DESCRIPTION The issue was raised after the occurrence of various incidents of water hammer that involved steam generator feedrings and piping, emergency core cooling systems, RHR systems, containment spray, service water, feedwater, and steam lines. The …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue deals with a concern for the availability of adequate recirculation cooling water following a LOCA when long-term recirculation of cooling water from the PWR containment sump, or the BWR RHR system suction …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This NUREG-0471 [1] item concerned staff positions [2] BTP EISCB 18 and BTP RSB 6-11 which required physical locking out of electrical sources to specific MOVs in the ECCS. The existing staff positions established the …
1
DESCRIPTION A number of applicants for operating licenses have been performing sump tests to demonstrate ECCS operability during the recirculation phase following a postulated loss-of-coolant accident. These tests have shown that vortex formation is not …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task involves the maintenance and improvement of calculational capabilities for assessing doses to individuals from radiation and radioactive effluents from normal operation and from radioactive releases from postulated …
1
DESCRIPTION Compilation of occupational radiation exposure reports from operating reactors has shown that exposures to station and contractor personnel have generally been increasing over the past 7 years for both PWRs and BWRs. The overriding problem at …
1
DESCRIPTION This NUREG-0471 [1] task involves evaluating information from semiannual operating reports, inplant measurements program and topical reports, and revisions to models for calculating releases of radioactive materials in effluents from PWRs and …
1
DESCRIPTION The BWR pressure relief system is designed to prevent overpressurization of the reactor coolant pressure boundary (RCPB) under the most severe abnormal operational transient: closure of the main steam line isolation valves (MSIVs) with failure …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This NUREG-0471 [1] item, as presently formulated, involves the conduct of analytical and experimental work to determine whether or not destructive overspeeds could be attained and to determine if corrective actions are …
1
DESCRIPTION Offsite power system frequency decay, depending on the rate of decay, could provide an electrical brake on the reactor coolant pump motors that could slow the pumps faster than the assumed flywheel coastdown flow rates normally used in …
1
DESCRIPTION Present NRC actions taken in response to a serious incident are directed from an Incident Response Center (IRC). To implement an adequate response, it is necessary that the IRC be equipped with appropriate communications services, information …
1
DESCRIPTION Practice in health impact assessments at the time of identification of this issue was to convert radiation exposure estimates into estimates of health effects, such as cancer deaths, illness, and life shortening. However, the models that were …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background The operating experience of nuclear power plants indicates that a number of valves, valve operators, and pumps fail to operate as specified in the technical specifications either under testing conditions or when they are …
1
DESCRIPTION Historical Background This issue is identified in Appendix D of NUREG-0572 [1] and is one of the key observations made after the ACRS requested its members and consultants to make comprehensive reviews of all Licensee Event Reports (LERs) …
