<+ NCSU PULSTAR Technical Specifications 3.0, LIMITING CONDITIONS FOR OPERATION 3.1 Reactor Core Confienration Anpliemhility .
This specification applies to the reactor core configuration during forced convection or natural convection flow operation.
Obiective The objective is to assure that the reactor will be operated within the bounds of established Safety Limits.
Specification The reactor shall not be operated unless the following conditions exist:
- a. A maximum of twenty-five fuel assemblies.
- b. A maximum of ten reflector assemblies of either graphite or beryllium or a combination of these located on the core periphery.
- c. Unoccupied grid plate penetrations plugged.
. d. A minimum of four control rod guides are in place.
- e. . The maximum worth of a single fuel assembly shall not exceed 1.59%Ak/k (1590 pcm).
- f. The total nuclear peaking factor in any fuel assembly shall not exceed 2.92 Bases Specifications 3.1(a) through 3.1(d) require that the core be configured such that there is no bypass cooling flow around the fuel through the grid plate.
Specification 3.1(c) provides assurance that a fuel loading ~ accident will not result in a Safety Limit to be exceeded as discussed in SAR Section 13.2.2.1.
. Specification 3.1(f) provides assurance that core hot channel power are bounded
' by the SAR assumptions in Appendix 3-B.
