2.5    Axial Flux Difference (Specification 3/4.2.1)
Evaluation Re irements In order to change the requirements concerning the number and location of operable detectors, the NRC staff deems that a rigorous evaluation and justification is required.The following is a list of elements that must be part of a 50.59 determination and available for audit if the licensee wishes to change the requirements:
The AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE (AFD) target band is specified in Figure 3.
How an inadvertent loading of a fuel assembly into an improper location will be detected, How the validity of the tilt estimates will be ensured, How adequate core coverage will be maintained, How the measurement uncertainties will be assured and why the added uncertainties are adequate to guarantee that measured nuclear heat flux hot channel factor, nuclear enthalpy rise hot channel'actor, radial peaking factor and quadrant power tilt factor meet Technical Specification limits, and How the Movable Incore Detection System will be restored to full (or nearly full)service before the beginning of each cycle.PLP-106 Rev.19 Page 76 of 84 Harris Unit 1 Cycle 9 Core Operating Limits Report-Rev.0 Figure 1 Attachment 9 Sheet 8 of 12 Shutdown Margin Versus RCS Boron Concentration Modes 3, 4, and 5/Drained*Applicable to Mode 4, with or without RCPs in operation 8000 7000 I I-~.I I I b b I~~I I I I I I I I I I I 6000 E O 5000 K 4000 O Cl 3000 CO 2000~~I I I I I I C MODES I I I~-I I I I I 4 II I I r''I I I I I I (I I I*"r"" I I I b~I~I I I I I I I~Q~-PIQDP JN OPE.JN.O.DE-4-Vf IT.H-ItIO RATION,', A 5 I I-R',G NP I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I~I 3j-AN D-M 0 D E-4.7, LEAST ONE OPERAl:IO:-MODE WIT.H A.R GP,.IN.I I I I I I I I I I N I..(2'6.0 0.)640.0)I I I I~I I I I I I I I I I'I I I I I I I I I I I I (2'600,2600) 1000 0 MOQE 5', ,~I.~(550,1600)

: l.    ~oerabilit: The Movable lncore Detection system shall be        opERABLE  with:
All the following at beginning of cycle (where the     beginning of cycle is defined in this instance as a flux map      determination that the core is loaded consistent with design):
: i. At least 45 detector thimbles (90% of the total number),
ii. Either J-10    or L-14 locations, and iii. Either N-S, H-6, or J-7 locations A minimum  of 38 detector thimbles for the remainder of the operating cycle,
: c.     A minimum  of two detector thimbles per core quadrant, and Suf ficient movable detectors, drive, and readout equipment to       map these thimbles.
A  licabilit  : When  the Movable Incore Detection System  is  used  for:
: a.      Recalibration of the Excore Neutron Flux Detection System, or
: b.      Monitoring the QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO, or
: c.      Measurement  of  Fm and Fq(Z)
Surveillance  Re  irements:    The Movable Incore Detection System shall be demonstrated  OPERABLE,    within  24 hours prior to use, by irradiating each detector used and    determining the acceptability of its voltage curve when required for:
: a.      Recalibration of the Excore Neutron Flux Detection System, or
: b.     Monitoring the QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO, or
: c.      Measurement  of  Fw and Fa(Z)
Bases The OPERABILITY of the movable incore detectors with the specified minimum complement of equipment ensures that the measurements obtained from use of this system accurately represent the spatial neutron flux distribution of the core. The OPERABILITY of this system is demonstrated by irradiating each detector used and determining the acceptability of its  voltage curve.
For the purpose of measuring Fo(Z) or Fm, a      full incore flux map is    used.
Quarter-core flux maps, as defined in WCAP-8648, June 1976, may be used in recalibration of the Excore Neutron Flux Detection System, and full incore flux maps or symmetric incore thimbles may be used for monitoring QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO when one Power Range channel is inoperable.

Evaluation  Re  irements In order to change the requirements concerning the number and location of operable detectors, the NRC staff deems that a rigorous evaluation and justification is required. The following is a list of elements that must be part of a 50.59 determination and available for audit if the licensee wishes to change the requirements:
How an inadvertent loading of a fuel assembly into an improper location will be detected, How the validity of the    tilt estimates will be ensured, How  adequate  core coverage  will be  maintained, How  the measurement uncertainties will be assured and why the added  uncertainties are adequate to guarantee that measured nuclear heat flux hot channel factor, nuclear enthalpy rise hot channel'actor, radial peaking factor and quadrant power factor meet Technical Specification limits, and tilt How  the Movable Incore Detection System will be restored to      full (or nearly full) service before the beginning of each cycle.

l. ~oerabilit: The Movable lncore Detection system shall be opERABLE with:

All the following at beginning of cycle (where the beginning of cycle is defined in this instance as a flux map determination that the core is loaded consistent with design):

i. At least 45 detector thimbles (90% of the total number),

ii. Either J-10 or L-14 locations, and iii. Either N-S, H-6, or J-7 locations A minimum of 38 detector thimbles for the remainder of the operating cycle,

c. A minimum of two detector thimbles per core quadrant, and Suf ficient movable detectors, drive, and readout equipment to map these thimbles.

A licabilit  : When the Movable Incore Detection System is used for:

a. Recalibration of the Excore Neutron Flux Detection System, or
b. Monitoring the QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO, or
c. Measurement of Fm and Fq(Z)

Surveillance Re irements: The Movable Incore Detection System shall be demonstrated OPERABLE, within 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br /> prior to use, by irradiating each detector used and determining the acceptability of its voltage curve when required for:

a. Recalibration of the Excore Neutron Flux Detection System, or
b. Monitoring the QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO, or
c. Measurement of Fw and Fa(Z)

Bases The OPERABILITY of the movable incore detectors with the specified minimum complement of equipment ensures that the measurements obtained from use of this system accurately represent the spatial neutron flux distribution of the core. The OPERABILITY of this system is demonstrated by irradiating each detector used and determining the acceptability of its voltage curve.

For the purpose of measuring Fo(Z) or Fm, a full incore flux map is used.

Quarter-core flux maps, as defined in WCAP-8648, June 1976, may be used in recalibration of the Excore Neutron Flux Detection System, and full incore flux maps or symmetric incore thimbles may be used for monitoring QUADRANT POWER TILT RATIO when one Power Range channel is inoperable.

Evaluation Re irements In order to change the requirements concerning the number and location of operable detectors, the NRC staff deems that a rigorous evaluation and justification is required. The following is a list of elements that must be part of a 50.59 determination and available for audit if the licensee wishes to change the requirements:

How an inadvertent loading of a fuel assembly into an improper location will be detected, How the validity of the tilt estimates will be ensured, How adequate core coverage will be maintained, How the measurement uncertainties will be assured and why the added uncertainties are adequate to guarantee that measured nuclear heat flux hot channel factor, nuclear enthalpy rise hot channel'actor, radial peaking factor and quadrant power factor meet Technical Specification limits, and tilt How the Movable Incore Detection System will be restored to full (or nearly full) service before the beginning of each cycle.
