NON-PROPRIETARY VERSION CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT CYCLE 20 REVISION RECORD-> Summary of Changes Rev. 25 Effective upon final approval Applicable for use during Cycle 20 Operation.

Revision issued to update this document for FitzPatrick Reload 19 Cycle 20 cycle dependent data.Changed MCPR Limits reporting format for = 0 and tr # 0 to Tables 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, and 8.4. Redundant information contained in Figures was removed.APLHGR Limits reporting format no longer uses figure format. Pertinent information is tabulated in Table 8. 5 LHGR Limits reporting is limited to tabulated format in Table 8.6. GNF2 Pellet exposure extended to 63.5 GWD/ST per Ref. 3.18. Redundant information contained in the exposure dependent LHGR limit figures was removed. Fig. 8. 3 rd decimal changed to 0.58 from 0.581.Two new.references added: ODYSY application to Licensing Stability calculation LTR (Ref. 3.10), and SER for Amendment 33 to GESTAR (Ref. 3.18)approving PRIME application for GNF2 thermal-mechanical limits.Update to cycle specific references.

Page re-numbering, re-formatting, tables and figures order and re-numbering triggered editorial changes all throughout this document.§7.4.1.2 note removed as no longer applicable because ARTS-MEOD fully implemented.

4.1 Average

Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate (APLHGR): The APLHGR shall be applicable to a specific planar height and is equal to the sum of the heat generation rate per unit length of fuel rod for all the fuel rods in the specified assembly at the specified height divided by the number of fuel rods in the fuel assembly at the height.4.2 Linear Heat Generation Rate (LHGR): The LHGR shall be the heat generation rate per unit length of fuel rod. It is the integral of the heat flux over the heat transfer area associated with the unit length.4.3 Minimum critical power ratio (MCPR): The MCPR shall be the smallest critical power ratio (CPR) that exists in the core for each type of fuel. The CPR is that power in the assembly that is calculated by application of the appropriate correlation(s) to cause some point in the assembly to experience boiling transition, divided by the actual assembly operating power.4.4 Rated Recirculation Flow: That drive flow which produces a core flow of 77.0 x 106 lb/hr.Rev.

Rev. No. 25 Page 24 of 25 NON-PROPRIETARY VERSION CORE OPERATING LIMITS REPORT CYCLE 20 9.0 USERS GUIDE The COLR defines thermal limits for the various operating conditions expected during the cycle. At the start of the cycle the 3D-Monicore databank limits are set for;* Cycle exposure range of BOC to MOC20* = 0* Dual recirculation pump operation* Four steam line operation, and* Normal Feedwater Temperature The following is a table that offers a check to assure the correct limits are applied when operating states or conditions change.Procedure Change in Operating State Change in Limits Reference Cycle Exposure = EOC20 -2.946 GWD/ST EN-DC-503 OLMCPR changes to EOC values at cycle See Table 8.1 for # 0 for change in transition to exposure of 11.495 GWD/ST. Databank will MCPR. EOC limits will use 11.000 GWD/ST to account for occur uncertainties, automatically Scram Time Test Results such that t 0 Use new T and see Table 8.1 8.2, RAP-7.4.1 Option BWlimits for.
