3.3 EMERGENCY CORE COOLING SYSTEM (Continued)

-*---- --~--'---

Basis

_JfSp_ecificati.on-a .. and-b.- Gannot be-met, an orderly shutdown-shall be initiated and the reactor sha 11 be in hot shutdown condition within 12 hours1.388889e-4 days <br />0.00333 hours <br />1.984127e-5 weeks <br />4.566e-6 months <br />, and cold shutdown within the next 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

. The norma 1 procedure for starting the reactor is, first, to heat the primary cool ant to near operating temperature by running the primary coolant pumps. The reactor is then made critical 1bl withdrawing control rods and diluting boron in the primary coolant. < With this mode of start-up, the energy stored in the primary coolant during the approach to criticality is substantially equal to that during power operation and,

  • therefore, all engineered safety features and auxiliary cooling systems are required to be fully operable. During low-temperature physics tests, there is a negligible amount of stored energy in the primary coolant; therefore, an accident comparable in severity to the design basis accident is not possible and the engineered safeguards'systems are not required.

The SIRW tank contains a minimum of 250,000 gallons of water containing 1720 ppm boron. This is sufficient boron concentration to provide a 5%

shutdown margin with all control rods withdrawn and a new core at a temperature of 60°F.

Heating steam is provided to maintain the tank above 40°F to prevent freezing. The 1% boron (1720 ppm) solution will not precipitate out above 32°F. The source of steam during normal plant operation is extraction steam line in the turbine cycle.

The limits for the safety injection tank pressure and volume assure the required amount of water injection during an accident and are based on values used for the accident analy\es. The minimum 174-inch level corresponds to a volume of 1040 ft and the maximum 200-inch level corresponds to a volume of 1176 ft 3

  • Pri-0r to the time the reactor is brought critical, the valving of the safety injection system must be checked for correct alignment and appropriate va 1ves 1ocked. Si nee the system is used for shutdown coo 1i ng, the valving will be changed and must be properly aligned prior to start-up of the re~ctor~ -*

The operable status of the various systems and components is to be demonstrated by per.iodic tests. A large fraction of these tests will be perfonned while the reactor is operating in the power range. If a component is found to be inoperable, it will be possible in most cases to effect repairs and restore. the system to full operability within a relativelj~short time. For a singl~ component to be inoperable does not negate the ability of the system to perform its function, but it reduces the redundancy provided in the reactor design and thereby limits the 3-31 Amendment No. 117, TSPR9011

demonstrate that the maximum fuel clad temperatures that could occur over the break size spectrum are well below the melting temperature of zirconium (3300.F).

Malfunction of the Low Pressure Safety Injection Flow control valve could defeat the Low Pressure Injection feature of the ECCS; therefore, it is disabled in the 'open' mode (by isolating the air supply) during plant operation. This action assures that it will not block flow during Safety Injection.

The inadvertent clo-sing of'. any one ~f. the Safety' Injection bottle isolation valves in conjunction with a LOCA has not been analyzed. To provide assurance that thi~ will not occur, these valves are electrically locked open by a key switch in the control room. In addition, prior to critical the valves are checked open, and then the 480 volt breakers are opened. Thus, a failure of a breaker and a switch are required for any of the valves to close.

<260°F or the shutdown cooling isolation valves are open eliminates PCS mass additions due to inadvertent HPSI pump starts. Both HPSI pumps

  • starting in conjunction with a charging/letdown imbalance may cause 10CFRSO Appendix G 1imits to be exceeded when the PCS temperature is

<260° F. When the PCS temperature is ~ 430° F, the pressurizer safety valves ensure that the PCS pressure will not exceed 10CFRSO Appendix G.

The requirement to have both HPSI trains operable above 325°F provides added assurance that the effects of a LOCA occuring under LTOP conditions would be mitigated. If a LOCA occurs when the primary system temperature is less than or equal to 325°F, the pressure would drop to the level where low pressure safety injection can prevent core damage. Therefore, when the PCS temperature is ~260° F and s325

  • F operation of the HPS I system would not cause the 10CFRSO Appendix G_ limits to be exceeded nor is HPSI system operation necessary for core cooling.
  • HPSI pump testing with the HPSI p~mp ~~nual discharge valve closed is permitted since the closed valve eliminates the possibility of pump testing being the cause of a mass addition to the PCS.

Dear Mr. Gerling:

Subject:

STANDARD REVIEW PLAN CHAPTER 15 DISPOSmON OF EVENTS REVIEW FOR CHANGES TO TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION LIMITS ON PALISADES SAFETY INJECTION TANK LIOUIO LEVELS

**o.* **.;;iv

Reference:

1) ANF (H. G. Shaw) Proposal ANF;CP-2021~ to R.. .'J; Gerlin' (CPCo),

dated March 21, 1990. * -

2) CPCo Letter (R. J. Gerling) to ANF (H. G. Shaw), dated March 27, 1990.
3) ANF-88-107, Revision 1, PALISADES LARGE BREAK LOCA/ECCS ANALYSIS WITH INCREASED RADIAL PEAKING, February 1990..

An evaluation of the effects of proposed changes to Technical Specification limits on Palisades Safety Injection Tank (SIT) levels (174 and 202 inches, respectively,* for minimum arid maximum allowed SIT levels) has been completed. This work was performed per the Reference 1 proposal, as authorized by Reference 2. The evaluation included a Standard Review Plan Chapter 15 Disposition of Events Review for those changes. The results of the review demonstrate that no additional analyles are required due to the SIT levet limit changes.

The only events which are potentially affected by SIT level changes are Event Classification 15.6:

Decreases in Reactor Coolant lnv~ntory. The large break toss of coolant transient (LBLOCA) is the only Classification 15.6 Event which will completely drain the SITs, so it is the only event which could be affected by the changes in SIT levet limits.

The reference LSLOCA/ECCS analysis reported in ANF-88-107 (Ref. 3) indicates that flow from the intact loop Safety Injection Tanks, SIT lines, and cold legs keeps the downcomer full for about 30 seconds after the peak cladding temperature (PCT) is reached. Reduction of the minimum SIT levet to 174 Inches does not cause the downcomer levet to faH prior to the time that

Mr. R. J. Gertlng HGS:117:90 April 11 , 1990

__ e_a.g§t_.2 ___. - --- ----- -------------- -~ --- - ---- --

PCT is reached, so there is no impact on either downcomer head or PCT for the transient.

Increasing the maximum allowed SIT level to 202 inches has no impact on the LBLOCA analysis, because the length of SIT flow time would be extended beyond the time in the limiting analysis.

These conclusions apply to all break sizes reported in Reference 3. The PCT of 2114°F reported in Reference 3 for the limiting break size and axial power shape remains bounding for the proposed TechnicaJ Specification changes to SIT level limits.
