The CADD analysis for the vorst case T4L3 accident analyzed in support of LII-1 operation with the high pressure trip set at 2h05 psig and the pressuriner safety valves set at 25C0 psig used a relief rate through the pressuriser code safety valves of 86 lbn/sec at 2500 psis, or 309,600 lb=/hr/ valve. The resulting RCS peak pressure was 27h9 5 psia.
- The analysis was repeated, assuming a relief rate through the code relief valves of 78 lbs/sec at 2500 psig, or 280,800 lb=/hr/ valve. The resulting RCS peak pressure is 275h psia. The increase of k psia agrees with .the esticate of 5 psia =ade by "MPR Associates, Inc.". This analysis supports operation of TMI-1 vith the 2kO5 psig H.P.T. setpoint and the 2500 pais code safety valve setpoint. This analysis was performed assuming a trip string pressure delay tine of 500 ms which is characteristic of the 59 PH sensor originally installed at TMI-1.
The same analysis was also perfor ed assuming a string pressure delay time of h50 ms, which is characteristic of the Rosemount sensor which was installed at TMI-1 during the outage.

This is 0.3 psi more than the 2749 5 psia peak pressure calculated criginally, assuming 86 lbm/sec relief rate at 2500 psig and a 500 s string delay time.
Therefore, with a taxi =un possible change of 7 psig: (i) the probability of occurrence or the consequences of an accident or malfunction of equipment important to safety previously evaluated in the safety analysis report is not increased; (ii) the possibility of an accident or malfunction of a different type than any evaluated previously in the safety analysis report is not created; (iii) the margin of safety defined in the bg. sis for any technical specification is not reduced.
