1.0 INTRODUCTION

I . .

The Core Operating Limits Report provides the limits per cycle for operation of the Cooper Nuclear Station through Cycle 18. It includes the limits for the Rod l Block Monitor Upscale Set Point, Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHOR), and Minimum Critical Power Ratio (MCPR.) If any of these limits is exceeded, action will be taken as defined in the Improved Technical Specifications.

l The core operating limit values have been determined using the NRC-approved methodologies given in References 1,2,10, and 11 and have been established such that all applicable plant safety analysis limits are met.

i 2.0 CORE OPERATING LIMITS Cooper Nuclear Station shall operate within the bounds of the below limits / values. The applicable Improved Technical Specifications are referenced in each subsection.

2.1 Rod Block Monitor Unscale Set Point The Improved Technical Specifications reficct a reference to Allowable Values for the Rod Block Monitor (RBM) upscale (power referenced) trip level setting, found in Reference 9, are as follows:

Lowest Rated Low Trip Set Intermed Trip Set High Trip Set MCPR Limit Point (LTSP) Point (ITSP) Point (HTSP_)

(LPSPsPslPSP) (IPSPsPsHPSP) (HPSPsP) 21.20 s114.0/125 s108.5/125 s104.5/125 21.25 s117.0/125 s112.5/125 s107.5/125 21.30 s120.0/125 s115.0/125 s110.5/125 LPSP, IPSP, and HPSP are the Low Power Set Point, Intermediate Power Set Point, and High Power Set Point, respectively.

The trip level settings associated with this MCPR limit have been generically calculated and verified to bound the Rod Withdrawal Error l Analysis for Cycle 18 operation. ,

3.3.2.1 l l Cycle 18 Revision 6 -2 08/05/98

( ,

2.2 Averane Planar Linear IIcat Generation Limits The most limiting lattice APLHGR value (excluding natural uranium) for each fuel bundle as a function of Planar Average Exposure, core power, l and core flow is calculated by multiplying the value from Figures 1,2,3, and 4 by the smaller of the MAPLHGR Flow Factor, MAPFACr (Figure

5) or the Power-Dependent MAPLHGR Factor, MAPFACr, (Figure 6).

APLHGR values determined with the SAFER /GESTR-LOCA methodology are given in References 2,3, and 5 while M APFACr and MAPFACp were detennined in Reference 8.

The fuel bundles referred to in Figures 1,2,3, and 4 consist of multiple combinations of enriched uranium and gadolinium filled lattices each having its own calculated maximum APLHGR (MAPLHGR) value.

Hence, these fuel bundles have multiple MAPLHGR limiting values at a given planar exposure. The MAPLHOR values for these lattices, along with the axial location of each lattice in the bundle, are considered proprietary information by General Electric and are given in Reference 3 as a function of planar average exposure.

The MAPLHGR limits referred to above are for two recirculation loop operations. For single loop operation, the limiting APLHGR value is multiplied by 0.77 for GE8x8 NB fuel. l Improved Technical Specification

Reference:

3.2.1 l 2.3 Minimum Critical Power Ratio Limits The operating limit MCPR (OLMCPR) values are a function of core thermal power, core flow, fuel bundle, scram time (t), and fuel exposure.

The scram time (t) is determined from CNS Procedure 10.9, Control Rod Scram Time evaluation. The OLMCPR values are as follows:

For core thermal power 2 25 percent and <30 percent of rated power, the OLMCPR is the power dependent MCPR (MCPRp) from Figure 7.

For core thermal power 2 30 percent of rated power, the OLMCPR is the greater of either:
