WESTINGHOUSE REVISED THERMAL DESIGN PROCEDUREINSTRUMENT UNCERTAINTY METHODOLOGY FORTURKEY POINT UNITS 3I.814INTRODUCTIONFour operating parameter uncertainties are used in the uncertainty analysis ofthe Revised Thermal Design Procedure (RTDP). These parameters are PressurizerPressure, Primary Coolant Temperature (T,„,), Reactor Power, and ReactorCoolant System Flow. They are frequently monitored and several are used forcontrol purposes. Reactor power is monitored by the performance of asecondary side heat balance (power calorimetric) once every 24 hours. RCSflow is monitored by the performance of a precision flow calorimetric at thebeginning of each cycle. The RCS Cold Leg elbow taps are evaluated againstthe precision calorimetric and used for monthly surveillance (with a smallincrease in uncertainty). Pressurizer pressure is a controlled parameter andthe uncertainty reflects the control system. T,„, is a controlled parametervia the temperature input to the rod control system and the uncertaintyreflects this control system. This report is based on the elimination of RTDBypass Loops in the design to measure hot and cold leg reactor coolant systemThe RTDP"" is used to predict the plant's DNBR design limit,temperatures.The RTDP methodology considers the uncertainties in the system operating plantparameters, fuel fabrication and nuclear and thermal parameters and includesthe use of various DNB correlations. Use of the RTDP methodology requiresthat variances in the plant operating parameters be justified. The purpose ofthe following evaluation is to define the specific Turkey Point Units 3 5 4Nuclear Plant instrument uncertainties for the four primary system operatingparameters.involved with the development of several techniques totreat instrumentation uncertainties. An early version (for D. C. Cook 2 andTrojan) used the methodology outlined in WCAP-8567 "Improved Thermal DesignProcedure","' which is based on the conservative assumption that theuncertainties can be described with uniform probability distributions.Westinghousehas beenAnother approach (for McGui re and Catawba) is based on the more realisticassumption that the uncertainties can be described with random, normal, twosided probability distributions.approach is used to substantiate the'his

acceptability of the protection system setpoints for many Westinghouse plants,e.g., D. C. Cook 2", V. C. Summer, Wolf Creek, Millstone Unit 3 and others.The second approach is now utilized for the determination of allinstrumentation errors for both RTDP parameters and protection functions.-2-
