108%.

Proposed Answer: D. approximately 32%; approximately 108%

Explanation:

Flow in the operating loops increases to 108%. Flow in the idled loop indicates 32%, which is actually -32% (reverse flow). If an RCP is stopped, the high pressure discharge of the other three pumps forces the coolant to flow backwards through the newly idled loop.

Due to the reduced backpressure of the idle loop, the flow rate in each of the operating loops increases from 100% to about 108% of rated flow.

The idle loop has an equivalent flow of about 32%, in the reverse direction. Total core flow will decrease since only three RCPs are operating, and some of their flow is bypassing the core thro ugh the idle loop.

Only D is correct.

Proposed Answer: C. Feed flow in the Steam Ge nerators 1-2, 1-3 and 1-4 goes up; feed flow in Steam Generator 1-1 goes down Explanation:

A. Incorrect. increased steaming from the unaffected loop will cause feed flow to rise in those loops. Conversely, decreased steaming in the aff ected loop causes feed flow to go down. If the candidate believes power will go down, then it would be reasonable to assume feed flow will go down in all loops.

B. Incorrect. power in the unaffected loops goes up, but overall reactor power does not change. Failure to realize this makes the answer plausible.

C. Correct.

D. Incorrect. opposite of what actually happens.

RCS temperature is 300°F.

When evaluating conditions to stop the first SI pump, there is less subcooling than required. In accordance with the RNO step in E-1.2, the operator starts an RHR pump and then stops the SI pump.

What is accomplished by starting an RH R pump prior to stopping the SI pump?

A. Ensures the RCS will remain subcooled as RCS pressure lowers.

B. Refills the Pressurizer.

C. Prevents a challenge to the Core Cooling critical safety function.

D. Maintains conditions for continued RCP operation.

Proposed Answer: A. Ensures the RCS will remain subcooled.

Explanation:

A. Correct. The background document states: If th e RCS subcooling criter ion is not satisfied, but the RCS hot leg temperatures are less than the saturation temperature corresponding to the low-head (RHR) SI pump head at minimum pump recirculation flow, the charging/SI pump can be stopped if a low-head SI pump is running or can be st arted. Starting a low-head pump for this case ensures that RCS subcooling will be maintained after the charging/SI pump is stopped.

Because RCS temperature is less than 547°F, the Shift Foreman directs the operator to stabilize RCS temperature at its current value.

What is the basis for stabilizing temperature at its current value?

A. Lengthens the time to Pressurizer overfill.

B. Mitigates PTS concerns if a repressurization of the RCS occurs.

C. Aids in meeting TCOA time in the event the reason for the Safety Injection is a tube rupture.

D. Prevents the opening of the atmospheric steam dump valves when the main condenser is not available.

Proposed Answer: A. Lengthens the time to Pressurizer overfill.

Explanation:

A. Correct. Controlling RCS heatup rate or stabilizing RCS temperature below 547°F will allow more volume in the Pzr before overfill becomes a problem. This has proven to be an effective strategy in preventing Pzr overfill during inadvertent SI scenarios. This does not contradict the intent of the step which is to check for proper cont rol operation and plant stabilization.

B. Incorrect. Repressurization is a concern with excessive RCS cooldown, but this is not the basis for the step.

C. Incorrect. There are multiple TCOAs for a SGTR, however, this step does not aid in any of them. The TCOAs are concerned with the time to start the cooldown or stop the cooldown and initiate depressurization, not the time to perform the cooldown.

D. Incorrect. If the crew stabilizes at the current temperature, it would be done by adjusting the setpoint of the steam dumps and the atmo spherics would lift as necessary to control temperature.

D. Charging flow indication on FI-128 goes high and all seal injection fl ow indications go to zero.

Proposed Answer: B. Charging flow indication on FI-128 lowers and all seal injection flow indications go high.

Explanation:

A. Incorrect. HCV-142 is a fail closed valve, used by the operartor to create backpressure and ensure adequate seal injecti on flow, controlled by the opera tor at the Center Console. Opening the valve increases charging and lowers seal injection fl ow, closing down on the valve does the opposite. Loss of air will cause it to close, stopping charging but forcing more water into the seal injection lines.

B. Correct. The valve fails closed, stopping chargi ng and causing an increase in seal injection.

How is the initial response of the Pressurizer pressure control system to the load rejection affected by having PC-455K in MANUAL?

A. Pressurizer spray valves will not respond to the pressure increase caused by the insurge.

B. Pressurizer heaters will not respond to the greater than 5% level increase above program level caused by the insurge.

C. Pressurizer heaters will not respond to the pressure de crease caused by the outsurge.

D. Pressurizer spray valves will not respond to the pressure rise caused by the heaters energizing due to the outsurge.

Proposed Answer: A. Pressurizer spray valves will not respond to the pressure increase caused by the insurge.

Explanation: . A. Correct. The load rejection will cause the RCS temperature to increase and expand. A pressurizer insurge results in a new, higher, equilibrium pressure and temperature

condition. The pressure increase is due to compressing the steam bubble. The temperature increase is due to some of the steam condensi ng to water, transferri ng latent heat to the steam/water interface. The magnitude of the pressure increase is minimized by the condensing action of the steam. However, the rise in pressure will not be mitigated by the spray valves if the master pressure controller is in ma nual. The PORVs would respond.

B. Incorrect. RCS will heatup and raise level, but the heaters will energize because they are turned on by the master level controller in this case.

C. Incorrect. Pressure will begin to rise due to an insurge.

D. Incorrect. There will be an insurge, not an outsurge.

The crew has transitioned to E-1, Loss of Reactor or Secondary Coolant from E-0, Reactor Trip or Safety Injection based on high Containment pressure.

At step 2 of E-1, a check is made for a faulted steam generator.

What is the basis for the Shift Foreman checking for a faulted steam generator at this point in E-1?

A. To ensure there is a heat sink available.

B. To check for an uncontrolled cooldown.

C. To alert the crew to a possible misdiagnosis or subsequent steam generator failure which must be isolated.

D. The diagnosis step for a LOCA based on Containment parameters occurs before the check for a faulted steam generator in E-0.

Proposed Answer: C. To alert the crew to a possible misdiagnosis or subsequent steam generator failure which must be isolated.

Explanation:

A. Incorrect. Heat sink is checked later when checking steam generator level. If the LOCA was large, steam generators are not needed for heat removal.

B. Incorrect. basis is to check for a faulted steam generator, there is no action taken to control temperature.

C. Correct. Per the background document, An unc ontrolled SG pressure decrease or a completely depressurized (i.e., near containment or atmospheric pressure) SG indicates a failure of the secondary pressu re boundary. If it cannot be verified that all faulted SG(s) steamlines and feedlines are isolated, the operator is instructed to leave E-1 and transfer to E-2, FAULTED STEAM GENERATOR ISOLATION, to perform the isolation actions.

Therefore, this step alerts the operator to a possible misdiagnosis or subsequent failure.

What action, if any, should be taken by the Shift Foreman to address the challenges to the Critical Safety Functions?

NOTE:

FR-S.1 - Response to Nucl ear Power Generation/ATWS FR-H.1 - Response to Loss of Secondary Heat Sink

A. No action, Critical Safety Function status trees are monitored for information only until pressure in at least one steam generator begins to increase.

B. A challenge to the Heat Sink Critical Safety F unction is expected due to intentional operator action and does not have to be addressed, go directly to FR-S.1 to direct action to make the reactor subcritical.

C. Go to FR-H.1 and perform the first step to verify procedure performance is not required, then transition to FR-S.1 to direct action to make the reactor subcritical.

D. Go to FR-H.1, trip the RCPs and initiate bleed and feed; the subcritic ality challenge will not be addressed at this time.

Proposed Answer: C. Go to FR-H.1 and perform the first step to verify procedure performance is not required, then transition to FR-S.1.

Explanation:

A. Incorrect. Unlike other EOPs, such as E-1.3 or ECA-0.0, valid challeng es to the CSFs are addressed during ECA-2.1 B. Incorrect. Although only the initial step of H.1 will be performed, the RED path must be addressed.

C. Correct. A check that the RED path is due to operator action is performed, then the subcriticality challenge due to the positive SUR is addressed.

D. Incorrect. If the H.1 procedure was performed, this would be the correct action to take.
