~_____~- _ __ - __ __ EA1.091 CVCS IS incorrect because the initial shrink following the trip will reduce PZR level well below 45%( s incorrect because since PZR level will still be above the programmed level derived from the auctioneered Thot, charging flow will be lower due the charging system Master Flow Controller demand lowering, and driving charging flow lower. The CV71 valve will not have changed position, and backpressure to the seals will remain - the same, so seal injection flow will remain essentially constant.

IC is correct. PZR level program will lower in response to the Auct hi Tave signal creating reference setpoint lowering from full power Tave.

D is incorrect because normal letdown come from 23 loop cold lleg. The cold leg temperature will RISE following a Rc trip as SG pressure rises. The letdown ,temperature will RISE, and the Letdown HX CCW flow will need to RISE to maintain temperature. This will cause CC71 valve demand to RISE.

RHR HX inlet temperature is 11 0 degrees. The first fuel assembly has just been transferred to the Spent Fuel Pool. 11 RHR pump indications lead operators to believe it is cavitating, and the CRS orders the pump stopped.

channel failed slightly above actual pressure at beginning of transient, the MPC output will rise, since it thinks pressure is too high, and will act to deenergize heaters and open spray valves.

As actual pressure drops due to the rising spray flow, the RCS will expand into the PZR, causing PZR level to rise. This will icause charging flow to lower as PZR level rises above program. Letdown flow will lower as RCS I pressure lowers.
