The proposed TS change (TS 03-16) will revise the limiting condition for operation for TS Section 3.7.9, "Ultimate Heat Sink." The maximum essential raw cooling water (ERCW) temperature limit associated with Surveillance Requirement (SR) 3.7.9.1 will be annotated with a note allowing an occasional increase from 85 degrees Fahrenheit (0F) to 880F. This proposed change is based on recent evaluations of the ERCW system and the UHS functions and maximum temperatures that will satisfy the associated safety functions. In addition, an administrative change is proposed to clarify the maximum allowable internal containment pressure. Corresponding TS Bases changes are also included for the temperature increase for UHS and the containment pressure clarification including a minor change in the maximum calculated containment pressure resulting from the increased UHS temperature. 1--~56 Pa0ted.]n ,Ededpa U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Page 2 APR 0 7 2004 TVA discussed its plans for this proposal in a meeting with NRC staff in August 2003.

  • Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States
    +44 20 8123 2220 [email protected] Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States https://marketpublishers.com/r/AC4983D1366EN.html Date: June 2012 Pages: 700 Price: US$ 450.00 (Single User License) ID: AC4983D1366EN Abstracts The global energy industry has explored many options to meet the growing energy needs of industrialized economies wherein production demands are to be met with supply of power from varied energy resources worldwide. There has been a clearer realization of the finite nature of oil resources and the ever higher pushing demand for energy. The world has yet to stabilize on the complex geopolitical undercurrents which influence the oil and gas production as well as supply strategies globally. Aruvian's R'search’s report – Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States - analyzes the scope of American energy production from varied traditional sources as well as the developing renewable energy sources. In view of understanding energy transactions, the report also studies the revenue returns for investors in various energy channels which manifest themselves in American energy demand and supply dynamics. In depth view has been provided in this report of US oil, electricity, natural gas, nuclear power, coal, wind, and hydroelectric sectors. The various geopolitical interests and intentions governing the exploitation, production, trade and supply of these resources for energy production has also been analyzed by this report in a non-partisan manner. The report starts with a descriptive base analysis of the characteristics of the global energy industry in terms of economic quantity of demand. The drivers of demand and the traditional resources which are used to fulfill this demand are explained along with the emerging mandate of nuclear energy.

  • Nrc Liaison Report
    SC-2Mtg07-2_Att#10 NRC LIAISON REPORT • STP first company to step forward in decades seeking new reactor license The application, a 200,000-page document submitted on a single DVD, was filed on September 24. The staff and STP officials met October 11 for the first public meeting since the application was filed. NRC staffers outlined several issues during the meeting, including a lack of supporting documents for at least two sections, outdated data for one section, missing figures for another and, in one instance, the absence of state emergency preparedness plans that were cross-referenced in the application. • TVA Opts For AP1000 Design Instead Of Completing Partially Finished Existing Reactors. TVA is submitting the combined operating license request nearly two decades after work stopped in 1988 toward building two similar-sized reactors at Bellefonte. TVA officials determined that finishing those reactors, which the agency started building in 1973, would be too costly." Application will be the first involving construction of a Westinghouse AP1000 advanced reactor, made by Westinghouse Electric Co., which is owned by Japan's Toshiba Corp. • Grid Security A video released last month by CNN illustrates the potential danger to the power grid, experts say. While in the past, most had imagined a cyberattack might shut down patches of the US grid for a few days at worst, But the video shows a demonstration by the Idaho National Laboratory that a large electric generator shaking violently, spraying metal parts, and spewing smoke before grinding to a stop. The method of attack used in that demonstration could be replicated to destroy more and larger equipment, several experts say.

  • 20071204-Ucs-Brief-Got-Water
    GOT WATER? Nuclear power plants are usually built next to lakes, rivers, and oceans.1 Not for the scenic views that such locales provide, but because water can absorb the waste heat produced by the plants. Nuclear power plants consume vast amounts of water during normal operation to absorb the waste heat left over after making electricity and also to cool the equipment and buildings used in generating that electricity. In event of an accident, nuclear power plants need water to remove the decay heat produced by the reactor core and also to cool the equipment and buildings used to provide the core’s heat removal. This issue brief describes the reliance of nuclear power plants on nearby bodies of water during normal operation and under accident conditions. All of the 104 nuclear reactors currently licensed to operate in the United States are light2 water reactors. Sixty-nine (69) are pressurized water reactors (PWRs) and 35 are boiling water reactors (BWRs). In a PWR, water flowing through the reactor core is In a BWR, water flowing through the reactor core is heated by its thermal energy. Because this water is heated by its thermal energy and boils. The steam flows maintained under high pressure (over 2,000 pounds per from the reactor vessel to the turbine. The steam spins the square inch), it does not boil even when heated to over turbine, which is connected to a generator that produces 500ºF. The hot water flows from the reactor vessel and electricity. The steam exits the turbine into the condenser. enters thousands of metal tubes within the steam Water from the nearby lake, river, or ocean flows through generator.
