Average Planar Linear Heat Generation Rate 1.1 Technical Specification Reference Sections 3.2.1 and 3.4.1.

1.2 Descriotion Tables 1-1 and 1-2 are used to determine the maximum average planar linear heat generation rate (MAPLHGR) limit for each fuel type. Limits listed in Tables 1-1 and 1-2 are for dual reactor recirculation loop operation.

For single reactor recirculation loop operation (SLO), the MAPLHGR limits given in Tables 1-1 and 1-2 must be multiplied by a SLO MAPLHGR multiplier. The SLO MAPLHGR multiplier for ATRIUM-93 fuel is 0.84 (Reference 3 Section 16). The SLO MAPLHGR multiplier for GE14 fuel is 0.77 (Reference 3 Section 16).

Minimum Critical Power Ratio 2.1 Technical Specification Reference Sections 2.1.1.2, 3.2.2, 3.4.1, and 3.7.7.

2.2 Description The various MCPR limits are described below.

2.2.1 Manual Flow Control MCPR Limits The operating limit MCPR (OLMCPR) is determined from either Section 2.2.1.1 or 2.2.1.2, whichever is greater at any given power and flow condition.

2.2.1.1 Power-Dependent MCPR For operation at less than 38.5% core thermal power, the OLMCPR as a function of core thermal power is shown in Table 2-4. For operation at greater than 38.5% core thermal power, the OLMCPR as a function of core thermal power is determined by multiplying the applicable EOOS condition limit shown in Table 2 1 or 2-2 by the applicable MCPR multiplier Kp given in Table 2-4.

For operation at exactly 38.5% core thermal power, the OLMCPR as a function of core thermal power is the higher of either of the two aforementioned methods evaluated at exactly 38.5% core thermal power.

2.2.1.2 Flow-Dependent MCPR Tables 2-6, 2-7, and 2-8 give the MCPRF limit as a function of flow based on the EOOS condition. The MCPRF limit determined from these tables is the flow dependent OLMCPR.

2.2.2 Automatic Flow Control MCPR Limits Operation in the automatic flow control mode is only allowed during dual recirculation loop operation.

Automatic flow control limits are only provided for Option A scram speeds.

The operating limit MCPR (OLMCPR) is determined from either section 2.2.2.1 or 2.2.2.2, whichever is greater at any given power and flow condition.

2.2.2.1 Power-Dependent MCPR For operation at less than 38.5% core thermal power, the OLMCPR as a function of core thermal power is shown in Table 2-5. For operation at greater than 38.5% core thermal power, the OLMCPR as a function of core thermal power is determined by multiplying the applicable EOOS condition limit shown in Table 2 3 by the applicable MCPR multiplier Kp given in Table 2-5. For operation at exactly 38.5% core thermal power, the OLMCPR as Quad Cities Unit 2 Cycle 17 Revision 0 2-1

a function of core thermal power is the higher of either of the two aforementioned methods evaluated at exactly 38.5% core thermal power.

2.2.2.2 Flow-Dependent MCPR Table 2-6 gives the MCPRF limit as a function of flow. The MCPRF limit determined from this table is the flow dependent OLMCPR.

2.2.3 Option A and Option B Option A and Option B refer to scram times.

Option A scram time is the Improved Technical Specification scram time.

The core average scram insertion time for 20% insertion must be less than or equal to the Technical Specification scram time to utilize Option A MCPR limits. Reload analyses performed by Global Nuclear Fuel (GNF) for cycle 17 Option A MCPR limits utilized a 20% core average insertion time of 0.900 seconds (Reference 12 Page 6).

To utilize the MCPR limits for the Option B scram time, the core average scram insertion time for 20% insertion must be less than or equal to 0.694 seconds (Reference 12 Page 6). If the core average scram insertion time does not meet the Option B criteria, but is within the Option A criteria, the appropriate MCPR value may be determined from a linear interpolation between the Option A and B limits with standard mathematical rounding to two decimal places.

2.2.4 Recirculation Pump Motor Generator Settings Cycle 17 was analyzed with a maximum core flow runout of 110%;

therefore the recirculation pump motor generator scoop tube mechanical and electrical stops must be set to maintain core flow less than 110%

(108.0 Mlb/hr) for all runout events (Reference 9 Section 15). This value is consistent with the analyses of Reference 5.

Allowed Modes of Operation (B 3.2.2, B 3.2.3, B 3.7.7)

The allowed modes of operation with combinations of equipment out-of-service (EOOS) are as described below:

OOS Option may be combined with up to 18 TIP channels OOS (provided the requirements for utilizing SUBTIP methodology are met) with all TIPS available at startup from a refuel outage, a 100°F reduction in feedwater temperature throughout the cycle (Final Feedwater Temperature Reduction or Feedwater Heaters OOS), and up to 50% of the LPRMs OOS with an LPRM calibration frequency of 2500 Effective Full Power Hours (EFPH) (2000 EFPH +25%).

2 The base case condition requires the opening profiles for the Turbine Bypass Valves provided in Reference 10 (as evaluated per Reference 11) to be met. The base case condition also supports 1 Turbine Bypass Valve OOS (TBPOOS) if the assumed opening profiles (Reference 10) for the remaining group of Turbine Bypass Valves is met. If the opening profiles are not met (with 8 or 9 operating Turbine Bypass Valves), or if more than one Turbine Bypass Valve is OOS, utilize the TBPOOS condition.

3 Coastdown operation is defined as any cycle exposure beyond the full power, all rods out condition with plant power slowly lowering to a lesser value while core flow is held constant (Reference 8 Section 4.3.1.2.8).

Up to a 15% overpower is analyzed per Reference 5.

"4 This thermal limit set conservatively implements the TCV Slow Closure limits.

5 The thermal limit sets indicated as applying to SLO (single loop operation) can be applied during dual loop operation (DLO). If the SLO set is used, then the limits are conservative relative to DLO.

6 If the Base Case (Option A or B) limit set is being used and the PLU is taken OOS for a surveillance and the surveillance is done at Ž_80% rated reactor power and Ž_80% rated reactor flow, an administrative limit of 0.89 on MFLCPR and 0.98 on FDLRX/MFPLD can be used instead of the PLUOOS SLO thermal limit set.
