This is accomplished by operating within the nucleate boiling regime of heat transfer, wherein the heat transfer coefficient is large enough so that the clad surface temperature is only slightly greater than the coolant temperature.
The upper boundary of the nucleate boiling regime is termed "departure from nucleate boiling" (DNB). At this point, there is a sharp reduction of the heat transfer coefficient, which would result in high-cladding temperatures and the possibility of cladding failure. Although DNB is not an observable parameter during reactor operation, the observable parameters of thermal power, primary coolant flow, temperature and pressure, can be related to DNB through the use of a DNB Correlation.
DNB Correlations have been developed to predict DNB and the location of DNB for axially uniform and nonuniform heat flux distributions.
The local DNB ratio (DNBR), defined as the ratio of the heat flux that would cause DNB at a particular core location to the actual heat flux, is indicative of the margin to DNB. The minimum value of the DNBR, during steady-state operation, normal operational transients, and anticipated transients is limited to DNB correlation safety limit. A DNBR equal to the DNB correlation safety limit corresponds to a 95% probability at a 95% confidence level that DNB will not occur which is considered an appropriate margin to DNB for all operating conditions.
The reactor protective system is designed to prevent any anticipated combination of transient conditions for primary coolant system temperature, pressure and thermal power level that would result in a DNBR of less than the DNB correlation safety limit. The Palisades safety analyses uses three DNB correlations.
The XNB correlation discussed in References 1 and 2 determines the safety limit for those fuel assemblies initially loaded prior to Cycle 9. Fuel assemblies, initially loaded in cycle 9 and later, utilize a high thermal performance (HTP) design which is different than the fuel design used for cycle 8 and earlier reloads. The ANFP correlation discussed in References 4 and 5 and the HTP correlation discussed in Reference 7 determine the safety limit for those fuel assemblies initially loaded in cycle 9 and later. The ANFP correlation was developed for the HTP fuel design; the HTP correlation is an extension of the ANFP correlation and reflects the results of additional DNB testing of HTP fuel. The HTP correlation is restricted to the operating conditions specified in Reference 7, outside of which. the ANFP correlation is used. In the presence of a mixed core consisting of both HTP and non-HTP fuel assemblies, situated such that the non-HTP fuel assemblies affect the flow distribution, the minimum DNBR analyses are in accordance with Reference

This is accomplished by operating within the nucleate boiling regime of heat transfer, wherein the heat transfer coefficient is large enough so that the clad surface temperature is only slightly greater than the coolant temperature.
The upper boundary of the nucleate boiling regime is termed "aeparture from nucleate boiling" (DNB). At this point, there is a sharp reduction of the heat transfer coefficient, which would result in high-cladding temperatures and the possibility of cladding failure. Although DNB is not an observable parameter during reactor operation, the observable parameters of thermal power, primary coolant flow, temperature and g ressure, can be related to DNB through the use of a DNB Correlation.
NB Correlations have been developed to predict DNB and the location of DNB for axially uniform and nonuniform heat flux distributions.
