,j MYAPC cooling water, and the RER het6i; exchanger E-3B is supplied with 4,000 to i

(

5,000 gym from the secondary compenent cooling system.

While in the recirculation mode, tho two containment spray pumps are each capable of pumping approximately .J,700 gpm through the residual. heat removal exchangers; 700 spm flow to the charging pumps while the remaining 3,000 gpm are directed to the spray header. Because the spray chemical addition and the refueling tanks are interconnected, the concentrated sodium hydroxide solution is added proportionally to the water which leaves the refueling water tank.

The concentrated spray chemical solution has a higher density than the borated water stored'in the refueling water tank; th.erefore, their levels are not equal when the liquids are in hydrostatic balance.

6.3.5 Desien Evaluation i I

The containment spray system consists of two completely independent systems, each of which is designed for 100 percent of the required capability. A )

third, full-capacity pump, together with valves and interconnecting piping, allows spray or low pressure safety injection pump maintenance to be performed with no loss of system reliability.

The spray pump design is compatible with the low pressure safety injection duty require.aents of the low pressure safety injection pumps, but not for residual heat removal duty. The spray pumps are located in the safeguards building outside the containment. Each pump cubicle is an individual,

~

shielded compartment to provide maximum reliability and accessibility for maintenance and repair. On a loss of off-site power, the diesel generators are used to supply emergency power to the safeguards active components.

6-15 Rev. 2, 9

e MYAPC Reutine testing ensures the operability of the pumps. The attention given to the selection of these pumps, the redundancy of power supplies, the design margins, and the fact that three full-capacity pumps are installed, assure a high degree of pump availability.

The residual heat removal heat exchangers are designed to section III, Class C, of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, and are of welded const ruction .

4 The containment spray system operates at a higher pressure than the component cooling water system.

The containment spray pumps are always provided with greater than the minimum required NPSH to assure reliable pump operation during the safety injection and recirculation modes of operation following a major less-of-coolant

( incident.

The safeguards sump design consists of four barriers which provide strainer protection and prevent debris f rom entering the rectreulation system. In addition, insulation debris screens have been added to erane wall openings.

Sump screens have been sized to pass no particle larger thaa I/16 inch and therefore reduce the potential for clogging of spray nozzle orifices in the recirculation phase.

i 6-16 Rev. 2, 3, 12 j l

NYApC The.bar screen consists of 3/8-inch stainless steel rods spaced 1 inch on center. Inside the bar screen are the flat screens shown in Figure 6.3-2 which are attached to 3-inch wide channels, coarse mesh 3/4-inch square openings on the outer face and fine mesh 3/16-inch openings on the inner face.

The partition screen shown in Figure 6.3-3 which is placed in the center of the sump, thus dividing it in half, has a coarse mesh screen on either side of the center fine mesh screen. Its primary purpose is to ensure full-flow operation even though the screens in one-half of the sump collapse or plug.

Finally, fine mesh 3/16-inch opening cylindrical sump screens, shown in Figure 6.3-4, used over each of the two suction pipes in the sump bottom provide additional strainer protection and constitute a fourth barrier to keep debris out of the recirculation system.

6.3.6 Test and Inspections periodic tests and inspections are performed during normal operation and refueling operations to ensure the integrity and operability of the spray systems.

The two residual heat exchangers, normally used to remove residual and decay heat during plant shutdowns, are used to cool water pumped from the-containment sump during recirculation. The units are designed to accept 70*F to 300'F transient in 5 seconds. These units are described in more detail in Section 9.9.

6.2.4 Desian Evaluation v The design basis and system requirements during a loss-of-coolant incident are met with flow to the core from two of three safety injection tanks and two-thirds the flow delivery of one charging pump and one low pressure safety injection pump. The active components of the safety injection system which are required to operate during this incident are location outside of the.

containment, except for the MOVs associated with hot leg injection. The required MOVs are qualified for operation in the post-LOCA environment to which they are exposed. The system is designed to Class I seismic criteria to withstand the appropriate seismic loads simultaneously with other applicable loads without losing operational integrity. During recirculation, one charging pump 6-7 Rev. 7, 11

i j 2 .- A pumping and water storage system with redundant components will inject i- borated water into the reactor coolant system providing the core protection for small reactor coolant system breaks. The system is  ;

capable of keeping the core covered with borated water while core cooling continues after the passive system supply has been injected. In addition, this system will remove reactor core decay and stored heat during long-term operation af ter the reactor coolant system rupture. I Instrumentation and sampling provisions allow monitoring of the recirculated coolant.

5. All active components which must function for core protection can be tested during normal reactor operation.
6. Instrument sensors are tested for function at operating conditions.
7. Extensive shop and pre-operational tests are performed to verify component and system operation.

8. All of the active components, except for three valves associated with hot leg-injection. are located outside the containment where they are protected from incident-generated missiles and from post-incident environmental conditions.
9. The three safety injection lines are arranged such that movement 1

of a ruptured reactor coolant pipe will not cause a subsequent

failure of injection lines feeding into other coolant loops.

i

11. All components, piping, power supplies, etc.. in the safety i

injection support systems are designed to Class I seismic criteria.

12, Pumps and valve operators are arranged so that any leak in the safety injection system will not flood out or shut down the entire system.

13. The minimum available NPSH for the LPSI pumps during the safety  ;

injection mode of operation following a major loss-of-coolant '

accident always exceed that required by the pumps. A momentary, inadvertent loss of NPSH would result in a momentary reduction in '

flow and no damage to the pump.

14. The sa'ety injection tank isolatio valves are motor-operated fr:m diesel generator supplied buses. Power to the motor and the motor controls will be locked off at the motor control center. The control switches for the valves are key-locked and operated only under administrative control. The position of each valve is continuously indicated at the main control board by a separate power supply. A third power supply is used to alarm in the control room if any safety injection tank isolation valve is not open.

The effect. eness of the safety injection system to satisfy the criteria stated for core protection is demonstrated by the analysis presented in Section 14.

The steam line break analysis is presented in Section 14.11 of this report. '

r 6.2.2.2 Low Pressure Safety Iniection System The low pressure safety injection (LPSI) system is designed to inject borated water into the reactor vessel to flood and cool the core upon the depressurization of the reactor coolant system following a major loss-of-coolant accident. This system includes three safety injection tanks and two LPSI pumps.

The safety injection tanks are approximately 46 percent filled with borated water and are provided with a 225 psig nitrogen cover gas. The gas pressure provides the driving head required to transfer the tank liquid into the reactor vessel when the reactor cooloot system pressure falls below that of the cover gas. This borated water flows through two check valves located in  ;

the line connecting each tank to the reactor coolant system.

The two LPSI pumps are also used to inject borated water from the refueling water tank into the reactor vessel upon depressurization of the reactor coolant system. A spare pump is provided which can be used either as an LPSI pump or alternately as a containment spray pump (see Section 6.3). This pump can be lined up from either one of the two suction headers from the refueling i water tank.

6.2.2.3 System Actuation All safety injection equipment starts on a safety injection actuation signal derived from the instrumentation logic described in Section 7 of this report. .

Upon a containment pressure of 5 psig or upon a low pressurizer pressure of l

1.585 ps.ig, the instrumentation circuity will produce the SIAS required to  !

automatically start the safety injection pumps and position the valves for i borated water injection to the reactor coolant system.

The low-low pressurizer pressure safety injection initiation instrumentation has been designed te provide the necessary protection for the loss-of-coolant accident. This instrumentation meets the standards of quality, redundancy and independence rr. quired for functioning under all adverse plant conditions experienced Curing a loss-of-coolant accident. The containment high pressure safety injection initiation instrumentation was provided es a backup trip for those large breaks which might produce severe transients in the reactor coolant system. Furthermore, these instrumentation setpoints are adequate to protect the core over the entire spectrum of break sizes.

Both high pressure and low pressure headers of the safety injdction, systems feed into the three reactor coolant loops as shown in Figure 6.3-1. The feed lines of the high pressure header join the transport lines from the low pressure safety injection header penetrating the containment to connect into I the safety injection tank outlet to the cold leg of each loop.

As previously stated, the safety injection systems also function during post accident core cooling. This function is initiated either by operator action or by a recirculation actuation signal derived from RWST low level switches. Upon such a signal, the containment spray pump suctions are transferred from the RWST to the containment sump. This signal also stops the LPSI pumps and transfers the HPSI pump suctions from the RWST to the outlets of the residual heat exchangers. The spray pumps must be operating to satisfy the NPSH requiremtnts of the HPSI pumps during the recirculation mode of operation.

The'HPSI ,ystem also functions during pcst accident core cooling tc supply injection to the loop hot legs through the loop fill header piping. Hot leg injection is initiated manually by the operators at 15 to 19 hours2.199074e-4 days <br />0.00528 hours <br />3.141534e-5 weeks <br />7.2295e-6 months <br /> following the accident. The purpose of hot leg injection is to prevent the precipitation of boron in the core in the event of a cold leg break. The 1 6-4 Rev. 2, 10, 11 i j

HYAPC operators manually operate valves to bypass flow from one of two safety injection trains to the loop fill header piping and into the loop hot legs.

6.2.3 System components 6.2.3.1 Hich Pressure Safety Iniection Pumps The HPSI pumps are horizontal, multi-stage pumps. A full description of the HPSI or charging pumps is given.in Section 9.1 of this report.

6.2.3.2 Low Pressure Safety Iniection Pumps The two low pressure safety injection pumps have two stages and are of the vertical deep well type. They are provided with mechanical face seals backed up by a throttle bushing. The seals are designed for operation at 400'F and are provided with a seal leak-off co'.lecting system. The pumps are designed and tested under thermal transients that are more severe than those which could occur even under incident conditions. Table 5.2.1 summarizes the LPSI pump design data.

6.2.3.3 Safety Iniection Tanks The three safety injection tanks are sized to ensure that two of the three tanks will provide sufficient water to recover the core following the most severe loss-of-coolant incident. The tanks contain borated water at a minimum boron concentration of 1,720 ppm and they are pressurized with nitrogen at 230 psig (+10 psig, -25 psig).

Level and pressure instrumentation is provided to monitor the availability of the tanks during plant operation. Provisions have been made for sampling, filling, draining, venting and correcting boron concentration. The tanks are carbon s, teel internally clad with stainless steel. Design, construction and overpressure protection are in accordance with the ASME Code,Section III, Class C. The data summary for the safety injaction tanks is given in Table 6.2.2.
