Q

What is shutdown margin (SDM)?

A
  • Reactivity worth must be sufficient to completely shut down the reactor with margin for all accident conditions, assuming the most reactive rod remains fully withdrawn

Q

How is the Ctrl Rod system designed?

A
  • Maintain Tavg within 5°F of program and restore Tavg within 1°F following:
  • 10% step load change
  • 5%/min ramped load change
  • 50% step load change with steam dumps (40%)

Q

What is the Logic Cabinet urgent failures?

A
  • Loose Card
  • Oscillator
  • Slave Cycler
  • SDC circuit fail
  • Logic cabinet failures affect all rods **
17
Q

What happens if you have an urgent failure on a Logic or Pwr Cabinet?

A
  • Stops all rod motion

- De-energizes lift coil and energizes stationary and movable gripper

18
Q

During a power escalation, Control Bank C – Group 1 Rod B-8 dropped. At the time the event occurred, reactor power was 48% and Rod B-8 was fully withdrawn.

While recovering the rod per 1-OHP-4022-012-005, Attachment B, “Recovery By Positioning Single Rod,” a Rod Control Urgent Failure alarm occurred.
Which of the following explains why the alarm actuated?

a. A Multiplex Error has occurred in the Power Cabinet
b. An Oscillator Failure has occurred in the Logic Cabinet
c. A printed circuit card has been jarred loose from the Power Cabinet.
d. All Control Bank C – Group 2 rod lift coil disconnect switches are open.

A

d. All Control Bank C – Group 2 rod lift coil disconnect switches are open.

19
Q

Given the following conditions:
• Unit 1 is at 100% power
• A loss of power to CRP-3 occurs

What is the effect on the Rod Position Indication (RPI) system and the procedural action necessary, if any?

a. RPI indications are maintained since backup power supply (via ELSC) automatically energized the RPI Cabinets. Operation is allowed since RPI has been restored.
b. RPI indications are lost. Dispatch an operator to manually align backup power supply (via ELSC) to energize the RPI Cabinets. Operation is allowed since RPI has been restored.
c. RPI indications are maintained since backup power supply (via ELSC) automatically energized the RPI Cabinets. The CRP-3 power feed to RPI must be restored within 4 hours.
d. RPI indications are lost. Manually initiate a Reactor Trip and verify Reactor Trip by Wide Range power and negative start-up rate since the Rod’m Bottom Lights are NOT lit.

A
  • b. RPI indications are lost. Dispatch an operator to manually align backup power supply (via ELSC) to energize the RPI Cabinets. Operation is allowed since RPI has been restored.
20
Q

What does the Variable Gain Unit do?

A
  • Increases the output at low pwr

Given reactivity change at lower pwr has a smaller effect on pwr than at high power

21
Q

At what speed do the shutdown banks move?

A
  • 62 SPM
22
Q

At what speed do the rod ctrl banks move in auto?

A
  • 8-72 SPM
23
Q

At what speed do the rod ctrl banks move in manual?

A
  • 48 SPM
24
Q

What is Differential Rod Worth?

A
  • The change in reactivity resulting from a unit change of rod position. (pcm/step)
25
Q

What is Integral Rod Worth?

A
  • Reactivity inserted by moving a control rod from a reference position to any other rod height
26
Q

When does the Rod dropped/Rod Bottom alarm clear?

A
  • When Control Bank A gets to 20 Steps
27
Q

If MPC-253 fails low, what happens with rods in automatic?

A
  • Rods will move in on PR rate change and temp error
28
Q

What Power Input feeds into the Rod insertion limit comparator?

A
  • RCS ΔT
29
Q

1.5-3 degrees - 8 steps
3.5 degrees - 24 steps
4 degrees - 40 steps
4.5 degrees - 56 steps
5 degrees - 72 steps

A

1.5-3 degrees - 8 steps
3.5 degrees - 24 steps
4 degrees - 40 steps
4.5 degrees - 56 steps
5 degrees - 72 steps
