Included in Reference (A), which transmitted several proposed CESSAR changes for NRC Staff review, was a change which reduced the mininum required Low Pressure Safety Injection (LPSI) flow. Justification for this reduction was also included in Reference (A). Reference (B) forwarded a proposed CESSAR change to reduce the minimum required High Pressure Safety Injection (HPSI) flow and included justification for that reduction.

Reference (B) forwarded a proposed CESSAR change to reduce the minimum required High Pressure Safety Injection (HPSI) flow and included justification for that reduction.
Since that time, treetings have been held with the Staff concerning the justification of tie aforementioned changes and to what extent re-analysis of CESSAR events is r' quired. Combustion Engineering (C-E) believes that adequate justification for the LPSI and HPSI flow reductions was provided in References (A) and (B), and, therefore, no further analysis is required. The Staff, however, feels that re-analysis of several safety analyses is required to provide a clean record of the events described in CESSAR.

Since re-analysis of affected events is currently being provided on a plant specific basis on the Palo Verde docket to address these and other minor deviations from CESSAR, C-E believes it to be impractical to evaluate the same events solely for the HPSI and LPSI changes. C-E has, therefore, reluctantly reconsidered our request to reduce the required HPSI and LPSI flow in CESSAR and hereby withdraws the information previously submitted to identify and justify those changes. The pages from References (1) and (2) being withdrawn are provided as Attachments (1) and (2), respectively.

OF CHANGES Chapter 5: Reactor Coolant System and Connected Systems Section 5.2.2.10 and Figure 5.2-2 are changed to reflect a lower maximum AT across a steam generator. This change is made to allow additional operational flexibility and limits the maximum AT at which a Reactor Coolant Pump can be started to 100*F. Additionally, clarification is added to more accurately reflect the Shutdown Cooling System relief valves used in construction.

Subject:

High and Low Pressure Safety Injection Flow

References:

(A) C-E Letter LD-84-070, A. E. Scherer to D. G. Eisenhut, dated December 5, 1984 (B) C-E Letter LD-84-071, A. E. Scherer to D. G. Eisenhut, dated December 5, 1984

Dear Mr. Thompson:

Included in Reference (A), which transmitted several proposed CESSAR changes for NRC Staff review, was a change which reduced the mininum required Low Pressure Safety Injection (LPSI) flow. Justification for this reduction was also included in Reference (A). Reference (B) forwarded a proposed CESSAR change to reduce the minimum required High Pressure Safety Injection (HPSI) flow and included justification for that reduction.

Since that time, treetings have been held with the Staff concerning the justification of tie aforementioned changes and to what extent re-analysis of CESSAR events is r' quired. Combustion Engineering (C-E) believes that adequate justification for the LPSI and HPSI flow reductions was provided in References (A) and (B), and, therefore, no further analysis is required.

The Staff, however, feels that re-analysis of several safety analyses is required to provide a clean record of the events described in CESSAR.

Since re-analysis of affected events is currently being provided on a plant specific basis on the Palo Verde docket to address these and other minor deviations from CESSAR, C-E believes it to be impractical to evaluate the same events solely for the HPSI and LPSI changes.

C-E has, therefore, reluctantly reconsidered our request to reduce the required HPSI and LPSI flow in CESSAR and hereby withdraws the information previously submitted to identify and justify those changes. The pages from References (1) and (2) being withdrawn are provided as Attachments (1) and (2), respectively.

SUMMARY

OF CHANGES Chapter 5: Reactor Coolant System and Connected Systems Section 5.2.2.10 and Figure 5.2-2 are changed to reflect a lower maximum AT across a steam generator. This change is made to allow additional operational flexibility and limits the maximum AT at which a Reactor Coolant Pump can be started to 100*F. Additionally, clarification is added to more accurately reflect the Shutdown Cooling System relief valves used in construction.

Figure 5.2-1 is modified to credit the typical difference in height between the pressur.izer and the shutdown cooling system.

This change was also made to provide operational flexibility.

Section 5.4.2.4.1 is changed to correct the Section numbers referenced. This change is considered editorial in nature.

Section 5.4.10.3 is revised to indicate that pressurization rate testing is not performed during Hot Functional Testing. Pressure control setpoints are determined analytically and checked during Power Ascension Testing.

Chapter 6: Engineered Safety Features Tables 6.3.3.3-1 and 6.3.3.3-2, and Fi jgur.3r3..-

, are modified to ease Low Pressure Safety Injection flopwtrements. These flaw changes were found to be sufficient to preser s etTpresent ECCS performance results. Comparison of the revised f th the figure currently in CESSAR demonstrates the e, insi ce of this change on the worst case postulated break.

Q;Ntm Appendix 6B:

Subject:

High Pressure Safety Injection Flow

Dear Mr. Eisenhut:

In an effort to provide a suitable technica specification margin for High Pressure Safety Injection (HPSI) pump perf rmance for the first System 80' plant, a re-analysis of the most limitin small break Loss Of Coolant Accident 2

(LOCA) has been performed. This small eak (0.05 ft cold leg) was selected ds the basis for determining the effec of reduced HPSI pump delivery for the following reasons.

(1)

Large break LOCAs are not nfluenced by HPSI flow.

2 (2)

This break size and loc tion (0.05 ft cold leg) is the most limiting small break.

(3)

Reduced HPSI pump p formance has no Impact on the consequences of the non-LOCA Chapter 1 safety analyses.

A comparison of the previ us peak clad temperature and two-phase mixtiJre height in the core is attached Figures 1 and 2). Also attached is a CESSAR change that is provided for y r review.

It will be incorporated into CESSAR in the next amendment.

A review of Figures 1 and 2 indicates that the maximum peak clad temperature for this break si increased from 1557*F (from previous CESSAR analyses) to 1630*F. This in ease is attributed to the slightly longer period of core

_ uncovery result g from the decrease in HPSI flow delivered. This small break analysis is st 1conservativelyboundedbythegostlimitinglargebreakLOCA peak clad tem erature (2169*F occurs in a 1.0 ft double-ended cold leg guillotine b eak).

In surinary, a CESSAR change is forwarded to reflect a reduced HPSI pump flow.

This cha e was necessary due to as-built conditions in the first System 80 plant.

re-analysis of tne most limiting small break LOCA demonstrates that system erformance remains well within the acceptance criteria of le.N e r Yi

f. 7 4 W A

1 Mr. Darrell.G. Eisenhut LD- - 071 December 5, 1984 P e2 10 CFR 50.46. Additionally, the nigher resulting peak clad te erature remains at least 500*F below the limit case large break LOCA.

The attached change will be included in a future amendment o CESSAR.

CESSAR CHANGES

The four safety injection tanks (SITS) are piped so that each SIT feeds a single cold leg injection point.

Thus:

a.

for a break in the pump discharge leg, the SIT flow credited is 100%

of the flow from three SITS.

The remaining SIT is assumed to spill out the break.

b.

for breaks in other locations, the SIT flow credited is 100% of fo SITS.

Table 6.3.3.3-1 presents the high and low pressure safety injectic pump flow rates assumea at each of the four injection points as a func on of reactor coolant system pressurey gggg gng 6.3.3.3.3 Core and System Parameters The significant core and system parameters used in the sa break calcula-tions are presented in Table 6.3.3.3-2.

The peak linear eat generation rate (PLHGR) of 15.0 kw/ft was assumed to occur 15% fro the top of the active core.

A conservative beginning-of-life modera e temperature coeffi-cient of 0.0 cc/*F was used in all small break calcu tions.

The ECCS performance analyses as performed, do no account for steam generator tube plugging which may occur over the plant's i fetime.

U)

The initial steady state fuel rod conditions are obtained from the FATES computer program.

Like the large break, th small break analyses employed a hot rod average burnup which ma'ximized t e amount of stored energy in the fuel. Since the small break analysis used higher PLHGR than did the large break analysis (15.0 kw/ft vs 14.0 kw/f the fuel rod parameter values given in Table 6.3.3.3-2 differ from ose on Table 6.3.3.2-2.

Because the large break results are always more limiting than the small break results,*the small break an ysis is run at a higher PLHGR to prevent requiring a reanalysis should t large break results improve.

Since the small break results are govere d mainly by the core liquid level transient (see Results Section below) ich is a function of the total core decay heat generation rate, the h her PLHGR does not significantly affect the l

small break results.

6.3.3.3.4 Contain nt Parameter.s The small break anal is does not credit any rise in containment pressure.

Therefore, other t n the initial containment pressure, which is assumed to remain constant, containment parameters are employed for this analysis.

The initial cont inment pressure was assumed to be 0.0 psig.

this occurs for a break size between 0.05 ft anc 0.02 ft (and for all smaller breaks).

To demonstrate the conservatism associated with the snail break ECCS perfor-2 mance results provided herein, the 0.05 ft break was/ reanalyzed using a more realistic measure of the decay heat generationjrate.

In addition to the.snm.small breaks discussed above, the rupture of an in-corainstrumenttube'wasconsidergd.

A break, equal in size to a completely I

severed instrument tube (0.003 ft ) was postulated to occur in the reactor vessel bottom head.

/

/

Following rupture, the primary system depressurites until a reactor scram signal and safety injection actuation signal (SIAS) are generated due to low pressurizer pressure at 1600 psia. The assumed loss of offsite power causes the primary coolant pump and the feedwater pumps to coast down.

1 After the 30 second delay required to start the emergency diesel and the high pressure safety injection pump, safety injection flow is isitiated to the reactor vessel.

At this time an emergency feedwater pump is also started, providing a source of cooling to the steam generators.

Due to the assumed failure of one diesel, only one high pressure safety injection pump cnd one emergency feedseter pump are available.

(Four SITS and one low pressure safety injection pump are also available but do not inject due to the high RC5 pressure.) The steam generator secondary sides also become issisted at this time.

Th3 primary side depressurization continues accompanied by a rise in sec'ondary sida pressure until the secondary side pressure reaches the lowest set pointofthe/teamgeneratorsafetyreliefvalves.

The primary system pressure continues to fall until it is just slightly greater than the secondary side pressure.

At this point, the flow from the one operating HPSIP (66 lbs/sec) exceeds the leak flow (26.4 lbs/sec).
