PROBLEM/OBJECTIVE/METHOD
Verify that channel trip will occur within the Analytical Limit (AL) considering
additional instrument drift or uncertainties due to extension of the operating
cycle from 18 months 25% to 24 months 25%.
This calculation has been prepared in accordance with ISA-RP67.04, IES-3 and DCM-2.
DESIGN BASIS/ASSUMPTIONS
The low RC flow instrumentation serves to trip the reactor on a reduction in RCS
flow rate. The low flow trip protects the core from DNB following a loss of coolant
(ref. 3.2.2)
flow accident.
Seismic event is not considered coincident with any other postulated accident.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
The existing Trip Setpoint for RC Loop Low Flow is set higher than is required by
the total channel uncertainty, therefore, it is conservative. No Setpoint change
is required.
For RC Loop Low Flow trip, sufficient margin exists for the existing trip setpoint
to insure that channel trip occurs within the Analytical Limit (AL) considering
additional drift and uncertainties for the 24 month 25% operating cyC

ASSUMPTIONS
2.1
Per FSAR section 16.3.3, IP3's seismic horizontal acceleration is less than
or equal to 0.2g. WCAP-7817, "Seismic Testing of Electrical and Control
Equipment", states that the transmitter output returned to its original
pre-test condition after each seismic test (note: tests were based on a
maximum seismic test acceleration of 0.7g).
Similarly, bistables were also tested at 0.7g and results indicate that
tripping action of the bistable was not impaired. Therefore, seismic
(Ref. 3.1.9 & 3.2.5)
effect is considered negligible.
Since the issuance of WCAP-7817, various components have been replaced with
similar equipment. Therefore, seismic effect is considered negligible.
In addition, seismic event is not considered coincident with any other
accident.
3.0
2.2
Additional "margin" is not used in the calculation, since the methodology
used is inherently conservative.
2.3
Indication portion of loop is not addressed in this calculation.
2.4
The minimum ambient temperature for instrument calibrations will be 68F.
2.5
Instrument bus voltage variations do not exceed 2.0%.
2.6
No credit is taken in the Safety Analysis for operation of the Low RC Flow
Instrumentation following a LOCA/HELB. Therefore, effects of the accident
environment inside containment are not included in this calculation.

LOOP FUNCTION
The low flow reactor trip protects the core against DNB in the event of a loss of
one or two reactor coolant pumps.
(Ref. 3.2.4, page 2.3-6)
Flow transmitters are installed in the intermediate leg of each RCS loop and
serve to indicate whether a reduction in the flow rate has occurred. Each
transmitter supplies a flow indicator on panel SAF in the control room, a
computer input (CI), and low flow comparator (bistable). At 93% of normal flow
the comparator generates a low flow trip signal and an alarm on panel SAF. If
two out of three flow comparators associated with a given loop trip, then the
coincidence logic gate generates a loop low flow signal which may or may not
cause a reactor trip depending upon the current power level and whether a low
flow condition exists in any other RCS loops.

DETERMINE CHANNEL UNCERTAINTY (CU)
Total Channel Uncertainty (CU)
The total Channel Uncertainty is calculated as follows.

CU =

+ 1.0
+ 02
The methodology is
Bk
+ 1.552 + .682
Where, bias B = 0,
CU= *3.0% flow span
Converting "% flow span" to "% flow" given that the instrument loop span is
(Ref. 3.4.5)
120% flow,
CU= 3.0% flow span X (120%)
CU= 3.6% flow
The loop uncertainties are given as follows:
7.1
Process Measurement Uncertainty (PM1 )
PMA is an allowance for non-instrument .related effects. Examples of the
PMA terms used are the effect of the accuracy of the rod control system
(Tavg) on the density of the primary coolant in the cold leg elbow where
d/p transmitters are used to infer flow rate, and the accuracy of precision
flow calorimetric used to normalize the cold leg elbow tap d/p
(Ref. 3.1.20)
transmitters.
Westinghouse provides two values (in terms of % flow span) for Process
Measurement Uncertainty, PMA 1 and PMA 2 . For conservatism, these values are
combined algebraically as follows:
PM, = PMA1 + PMA, = .25 + 2.02 =
2.27% flow span (Page 19 of Ref. 3.1.19)
Values for PMA1 , PMA 2 , and PE1 were obtained from Tables 3.1-1 through 3.1-4
of Ref. 3.1.19 and reflect plant specific measurement uncertainties and
operating conditions of Indian Point 3.
7.2
Primary Element Uncertainties (PE1 )
.3% flow span
Primary Element Accuracy (PEA) is an allowance for use of a metering device
for the measurement of flow. When an elbow is used for a protection
function, the d/p transmitter used to make the measurement is normalized to
a precision flow measurement to reduce the uncertainty for the flow
coefficient for the elbow. The PEA term is then an allowance for the noisy
Ref. 3.1.20)
signal that is characteristic of use of an elbow

Primary Element uncertainty, due to installation of flow transmitters
across an elbow in the suction of the RCP, is given by Westinghouse to be
.3% of flow span. For added conservatism this value will be increased to
1.0% of flow span.

1.0% flow span
Ref 3.1.21 details that a calibrated elbow meter is just as accurate
as any other standard primary device and has a repeatability in the
-order of 0.2%. Therefore, 1.0% is conservative.
Insulation Resistance Effect (IRE)
The twelve (12) flow transmitters are located in the Containment Building
(Ref. 3.1.6 and 3.3.3). Per Assumption 2.6, accident effects are not
considered.
IRE effects are negligibly small under normal, non-accident conditions.

Please note that no bias uncertainties were identified.
Reactor Coolant flow is determined by differential pressure transmitters
connected to elbow taps. The above el uncertainty, is given in "% of AP
In order to calculate total channel uncertainty for RC flow, the el

uncertainty must be converted from "% of AP span" to "% flow".
Westinghouse provides this conversion as follows:

Where RCS flow transmitter span is 120%, and nominal flow is 100%.
In order to convert el above to "% flow span", divide both sides by
transmitter span, and multiply by 100. Therefore,
e, (% flow span) = (AP uncertainty

The flow transmitter uncertainties are given as follows:
7.4.1
Reference Accuracy (RA1 )
.5% of AP Span (Ref. 3.5.2).
Analysis of ref. 3.4.5 details that the pressure span is less than
500 inches of H20. Per Ref. 3.5.2, the corresponding Reference
Accuracy is .5% of AP span.
The Calibration Procedure Tolerance for the transmitters is shown to
be .5% of span (2mV tolerance of 400 mV span) (Ref. 3.4.5).
Therefore, either value may be used to calculate the transmitter
uncertainty.
7.4.2
Drift (DR,) - 1.2% of AP Span, per year (Ref. 3.1.15).
Given that
the drift uncertainty for a given period is a random and independent
term, and that drift varies linearly with time within any one
period, drift for-30 months (2 1/2 periods) may be calculated as
follows:
DR,

MTEI:
MTE2:
MTE3:
Pressure Gage
Precision Resistor, 10 ohms
Digital Volt Meter (DVM)
The reference standards used for calibrating M&TE have an
uncertainty (error) requirement of not more than 1/4 of the
tolerance of the equipment being calibrated (Ref. 3.4.3).
Measuring and Test Equipment shall have an accuracy greater than or
equal to that of the equipment being calibrated (Ref. 3.4.2).
Given the relative high accuracy of the M&TE, and the procedural
guidelines stated above, it is conservative to assume that:
MTEI - MTE3 - The transmitter Reference Accuracy (RA), including any
M&TE reading error, and reference standard uncertainty.
The Precision Resistor (MTE2) shall have a tolerance of 9.99 to

7.4.10 Monthly Calibration Tolerance Analysis
Please note that the flow transmitter output is monitored as part of
the monthly calibration procedure. Therefore, any additional drift
due to extension of the Operating Cycle will be evaluated on a
monthly basis.
The monthly calibration tolerance for the transmitters is lOmV
(2.5% of AP span) (Ref. 3.4.4). This procedure records actual
transmitter output at 100% flow. Therefore, this tolerance
represents the normal combined channel uncertainty for the elbow and
transmitter as seen during operation: Using values from Sec. 7.0,
this tolerance should be no greater than:

The Calibration Procedure Tolerance is given as .2 mV, ( .5%).
(Ref. 3.4.4)
Therefore, either value may be used to calculate the bistable
uncertainty.
Foxboro Bistable units with cord sets have a resistor (RMl) mounted
externally on a terminal block, as shown on the interconnecting
wiring diagram (Ref. 3.3.2). The resistor uncertainty (.1%) is
included in the specified bistable Reference Accuracy (Ref. 3.5.5).
Therefore, the uncertainty of the external resistor does not need to
be addressed separately.
The total resistance of all resistors in the
loop is within the vendors recommended "output
loop resistance operating area" for the
transmitters. Therefore, the resistors do not
introduce any additional loop uncertainty (Ref.
3.5.2).

are also series 63U bistables. Therefore, by similarity it is
acceptable to use this drift value for the bistable uncertainty.

CONCLUSION:
The existing Trip Setpoint for Reactor Coolant Loop Low Flow is set higher
than is required by the total channel uncertainty, therefore it is
conservative. No Setpoint change is required.
For RC Loop Low Flow trip, sufficient margin exists for the existing trip
