N(Z) accounts for power distribution transients encountered during normal operation. | |||
As function N(Z) is dependent on the predicted equilibrium FQ(Z) and is sensitive to the axial power distribution, it is typically generated from theactual EOC burnup distribution that can only be obtained after the shutdown of the previous cycle.The cycle-specific N(Z) function is presented in COLR Table 3.2-1.Page 10 of 22 Serial No. 13-643Docket No. 50-338COLR Table 3.2-1N1C24 Normal Operation N(Z)NODE HEIGHT(FEET)10 10.211 10.012 9.813 9.614 9.415 9.216 9.017 8.818 8.619 8.420 8.221 8.022 7.823 7.624 7.425 7.226 7.027 6.828 6.629 6.430 6.231 6.032 5.833 5.634 5.435 5.236 5.037 4.838 4.639 4.440 4.241 4.042 3.843 3.644 3.445 3.246 3.047 2.848 2.649 2.450 2.251 2.052 1.80 to 1000MWD/MTU1.1281.1281.1331.1401.1431.1441.1501.1551.1581.1591.1621.1621.1621.1601.1571.1521.1471.1451.1431.1341.1231.1181.1131.1001.0921.0921.0961.0991.1011.1021.1021.1041.1131.1271.1371.1461.1571.1701.1821.1931.2031.2131.2221000 to 3000MWD/MTU1.1391.1471.1551.1611.1661.1681.1731.1761.1771.1751.1731.1691.1641.1601.1571.1521.1471.1451.1431.1351.1231.1161.1081.0911.0791.0771.0801.0821.0861.0911.0971.1041.1121.1211.1281.1351.1441.1541.1631.1721.1801.1871.1953000 to 5000MWDIMTU1.1431.1481.1541.1611.1651.1681.1731.1761.1761.1761.1761.1751.1751.1741.1711.1671.1631.1611.1581.1501.1371.1311.1211.0981.0811.0771.0791.0791.0821.0871.0911.0961.1041.1141.1221.1291.1351.1421.1531.1641.1741.1831.1925000 to 7000MWD/MTU1.1441.1481.1521.1561.1561.1581.1701.1811.1861.1851.1861.1851.1851.1801.1731.1671.1631.1621.1621.1581.1521.1491.1421.1261.1121.1071.1091.1111.1141.1151.1151.1151.1131.1151.1241.1371.1471.1551.1581.1661.1831.1951.1977000 to 9000MWD/MTU1.1211.1281.1371.1481.1531.1571.1701.1811.1861.1851.1851.1841.1831.1841.1871.1891.1891.1901.1881.1851.1781.1751.1671.1481.1311.1221.1201.1211.1231.1211.1201.1201.1161.1151.1231.1371.1471.1551.1591.1671.1831.1951.197These decks are generated for normal operation flux maps that are typically taken at full powerARO.

N(Z) accounts for power distribution transients encountered during normal operation.
As function N(Z) is dependent on the predicted equilibrium FQ(Z) and is sensitive to the axial power distribution, it is typically generated from theactual EOC burnup distribution that can only be obtained after the shutdown of the previous cycle.The cycle-specific N(Z) function is presented in COLR Table 3.2-1.Page 10 of 22 Serial No. 13-643Docket No. 50-338COLR Table 3.2-1N1C24 Normal Operation N(Z)NODE HEIGHT(FEET)10 10.211 10.012 9.813 9.614 9.415 9.216 9.017 8.818 8.619 8.420 8.221 8.022 7.823 7.624 7.425 7.226 7.027 6.828 6.629 6.430 6.231 6.032 5.833 5.634 5.435 5.236 5.037 4.838 4.639 4.440 4.241 4.042 3.843 3.644 3.445 3.246 3.047 2.848 2.649 2.450 2.251 2.052 1.80 to 1000MWD/MTU1.1281.1281.1331.1401.1431.1441.1501.1551.1581.1591.1621.1621.1621.1601.1571.1521.1471.1451.1431.1341.1231.1181.1131.1001.0921.0921.0961.0991.1011.1021.1021.1041.1131.1271.1371.1461.1571.1701.1821.1931.2031.2131.2221000 to 3000MWD/MTU1.1391.1471.1551.1611.1661.1681.1731.1761.1771.1751.1731.1691.1641.1601.1571.1521.1471.1451.1431.1351.1231.1161.1081.0911.0791.0771.0801.0821.0861.0911.0971.1041.1121.1211.1281.1351.1441.1541.1631.1721.1801.1871.1953000 to 5000MWDIMTU1.1431.1481.1541.1611.1651.1681.1731.1761.1761.1761.1761.1751.1751.1741.1711.1671.1631.1611.1581.1501.1371.1311.1211.0981.0811.0771.0791.0791.0821.0871.0911.0961.1041.1141.1221.1291.1351.1421.1531.1641.1741.1831.1925000 to 7000MWD/MTU1.1441.1481.1521.1561.1561.1581.1701.1811.1861.1851.1861.1851.1851.1801.1731.1671.1631.1621.1621.1581.1521.1491.1421.1261.1121.1071.1091.1111.1141.1151.1151.1151.1131.1151.1241.1371.1471.1551.1581.1661.1831.1951.1977000 to 9000MWD/MTU1.1211.1281.1371.1481.1531.1571.1701.1811.1861.1851.1851.1841.1831.1841.1871.1891.1891.1901.1881.1851.1781.1751.1671.1481.1311.1221.1201.1211.1231.1211.1201.1201.1161.1151.1231.1371.1471.1551.1591.1671.1831.1951.197These decks are generated for normal operation flux maps that are typically taken at full powerARO.
