Q

What is the purpose of the AFW system?

A
  • Maintain a minimum area of heat transfer in the SGs in order to prevent loss of PW through the Pzr Safety or Relief Valves
  • TDAFPs maintain tube sheet coverage of 10 feet

Q

How will the Unit 1 TDAFP FMOs to SG respond on an auto start signal of a TDAFP?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • U1 TDAFP FMOs will not move from their throttled position
19
Q

How will the Unit 2 TDAFP FMOs to SG respond on an auto start signal of a TDAFP?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • U2 TDAFP FMOs will full open if they are closed
    HOWEVER
  • They will not reposition if they are already throttled on when an auto start signal is received*
20
Q

What powers MCM-221/231 (Steam to TDAFP valve)?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • 600v AC vital bus
  • MCM-221 - 11/21A via AM-A
  • MCM-231 - 11/21D via AM-D
21
Q

What is the trip and throttle valve powered by?

22
Q

What is the TDAFP Turbine oil Cooler and Governor Oil Cooler cooled by?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • TDAFP discharge
23
Q

If you put the TDAFP ELO switch in Manual what will the valve do?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • It will stay open
24
Q

How do the TDAFP ELO fail on loss of air and ctrl power?

25
Why are the U1 TDAFP outlets to SG valves throttled (FMO-211, 221, 231, 241)?
- Prevent overfill of SGs on the event of a tube rupture
26
Where does the back up water supply to the suction of the MDAFPs come from?
- East ESW Header
27
Where does the back up water supply to the suction of the TDADPs come from?
- West ESW Header
28
What will cause an AMSAC Signal?
- FW Flow < 25% (3/4 feed flows)
29
Opening 1-FW-129 feeds what header from which pump?
- Feeds U1 2/3 SGs (East) from the U2 W MDADP
30
WHat is the T.S. Minimum for the CST and what does it provide?
- 182,000 Gal - Maintain the plant in Mode 3 for 9 hours with steam discharge to the atmosphere via PORVS with LOOP. - OR- - Capability of holding the Unit in MODE 3 for 2 hours followed by a 4 hour cooldown to RHR
31
If the Flow Retention is reset within 45 seconds of AFW Flow Conservation or TDAFP Start signal, what will happen to the AFW FMOs?
- They will re-open
32
Which SG(s) provide steam the TDAFPs?
- 2 and 3 SGs
33
What are the AFW flow retention switches powered from?
- ELSC buss (Train B) | - AFW buss (Train A)
34
What does T.S. 3.7.5D (AFW System) state?
- If 3 AFW trains inoperable in Modes 1-3 (Mode 4 when relied upon for heat removal) IMMEDIATELY - Initiate action to restore 1 AFW train to Operable status LCO 3.0.3 and other mode changes are suspended until 1 AFW train is restore to Operable status
35
What does T.S. 3.8.4D (AFW System) state?
- If Train N DC electrical power system inoperable in Modes 1-4 IMMEDIATELY - Declare the TDAFW pump inoperable
36
What are the N-Train loads?
- Trip and Throttle Valve - Test Valve - TDAFP to SG Supply valves - Auto Start circuit - Turbine Trip circuit - Electr. Overspeed circuit - ELO valve control power and solenoid - AMSAC inverter - N-Train Chargers are tripped by SSPS testing
37
How can you tell which way the TDAFP has tripped?
1. Electronic Overspeed - Overspeed will bring in both alarms. (Drop 10 and 50) Drop 50 will clear when seal in alarm is reset 2. Mechanical Overspeed - Overspeed will bring in both alarms. (Drop 10 and 50) But Drop 50 will not clear even if the seal in alarm is reset
38
What are the Safety functions of Aux Feed?
- Provides Feedwater to S/G’s when Main Feedwater Pumps are unavailable - Removes Core Residual Heat
39
How many AFW Trains are required Modes 1-3 ?
- 3 Trains
40
Is AFW required in Mode 4?
- Only when being used to supply SGs for heat removal
41
What do you do if you have all three AFW Trains Inop?
- Do NOT enter TS 3.0.3, restore 1 Train Immediately
42
When is N-Train Required?
- Modes 1-3
43
What is also declared inoperable if N-Train is declared inoperable?
- TDAFP has to be declared inop
44
What is the mission time for AFW?
- Capability of holding the Unit in MODE 3 for 2 hours followed by a 4 hour cooldown to RHR
