DEGB LOCA ECS power limit recommendation for the K-14.1 subcycle. Revision 1

摘要

This report documents assembly deposited power limits and the corresponding effluent temperature limits recommended for operating the K-14.1 subcycle to ensure sufficient cooling of reactor assemblies during the ECS phase of a Double Ended Guillotine Break (DEGSS) Loss of Coolant Accident (LOCA). The ECS LOCA effluent temperature limits are computed for each flowzone of the K-14.1 charge. The recommended overall DEGB LOCA ECS power limit is 1515 MW or about 63.1% of the historical full reactor power limit (assumed to be 2400-MW) for Mark 22 assemblies. The design basis accident is a break in the plenum inlet line where the AC pump motors not tripped.
