Discussion of containment cooling system inside drywell, Ref.
Figure OP-40-1.
The component cooler assemblies located in the drywell consist of drywell cooling assemblies A & B, drywell equipment sump cooler, recirculation pumps A & B motor _inding and bearing coolers, and recirculation pump A & 8 pump bearing and seal coolers.
During routine operation, Reactor Building Cooling (RBC) supplies containment cooling.
RBC is a closed system with the demineralized water system providing makeup from 3 tanks with a total capacity of 75,000 gallons. Automatic makeup to the RBC head tank from the demineralized water header is monitored by an in-line flow recorder, 15-FR-111, with makeup water requirement logged weekly on F-ST-400.
Rd' has provisions to be supplied from the Emergency Service Water (ESW) system during conditions discussed below.
If the ESW return valve from RBC is not fully shut, makeup to the RBC head tank is inter-locked shut.
During a LOCA, RBC will continue to supply containment cooling.
If RBC system pressure, as sensed on the P.BC pump discharge by 15-PS-122A-D, decreases to 40 psig, ESW pumps will automatically start and ESW supply and return valves, 46-MOV-101A & B and 15-MOV-175A
& B will open to inject raw water to RBC.
The recirculation pump and motor coolers wculd be automatically supplied by ESW.
ESW would not automatically be supplied to the drywell cooling assemblies or the equipment sump cooler because isolation valves 15-MOV-102 and 103, are normally shut.
I f 15-MOV-102,103,175A or B, or 46-MOV-101 A or B were inadvertently opened during routine operations, RBC flow to ESW would be blocked by check valves seating on the higher RBC pressure.
Therefore, RBC can be considered a closed system during routine operation, i.e., RBC supplying water fer containment cooling and cooling for equipment in the containment.
In the off-normal case, i.e., loss of RBC pressure, the recirculation pump and motor coolers would be the only components inside containment automatically supplied by ESW.
Operator action is required to supply ESW to the drywell cooler assemblies and the equipment sump cooler.
ESW is an open system taking suction from the intake structure and discharging to the normal service water discharge.
Assuming the worst case of a leak into the containment from a cooler or associated piping while ESW was supplying all components with cooling water the following methods are installed for leak detection:

Subsequent operator action is to determine why the system was lost. A leak from RBC into containment could readily be pinpointed using the above annunciators, system display and metering indication.
Technical Specification 3.6.D and Table 3 2-5 requires the drywell equipment drain sump flow integrator and the floor drain sump flow Integrators to be operable any time fuel is in the vessel and coolant temperature is >212 F.
1.
Reactor coolant leak rate inside containment shall be established once/ day utIIIzing the equipment and floor drain sump systems.
Leakage from unidentified sources shall not exceed 5 GPM and total reactor coolant system leakage shall not exceed 25 GPM.
Reference Technical Specification Section 3.6.D.1.
2.
The reactor coolant leakage detection system shall be operable during reactor operation.
From and after the time that either the equipment drain pump or floor drain pump subsystems is made or found to be inoperable for any reason, reactor operation is permitted for the succeeding seven (7) days.
From and after the time that a redundant component of either subsystem is found to be Inoperable for any reason, continued reactor operation is permissible for the succeeding thirty (30) days.
Reference Technical Specification Section 3.6.D.2.
3 In addition, unidentified leakage is monitored as required by Bulletins 74-10, 10A and 108..This monitoring would detect small leaks in the RBC system within containment.
In view of the above, JAFNPP would easily detect small volumes of leakage from the RBC system during routine reactor operation.
If ESW were used to supply RBC equipment in containment, the reactor would have been shutdown as required by F-SP-21 and leakage would still be easily detected within the Ilmits/ requirements of Technical Specification and/or Bulletins 74-10, 10A and 108.
Ib & i. Source of water chemical content, and detection of radioactive contamination.
RBC is supplied from the demineralized water header.
It is continuously monitored for conductivity (15-CIS-112), with an alarm at 5 pmhos; and radiation (17-RA-352), with gross beta and gamma Hi, Hi-HI and downscale alarms. Annunciators are on panels 9-3 and 9-6. In general, weekly samples are taken on BBC and analyzed for the following:
conductivity - 3 0 pmho/cm max 5-9 pH 500 ppb max C1 0.5 ppm max 0

ESW utilizes lake water.
It is continuously monitored for gross beta and gamma at the service water effluent.
17-RM-351 provides Hi, Hi-Hi, and downscale alarm functions annunciated on panel 9-3 ESW water typical analysis follows:
conductivity
- 300-600 pmho/cm pH
- 7 7 - 8.7 C1 65 ppm TDS
- 150 - 400 ppm An inadvertent introduction of ESW to RBCLC would be readily detected by rise in conductivity and associated annunciator.

Piping and cooler materials:
1)
RBC piping is class 151, 150# carbon steel.
2)
Drywell cooler assemblies have copper tubes SAE 75, 250# test.
3)
Drywell equipment sump cooler is 316 SS.
4)
Recirculation pump motor winding and bearing coolers have copper / nickel tubes and carbon steel headers.
5)
Recirculation pump bearing and seal coolers are 304 SS.

Provisions for isolation:
Refer to Figure OP-40-1 (enclosure 2).
For each of the 8 drywell coolers there is an inlet MOV (15-MOV-100A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, B2, 83, 84) and discharge check valves.
Failure of the MOV or a check valve would prevent Individual isolation of the associated cooler, however, manual valves (RBC-23A, B) are provided on the inlet and outlet of each drywell cooling assembly (consisting of 4 drywell

coolers).
Manual isolation of the "A" drywell cooling assembly would also isolate the cooling water supply to the drywell equipment drain sump.
The return from the drywell equipment drain sump cooler is provided with a manual valve (RBC-33).
The supply and return lines to each set of recirculation pump and motor coolers are each provided with a manual Isolation valve (RBC20A, B, and RBC-22A,B). The manual isolation valves are accessible during operation.
The manual isolation of the supply of RBC water to the drywell cooling assemblies and the recirculation pump and motor cooler would not isolate the standby (ESW) source from these components.
A manual valve (ESW-14A, B) is provided to isolate ESW from each recirculation pump and motor cooler. An MOV (15-MOV-103) Isolates ESV from the "B" drywell cooling assembly and another MOV (15-MOV-102) Isolates ESW from both the "A" drywell cooIIng assembly and the drywell equipment drain sump cooler.
Failure of these MOV's in the open position (during ESW operation and supplying loads normally carried by RBC could prevent isolation of the associated components.
These MOV's have provision for manual operation and are accessible during operation.
g.
Isolation Valve Testing:
Testing of isolation valves associated with each containment penetration is conducted at least once each operating cycle as required by 10CFR50 Appendix J and Technical Specification 4.7.A.
Ulth respect to the subject bulletin this testing involves penetrations X-23, 24, and 62 through 68 resulting in test of ESW-15A & B, ESW-16A &
B, RBC-21A & B, 22A & B, 24A & B, 26A & B and 33 These penetrations and valves are shown on enclosure 2.
Summary:
Based on the design characterisitics of the HK-1 containment and drywell sump systems at JAFNPP the probability of significant accumulations, such as those described in the subject bulletin, is very remote. Any source of leakage within the drywell will collect in the sumps. At approximately 1000 gallons, the sumps will overflow to the drywell floor (if no sump pumping capability is available).
Approximately another 10,000 gallons will collect on the drywell floor before overflowing into the Torus.
This approximately 1.2 feet of water on the drywell floor will cause problems no more serious than some wetting of the insulation on the recirculation system pump suction line.
The overflow to the Torus will cause an increase, from normal level, of approximately 1 inch /7000 gallons.
Torus water level is recorded by the operator once each shift and when level exceeds the normal range by 2.5 inches a computer alarm is initiated thus providing assurance that large accumulations of leakage would be detected promptly.
