Q

When would hot leg recirc be utilized following a SBLOCA and why would it not normally be used?

A

If sub cooling was not restored use it

If sub cooling is restored concentrated boric acid in the core would not occur

Q

Under what conditions would the SI pumps not be aligned for cold leg recirc?

A

If RCS pressure is above their shutoff head

22
Q

What are the restrictions for placing hydrogen recombiners in service?

A

6 hours after event with hydrogen concentration between 0.5 and 4%

23
Q

Requirements for SI termination

A

Subcooling >40
Heat Sink
RCS Pressure stable or rising
PRZ level

24
Q

Why is RCS pressure checked after stopping a CCP during SI termination?

A

To detect a SBLOCA

25
What must you do if PRZ level cannot me maintained after establishing normal Charging in SI termination?
Realign the BIT and go to ES-1.2 Post LOCA cooldown
26
What happens during a SBLOCA that causes the core to recover after being uncovered for a period of time?
Loop seal clears
27
What are the two heat removal methods during a SBLOCA? Which one is also effective during a LBLOCA?
ECCS/Break flow and SGs | ECCS flow, SG are a heat source
28
When does natural circ stop and reflux cooling begin?
When the steam generation rate in the core exceeds the condensing capacity of the SGs
29
What is reflux cooling?
Condensed steam flows back the hot legs to the core
30
Affects of leaving the RCPs running during a SBLOCA
Increased mass loss keeping two phase mixture at the break. | Increased heat transfer until shutdown
31
Why do we trip RCPs at 1300psig?
Prior to break uncovery if done afterwards would not prevent the increased mass loss
32
What makes a SBLOCA in the cold leg worse?
Loop seal must clear before steam can be vented from the break
33
What indication is unique to a PRZ steam space break
PRZ level rising
34
When does the 1300psig RCP trip not apply?
Operator induced cooldown Following direction to start RCP SI from non power condition
35
When is PRZ level not a valid indication of RCS inventory?
When subcooling doesn't exist because of head voiding
36
Conditions that would force you to ES-1.2 from E-1 and ES-1.1?
No RHR injection Pressure lowering following stop of first CCP PRZ level cannot be maintained with normal charging RCS Pressure less than SI Pump shutoff head
37
What conditions will allow stopping an ECCS Pump during flow reduction of ES-1.2 when only PRZ level requirements are met?
Hot leg temps less than 340 F and RHR in service
38
If RCS pressure drops to just above RHR head following a LOCA can the cooldown be initiated in ES-1.2 at the first encounter?
No, cool down must remain less than 100 degrees in any 60 min period
39
In ES-1.2 why do we continue to monitor subcooling greater than 40 degrees?
To determine if ECCS flow reductions can be performed
40
What is the subcooling trend following stopping of one ECCS pump during flow reduction?
Sub cooling will lower but should remain above minimum. It will then increase due to the cooldown.
41
Preferred RCP to restart during ES-1.2? What effects spray flow?
#3 Highest DP PRZ level Coolant velocity
42
Adverse conditions from depressurizing RCS to refill the PRZ with no RCPs running?
Voiding in the head
43
Major action categories of ECA-1.1?
Attempt to restore equipment Conserve RWST Cooldown Minimum Subcooling
44
What actions are performed to minimize break flow?
Depressurize to minimum subcooling
45
What is the basis for depressurizing the SGs to 670psig in ECA-1.1?
Perform a controlled injection of accumulators to keep the core covered
46
What conditions must exists for operators to leave the loop of the first 25 steps of ECA-1.1?
RWST <11% stop and lockout RHR/CTS pumps
47
What must be performed if recirc equipment is restored in ECA-1.1?
Return to procedure step in affect
48
E-Plan classification for ECA-1.2 Loca Outside Containment?
SAE
49
How do we determine if ECA-1.2 LOCA Outside containment efforts were successful?
RCS Pressure Rising
50
How many CTS pumps are required in ECA-1.1 based on containment pressures?
<8 psig none >8 psig one >12 psig two
