IOAOP-16.0 Rev. 18 Page 8 of 11 I | |||
480 GENERAL DISCUSSION RBCCW failure interrupts cooling water supply to the following components: | |||
(1) Reactor Recirculation Pumps (2) CRD Pumps (3) RWCU Recirculation Pumps, Precoat Pump, and Nonregenerative Hx (4) DrywelJ Coolers (5) Penetration Coolers (6) Fuel Pool Heat Exchangers (7) Drywell Equipment Drain Heat Exchanger (8) RBEDT Heat Exchanger (9) Reactor Building Sample Station (10) Radwaste Building Sample Station (11) Postaccident Sample System Sample Coolers (12) Drywell Plate and Frame Heat Exchanger (when 2D RBCCW Pump in service) | |||
RBCCW system failure could be due to a pipe rupture, pump failure, or loss of service water. This procedure attempts to reduce the system heat load on a partial loss of pressure due to pump failure, or high temperature due to service water failure. In the case where no RBCCW pumps are running and any drywell local temperature below the 75' elevation has exceeded 260 degrees, restart of the RBCCW pumps will be controlled using Infrequent Operation sections in 1(2)OP-21 in order to protect RBCCW piping integrity inside the drywell. If a loss of all pumps has occurred, and elevated drywell temperature existed, system piping may contain voids, which could lead to waterhammer upon an uncontrolled restart. | |||

4~O GENERAL DISCUSSION Several varieties of recirculation flow system malfunctions can cause a decrease in core coolant flow. The Reactor Recirculation System creates forced circulation of reactor coolant through the core. It is a piping system designed primarily to provide driving flow for the reactor jet pumps which, in turn, provide the coolant flow through the reactor core. The system is comprised of two separate and parallel recirculation loops. The tripping of one recirculation pump will reduce core flow from 1000/0 to approximately 600/0. In this case, flow would reverse through the 10 idle jet pump diffusers, and the other 10 jet pumps would continue to function. | |||
If both recirculation pumps trip, natural circulation will provide approximately 300/0 of rated core flow and a gradual reduction in flow is the only result. However, due to core thermal hydraulic instability uncertainties, the reactor must be manually scrammed in response to a dual recirculation pump trip with the reactor mode switch in RUN. Recent problems identified with core flow measurement in single loop operation, and with recirculation pump speeds outside the allowable mismatch, have created the need (under some circumstances) to use core differential pressure to determine entry into the region of thermal hydraulic instability. Core differential pressure was chosen as a means to estimate core flow due to its relationship to core flow. Recirculation pumps will automatically trip on low water level +105" or high pressure 1137 psig. | |||
The OPRM system provides alarms and automatic trips as applicable. If the OPRM System is inoperable, then Tech Specs require an alternate method to detect and suppress thermal hydraulic instability oscillations in accordance with BWR Owners Group Guidelines for Stability Interim Corrective Action, June 6 1994. This requires three stability monitoring regions (Region A - manual scram, Region B - immediate exit, and 5 % Buffer). | |||

480 GENERAL DISCUSSION RBCCW failure interrupts cooling water supply to the following components:
(1) Reactor Recirculation Pumps (2) CRD Pumps (3) RWCU Recirculation Pumps, Precoat Pump, and Nonregenerative Hx (4) DrywelJ Coolers (5) Penetration Coolers (6) Fuel Pool Heat Exchangers (7) Drywell Equipment Drain Heat Exchanger (8) RBEDT Heat Exchanger (9) Reactor Building Sample Station (10) Radwaste Building Sample Station (11) Postaccident Sample System Sample Coolers (12) Drywell Plate and Frame Heat Exchanger (when 2D RBCCW Pump in service)
RBCCW system failure could be due to a pipe rupture, pump failure, or loss of service water. This procedure attempts to reduce the system heat load on a partial loss of pressure due to pump failure, or high temperature due to service water failure. In the case where no RBCCW pumps are running and any drywell local temperature below the 75' elevation has exceeded 260 degrees, restart of the RBCCW pumps will be controlled using Infrequent Operation sections in 1(2)OP-21 in order to protect RBCCW piping integrity inside the drywell. If a loss of all pumps has occurred, and elevated drywell temperature existed, system piping may contain voids, which could lead to waterhammer upon an uncontrolled restart.

REVISION
SUMMARY
Revision 18 is an editorial correction to replace the Desdemona font used for check-off boxes and to enhance wording in Notes~
Revision 17 clarifies conditions under which a CRD pump may be operated for greater than 20 minutes without cooling.
Revision 16 adds clarifying information in a NOTE above steps required to be performed for a complete loss of RBCCW.
Revision 15 - Added new Step 3.2.4.4 to instruct the Operator to scram the reactor upon loss of forced recirculation (Mode Switch in RUN) as required by 1(2)AOP-04.0.
Revision 14 - Format changes to meet the requirements of OAP-005 and Microsoft Word XP. This revision makes non-intent changes to steps for clarity. This change does NOT implement an intent change. Additional administrative changes classified as "editorial": are bolding action verbs, italicizing components, change of cover page logo, removal of the "bar code" from the cover page, and adding place keeping aids.
Revision 13 incorporates EC 47025, Permanent RB/DW Chiller Installation. New Supplementary Action steps 2 and 3 have been added to address actions required if the 2D RBCCW Pump is in service to either drywelL Revision 12 incorporates actions required in response to NRC Generic Letter 96-06.
This action added a step to prevent RBCCW pump restart if all pumps were lost and any local drywell temperature below the 75' elevation exceeded 260 degrees Fahrenheit.
Revision 11 switches the order of steps in the Supplementary Actions section to clarify the actions to be taken for a complete loss of RBCCW and corrects procedure references.

4~O GENERAL DISCUSSION Several varieties of recirculation flow system malfunctions can cause a decrease in core coolant flow. The Reactor Recirculation System creates forced circulation of reactor coolant through the core. It is a piping system designed primarily to provide driving flow for the reactor jet pumps which, in turn, provide the coolant flow through the reactor core. The system is comprised of two separate and parallel recirculation loops. The tripping of one recirculation pump will reduce core flow from 1000/0 to approximately 600/0. In this case, flow would reverse through the 10 idle jet pump diffusers, and the other 10 jet pumps would continue to function.
If both recirculation pumps trip, natural circulation will provide approximately 300/0 of rated core flow and a gradual reduction in flow is the only result. However, due to core thermal hydraulic instability uncertainties, the reactor must be manually scrammed in response to a dual recirculation pump trip with the reactor mode switch in RUN. Recent problems identified with core flow measurement in single loop operation, and with recirculation pump speeds outside the allowable mismatch, have created the need (under some circumstances) to use core differential pressure to determine entry into the region of thermal hydraulic instability. Core differential pressure was chosen as a means to estimate core flow due to its relationship to core flow. Recirculation pumps will automatically trip on low water level +105" or high pressure 1137 psig.
The OPRM system provides alarms and automatic trips as applicable. If the OPRM System is inoperable, then Tech Specs require an alternate method to detect and suppress thermal hydraulic instability oscillations in accordance with BWR Owners Group Guidelines for Stability Interim Corrective Action, June 6 1994. This requires three stability monitoring regions (Region A - manual scram, Region B - immediate exit, and 5 % Buffer).

SUMMARY
Revision 16 incorporates EC 62929 by updating the title of Attachment 1 to reflect B2C18.
Revision 15 adds jet pump loop flow limit to recirc speed mismatch criteria.
Revision 14 incorporates EC 46653 (child 62488) by adding PPC point U2NSSWDP as an alternate for determining total core flow. This revision also adds a caution that an idle recirc pump may not be restarted to exit the scram avoidance region.
Revision 13 incorporates EC 50100 by updating annunciator A-05 5-8 noun name to
'OPRM PDA/CDA ALARM' and EC 56472 by updating the core flow-core dIp figure for the current fuel cycle and update map numbers. Added a step to notify NIT for backing up OPRM data.
Revision 12 - Incorporated EC 55156 which adds computer screens 811 and 812 to Note prior to Step 3.2.1 and corrected nomenclature for screens 806, 807,808, and 809.
Revision 11- Format changes to meet the requirements of OAP-005 and Microsoft Word XP. Steps that are not time dependant have been re-ordered to provide an easier transition. Other steps that have common sub-steps have been grouped together. These changes do NOT implement an intent change or a change in procedure methodology. Additional administrative changes classified as "editorial": are bolding action verbs, italicizing components, change of cover page logo, removal of the "bar code" from the cover page, and adding place keeping aids.
Revision 10 incorporates EC 46730 'Power Range Neutron Monitoring', EC 47907 'EPU Implementation' and EC 49331 'B2C16 Reload Core Design (figure 1).
Revision 9 incorporates ESR 00-00260 by updating Figure 1 (Core Flow vs Core Plate Differential Pressure) for cycle B2C15. This revision also deletes confusing wording in a caution and deletes a caution that was duplicated on the same page.
