PURPOSE In consideration of the Cooper setpoint verification program in conjunction with a 7.5 month surveillance interval (required 6 months plus 25% grace period), determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint and Allowable Value for the Reactor Protection System (RPS) scrams from the Average Power Range Monitoring High Neutron Flux, Flow Biased, and Low Power (Setdown)
High Neutron Flux trip functions.
Also considerations of allowable APRM gain adjustment factors (AGAF) of 0.98 to 1.02 will be made (CNS Technical Specifications SR 3.3.1.1.2).
In conjunction with a 7.5 month surveillance interval (required 6 months plus 25% grace period), determine the Nominal Trip Setpoint and Allowable Value for the Rod Block Monitoring System (RBM).The RBM System (NM-NAM-AR5 and NM-NAM-AR6) monitors local neutron flux around a control rod selected for withdrawal, and blocks control rod withdrawal when neutron flux exceeds predefined, power dependent setpoints, Reference
1.2. REQUIREMENTS
2.1 The APRM System (NM-NAM-AR2, NM-NAM-AR3, NM-NAM-AR4, NM-NAM-AR7, NM-NAM-AR8, NM-NAM-AR9) monitors average neutron flux throughout the entire core and provides a rod block and scram at two separate flow-biased setpoints.
The APRM system has the further requirement of providing rod blocks and scrams at other lower setpoints when the reactor mode switch is in a mode other than RUN (rod block in STARTUP, and scram in REFUEL or STARTUP and HOT STANDBY), Reference
- 1. Per References 2, 6, 15,41, and 54, the Analytical Limits for the APRM Trip Channels are as follows;APRM Trip Function Analytical Limit Flow Biased Scram 0.66W + 74.8% RTP Flow Biased Rod Block 0.66W + 63.5% RTP High Neutron Flux Scram 123.0% RTP Rod Block Clamp 11 1.7% RTP l &Downscale Neutron Flux Rod Block 0.0% RTP High Flux -Setdown Scram 17.4% RTP High Flux -Setdown Rod Block 14.4% RTP Wfhere "W " is the two loop recirculation flow rate in percent of rated (rated loop recirculation loop flow rate is that recirculation flow rate which provides 100% core flow at 100% power).2.2 The APRM, Rod Block Monitor, and Technical Specifications (ARTS) / Extended Load Line Limit Analysis (ELLLA) Implementation of DC-89-219 physically reconfigured the RBM and changed the Analytical Limits of the setpoints for both the RBM and APRM (in RUN mode), Reference
- 3. Per References 2, 3, and 22, the Analytical Limits for the RBM ARTS Trip Channels and Nominal Trip Setpoints for the Time Delay (Td 1) and Time Constants (Tc 1, Tc2)* , Reference 44, are as follows;RBM Trip Function Analytical Limit Low Power Setpoint (LPSP) 30%Intermediate Power Setpoint (IPSP) 65%High Power Setpoint (HPSP) 85%

Does not affect RWE transient response.** The Downscale trip setpoint (DTSP) fuinctions to prevent a rod withdrawal if the selected RBM channel power is too low from its most recent normalized calibration conditions (i.e. 100%). This assures that the calibration (i.e., normalization) performed at the time of rod selection remains valid before permitting withdrawal of the rod. The Analytical Limit was changed from 91% to 89% of reference level per Reference
- 6. The DTSP limit is not utilized in any licensing bases Rod Withdrawal Error (RWE) analysis or that the range is restricted by design to values considered in the RWE analysis.* There is no MCPR limitation associated with the DTSP.2.3 This calculation is performed in accordance with CNS Engineering Procedure 3.26.3, Instrument Setpoint and Channel Error Calculations (Reference 7).2.4 The methods used in this calculation are consistent with the requirements of Reg. Guide 1.105 that the GE Instrument Setpoint Methodology (Reference
- 4) is in compliance.

Date: -.ilgC 3. ASSUMPTIONS 3.1 The GE APRM/RBM equipment accuracy specification includes the uncertainties due to seismic effect on the equipment located in the Neutron Monitoring System equipment panels. All equipment in these panels are qualified as a unit.3.2 The recirculation loop flow transmitters are classified as non-essential instruments.
These instruments are rigidly mounted and their ZPA (zero period acceleration) during a seismic event would be insignificant.
Thus Seismic Effects (SE) .N'ill not be considered for this calculation.
3.3 The values of the As Left Tolerance, CTOOL, and CREAD are controlled by 100% testing. Therefore, they are assumed to represent 3 sigma values, Reference
- 5. Calibrating equipment accuracies are taken as three (3) sigma values due to industry required periodic calibration with high accuracy standards traceable to NIST. The accuracy of the calibration standard is assumed the same as that of the accuracy of the testing equipment, unless otherwise specified.
3.4 The manufacturer does not specify Vendor drift for the RBM signal conditioning equipment (Reference 22). Therefore the value used for Vendor Drift (VD) will be assumed to be equal to the random portion of Vendor Accuracy for 6 months, on a 2-sigma basis (References 4 and 5). The long term Vendor Drift for the RBM trip unit, is assumed to be adequate for the allowed VD within the period between surveillance tests (assumed 3 months), based on GE's experience of this equipment's performance in BWR plants.3.5 The manufacturer does not specify Vendor drift for the recirculation loop flow transmitters (Reference 8).Therefore the value used for Vendor Drift (VD) will be assumed to be equal to the random portion of Vendor Accuracy for 6 months, on a 2-sigma basis (References 4 and 5).3.6 For ARTS operation, setpoints for the RBM with filter are considered (Reference 3). Table 10-5(b) of Reference 3 states, for these items that no limitations exist (setpoint does not affect the RWE analysis or the range is restricted by design to values considered in the RWE analysis).
The time delay (Tdl) and time constant (Tcl, Tc2) settings currently used are assumed to be valid, and it is assumed that no setpoint calculations (using setpoint methodology) are required for these timing functions.
3.7 The APRM/RBM Technical Specification (ARTS) improvement to the RBM does not degrade the instrument accuracy and drift of the system.3.8 The Radiation Effect (RE) to the equipment in the specified environment does not exceed the normal integrated dose specified in NPPD Environmental Design Conditions document (Reference 48).3.9 The variation of the LPRM ion chamber output current with +1 percent change of the ion chamber voltage in the saturated range is negligibly small or equal to zero (Reference 4).3.10 The APRM/RBM equipment is electrical and is not subject to Overpressure Effects (OPE). The recirculation loop flow transmitter has a design pressure rating of 2,000 psig (Reference 8), well above the normal and accident pressures that will be seen by this instrument.
3.11 It is assumed that the currently installed NMS equipment is the same as that originally supplied by GE other than normal PC board (by GE) electronic upgrades (References 30, 31, and 32).3.12 Unless otherwise specified, the vendor accuracies are considered to be 2 sigma values.3.13 The manufacturer does not specify a Power Supply Effect (PSE) for the APRM/RBM Technical Specification (ARTS) equipment and it is assumed to be included in the equipment accuracy.

Rev. No: 2 Date: A_-__ _ _ _ Date: / 3 iy9t 3.14 The APRMIRBM Technical Specification (ARTS) equipment is subject only to normal ambient environment and are not subject to harsh, post-accident conditions.
Trip and accident environmental conditions will be considered equal to normal ambient conditions for the purpose of this calculation.
Accuracy Temperature Effect (ATE) and Humidity Effect (HE) will not be considered.
3.15 Static Pressure Effects (SPE) are generally only applicable for differential pressure instruments (References 3 and 4). The SPE will only apply to the recirculation loop flow transmitter for calculations which involve flow signal inputs. Per References 8 and 52, for an assumed 1,000 psig process pressure, the SPE is equal to 0.88% span per 1,000 psig.3.16 The flow element inaccuracy is assumed by References 28,29 to be 2% of flow at normal temperature.
3.17 The As Left Tolerance (ALT) allowance for the APRM gain adjustment factor (AGAF) of greater than I (NPPD allowables are 0.98 to 1.02) is treated as an ALT of 1% power. This ALT is not included in the APRM Neutron Flux High Rod Block -Setdown or the Neutron Flux High Scram -Setdown, because AGAF is not performed at that low power. The ALT for the LPRMS is assumed to be the same as that of the APRMS, Reference 9.3.18 The ALT for the recirculation loop flow unit summer output is assumed equal to the sum of the two recirculation flow loop square root unit output, Reference 11.3.19 The APRMIRBM/Flow Unit equipment meets the requirements of the Susceptibility Design and Performance Specification, Reference
- 43. For normal plant operations with expected operational transient radio frequency or electromagnetic emissions, there are negligible RFI/EMI Effects (REE). Peak transient REE that may occur during plant maintenance that may affect performance of the APRM/RBMIFlow Unit equipment is not considered in this calculation.
APRM/RBM/Flow Unit equipment has been subjected to various testing for determination of effects from REE (References 45, 46 & 47) and the results of these tests show no adverse effect on the components from the introduce REE. Therefore, REE will not be considered for this calculation.
3.20 It is assumed that for all APRM and RBM electronics in the Control Room, the stated accuracy includes temperature effects, so the ATE and DTE values are assumed to be zero.3.21 Reference 38 gives a temperature accuracy of 0.01% per F for 30'F to 130'F for a crystal engineering calibrator.
Therefore, the temperature accuracy for calibration temperatures from 65 0 F to 104'F is: Temperature Accuracy = 0.0 I%/F x 39 0 F = 0.39% F.S..3.22 Leave Alone Tolerance (LAT) for the APRM and RBM functions is assumed to be equal to 1.25%power for consistency within this calculation.
The use of 1.25% is conservative since the current procedures (Ref. 9, 10, 1) have a LAT of +/- 1.25% or less for the identified APRM and RBM functions.
3.23 The use of an ALT of 1.25% for the APRM functions was used during the development of Revision 0 of this calculation in determination of Allowable Values. Changing this value would affect the Allowable Value determination, therefore this value is being maintained and is conservative with regards to the use of 1.00% in current calibration procedures.
The ALT for the APRM Rod Block Clamp function is assumed to be 1.25% for the purpose of this calculation.
This ALT is consistent with the related APRM functions.

- 1. APRM Channel Drift (6 month + 25% grace = 7.5 months)a) APRM Electronics Drift 1. LPRM and APRM Unit Drift The specified drift for the LPRM and APRM Units are: LPRM = 0.8 % FS /8 Weeks 2 sigma (Ref. 33)APRM = 0.5 % FS /700 Hours 2 sigma (Ref. 34)the drift times specified in the above specifications are longer than the weekly calibration interval of the APRM electronics based on heat balance and process computer calculations.
Therefore, conservatively the above drift values will be used as is (without reduction) in the drift calculation.
As done for VA in 4.1.3.3.1.1, the drift error due to LPRM cards is reduced by the square root of the minimum number of LPRMs in the APRM channel. Thus the APRM electronics drift error is: 0.8 2 VD (APRM and LPRM) = 2 _ij +(0.% 0.555 % FS= 0.555 x 1.25 % Power= 0.694 % Power 2. APRM Trip Unit Drift The drift error for the Trip Units was determined by analyzing field data by program Y-GEITAS (and GEITAS) as described in Appendix A.Results of this calculation show that the Trip Units drift for 7.5 month is 1.34 % Power: DTU (fixed trip) = 1.34 % Power DTU (flow-biased trip) = 1.34 %

Flow Unit Drift From Ref. 32 the flow unit drift is specified to be: DFU = 1.25 % FS /700 Hours Since the flow units are checked every month, it is assumed that the above drift is applicable for calculation.

RBM1 Channel (6 month + 25% grace = 7.5 months) Drift a) LPRM & RBM Unit Drift The RBM specifications (Ref. 22) does not specify drift for the RBM signal conditioning equipment, hence it is assumed that the drift for 6 months is equal to the vendor accuracy. (Ref. 5)Thus: VD (signal cond. equipment)
= VA x SQRT( 7.5 mo. /6 mo.)= 1.65% x SQRT (7.5 / 6)= 1.84 % Power As described in the APRM drift calculation above, the drift of the LPRM electronics is 0.8% FS (or 0.8 x 1.25 = 1.0% Power). Also, for RBM, the minimum number of LPRMs is 2. Therefore the overall drift of the RBM signal conditioning electronics is: 1.02 2 VD (RBM and LPRM) = 2 = 1.91 % Power b) RBM Trip Unit Drift For the RBM Trip Unit, the vendor specification (Ref. 22) states that the'i d drift for the maximum calibration period (assumed to be equal to the, maximum previous calibration of 3 months plus 25% grace, or 3.75 months) is 0.4 % FS.Drift (3.75 month) = (0.4% x 125) % Power = 0.50 % Power Therefore the drift for 7.5 months is: DTU (rbm trip) = 0.5% x SQRT (7.5 mo. /3.75 mo.)= 0.5% x SQRT (7.5 / 3.75)= 0.71%DTU (rbm power) = 0.5% x SQRT (7.5 mo. / 3.75 mo.)= 0.5% x SQRT (7.5 / 3.75)= 0.71 %Power Page 20 of 64 Nebraska Public Power District DESIGN CALCULATIONS SHEET NEDC: 98-024 Preparer:

The DVMs are sent off site for calibration against a standard.
Therefore the calibration tool error is assumed to be equal to the calibration standard error. The least accurate DVM calibration tool is used as bounding in this calculation. (References 37,40, 50)The recirculation flow loop transmitter is calibrated with a pneumatic calibrator which can be an Ametek or Crystal Engineering, per References 11, 21. The least accurate pneumatic calibrator tool is used as bounding in this calculation.
The pneumatic calibrator tool is in turn calibrated by an Ametek type RK deadweight tester, Reference

Overall APRM Channel Calibration Errors The overall 2 sigma calibration errors for the various APRM functions is obtained by SRSS addition of the 3 sigma loop errors due to calibration tools, calibration standards and As Left Tolerance (ALT). Since all the calibration equipment is well maintained and tested, it is assumed that the Ci and CjSTD values given above are 3 sigma values. Also, since the instruments are always kept within ALT after calibration, the ALT values listed in the calibration procedures (and shown in 4.1.3.5) represent 3 sigma values. Thus the overall 2 sigma calibration errors for the various APRM functions is obtained from: CL = 2 x SQRT{E(ALT/n) 2+ E(CTOOL/n) 2+ Z(CREAD/n) 2+ 1:(CSTD/n) 2 1 Page 29 of 64 Nebraska Public Power District DESIGN CALCULATIONS SHEET NEDC: 98-024 Preparer:

These values have been reported in Section 4.1.3.4.1.5 Determination of PEA and PMA Primary Element Accuracy (PEA): APRM Channel The PEA is a combination of the GE-LPRM sensor sensitivity and sensor non-linearity uncertainties.
The sensitivity of the detectors decreases vith neutron influence.
The average sensitivity loss, and its 2 sigma variation, for all GE LPRM detectors has been determined to be: Sensor Sensitivity loss = 0.33 % (bias term)+/- 0.20% (random term)(Reference 4, section 4.5)

9 Rev. No: 2 Date: /2-3o- Date: 12-3i-i5 The detector non-linearity and its 2 sigma variation (in the power range) has been determined to be: Sensor Non-linearity
= 0.49% (bias term)+/- 1% (random term) (Reference 4, section 4.5)The first part of these detector errors represent bias type errors which apply to all detectors whereas the second part are random errors that represent variability amongst the sensors.Assuming a worst case senario where the APRM has the minimum number of operational detectors, the PEA, which on a percent of power basis, is simply obtained by adding the bias terms and taking the SRSS of the random terms, is calculated below. In the calculation, the random error is reduced by the square root of the minimum number of operable LPRMS to one APRM channel which are 11 per Reference 35.Minimum number of LPRMS per APRM = 11 Therefore, PEA = (0.33 + 0.49) +/- (1/ sqrt I )(sqrt (0.202 +12)or PEA (APRM) = 0.82 +/- 0.31 % power The first part of the PEA (0.82%) is treated as a drift term (DPEA) and the second part (+/-0.3 1%) as an accuracy term (APEA).The PEA value for the Westinghouse LPRM sensors installed at the Cooper site is given as 0.7 +/- 1% per Reference
- 52. In the present calculations the GE LPRM PEA error values will be used as they are more conservative.
RBM Channel PEA is similar to that for the APRMS and equals 0.33% (bias term) +/- 0.20% (random term)and 0.49% (bias term) +/- 1% (random term), respectively In the calculation, the random error is reduced by the square root of the minimum number of operable LPRMS to one RBM channel which are 2 per Reference 35.Minimum number of LPRMS per RBM = 2 Therfore, PEA = (0.33 + 0.49) +/- (1/ sqrt 2 )(SQRT (0.202 +12)or PEA (RBM) = 0.82 +/- 0.72% power The first part of the PEA (0.82%) is treated as a drift term (DPEA) and the second part (i 0.72%) as an accuracy term (APEA).The value PEA value for the Westinghouse LPRM sensors installed at the Cooper site is given as 0.7 +/- 1% per Reference
- 52. Since the GE value is larger than the Westinghouse LPRM uncertainty value, the GE value will be used in the calculations.

A'&e ( Rev. No: 2 Date: IL Date: / .?i-9i Flow Unit The PEA for the flow channel venturis is included in the flow channel uncertainty, therefore no additional uncertainty is necessary, it follows that, PEA (Flow) =0 Process Measurement Accuracy (PMA): APRM Channel The PMA is a combination of the APRM tracking and the uncertainty due to neutron noise.Considering the APRM neutron flux, for the MSIV closure transient event, the APRM tracking error is 1.11% and the uncertainty due to neutron noise is typically 2.0%, Reference 4. Flow noise is estimated to be 1.0% rated flow (0.66% power) per References 52 and 54. l P The tracking error is the uncertainty of the maximum deviation of APRM readings with LPRM failures or bypasses during a power transient.
The neutron noise is the global neutron flux noise in the reactor core with a typical dominant frequency of approximately 0.3 to 0.5 Hertz and a typical maximum peak-to-peak amplitude of approximately 5 to 10 percent.For neutron flux PMA = 2 x SQRT [(2.0/2)2
+ (.L1 1/2)2] = 2.29% power (fixed)For flow biased, PMA = 2 x SQRT[(I.1 1/2)2+ (2/2)2+ (0.66/2)2]
=2.38% power (flow-biased) l 6 RBM The PMA of the RBM is a combination of the RBM tracking error and the uncertainty due to neutron noise. The uncertainty due to neutron noise is estimated to be the same as the APRM or 2.0% (2-sigma).
The error calculated by comparing the reading with all LPRMS operable to readings with different combinations of LPRM failure is estimated to be within 1% (3-sigma) per Reference
- 52. A 3-sigma confidence level is used because the 1% value is based on testing.PMA = 2 x SQRT (2.0/2)2 + (1.0/3)2]

Based on References 5, 7, this margin is given by: SM = (1.645/N)(SRSS OF RANDOM TERMS) + BIAS TERMS Where N represents the number of standard deviations with which all the random terms are characterized (normally 2 standard deviations) and 1.645 adjusts the results to a 95% probability (one-sided normal).The error terms are calculated for trip conditions, and the margin becomes SM = ( .645/N) x SQRT (ALT 2+ CL 2+ DL2+ PMA 2+ PEA 2)+ (X BIAS TERMS)

The method of avoiding violations of the Allowable Value is to determine the errors that may be present during surveillance testing, examine the margin between the calculated values of NTSPI and AV, and then adjust NTSPI to provide added margin if necessary.
The following equation is used to determine the errors that would be expected to contribute to a potential LER situation.
Sigma(LER)
= (/N)(SRSS Of RANDOM TERMS)Where N represents the number of standard deviations with which the random terms are characterized (normally 2 standard deviations).
4.1.7.4.1 Random Terms Included In LER Avoidance The Random Terms that should be included in the LER Avoidance evaluations include: Loop Accuracy under Normal plant Condition (ALN)Loop Calibration Error (CL)Loop Drift (DL)Process and Primary Element Errors are not included because calibration and surveillance testing are performed using input signals which simulate the process and primary element input.Sigma(LER)= (I/2)SQRT (ALN 2+ CL + DL 2)

This value of Z is then used to determine the probability of violating the Allowable Value by treating the error distribution as a random Normal Distribution, and then determining the area under the curve of the Normal Distribution corresponding to the number of standard deviations represented by Z.4.1.7.4.3 GE Recommendation GE recommends that a nominal probability of 90% for avoiding an LER condition be used as the acceptance criterion for the LER Avoidance (or Tech Spec Action Avoidance)
Evaluation.
For a single instrument channel, the value of Z(LER) corresponding to this 90% criterion is 1.29 or greater. For an instrument channel which is part of a multiple channel logic system a value of Z(LER) greater than 0.81 can assure 90% Tech Spec Action Avoidance criterion.

Thus, according to Reference 4, the nominal setpoint is: NTSP = NTSP2 +/- LAT Where the LAT is the SRSS combination of the leave alone tolerances for all the devices in the loop.4.1.7.6 Establishing Leave Alone Zones The LAT for both APRM and RBM functions within this calculation is +/- 1.25%Power. (Assumption 3.22)4.1.7.7 Required Limits Evaluation The Required Limits Evaluation calculates an adjustment to NTSP for the case when NTSP is set at the center of the leave alone zone. The adjustment assures that with the stack-up of the errors (including leave alone tolerances) for all the devices in the loop, there is enough margin for Technical Specification Action Avoidance (or LER avoidance).

The method of avoiding spurious trips is to determine the errors that may be present during normal plant operation and examine the margin between the worst applicable operational transient for which trip is not required, and the lower limit (NTSP3) of selected setpoint.The following equation is used to determine the errors that would be expected to contribute to a potential spurious trip.Sigma(STA)

To meet spurious scram avoidance criterion (Ref. 4)Z(STA) > 1.65 If the spurious scram criterion is not violated, no further adjustments are necessary.

5j 7 4j Date: 1997 Date: 2 3 l f -6S APPENDIX A APRM Trip Unit Drift Data Summary A. Method The calibration data for the APRM trip units was analyzed by an Excel spreadsheet program (called Y-GEITAS) which was programmed to carry out a statistical analysis of the data similar to that performed by the GE Proprietary Program called GEITAS (General Electric Instrument Trending Analysis System).Only drift data for the APRM trip units was analyzed, since for the APRM system the APRM chassis electronics are calibrated every week (using power distribution calculations by the process computer), and only the trip units are calibrated at the extended calibration interval (7.5 months based on a 6 months interval and the 1.25 grace factor). Moreover, only data for the fixed neutron trip was analyzed, and it was assumed that since this drift was applicable to all APRM trip setpoint calculations.
The program Y-GEITAS provides a quantitative estimate of instrument drift (D), for a specified calibration interval.
The methodology for Y-GEITAS drift analysis is the same as GEITAS (described in Reference 3), however for Y-GEITAS only adjacent rather than overlapping intervals were used, assuring complete data is independence.
There was sufficent data for this calculation because data was taken for 6 trip units over a 6 year period. An examination of the data showed that there had been no adjustments in the trip settings, so the raw data provided an accurate represention how the instrument drifted over the 6 years, once the accuracy and calibration errors (which are present in every calibration data point) were accounted for. Briefly, the Y-GEITAS program compiles a list of all data pairs separated by a particular calibration interval which do not overlap each other, and calculates the change in calibration value for each pair. These are called the Observed In-Service Differences (OISD), and for each calibration interval a statistically significant number (N) of OlSDs are needed to predict drift for that interval.
For Y-GEITAS each OISD is a separate and independent measure of the drift of that instrument for the specified calibration interval.
Y-GEITAS then performs a number of statistical analyses on the OISD data to compute the values needed for a statistical evaluation of the drift over this interval.
Including in this computation is the average OISD, and a measure of the variance in this value about zero called SMAZ (second moment about zero). Expressed as a percent of the instrument span (to make it dimensionless), the square root of the observed SMAZ is: SQRT(SMAZ)obs
= (100/span) x SQRT 2:X(OISDi
-OISD,,v)2/(N ]) + (OISDvg The numerical value of the span used in this equation is not important, since it cancels out in the determination of drift.Since, as explained in Ref 3, drift is random and can be both positive and negative for any particular calibration interval, square-root of SMAZ is a measure of the "apparent" drift for the calibration interval.The "true" instrument drift can not be directly measured because the measurements include errors due to the accuracy of the instrument, the calibration accuracy, and the errors due to temperature effects within the calibration temperature range. Y-GEITAS computes an allowable value for SQRT(SMAZ) based on an initial 2 sigma estimate of true instrument drift (VD) for the specified calibration interval, and other known instrument errors. The calculational algorithm is as follows: SQRT(SMAZ),.:
0 Wbl = (100/span) x (112) x SQRT(2VA'
+ 2C + VD + DTE 2)Where A, C, and DTE are the accuracy, calibration error and drift temperature effect for the instrument, all 2 sigma values.

<79 J Date: 1997 Date: 4 3 2 t -1 A ft considered in this calculation, so only the accuracy and calibration error for the trip units are used in this formula. Y-GEITAS then computes the Confirmation Ratio (CR) (defined as the ratio of the experimentally observed to allowable SQRT(SMAZ)), which is a measure of how well the drift has been estimated, assuming the accuracies are estimated correctly and the sample size is adequate.CR = SQRT(SMAZ)obsved
/ SQRT(SMAZ)lloable To determine drift D, the value of SQRT(SMAZ)lowab1c is adjusted, by adjusting the drift (VD), so that CR is close to unity.A2 Drif The 7.5 month drift for this calculation was obtained by examining the confirmation ratio for 7.5 month calibration interval.
If CR was greater than I, then the drift value for that interval was assumed to be too low, and if significantly less than I, the drift was assumed to be too high. The drift input to GEITAS (in terms of the equivalent 6 month drift) was then manually adjusted until the CR was less than one and as close to unity as reasonable.
The drift input was made in terms of the equivalent 6 month drift (VD(6 mo)), which when extrapolated to 7.5 month calibration interval according to: VD 7 5= VD 6 SQRT(7.5/6), produced an acceptable CR. Some engineering judgment was used to estimate the acceptable value of CR and hence the drift value used in the setpoint calculation.
The calculational procedure for determining the 7.5 month drift was as follows: 1. The observed drift for 7.5 months was calculated as shown below: D(observed) 7 5= SQRT((4 x (SQRT(SMAZ),5 x (span/I 00) / CR)2 -2(A2 + C ))2. Since the observed drift was calculated for 7.5 m6riths, no extrapolation was required: D(extrapolated) 7 5= D(observed) 7.5 The drift values are treated as 2 sigma values, because the inputs that go into the drift calculation are 2 sigma.A.3 Results Results of Y-GEITAS analysis are shown in Table A- I, and A-2. Since this calculation was only for the APRM Trip Units, the VA, C and DTE values used in the calculation (and shown in Tables A-I, and A-2)are specifically for the Trip Units and were obtained from the body of this report. VA = 1.25 % was obtained from 4.1.3.3.4.1; C = 0.157 % was obtained from 4.1.3.6.3.1; and DTE = 0 was from assumption 3.20. Table A-I shows a summary of the SMAZ and CR calculations for the desired extended interval of 7.5 months. Results are also shown for the 3.75 months calibration interval for confirmation.
Table A-2 uses the results of the 7.5 month "apparent" drift calculation from site calibration data (Table A-I), to obtain the true instrument drift D for the required 7.5 months calibration interval using the method described above.The results for APRM trip units are: VD 7.5= 1.34 % power D, 5 = 1.34 % power Nebraska Public Power District DESIGN CALCULATIONS SHEET NPPD Generated Calculation Sheet A3 of A7 Review of Non-NPPD Generated Calculation Calc No: NEDC 92-50S, Rev. 3 NM-NAM-AR 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 Prepared By: NM-NAM-AR 5, 6 Setpoint Calculation Date: 1997 Company's Name: General Electric Co.NPPD Reviewer:

There is a flow transmitter in each loop and the output from each transmitter goes to a square root converter and then to a summer. The output of the summer provides a signal proportional to the total recirculation flow.The flow (Q) in each flow loop is proportional to 1AP measured by the loop flow transmitter.
The transmitter puts out a 10 -50 ma signal proportional to AP, and this signal goes to the square root converter which outputs a signal S proportional to the JZP .Thus for each loop: S = Kx /A .(I)where K is a constant.
The error dS at the output of the square root converter due to an error d (AP) in the transmitter is: dS = (K/2) x d (AP) / A (2)For a constant transmitter error d (AP) , the dS error is a function of the flow and is larger for low flows than for high flows. Assuming that the errors from the 2 transmitters are independent, they can be added by the SRSS method, so the total input error (dST ) from the flow transmitters to the summer is: dS.= JI dS = Fi x (K/2) x d (AP) / VI .(3)The summer output (V )is proportional to the sum of the outputs from the 2 square root converters, and for equal outputs from the square root converters, can be written as: V= Gx2S = Gx2Kx AP (4)where G is a constant.
The summer output error due to total input error dST from the square root converters is: dV=GxdST = Gx 2dS = G x J x(K/2)xd(AP)/iP (5)Combining equations (4) and (5) we get: dV 1 I d (AP)-x-x (6)V = 2 2 AP For the equipment used in the flow loop, full scale output corresponds to: Maximum flow = 125% flow VAP(Full Scale) = jAPF) = 408.9 in WC V(max) = 10 volts Nebraska Public Power District Sheet B2 of B3 DESIGN CALCULATIONS SHEET Calc No: NEDC 92-50S, Rev. 3 NPPD Generated Calculation Review of Non-NPPD Generated Calculation NM-NAM-AR 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9 Prepared By:_NM-NAM-AR 5, 6 Date: 1997 Company's Name: General Electric Co.Setpoint Calculation Checked By: NPPD Reviewer:m7 , Date: 1997 Date.L .23r / ft AA Therefore:
l0=Gx2Kx J l ,orK=5/{Gx AP(FS)Substituting this value of K into equation (4) shows that V for any arbitrary flow (or AP) is: V = x A / A-P(FS) (Volts)This yields: AP = (V 2 00) x AP(FS) (7)Substituting equation (7) into equation (6) gives: dV=-x5Ox (A) x (Volts)ii AP(FS) V Let the total transmitter error as a fraction of full scale (or full span) be defined as AFT, then: d (AP)AP(FS)and dV= x50xA r-x (Volts) (8)ii2 V This error is a function of the voltage V (or flow), and is twice as high at 50% flow than at 100% flow.However, to enable a constant error to be used for setpoint calculation throughout the range of interest, a constant error must be chosen. For the APRM flow biased setpoint calculation the error at 75% flow (or V= 6 volts) has been chosen because it is conservative compared to flow which gives 100% power. At lower flows there is more margin in the analytic limit, and the contribution of the flow error is not significant.
Thus the error for APRM flow biased setpoint calculation is: dV (for setpoint calculation)
= I x5OxAFT xi = 5.893 x A~r (Volts) (9),F2 ~6 The corresponding error in flow is given by multiplying equation (9) by the volts required to get 100% flow.As mentioned earlier: V(100% flow) = 8 volts Thus the flow error due to the flow transmitters is: FT Error= 8 x100 (% flow)8 FT Error = 59 x 00 xA F = 73.66 x Ar (% flow) (10)Note that AFr is the total fractional transmitter error and includes error due to vendor accuracy, SPE, ATE etc.

Assuming the errors from the 2 loops are independent they can be combined using the SRSS method. Also noting that the total flow is equal to the sum of the flows from the 2 loops the total Flow Element Error is: FE Error = i x FE Error in % flow-per loop (% flow) (11)c) Flow Unit Error The Flow Unit, consisting of two square root converters and a summer, has an error which must also be considered in determining the overall flow loop error. This value is given in the specifications as percent of full scale output, and can be converted to % flow by multiplying by the ratio of the output corresponding to 100 %flow and the full scale output.FU Error = FU Error as % FS x (full scale volts / volts for 100% flow)For the equipment used, the error is: FU Error = FU Error as % FS x (10/8) (% flow) (12)13.2Results a) Flow Transmitter Error As shown in 4.1.3.3.4.1, the error for the GEMAC555 transmitter is: AFT = 1.00 % span. = 0.01 fraction of span Thus, the corresponding flow error for setpoint calculation from equation (10) is: FT Error = 73.66 x 0.01 = 0.7366% flow This value is used as a 2 sigma value in the setpoint calculations.
b) Flow Element Error As shown in 4.1.3.3.4.1, the flow element error for the venturis used in the plant is: FE Error per loop = 2.0 % flow per loop Therefore, from equation (11)FE Error -x 2 % = 1.414 % flow c) Flow Unit Error As shown in 4.1.3.3.4.1, the flow unit error is: FU Error as % FS = 2 %Therefore, from equation (12)FU Error = 2 x (0/8) = 2.5 % flow I ATTACHMENT 3 LIST OF REGULATORY COMMITMENTS Correspondence Number: NLS2003111 The following table identifies those actions committed to by Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) in this document.
