Attachment 3 to PLA-742 Page 1 of 1 WETWELL SPRAY TER'4INATION OF 'PRESSURE INCREASE The NRC in Appendix I to SRP 6.2.1.1.C gives guidance that spray capacity be sufficient to accommodate a leakage area of the order of A/ ~K = 0.05 ft Therefore, a calculation was performed to confirm that with the drywell at the design pressure and a leakage area of A// K = 0.05 ft the drywell and wetwell pressure increase would be terminated when the wetwell sprays are initiated.

The leakage rate is

= 0.05 2 X 32.2 X 144 X 5.18 6.406 m = 4.3 ibm/sec The wetwell spray flow rate of one spray system is (reference "RHR Process Diagram". GE drawing 76IE792A Rev 5) 750 gpm X 1 = 103 ibm/sec 7.48 X 60 X .016247 The condensation efficiency is calculated as eff = m cond X h evap

(

h f-h spray X m

spray)

This equation is used to calculate the minimum acceptable spray efficiency by substituting the bypass leakage rate of 4.3 ibm/sec into the equation for cond. 'he wetwell sprays will terminate the pressure increase as long as they condense more steam than is leaking to the wetwell.

The required spray efficiency for one RHR spray system as a function of spray temperature is given below. With two spray systems operating the required efficiency would be halved. The actual spray efficiency should be on the order of 0.7 and, hence, when a single system is in operation with its RHR heat exchanger, this termination of the pressure increase is assured.
