The Overtemperature T function Allowable Value shall not exceed the nominal trip setpoint by more than 0.5% T span for the T channel, 0.2% T span for the Pressurizer Pressure channel, and 0.4% T span for the f(I) channel. No separate Allowable Value is provided for Tavg because this function is part of the T value.

- The Revised Predicted near - EOL 300 ppm MTC shall be calculated using the algorithm contained in WCAP-13749-P-A:

Revised Predicted MTC = Predicted MTC + AFD Correction - 3 pcm/F If the Revised Predicted MTC is less negative than the SR 4.1.1.3.b 300 ppm surveillance limit and all the benchmark criteria contained in the surveillance procedure are met, then an MTC measurement in accordance with SR 4.1.1.3.b is not required to be performed.

The neutronics methods used with WCAP-13749-P-A are those described in WCAP-11596-P-A, Qualification of the Phoenix-P/ANC Nuclear Design System for Pressurized Water Reactor Cores, June 1988.
