INTRODUCTION o

COMPLETE REVISED LARGE AND SMALL BREAK LOCA ANALYSIS FOR CYCLE 17 (SUBMITTAL JULY 1990)

PERFORM 100FR50.59 EVALUATION TO ALLOW OPERATION OF CYCLE 16 WITN INCREASED STEAM GENERATOR TUBE PLUGGING LEVELS (SUBMITTAL JANUARY 1990)

EVALUATE LARGE BREAK LOCA ANALYSIS OF RECDPD EVALUATE SMALL BREAK LOCA ANALYSIS OF RECORD 1

l WCOBRA/ TRAC SER FINDINGS i

WCOBRA/ TRAC IS AN APPROPRIATE BEST ESTIMATE o-THERMAL-HYDRAULICS CODE FOR UPI-PWR LOCA ANALYSIS-AS PER SECY-83-472 q

[

l o

SUPERB 00NDED APPROACH IS AN ACCEPTABLE HETHOD OF ESTIMATING THE.95TH PERCENTILE PCT-AS REQUIRED BY SECY-83-472 o

CODE UNCERTAINTY ANALYSIS SHOULD BE SEPARATED SUCH THAT BLOWDOWN PEAK-AND A REFLOOD PEAK UNCERTAINTY IS CALCULATED t

0754NLEH/102789 5

WCOBRA/ TRAC SER1 CONDITIONS LICENSING ACCEPTANCE (1)

EXEMPTIONS WILL BE NEEDED TO APPENDIX K ITEMS 1.D.3 AND 1.D.5 REGARDING CORE EXIT LIQUID CARRYOVER FRACTION AND REFILL /REFLOOD HEAT TRANSFER,.RESPECTIVELY, BEFORE THE METHODOLOGY COULD BE USED TO SUPPORT LICENSING CALCULATIONS FOR THE UPI PLANTS

RESPONSE

WPS WILL FILE AN EXEMPTION TO THE ABOVE SECTIONS 0F APPENDIX K IN THE SAME FASHION AS NSP/WEP (2)

SENSITIVITY STUDIES SHOULD BE PERFORMED IN EACH PLANT-SPECIFIC LICENSING CALCULATION TO DETERMINE THE LOCATION UNDER WHICH THE HOT ASSEMBLY IS PLACED TO OBTAIN THE HIGHEST PCT

RESPONSE

WPS HAS THE SAME UPPER INTERNALS DESIGN AS WEP 0754M:LEM/102789 6

I WCOBRA/ TRAC SER CONDITIONS LICENSING ACCEPTANCE (CONTD (3)

ANY RELAXATION OF THE ASSUMPTION OF THE INSTANTANEOUS EQUILIBRIUM INITIAL CONDITION IN THE DECAY HEAT CALCULATION USING 1979 ANS STANDARD WILL NEED STAFF REVIEW AND APPROVAL

RESPONSE

HQ RELAXATION OF THE INSTANTANEOUS EQUILIBRIUM MODEL WILL BE USED FOR THIS APPLICATION CONCLUSIONS THE ANALYSIS PLANNED BY WPS/W WILL COMPLY WITH THE WCOBRA/ TRAC SER LICENSING ACCEPTANCE CONDITIONS 0754M:LEN/102789 7

MODEL DESCRIPTION BEGAN WITH WCOBRA/ TRAC MODEL DEVELOPED FOR UPI PLANTS AS DESCRIBED IN WCAP-10924, VOLUME 2 FIRST STEP WAS TO DEVELOP VESSEL N0 DING SIMILAR TO THAT WCAP-10924-P REVISION 1 ADDENDUM 2 FOR POINT BEACH, BUT WITH MODIFICATIONS FOR DOWNFLOW BARREL-BAFFLE CONFIGURATION KEWAUNEE HAS FLAT UPPER SUPPORT PLATE, SLOTTED SUPPORT COLUMNS (SOME WITH FLOW MIXERS), FREE STANDING MIXERS, THIMBLE GUIDE TUBE DESIGN AND OPEN HOLES (I.E. POINT BEACH INTERNALS)

RETAIN THE FOUR CHANNEL CORE CONFIGURATION WITH LOW POWERED ASSEMBLIES IN AN OUTER RING HOT ASSEMBLY MODELED SEPARATELY IN THE LOCATION WITH THE HIGHEST PEAK CLADDING TEMPERATURE (PCT) FROM THE SENSITIVITY STUDIES MODIFY THE BASIC LOOP MODEL FROM WCAP-10924-P REVISION 1 ADDENDUM 2 FOR THE KEWAUNEE SPECIFIC RCS LAYOUT
