2.2 LIMITING SAFETY SYSTEM SETTINGS (Specification 2.2):

2.2.1 The Loop design flow for Reactor Coolant Flow-Low is 98,000 gpm.

Unit 2 Cycle 24 Core Operating Limits Report U2C24-0 Rev 0 Page 3 of 17 2.2.2 The Over-temperature ~T and Over-power ~T setpoint parameter values are listed below:

Over-temperature ~T Setpoint Parameter Values 11 measured reactor vessel ~T lead/lag time constant, 11 = 8 sec 12 measured reactor vessel ~T lead/lag time constant, 12 = 3 sec 13 measured reactor vessel ~ T lag time constant, 13 = 2 sec 14 measured reactor vessel average temperature lead/lag time constant, 14 = 28 sec

Nominal RCS pressure, P' = 2235 psig fi(~I) is a function of the indicated difference between top and bottom detectors of the power-range neutron ion chambers; with gains to be selected based on measured instrument response during plant startup tests such that:

(1)

For qt - qb between -70% and +8%, f1(.6.I) = 0, where qt and qb are percent RATED THERMAL POWER in the top and bottom halves of the core respectively, and qt+ qi, is total THERMAL POWER in percent of RA TED THERMAL POWER; (2)

Unit 2 Cycle 24 Core Operating Limits Report U2C24-0 2.3 SHUTDOWN MARGIN (Specification 3.1.1.1):

The SHUTDOWN MARGIN shall be:

2.3.1 Greater than 1.3% ~p for MODES 1 and 2*

• See Special Test Exception 3.10.1 2.3.2 Greater than the limits in Figure 2 for MODES 3 and 4.

2.3.3 Greater than the limits in Figure 3 for MODE 5.

2.4 MODERATOR TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (Specification 3.1.1.3):

Rev 0 Page 4 of 17 2.4.1 The BOL, ARO, MTC shall be less positive than the limits shown in Figure 4.

2.4.2 The EOL, ARO, HFP, MTC shall be less negative than--62.6 pcm/°F.

2.4.3 The 300 ppm, ARO, HFP, MTC shall be less negative than - 53.6 pcm/°F (300 ppm Surveillance Limit).

Where:

BOL stands for Beginning-of-Cycle Life, EOL stands for End-of-Cycle Life, ARO stands for All Rods Out, HFP stands for Hot Full Power (100% RA TED THERMAL POWER),

HFP vessel average temperature is 592 °F.

2.4.4 The Revised Predicted near-EOL 300 ppm MTC shall be calculated using the algorithm from the document referenced by Technical Specification 6.9.1.6.b.10:

Revised Predicted MTC = Predicted MTC + AFD Correction - 3 pcml°F If the Revised Predicted MTC is less negative than the COLR Section 2.4.3 limit and all of the benchmark data contained in the surveillance procedure are met, then an MTC measurement in accordance with S.R. 4.1.1.3b is not required.

2.5 ROD INSERTION LIMITS (Specification 3.1.3.5 and 3.1.3.6):

2.5.1 All banks shall have the same Full Out Position (FOP) of 259 steps withdrawn.

2.5.2 The Control Banks shall be limited in physical insertion as specified in Figure 5.

2.5.3 Individual Shutdown bank rods are fully withdrawn when the Bank Demand Indication is at the FOP and the Rod Group Height Limiting Condition for Operation is satisfied (T.S. 3.1.3.1).

Unit 2 Cycle 24 Core Operating Limits Report U2C24-0 Rev 0 Page 5 of 17 2.6 AXIAL FLUX DIFFERENCE (Specification 3.2.1):

2.6.1 AFD limits as required by Technical Specification 3.2.1 are determined by Constant Axial Offset Control (CAOC) Operations with an AFD target band of +5, -10%.

2.6.2 The AFD shall be maintained within the ACCEPTABLE OPERATION portion of Figure 6, as required by Technical Specifications.

2.7 HEAT FLUX HOT CHANNEL FACTOR (Specification 3.2.2):

2.7.1 p~TP = 2.55.

2.7.2 K(Z) is provided in Figure 7.

2.7.3 The Fxy limits for RA TED THERMAL POWER (FfJP) within specific core planes shall be:

2.7.3.1 2.7.3.2 2.7.3.3 Less than or equal to 2.102 for all cycle bumups for all core planes containing Bank "D" control rods, and Less than or equal to the appropriate core height-dependent value from Table 1 for all unrodded core planes.

PFxy = 0.2.

These Fxy limits were used to confirm that the heat flux hot channel factor F Q(Z) will be limited by Technical Specification 3.2.2 assuming the most-limiting axial power distributions expected to result for the insertion and removal of Control Banks C and D during operation, including the accompanying variations in the axial xenon and power distributions, as described in WCAP-8385. Therefore, these Fxy limits provide assurance that the initial conditions assumed in the LOCA analysis are met, along with the ECCS acceptance criteria of 10 CFR 50.46.

2.7.4 The Fxy limits from Section 2.7.3 above are not applicable in the following core plane regions:

2.7.4.1 2.7.4.2 2.7.4.3 Upper and lower core plane regions as presented in Table 2, and Grid plane regions as presented in Table 2, and Core plane regions within+/- 2% of core height(+/- 3.36 inches) about the bank demand position of the bank "D" control rods.

2.7.5 Core Power Distribution Measurement Uncertainty for the Heat Flux Hot Channel Factor 2.7.5.1 If the Power Distribution Monitoring System (PDMS) is operable, as defined in the Technical Requirements Manual Section 3.3.3.12, the core power distribution measurement uncertainty (UFQ) to be applied to the FQ(Z) and Fxy(Z) using the PDMS shall be calculated by:

UFQ = (1.0 + (UQ/lOO))*UE Where:

2.7.5.2 Unit 2 Cycle 24 Core Operating Limits Report U2C24-0 Rev 0 Page 6 of 17 UQ =

Uncertainty for power peaking factor as defined in Equation 5-19 from the document referenced by Technical Specification 6.9.1.6.b.11 UE = Engineering uncertainty factor of 1.03.

This uncertainty is calculated and applied automatically by the Power Distribution Monitoring System (PDMS).

If the moveable detector system is used, the core power distribution measurement uncertainty (UFQ) to be applied to the FQ(Z) and Fll.'Y(Z) shall be calculated by:

UFQ=UQu*UE Where:

UQu = Base FQ measurement uncertainty of 1.05.

UE =

Engineering uncertainty factor of 1.03.

2.8 ENTHALPY RISE HOT CHANNEL FACTOR (Specification 3.2.3):

2.8.1 FfJP = 1.62 2.8.2 PF 6H = 0.3 2.8.3 Core Power Distribution Measurement Uncertainty for the Enthalpy Rise Hot Channel Factor 2.8.3.1 2.8.3.2 If the Power Distribution Monitoring System (PDMS) is operable, as defined in the Technical Requirements Manual Section 3.3.3.12, the core power distribution measurement uncertainty (UF6H) to be applied to the F'.;,,

using the PDMS shall be the greater of:

VF.ill= 1.04 OR UFaH = 1.0 + (UaH/100)

Where:

U6H = Uncertainty for power peaking factor as defined in Equation 5-19 from the document referenced in Technical Specification 6.9.1.6.b. l 1.

This uncertainty is calculated and applied automatically by the Power Distribution Monitoring System.

If the moveable detector system is used, the core power distribution measurement uncertainty (UMH) shall be:

UFaH = 1.04

A discussion of the processes to be used to take these readings is provided in the basis for Technical Specification 3.2.5.

Includes a 1.9 °F measurement uncertainty per Reference 3.3, Page 37.

Limit not applicable during either a Thermal Power ramp in excess of 5% of RTP per minute or a Thermal Power step in excess of 10% RTP. Per Technical Specification 3.2.5 Bases, this includes a 10.7 psi measurement uncertainty as read on the QDPS display, which when added to the safety analysis limit of 2189 psig gives the COLR limit listed above.

The 10.7 psi uncertainty is bounded by the 9.6 psi averaged measurement calculated in Reference 3.4.

Includes the most limiting flow measurement uncertainty of2.8% from Reference 3.5.
