25

What are the benefits of Bleed and Feed in response to inadequate Secondary Heat Sink
- Minimizes the amount the core is uncovered | - Prevents inadequate core cooling
27

28
What is the definition of a dry SG
- Any WR lvl LESS THAN 16% w/ NO feed flow
29
While in FR-H.1 "Loss of Secondary Heat Sink", IF there are LESS THAN two Pzr PORV flow paths open OR CETCs are rising what action is taken
- Initiate Bleed through RVCH vents (NSOs)
30
What is the preferred order of Secondary Heat Sink
- AFW (own unit) - AFW (opposite unit) - MFW - Condensate if 1 SG is LESS THAN 220 PSIG
31
What is the primary indication DIFFERENCE that indicates Natural Circulation is established (vs. loss of heat sink)
- Large delta T indicated Natural Circ.
32
When responding to high SG level, what action is required after NR level comes back on scale
- Evaluation is required prior to releasing steam due to the potential for residual water remaining in the steam lines
33
If you have an SI, and ECCS is IN SERVICE do you perform FR-I.1 "Response to High Pressurizer Level"
- No, you return to procedure and step in effect at Step 1 RNO
34
What is the CSFST color for ALL FR-I procedures
- YELLOW
35
While in FR-I.3 "Response to Voids in Rx Vessel", what is the purpose of checking RCS pressure LESS THAN 1725# PRIOR to raising RCS Pressure
- To condense any voids present to ensure there are no superheated hard bubbles
36
While in FR-H.1 "Loss of Secondary Heat Sink" following bleed and feed initiation, AFTER feed flow is restored given the following conditions how are feed flows controlled: - CETCs are STABLE or LOWERING - ALL SGs are dry
- Feed ONE SG at LESS THAN 50k pph | - WHEN active SG WR is GREATER THAN 17%, THEN raise FF as desired
37
While in FR-H.1 "Loss of Secondary Heat Sink" following bleed and feed initiation, AFTER feed flow is restored given the following conditions how are feed flows controlled: - CETCs are STABLE or LOWERING - At least ONE SG IS NOT dry
- Feed any SGs that ARE NOT dry as necessary to restore NR level
38
Given the following conditions which FR-C procedure is entered: - Lowest CETC GREATER THAN 1200 deg F

45
List the methods for re-establishing Core Cooling IN ORDER from MOST to LEAST effective
- Restore ECCS flow - Dump Steam from SGs - Start RCPs - Vent RCS
46
What is the major difference between FR-P.1 "Response to Imminent Pressurized Thermal Shock Condition" and FR-P.2 "Response to Anticipated Pressurized Thermal Shock" with regards to the cooldown that is performed
- FR-P.1 has a 50 deg per 60 min limitation on the cooldown | - FR-P.2 has a 100 deg per 60 min limitation on the cooldown
47
While in FR-C.1 "Response to Inadequate Core Cooling" OR FR-C.2 "Response to Degraded Core Cooling", WHY is the depressurization STOPPED at 160#
- To ISOLATE Accumulators to prevent N2 from injecting
48
While in FR-P.1 "Response to Imminent Pressurized Thermal Shock Condition" IF SI Termination Criteria ARE NOT met, what action is taken and why
- Start RCP to mix ECCS flow to minimize thermal stress on vessel

What is the Cold Leg temperature that indicates a need to enter FR-P.1
- 285 deg F
50
What is the Cold Leg temperature that indicates a need to potentially enter FR-P.2
- 315 deg F
51
Why is the ECCS termination criteria in FR-P.1 "Response to Imminent Pressurized Thermal Shock Condition" LESS restrictive than "NORMAL" termination criteria
- To limit cooldown and allow for a faster reduction in RCS pressure
52
What condition is necessary for a PTS concern to exist
- Operator error (failure to terminate SI for greater than 30 mins when conditions are met to do so)
53
While in FR-P.1 "Response to Imminent Pressurized Thermal Shock Condition", when does the clock start on the "1 hour soak"
- AFTER temperature is STABLE | - DO NOT LOWER temperature OR RAISE pressure during soak
54
While in FR-P.1 "Response to Imminent Pressurized Thermal Shock Condition", what is the cooldown limit after the 1 hour soak period
- 50 deg F in 60 mins
55
While in FR-P.1 "Response to Imminent Pressurized Thermal Shock Condition", what action is taken IF RCS pressure is LESS THAN 300#
- Check RHR flow GREATER THAN 400 gpm | - IF YES, THEN return to procedure and step in effect
56
Is a cooldown or heatup more limiting for Pressurized Thermal Shock AND why
- Cooldown | - Tensile stress on INNER WALL is additive to pressure stress
57
What is the worst case Pressurized Thermal Shock event
- SBLOCA w/ natural circ. cooldown (i.e., no RCPs running)
58
Which part of the vessel is MOST susceptible to brittle fracture
- Belt line welds
59
While in FR-P.2 "Response to Anticipated PTS Condition", what actions are taken with regards to cooldown
- No soak time is required | - IF cooldown was GREATER THAN 100 deg/60 mins, THEN restore cooldown rate to LESS THAN 100 deg/60 mins
60
What factors were considered in the development of the Pressurized Thermal Shock curve
- Pressurized Thermal Shock - LTOP - RCS Safety Valves
61
While in FR-P.2 "Response to Anticipated PTS Condition", if ECCS is in service what actions is taken AND WHY
- Return to procedure and step in effect | - There are higher priorities if SI has not been terminated prior to entering FR-P.2
