Dear Mr. Denton:

Mr. R. L. Tedesco's letter of November 5, 1980 requested additional information concerning the effect of split breaks on peak clad temperature. The attached analysis results for a double-ended cold leg split break with a Cd = .6 (imperfect mixing) confirm that split breaks are not limiting for McGuire.

If there are further questions regarding this matter, please advise. This attached information will be included in the next revision to the McGuire Final Safety Analysis Report.

Very truly yours, O  % 0 0F 1 ,i.

In addition, perfect mixing split cases have previously demonstrated a low calculated PCT.
